Creator's Key Takeaways

I spent 7 days on a solo Iceland cruise with Holland America Line… and it was an experience I’ll never forget!

It's just perfect. So, let me tell you what I've been up to these past few hours.

I am really, really missing the kids and husband and dogs and everybody else. But yes, if you're thinking of a solo cruise, definitely Iceland and definitely Holland America Line.

Food was 10 out of 10. And then we went to watch a magician in the theater and he was really good as well.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Try the solo travelers meetup to make friends.
Use the request card in your cabin for any extra needs.
Explore the ship's activities and don't be afraid to try new things.
If you're vegan, ask for the vegan menu in the main dining room.
