Holland America Offers Journey To Seven New Wonders
Friday, July 13th, 2007
While some of the classical seven wonders of the world have been lost to the sands of time, Holland America Cruises is offering you the chance to enjoy the newly-voted modern seven wonders via its cruise holiday itineraries.
Passengers on various trips can take in the delights of the Great Wall of China; Petra, Jordan; the Statue of Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil; Machu Picchu, Peru; the Mayan ruins of Chichen Itza, Mexico; the Colosseum in Rome, Italy; and the Taj Mahal in Agra, India.
The company also offers cruise breaks that take in remaining ancient wonder, the Pyramids of Giza.
Richard D Meadows, executive vice president, marketing, sales and guest services at Holland America Cruises, said: "Cruising opens up new horizons to travellers.
"As the world’s leading premium cruise line, we explore destinations off the beaten path and are constantly striving to develop new, intriguing itineraries."
He added that the company is an innovative firm responsible for offering holidaymakers unique trips, noting that Holland America Cruises was the first firm to offer passengers trips to Antarctica.
In April 2007, the company reported a historic event when its ms Amsterdam and ms Prinsendam met in Dubrovnik, Croatia - the first time in the firm’s history that its ships on Grand Voyages have crossed paths at a port of call.
