Style Style Small Group Tour Small groups are usually defined as between 10 and 24 travelers, often less. If you're the kind of person who enjoys more intimate experiences and personal service this is a good choice. All else being equal you will pay a premium for this style vs a larger group tour.
Private Guided Private tours give you the undivided attention of a guide, and often involve special access to sites and unique experiences not available to larger groups. This is a great option for families, couples, and small friend groups. Expect to pay a bit more for the extra service.
Self Guided Tour A travel company plans your itinerary and arranges all the logistics including lodging, local activities, and transportantion. You have the flexibility of a solo trip while still getting the convience and time savings of expert planning. Get 90% of the benefits of a tour, without a guide.
Group Tour Groups are between 25-60 people, typically ~30-40. Usually there will be many opportunities to split off and enjoy meals and excursions in smaller groups. This is the most economical way to travel, saving up to 40% versus booking the same itinerary yourself.
River Cruise These vessels are smaller than most ocean cruisers, limiting which amenties are available. Passenger counts can vary. One of the biggest advantages of a river cruise is the ability to dock at smaller ports and local villages.
Small Ship Cruise Small ship cruises usually have a max passenger count of 500. The primary purpose of these trips is to spend time off the vessel in local ports (e.g. Mediterranean) or experiencing nature (e.g Galapagos or Antarctica). Cabins can vary from budget to luxury.
Large Ship Cruise This is the "floating city" experience, with multiple ways to enjoy your vacation aboard the ship as much as on land. Ships are multiple floors, provide several activities, culinary, and shopping options. They often make fewer stops and have less time available for shore excursions.
Retreats Similar to a self guided tour but staying in one location only with activities and day outings included as a part of the stay.

Geweldige cruise, schone mooie hut, goed eten, genoeg entertaiment, vriendelijk personeel.
Ik kan eigenlijk niks negatiefs verzinnen. De excursies zijn wel prijzig en niets bijzonders. Tip: neem het 'have it all' pakket erbij. Dan heb je gratis (alcoholische)drank, cocktails etc. , 1 excursie, 1 luxe diner, wifi en je hoeft de verplichte fooien (van €15 pppd) niet te betalen (wel zelf formulier invullen hiervoor bij servicebalie) Dan kost de 'all in' nog maar € 30 pppd. Dat zijn 4 drankjes per dag, dat haal je er echt wel uit.

Wij hebben 3 weken een fantastische cruise gehad met de Zuiderdam naar Noorwegen, IJsland, Schotland. Het eten was heerlijk, onze hut prima, 2 keer per dag schoongemaakt, zeer vriendelijk personeel, en goede service aan boord. Alleen 's avonds bij het diner soms in de rij staan, werd erg ingewikkeld via de computer gekeken waar je kon zitten, terwijl er genoeg ruimte was. Dit is een verbeterpunt. En het tenderen liep soms niet vlot. Maar volgende keer weer HAL.

Wat een ongelofelijk fijne en bijzondere ervaring van onze eerste en zeker niet laatste cruise met de nieuw Statendam naar de Noorse Fjorden.
Iedereen was even vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Ze wisten je naam en namen de tijd voor je. Het eten was ongelofelijk lekker. Alles was schoon. Veel te doen op het schip, voor ieder wat wils. Wat een fantastische tijd. Zeker voor herhaling vatbaar. We werden echt in de watten gelegd en zelfs een verjaardag wordt niet overgeslagen. Top!

We just came back our cruise with HAL on Rotterdam to Norwegian Fjords and it was fantastic! This was our first time cruising with HAL after our every first cruise a few years ago with Royal Caribbean. We wanted something that wasn't like a theme park and could relax more and this definitely did. If you like to relax with a drink and listen to rock or blues music then this is definitely for you. I really enjoyed the BB Kings Blues Club (main singer was excellent!) and the trivia quizzes. Some of the itineraries of events overlapped so you had to choose what you wanted to do more but I suppose this made people spread out more across the ship so it wasn't too busy, expect for in the Lido Market (buffet). We found it hard to find a seat sometimes but you could take your food elsewhere so we did this or even took some dessert back to our room to enjoy the views as we had a lovely balcony room. We had the 'have it all' package and would recommend this if you want to have alcohol frequently. I'm not sure of the other packages as we booked this through Iglu Cruises which came as a deal. I found all the staff onboard to be very friendly, helpful and well organised. The food was really good too. We didn't eat at the main dining room often expect for the 'dressy nights' (which is a lot less dressy than what we experienced with Royal Caribbean, they are more 'formal nights' with people in tuxedos/suits/long dress). I felt as though the food was very similar, if not the same as the main dining room to the buffet (suppose it's all the same kitchens), but you would go to the main dining room more for the experience. HAL has the stigma that it's for older people but we are both 30 and felt comfortable being here. A definite decrease in the amount of children onboard compared to Royal Caribbean which was nice to relax and we did see some other young couples too. The entertainment director (who was excellent!) did mention to us during a conversation that the next week had about 300 children on board so it will just depend on time of year etc but it will be far less compared to other cruise lines aimed at families.

No complaints at all and would definitely consider HAL again for my next cruise!
