Creator's Key Takeaways

I am certainly liking the small ship experience I didn't have to fight for an elevator wait for anybody and walking through the ship there's hardly anybody here even at the cafe the first thing in the morning very nice and cozy

this is the best show I've seen on a cruise ship in 44 cruises

this was a phenomenal night and we are having the time of our life for sure

Quebec City we've never been there before together and it was beautiful seeing old Quebec

Creator's Tips & Advice

If you don't mind doing a little bit of hills and stairs, Quebec City is compact and walkable
Ask the bartenders for the Glacier Blue drink even if it's not on the menu
Book Holland America's East Coast Canada itinerary for the Breton Thunder show

It's our second day onboard Holland America's Volendam and we are in Quebec City. Join us for a wonderful morning around port, then it's formal night where we see a band called Breton Thunder that blows us away. This ship will take us on a 7-day adventure through Eastern Canada and end up in Boston. This is a ship with under 1500 passengers and the smallest in the HAL fleet. Watch for the second letter of our 'Journey to the Secret Word' feature, where we show the first of 7 letters you must unscramble to create a cruise-related word.
