Wonder of the Seas from Royal Caribbean : Everything you need to know

The Wonder of the Seas, the newest ship of the "Oasis" class, will be one of the largest cruise ships in the world. In the variously designed areas of the ship, the so-called Neighborhoods, there is a huge leisure and entertainment offer. Wellness and sports facilities are also very important on board, so that the right cruise for every guest is possible. The "Central Park" with more than 12,000 plants and the "Royal Promenade" with its carousel and different restaurants make the Wonder of the Seas an ideal mix of floating city and amusement park.
