Voyager of the Seas

Fabulous food, entertainment, and fun

We were very happy with the service, food, and ambiance of Voyager. Our dining room Staff were amazing and very accommodating with dietary needs. Our room attendants were always checking to make sure we had everything we needed and rooms were very clean, if a bit dated. Our kids had a blast at the kids and teens clubs and we all loved the entertainment. I was blown away by the quality of the performers. The singers, dancers, musicians, and ice dancers were all top notch. My only critiques were that oftentimes the programming was such that there was one very popular activity happening at a time on at sea days so you had to be very early to get a seat and there was not enough capacity for those that wanted to attend. Another was that the hot tubs were never hot which was especially disappointing since the weather was much colder than expected. Overall, I would absolutely recommend a sail on Voyager, especially if you have kids.

Greece Royal Caribbean what more do you need?

We really enjoyed our time in Greece and on the Voyager of the seas. Food in the main dinning hall was very good each night. We enjoyed the pizza on deck 5 when we needed a snack and the buffet was a buffet but we always found something that we liked. The ship was comfortable. It was our second time aboard and we had a balcony cabin on the six deck right above the main dinning hall. We really liked the cabin and never heard any noise from above or below. Once and a while we heard the people next to us talking but that was rare. Bed was comfy and the view from the balcony was good. The ship was pretty full capacity wise but never felt too busy unless we went to a trivia contest. Never had an issue getting into the main shows in the main theater or in the ice skating rink. The game shows were always pretty busy and very lively. The crew always made them lots of fun.

Great Food, Entertainment & Experience

Amazing food! The buffet options were plentiful and offered a variety of selections. The dining room experience was also excellent; new menu ever night! The entertainment on board was FABULOUS, we loved the musicians and the ice show! Overall the staff was amazing. Our room attendant checked on us everyday and made sure to pass on any necessary information. Leaving the boat was easy and simple. Coming back was also pretty straightforward. We gave ourselves enough time to ensure we would make it. They always had at minimum two people scanning guests back in so it was never a big wait. This was my first time sailing with Royal Caribbean and it wont be my last! Experiencing the beauty of Greece and Turkey was a dream come true! And I got to do it from the comfort of this incredible cruise ship. I only wish we could have had a bit more time at some of the ports but it’s alright, I saw everything I needed to see.

Good ship with a GREAT crew!

This was our first time on Royal and in the Mediterranean so was unsure exactly what to expect. My husband and I were both very happy with our cruise and would do it again without question. Embarkation: It took all of 10 minutes from the time we arrived at the Port in Ravenna until we were on the ship. We quickly did our muster and had lunch at the buffet. It couldn't have been any easier or stress free. Cabin: We had a balcony cabin on deck 11 and were extremely happy with it. While it wasn't luxurious, it was clean and offered more than enough room and storage for the two of us. The bed was comfortable and we both slept well. The balcony was quite large. It was a perfect location for us. Ship overall: We loved it. It is older but we loved the mix of the somewhat smaller size but it still had lots of activities. It never felt crowded except on the main pool deck at times. Something we particularly prized was the Adults Only Solarium pool area. It had a pool and two HUGE hot tubs under cover as well as it's own bar (attended by a fantastic bartender named Jose). It was so nice to have the choice of the raucous activity at the main pool or the quiet of the Solarium. It was a bit cool during our cruise so the hot tubs were great and you could always find space and available loungers. Note: We never had to wait long for an elevator regardless of time. Dining: As we were travelling with friends and had MyTime dining, I went the first day to make reservations at 7:30 for our group of 5 for the week. This worked for the first day but day's after, this was something of a fiasco. We requested our server from the first day and were told this was fine and that we could just walk in without waiting in line. Sometimes there were people at our table already. Our waiter realized the issue though and made sure it was corrected. He (Suresh) was amazing! The food was good to very good and always hot. We ate breakfast usually at the buffet which was fine. We did eat at Chops one night and it was delicious with great service. Excursions: Our only gripe with RCCL was that we booked the same excursions as our friends and our reservations were linked. For Rome, we had the same excursion but were assigned to two different buses. We asked if this could be changed and were told it couldn't because the tour operator had to do specific names for the Vatican. Aside from that, we enjoyed each of our excursions very much. Disembarkation: As with Embarkation, it was really easy. 15 minutes from being off the ship to being in a taxi to our hotel. Word of warning though, those who came off the ship later than us, had a difficult time getting a cab as there just weren't enough and it was pouring rain. I'd advise booking a transfer in advance to avoid that potential problem if disembarking in Barcelona. Fortunately, we didn't experience this ourselves. Summary: We really like Voyager of the Seas and truly loved her crew. They were awesome and couldn't do enough to try to make our cruise everything we wanted it to be. They succeeded.
