Who says a family holiday has to be all about the kids? While the young ones are off exploring onboard or having a blast at the award-winning Adventure Ocean youth programme, reconnect with your partner over dinner at one of the fleet’s world-class speciality restaurants, catch a Broadway spectacular in the Main Theatre, or get down on the dance floor to the sounds of a DJ or a talented live band.

CHILD APPROVED CARE

Craving a little grown-up time? Both Adventure Ocean and the Royal Babies & Tots programmes provide care and educational activities for kids in different age groups.

Even if you’re on a summer sailing to the tropics, pack a jumper if you plan to use the ice skating rink.

3

Luggage might not arrive in your stateroom until later. Pack a swimsuit in your carry-on so you can dive into adventure early.
