It saves money, is worry-free, labor-saving, and time-saving. The key point is that it is also fun! Just imagine, who wouldn’t like such a travel mode? And what are the must-play, must-eat, and must-experience entertainment items on a cruise ship? Ding ding ding, please look down. Here, YoYo presents an extremely detailed must-play guide. Get it quickly. Only love and delicious food cannot be let down. First of all, let’s talk about delicious food. This is an indispensable part of tourism. For example, on the Voyager of the Seas cruise ship, there are nearly 20 dining places and services. There are four paid restaurants: Giovanni’s Italian Restaurant, Steakhouse Grill, Johnny Rockets American Diner, Izumi Japanese Restaurant. There are also four free restaurants: Sapphire Main Dining Room, Windjammer Café, Royal Promenade Café, and Boardwalk Dog House. The paid restaurants are very cost-effective. For example, the lunch at Giovanni’s Italian Restaurant is 15 US dollars per person, and the dinner is 35 US dollars per person. The carefully selected ingredients and more than 300 international chefs will definitely give you an extraordinary experience on the tip of your tongue. Moreover, many restaurants cover different cuisines. Whether it’s American Western food, Japanese cuisine, or Chinese cuisine, there are all of them. With so many choices, people with different tastes can be fully satisfied. For foodies, they definitely want to check in at each one. In addition to delicious food, there are also eight bars with different themes on the ship. At night, when the night is at its most beautiful, it is also a great pleasure for a few friends to go to the bar, drink a little wine, and talk about life while listening to music. For those who love shopping, they have definitely come to the right place, because the Royal Promenade on the fifth deck of the ship is a shopping paradise. On this 120-meter shopping street, there are nearly 185 duty-free products, including clothing, shoes, bags, perfumes, watches, accessories, and various big brands that are dazzling and overwhelming. Just buy to your heart’s content! What other performances and entertainments are worth paying attention to? Ding ding ding ding~ The mystery is revealed~ The ice show staged in Studio B is one of the most watched performances on the cruise ship. The temperature of the all-ice stage needs to be controlled at minus 14 degrees all year round, while the indoor temperature is maintained at around 18-20 degrees all year round.不得不说这样的技术真的是厉害呀。
On this stage, we can enjoy numerous incredibly wonderful and spectacular ice performances. The Coral Grand Theater is a super large performance venue that can accommodate 1350 people, with a three-story overhead design that allows for the best viewing experience from any seat. Here, we can witness Broadway-style song and dance, as well as classic performances like ‘Picturesque Melodies’ and ‘Crazy Island’, each of which is astonishing and deserves applause. The DreamWorks parade is an interactive performance highly anticipated by children, with characters dressed in bizarre costumes making appearances to the sound of music. Following are The Lion King and Kung Fu Panda, during which children can get up close and personal with DreamWorks characters. It’s like stepping into a fairy tale scene, and you can also interact and take photos with them as a memento. Additionally, various guest performances, bands, and singing acts at different lounges and cafes are also not to be missed, with each performance being worth looking forward to. At such times, one wishes they could be in multiple places at once. The cruise ship is equipped with many family-friendly activities that are sure to keep children entertained from the moment they board. For example, the newly designed and renovated ‘Ocean Adventure Youth Center’ is an exclusive entertainment park for guests under 18 years old, offering entertainment facilities suitable for all age groups from a few months to 18 years old. Of course, in addition to entertainment, there are opportunities to learn different knowledge points, combining education with fun, which is what every parent would like to see. A recreational facility that can further promote more interaction between parents and children is the Z-Planet Laser Duel. In this night-time competitive event, who ultimately wins is not the most important thing; the focus is on every moment that parents are by their children’s side, which are some of the most unforgettable experiences of growth. To cultivate children’s hands-on abilities, they can try making cup cakes. Nowadays, children do not worry about food and clothing, so they do not understand how hard it is to come by food. Through the process of making it themselves, they can also learn to cherish the fruits of labor and the food they eat. Everyone can also share happy family time amidst the hustle and bustle, feeling the taste of happiness, and the cakes they make by themselves will certainly taste even better. Speaking of entertainment, the new ‘Perfect Storm’ water slide is a water sport that must be tried. The thrilling and exciting water slide is built on the 13th floor of the cruise ship. When you leap down, with the impact of gravity and water waves, you twist and turn through the winding slide, like a fish swimming in the ocean, sliding down from the highest point in an instant, offering a super extraordinary experience.

In addition, on the 13th floor, there are deck surfing and rock climbing at sea. These are games for the brave and explorers. Standing on a surfboard and leaping up against the waves, letting the waves splash on your body and experiencing the thrill of fighting with the waves again and again. Rock climbing at sea is an upward climbing sport. With the sea at your back and reaching straight up to the higher blue sky, there will also be professional coaches accompanying you during the climbing process, so there is no need to worry at all. There is a swimming pool on the deck where you can swim freely. With blue sky and white clouds overhead, swimming in the sea like a fish is extremely refreshing and makes people forget all their troubles. Sea basketball sounds very attractive, right? Serve, dribble, pass, steal, and scramble. Start a sea basketball competition in the fierce battle and end in a sweat. On the 13th floor, there is also a mini golf course. Here, you can also experience this noble sport. For people who have a fitness habit, there is no need to worry at all. The fitness center on the 12th floor of the cruise ship has many equipment that can fully meet your needs. What is most delightful is that a row of treadmills is arranged facing the sea. Running facing the sea will be more motivating. Have you never tried such a special fitness experience? In addition, if you want to experience a real-life version of ‘Frozen’ at sea, you can go to the real ice skating rink on the 3rd floor to experience this entertainment project and try the feeling of dancing on the ice. It should be noted that when skating on real ice, you need to wear socks and long pants. For women, having a beautiful SPA is the most comfortable. The upgraded SPA center will also bring a new experience. Smelling the fragrant essential oils and listening to soothing music, the gentle fingertips seem to have magic to soothe your spirit and every inch of your skin, and the whole body and mind are thus maximally relaxed. Friends who like reading can go to the library on the 8th floor and roam in the ocean of knowledge, feeling the quiet flow of time in the beautiful words. In addition, there is an Internet cafe in the library where you can surf the Internet. The Internet speed on the cruise ship is also extremely fast. There is no problem in handling emails, conducting work exchanges, and querying information. In addition to reading, you can also watch an outdoor movie with the people around you and feel the wonderful fun of movies at sea. By the way, there is also a chess and card room. With so many leisure and entertainment options, it’s really hard to be in two places at once. I want to play all of them. Having said so much, you must be curious if there is really such a great experience, right? Hehe, of course there is. The Voyager of the Seas cruise ship is one of the top ten cruise ships in the world and also the first of Royal Caribbean’s ‘Eagle’ class luxury cruise ships. It has a pivotal position in the cruise ship industry and can be called a mobile five-star hotel.
Boasting a gross tonnage of 138,000 tons and a capacity to accommodate over 4000 passengers, this colossal vessel features innovative amenities that are highly favored by consumers. The Royal Promenade, stretching hundreds of meters and spanning four decks, along with the spectacular ice shows at Studio B, are among the highlights. After a recent upgrade, the ship now offers eight brand new attractions and 22 enhanced facilities, including the ‘Perfect Storm’ water slides, the ‘Z-Planet Battle’ themed laser tag game, a redesigned ‘Adventure Ocean Youth Center’, and a ‘Spa and Fitness Center’. Additionally, suite guests have exclusive access to indoor and outdoor lounges. All guests can still enjoy activities such as deck surfing, rock climbing, mini-golf, basketball courts, and numerous dining options on board, as well as the joy of shopping on the Royal Promenade. There are a total of 1713 rooms available in various styles, catering to over 4000 people, with suites, balcony rooms, ocean view rooms, and interior rooms. The suites offer very spacious areas with private balconies and high-end amenities such as sofas, TVs, bathtubs, desks, and bars, truly reflecting royal elegance. Balcony rooms feature floor-to-ceiling windows that lead to private balconies, allowing guests to enjoy a view of the sea, feel the sea breeze, and listen to the sound of the waves, savoring every moment of relaxation. Ocean view rooms have a window in the cabin, and by drawing the curtains, guests can immediately see the cruise scenery outside, truly rooms with a view. Interior rooms, though relatively smaller, are well-equipped with all necessary facilities, and their advantage lies in their more affordable price. In summary, room types can be flexibly chosen based on personal preferences, budget, and number of people. Now, we await the return of the Voyager of the Seas to Shanghai in the summer of 2020, with a series of classic routes of 4-5 nights to Fukuoka, Nagasaki, Kumamoto, and Kagoshima in Japan.
