Royal Caribbean Cruises

One of the world’s biggest cruise lines and featuring some of the most spectacular cruise ships ever built, a Royal Caribbeancruise holiday will leave you with incredible memories that will last a lifetime.

This is cruising with a definite ‘wow’ factor, offering the most amazing variety of leisure, dining and entertainment options whichever of the more than 20 ships you choose.

Royal Caribbean has six different classes of ships from the more intimate Sovereign class to the impressive floating resorts that make up the huge Oasis class vessels. Each class offers a different cruise holiday experience, just take your time to find out about them and select the type that suits you best.

All Royal Caribbean holidays certainly appeal to the active guest and to those taking the family along, with superb sports facilities, fun pools and, on some ships, even surf simulators, rock-climbing walls and skating rinks, just a few of the attractions

And there’s something for all ages with the Adventure Ocean youth fun and educational programme a real market leader in fun at sea, as well as the latest innovation – fun and activities for the younger ones with their favourite Dreamworks Animation characters like Shrek, Kung Fu Panda and the Madagascar animals.

But if it’s a more peaceful, romantic and relaxing time onboard that most appeals, then there are plenty of quiet areas, pools, spas and restful lounges where you can while the days away in elegant comfort.

Royal Caribbean International’s Oasis class ships, including the Oasis of the Seas and the Allure of the Seas grabbed headlines throughout the cruise world when they were launched in 2009 and 2010 respectively. Their sheer size and sensational themed entertainment ‘neighbourhoods’ revolutionised the whole approach to cruising.

These magnificent resorts at sea are fabulous destinations in themselves with numerous theatres and show lounges, waterparks, shopping malls, cinemas and speciality restaurants – they really have to be seen to be believed.

If you’re looking for a cruise sensation that will absolutely blow you away, then one of these incredible ships is the choice for you.

But with such a large fleet, Royal Caribbean also has a range of less imposing ships with a slightly more intimate and convivial feel.

All offer high quality entertainment and activities with lavish shows, cabaret-style live music and comedy as well as games, competitions and dance classes.

Great quality dining can be enjoyed in one of the informal buffet style eateries or internationally themed bistros, or more formally in main dining rooms with your fellow guests.

There are speciality restaurants featuring cuisine from the USA, Europe and the Orient with some, depending on your choice of ship, offering a more exclusive a la carte menu experience in luxury surroundings for a small surcharge.

You can choose between fixed meal times throughout your cruise or one of Royal Caribbean’s more flexible ‘My Time’ options.

Cabin styles vary depending on which class of ship you choose but all Royal Caribbean’s accommodation is spacious, stylish and well-appointed with the facilities you’d expect from a world-leading cruise line.

As its name suggests, the Caribbean is a hallmark destination for this marvellous fleet, but with a huge range of itineraries in Europe, the Far East, Alaska and most of the hottest cruise destinations around the world there really is something for everyone.

And with some holidays departing from Southampton and other European ports, Royal Caribbean is a convenient, as well as an exciting and great value choice for British cruise guests.
