Holland America Volendam Canada & New England Circle -- Two 2028 Sailings Roundtrip from Montréal | Book Now
This Holland America Volendam Canada New England cruise features two 11-night sailings of the Canada & New England Circle: Maritimes & New France itinerary aboard Volendam in 2028, both roundtrip from Montréal. Holland America's 2028 Canada and New England season features more calls to Montréal than any other cruise line, and the Volendam's midsized design allows for deep St. Lawrence River navigation that larger ships cannot match.
Why These Canada & New England cruise Sailings Stand Out
The 11-Day Canada & New England Circle: Maritimes & New France is one of Holland America's signature itineraries -- visiting five national parks and offering opportunities to explore national parks such as Jacques-Cartier National Park in Québec City, Gros Morne National Park in Newfoundland, and the Saguenay Fjord National Park.
Two very different seasonal experiences are available.
May 27, 2028 captures the region in late spring -- the St. Lawrence before peak summer crowds, Newfoundland's dramatic early-season light, and the quieter Maritime ports of late May.
August 29, 2028 offers the full summer experience -- warm days in Halifax and Charlottetown, late-summer Newfoundland, and the vivid greens of the Saguenay Fjord corridor in peak season.
Both sailings are roundtrip from Montréal, making them ideal for Canadian travellers who can board and disembark in one of the country's most celebrated cities.

Why Book Through Boarding Pass Travel
Two departure dates on the same itinerary in very different seasons, both roundtrip from Montréal, and nearly two years out -- this is exactly the kind of long-horizon booking where having a dedicated advisor makes the planning seamless.
We help you choose between the May and August departure. Late spring quietude versus peak summer warmth are genuinely different experiences on this itinerary. We walk you through what each season actually delivers in Newfoundland and the Maritimes before you decide.
We confirm CAD pricing and current promotions for both sailings. Holland America regularly offers Have It All bonus packages and anniversary sale pricing -- we check what's currently available for May 27 and August 29, 2028.
We plan your Montréal experience around embarkation. Roundtrip from Montréal means you can add pre or post-cruise nights in one of Canada's finest cities. Holland America's Taste of Montréal pre-cruise experience is available on select sailings -- we can build the full package for you.
An advocate throughout the planning process. With nearly two years before sailing, there will be questions, updates, and decisions along the way. A Boarding Pass Travel advisor who knows your booking is there for all of it.
