Cruises are known for their luxury and indulgence, but is there a way for you to increase the service which you are offered? 

Of course there is! When it comes to getting the best possible cruise experience Virgin Holidays Cruises offer a fantastic range which include some of the most extravagant and indulgent cruise experiences. One example of this is Royal Caribbean cruises. These offer passengers a choice of over twenty different ships with access to over one hundred and sixty destinations, so where do you start?

What is Available?

Royal Caribbean cruises offer an incredibly vast selection of onboard activities to keep all the family entertained. These can include services such as onboard surf parks, rock climbing walls, ice skating rinks, sports courts, swimming pools, golf and mini-golf facilities, fitness centres and much more.

Along with these great leisure activities, the cruises will also ensure that entertainment is provided for your evenings. Karaoke and talent shows are popular with younger children whilst other events, such as teen only nightclubs, are targeted towards older children.

There is also plenty to do for adults and most of the evening entertainment will be included in the overall price of the cruise. Piano bars, professional ice skating shows and live music or comedy are just some examples of the great options available onboard Royal Caribbean cruises.

The best thing about Royal Caribbean cruises is that they don’t just offer a range of activities onboard the cruise, but they offer them off-board as well. These can include things such as parasailing, white water rafting and even sea cave kayaking, ensuring you make the most of your holiday.

What Types of Cruise Ships are There?

Royal Caribbean cruises offer a range of twenty three different cruise ships or liners. 

Allure of the Seas is one such liner which includes 2,700 cabins accommodating 5,400 guests. With a large crew of 2,165 people this liner made her maiden voyage just a few years ago in November 2010. There are seven different areas onboard the Allure of the Seas and top facilities include an adults-only Solarium, an Aqua Park, Central Parks gardens and a lively and vibrant nightlife.

Another fantastic cruise liner within the Royal Caribbean range is that of Oasis of the Seas. This exceptional liner took its maiden voyage in 2009 and is based on a ‘neighbourhood’ concept. This means that each area of the ship is given its own unique and distinct placing, allowing it to develop its own atmosphere. A Youth Zone offers younger passengers a great range of activities and even has a staffed nursery for smaller children and babies. The Royal Promenade is perhaps one of the liners best features, offering a great range of shops and eateries for passengers to enjoy.

The vast range of cruise ships available within the Royal Caribbean cruise range means that passengers are immersed in height of luxury wherever they go, giving them a varied selection of experiences to enjoy.
