Nieuw Amsterdam

Explorations Cafe on deck 11 contains the ship's library and librarian who is on hand to sign books out of the library and for book discussions.

The ship's Art Gallery, located on the Lower Promenade Deck, features a range of artwork to view and purchase.

It also hosts art auctions and art history classes.

In addition to the art gallery, guests can access information on all of the ships artwork via iPods providing a self guided tour of the ship.

Whilst the ship doesn't have a specific chapel onboard, a Catholic mass is held daily which is usually in the Hudson room on deck 3 although occasionally the Queens Lounge is used.

Interdenominational services are also held each Sunday and on appropriate religious holidays.

Jewish services are held on the Sabbath eve each week and a Rabbi is on-board for high holiday season.
