Welcome To A Vacation Without Boundaries.
Unless You're Counting Those Incredibly Tall Mountains.
Are you ready to discover your bolder self, your more adventurous self, your better self? Here are your directions. Head north to Alaska on one of the most innovative ships at sea. We'll show you the Great Land in ways that only we can. With our Alaska cruises and cruisetours, you'll get up close and personal with the continent's highest mountain and largest icefield. Why not dog-sled across a frozen tundra, or go four-wheeling through the wilderness, or simply sunbathe past glaciers? Unforgettable experiences are waiting for you when you travel to Alaska or Canada & New England with Royal Caribbean International.

Royal Caribbean Alaska, Why Not Alaska?
Welcome to the Nation of Why Not. We're a Nation afloat, one that caters to the wishes of each and every guest onboard. We are a place free from the conventions of everyday life. One where "Why not?" is a way of thinking and living. Thinking that has guided us to build ships with larger spaces and more things to do than were ever thought possible at sea. All to make your cruise experience unique. Today our cruise ships are more than just means of travel - they're destinations in themselves. Your journey starts the moment you step onboard.

Here Innovation Rules
You might ask, can a ship really be home to this many amazing features and activities? We say, "Why not?" In the Nation, you can expect the unexpected every day. Just imagine: The kids are busy mini-golfing while you're relaxing in our adults-only solarium or scaling our rock climbing wall 200 feet above the ocean. In the Nation of Why Not, we're always striving to take our onboard offerings to the next level.

See More. Do More. Be More..
Here's your passport to over 55 breathtaking Alaska and Canada & New England adventures on two ships (we also call them states). Not only can you breakfast as you sail past calving glaciers and play a game of one-on-one in the Alaskan Inside Passage, you can also chose from a wide range of cruisetours and shore excursions. Take a helicopter ride to the glaciers surrounding Juneau. Paddle up the Chena River on a riverboat. Head deep into the interior of Alaska aboard our luxurious Wilderness Express traincars. Come with us to the heart of Alaska and experience a world you'll never forget.

Royal Caribbean Cruise Line
has one of the best kids programs at sea and it's one of the reasons
more kids are sailing with Royal Caribbean Cruise Line! An Alaskan frontier theme night and a trip to the Alaska State Fair
are just a few of the fun activities planned for kids. Youth ages
3-11 years will learn about the Alaskan culture by creating Kwakiutl
Sun masks and Eskimo oil lamps as part of the Advanture Art by Crayola
program. Knowing that different ages have different interests, they've
divided this supervised program into five age groups. It's the perfect opportunity for kids to have
fun with kids their own age and for parents to grab some time alone.

Radiance of the Seas
The Radiance of the Seas has vast expanses of open space, more windows, glass elevators and more balconies than any other cruise ship in our Nation. Everywhere you look there's a breathtaking view of the sky, the sea and the latest port-of-call. You just might forget you're on a ship altogether.
From rock-climbing and basketball to miniature golf, these ships have it all. Guests can relax and enjoy a facial or massage at the Day Spa. Whether it's the Seaview Cafe for casual dining or Cascades, one of our elegant main dining rooms, eating will definitely be a satisfying experience. There are even two speciality restaurants to choose from - Chops Grille for steak and Portofino for Italian. Next, it's the nightlife. Blackjack, a game of pool on our self-leveling pool tables, or a visit to any of our nightclubs are just a few of the options. Families love the Radiance class because, as part of our Adventure Ocean Youth Program, each ship features an onboard Adventure Beach waterpark with a kids' slide and other fun activities. Public areas vary by ship.

Rhapsody of the Seas
You can sail southeast Alaska onboard Rhapsody of the Seas from Seattle, WA.
With its themed bars and lounges, casinos, theaters, swimming pools, rock climbing walls, Centrums and multiplicity of dining options, the Vision class has something to excite all guests, big and small. Adults can enjoy the relaxing surroundings of the Solariums or the state-of-the-art Fitness Center & Day Spa, while kids can check out the Adventure Ocean youth program. Both groups will enjoy the miniature-golf course on Legend of the Seas and Splendour of the Seas. Kids and kids-at-heart can test their gymnastic skills on three bungee trampolines on Enchantment of the Seas. And our youngest guests can get soaked in an interactive sprinkler area on Enchantment of the Seas. Public areas vary by ship.
