We include all meals, entertainment, port charges, and taxes in our price, so there are no surprises at checkout.


The Royal Caribbean Anthem of the Seas

Based in Sydney, Australia and refurbished just one year ago in 2025, over 4,100 cruisers can sail on this highly-rated Quantum class vessel.

Want to sip on a high-tech cocktail a bar with a robotic bartender, experience the Northstar observation capsule, do tricks on the Flowrider artificial surf wave, or fly like a bird in an indoor skydiving chamber? These activities can only be found on Royal Caribbean and are all found on the Anthem of the Seas Royal Caribbean. In addition, experience rare activities like an ice skating rink, a bumper car track, and a roller skating rink.

The Anthem of the Seas Royal Caribbean also offers a solarium, a spa, four pools, a casino, a gym, ten jacuzzis, a basketball court, and an outdoor movie theater.
