Voyager of the Seas

What makes it special: Voyager of the Seas was the first ship in Royal Caribbean's revolutionary Voyager-class when she launched in 1999, introducing the now-iconic Royal Promenade — an interior street spanning four decks with shops, cafes, and entertainment venues, a concept that transformed cruise ship design. She was the largest cruise ship in the world at her debut and pioneered features like the onboard ice rink (Studio B) and rock climbing wall that became hallmarks of the Royal Caribbean experience. Currently homeported in Sydney, she serves as Royal Caribbean's dedicated Australian market vessel, making her a rare year-round presence in the Asia-Pacific region.
