Creator's Key Takeaways

one thing that I really appreciated about the water slides on the Independence of the Seas and this is going to make some of you laugh but these water slides are old person friendly

the quality of the production of Greece as well as the other shows on board with the onboard Ensemble of singers and dancers were really great

the service that we got in the vintages wine bar so on many Royal Caribbean ships and I think every Royal Caribbean ship that has some form of the royal prominade this long open space in the middle of the ship there is a vintages wine bar and we kind of got a free wine tasting while sitting at the bar on the first night

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Check the daily planner for the piano elevator surprise performance
βœ“Consider trying the water slides as they are designed to be old person friendly
βœ“Enjoy late night snacks at Sorento's pizza in the Royal Promenade

I recently cruised with the gigantic Royal Caribbean Independence of the Seas, (not the Icon of the Seas, sorry!). It was my sister's first experience on a cruise ship and, although not everything was perfect, we certainly had a great time! Check out my list of things I did not hate, and check back soon for a cabin tour, a ship tour, and a general run down of the negative things we experienced onboard. #royalcaribbean #cruise #cruiseship Get my NEW BOOK!
