The best part? Many of these cruise experiences are included in your travel fare. With so many included onboard cruise activities to choose from, it helps to have a game plan before you set foot on the ship.

Voyager of the Seas is packed full of amenities, including thrilling activities, exciting entertainment, casual to high-end dining experiences and opportunities to relax and rejuvenate. From splashing around in one of three swimming pools and racing down high-speed waterslides to fun, family bonding activities like mini golf and Laser Tag, you’ll be ready to unwind with the exceptional onboard entertainment by nightfall.
What makes Voyager of the Seas unique is that it was the first in the Royal Caribbean fleet to introduce Studio B, the first ice-skating rink at sea, a Rock Climbing Wall and the Royal Promenade, a boulevard for shopping and dining. Even better, all of these activities and more are included in your cruise fare.
Voyager of the Seas includes three pools and multiple whirlpools. You’ll find two outdoor pools located on Deck 11 and one adults-only pool in the Solarium. There are multiple bars and dining options located nearby for convenient access to snacks and refreshments. Plus, let’s not forget the loungers for relaxing in the sun.
On Deck 13, near the sports courts, you can enjoy the Perfect Storm dual racer waterslide and the FlowRider surf simulator as fun water activities during your cruise.
The FlowRider is a Royal Caribbean mainstay that’s been wowing guests as one of the top things to do on Voyager of the Seas since it debuted in 2006 on board Freedom of the Seas®. You’ll now find it on many of the cruise line’s top-rated ships, including the Amplified Voyager of the Seas. This incredible surf simulator funnels 30,000 gallons of rushing water to create the perfect swells all day.
Grab a board and try to carve like a pro or hit the surf boogie-style while friends and family watch on from the stadium seating. Tame the waves as many times as you like — the FlowRider is totally complimentary to cruise guests.
Another Royal Caribbean staple, the 40-foot Rock Climbing Wall on Deck 13 is a fun and free way to work some physical fitness and adventure into your next cruise getaway. If you’re up for the challenge, strap into a harness and test your tolerance for heights as you try to make it to the top. Those who go all the way are treated to some of the best views on the cruise ship.
Adventure-seekers as young as six can participate in this included onboard activity, and reservations aren’t required. Hit the Rock Climbing Wall early while the weather’s still cool for an easy, breezy climb or closer to sunset for the most incredible vistas.
Royal Caribbean was the very first cruise line to introduce glow-in-the-dark laser tag. Since then, it’s been a knockout hit on every ship that has debuted it, including the Amplified Voyager of the Seas.
Here’s the scenario: The remnant of a robot civilization and an alien scouting party are battling it out to claim dominion over Planet Z, the last viable haven in the galaxy. Choose a team, gear up and go head-to-head with your opponents in this complimentary family-friendly onboard activity. Play as many times as you like — just make sure you reserve your slots via the Cruise Planner app or on board at the box office.
The secret to a perfect afternoon at sea is simple — play a few rounds on the cruise ship’s mini golf green after a day filled with onboard thrills or sun-soaked relaxation. Grab a club, line up your shots and putt your way across a fun, open-air course where you’re constantly surrounded by captivating ocean views.
Tee off against your friends or family members, or work on leveling up your game solo. There’s no need to make a reservation to enjoy the green, and playing is included in your cruise fare.
In between rock climbing, mini golf rounds, surf sessions and glow-in-the-dark laser tag quests, you’re bound to work up an appetite. If you’re looking for quick, casual and delicious eats, Café Promenade is the spot.
Located at the heart of the ship on Deck 5 and open 24 hours a day, it serves up a rotating selection of crowd-pleasing snacks, finger foods and beverages. Think flaky pastries and perfectly roasted coffee in the morning, then flavorful antipasti, New Orleans-style muffulettas, fresh-pressed paninis and decadent desserts throughout the rest of the day and night.
It’s hands down one of the best free dining options on board the Amplified Voyager of the Seas, and the late-night snack stop.
If you’re craving something a little more substantial, there’s the iconic Windjammer, located on Deck 11. Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, this Royal Caribbean staple whisks guests away on a cross-continental culinary journey that spans multiple food stations, each spotlighting a different cuisine or cooking style.
In the morning, fuel up on fluffy omelets crafted your way, crispy buttermilk fried chicken and aromatic eggs bhurji. As the day winds on, taste your way from Mexico to Mongolia and from Santorini to Seoul with an array of authentic global fare curated and cooked by the ship’s talented team of master chefs.
Reservations aren’t needed at Windjammer — simply walk in any time you like and savor the complimentary flavor fest.
The Amplified Voyager of the Seas lives up to its reputation for having stellar entertainment. Keep the good vibes going strong long after the sun sets with Broadway-inspired original productions like Rhythm & Vine or Music in Pictures, a dazzling on-stage spectacular set to scores from all your favorite classic movies.
You can also sit in for one of the ship’s awe-inspiring ice-skating shows — each is sure to keep you on the edge of your seat with deck-defying spins, jumps and stunts. All shows on board Voyager of the Seas are complimentary to cruise guests — just reserve your seats ahead of time via the Cruise Planner app or at the box office.
Movie nights on the pool deck are among the best free things to do on boar Voyager of the Seas, especially if you’re in the mood for a low-key night outdoors. Grab a blanket and munch on some popcorn as you kick back and enjoy a rotating selection of popular featured films on the giant projector screen by the pool.
Add the cool brush of sea breezes, the soft sound of the waves churning all around you and the glimmer of stars filling the night sky above, and you have the recipe for a perfect evening.
