The ship · Eurodam
The Eurodam belongs to the Vista class of Holland America Line and is one of the shipping company's multi-award-winning ships - a rather classic, dignified cruise experience without water slides and riots.
The Eurodam gets queer relevance through charter trips by two very different operators: Olivia takes over the ship for lesbian-only cruises with its own entertainment program, while Atlantis Events charters it for classic gay cruises with a party focus. Both formats take place at different times, never at the same time.
Outside of these charter weeks, the Eurodam sails as a regular Holland America ship with a mixed audience. If you are looking for a pure charter experience, you should look specifically for the dates of Olivia or Atlantis Events instead of booking a normal route.
Frequently asked questions
How does an LGBT cruise differ from a regular one?
As a rule the entire ship is chartered — a 100% queer crowd with its own programme of DJs, drag shows and themed parties.
What is usually included?
Cabin, full board, entertainment and pool are mostly included. Premium drinks, spa and shore excursions are usually charged separately.
Is the trip suitable for solo travellers?
Yes — the solo share is high on many trips, and there are often dedicated solo meet-ups on board.
What are the cancellation terms?
That depends on the operator. You will find the exact deadlines and conditions directly with the provider.
What about safety when docking in restrictive countries?
The operators are careful about route choices. At controversial ports, shore excursions are curated thoughtfully.
