Voyager of the Seas

I had the pleasure of looking around the Voyager of the seas in late November when she was in port

in Melbourne.

The Voyager of the Seas is the largest of Royal Caribbeans 3 ships that are based down in our waters for the Australian Summer. She is 138,000 tonnes and can carry 3114 passengers. The ships facilities are spread out over 15 decks including the unique Promenade level! Alot of the facilities and activities on this ship are the same as you would see on Royal Caribbeans Allure and Oasis of the Seas mega liners based out of Fort Lauderdale in the USA and have been introduced to the Voyager due to the success on these ships.

The standout features of this ship certainly come about due to her sheer size and definitely cater towards the adventurous at heart! I have listed some information below about these unique features below.

Rock Climbing Wall

The Rock Climbing wall is located on the top level, it rises 12 metres above deck and is mounted on the ships funnel. You will have unparalleled 180 degree views of the sea and surrounds down below! Whether it's your first time on a rock wall or you're a seasoned climber, there are challenges for all levels of experience. All equipment, including shoes, helmets and harnesses are all provided and included in your Cruise fare.

Ice Skating Rink

Amazing Ice Skating shows are held nightly in Studio B - the worlds only Ice rink at sea! The shows are done by a cast of professional Skaters that amaze with Jumps, lifts and spins - these shows are a must see!

When the professionals are not practicing or putting on one of their shows the rink is open for guests to skate on.There's no charge to use the rink, no reservations necessary and all levels of skating are welcome – they will even 
provide the skates. 

Mini Golf Course

Hit the links on the high seas on the 9 hole mini golf course! Located on Deck 14. Refine your mini-golf game on a green that overlooks the ocean! Included in your fare and no reservations are required

Sports Court

The sports court itself can be used as a basketball, volleyball, or a paddle ball court. Whether it's a game of one-on-one or an all-out tournament to fuel your competitive fire, the sports court is just the spot to bring out your competitive sporting spirit.

In line Skating Track

Gear up and let the good times roll at the in line skating track, where a smooth course and padded barriers let you zip around the sports deck. The in line track weaves around on deck, so you get a scenic view and some maneuvering challenges.

Dream works Experience

The Dream works Experience offers exclusive special events and parades, interactive character breakfasts in the main dining room, and photo opportunities with characters  from “Madagascar”, “Shrek”, “Kung Fu Panda” and “Puss in Boots”  

Promenade Deck

Along with these unique features you have 14 Bars , clubs and Lounges to choose from - including the traditional English Pub the Pig and Whistle and the impressive Vault Nightclub.

Dining options range from the 3 Level Main dining room and the Windjammer Cafe Buffet all included in your Cruise fare to Portofino Italian Restaurant and the ever popular Johnny Rockets which attract a small surcharge to dine at.

If you have ever gazed at the amazement of Royal Caribbeans Oasis Class ships then this is definitely the ship for you in our part of the world!
