Holland America Noordam Asia Cruise: Embarkation Day Surprises in Singapore!

It's embarkation day in Singapore as we join Holland America Noordam for our cruise around Asia. After our fabulous stay at the Pan Pacific Hotel we head to the port, that new cruise feeling is fabulous! We have mixed emotions about the embarkation process, find our aft balcony cabin and start exploring the ship. We experience a strange system with the bar service, we have a fun sailaway that sadly gets spoilt, we have our first dining experiences, then something unexpected happens! We spent 15 nights on Holland America Noordam in February 2025, cruising around Asia. Ports included Singapore - Koh Samui Thailand, Laem Chabang Thailand, Sihanoukville Cambodia, Phu My Vietnam, Da Nang Vietnam, Halong Bay Vietnam and Hong Kong.
