maryjnsteve Posted August 10, 2017 #1 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Looking for information on the Noordam, as we will be cruising New Zealand and Australia, then staying a few days in Sydney. Questions - Does the Noordam have coin operated laundry facilities? I know they offer a daily laundry service$$$. Do I need need an adapter for our charges? Especially when we are staying in Sydney. Do I need a converter for our chargers? What does Noordam offer for evening entertainment for a 15 day cruise? Can we bring a case of pop/soda or bottle water at embarkation? Thank you!

MargoK Posted August 10, 2017 #2 Share Posted August 10, 2017 Hi Mary Can I suggest you ask these questions on the Holland American board as there will be more people who have sailed on the Noordam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tompaddyelle Posted August 11, 2017 #3 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I was on the Noordam last year. The power outlets were US ones if that is of any help. There are no coin operated laundry facilities, we had to send our laundry out and I'm not sure how much it cost. The evening entertainment is very lacking. The usual shows and cabaret style acts. I find that you sail on HAL for the ports not the ship or for entertainment. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ship has Euro and US sockets. If your stuff is US there should be no problem. On shore you will need AUS adapters. Most modern chargers allow universal voltages, but to be sure you should read the fine print on them to make sure that they will take 220 volts. Entertainment onboard is pretty standard. The usual musicals, comedians, jugglers etc. Not any worse than other ships, but not better. There was a quite good jazz bar late at night. I took a 24 pack of Pepsi cans on board and nobody blinked.
