O, The Oprah Magazine Adventure Cruise, will be back next year following a “tremendous” first journey.
Holland America Line and O, The Oprah Magazine, Share the Adventure Cruise set sail from Seattle to Alaska on July 15, bringing together some of the world’s foremost visionaries for a week of O-mazing talks and activities aboard ms Eurodam.
Oprah herself caught up with the ship in Juneau, where she went shopping, hiked the Mt. Roberts Trail and sampled an Alaska brew. She spent the day tweeting about her “amazing time” in Alaska.
Orlando Ashford, president of Holland America Line, greeted the star aboard the ship.
“The first cruise in our partnership with O, The Oprah Magazine, was tremendous; the energy and inspirational atmosphere on Eurodam was felt by all and truly something special,” said Ashford. “The incredible caliber of talent and performances on the Share the Adventure cruise exceeded expectations, and we leave this week with a lifetime of memories and lessons on how to live your best life.”
Oprah toured Glacier Bay before flying off in Sitka.
Onboard the Eurodam, guests took part in morning meditation with yoga instructor Sara Ivanhoe and explored eating well with Impatient Foodie founder Elettra Wiedemann.
