Ovation of the Seas - Full Ship Tour | filmed during a Christmas Voyage
Get ready to explore every corner of the Ovation of the Seas, one of the most impressive ships in the Royal Caribbean International fleet, which looks even more stunning with its magical Christmas decorations on board. 🌟
This was my fourth time sailing on this incredible technological marvel and my second time celebrating Christmas onboard. Believe me, the experience is absolutely unforgettable! 🎅✨
Fun fact: My first-ever cruise on the Ovation of the Seas was also during Christmas in 2016, when the ship made its inaugural voyage in Australian waters. The thrill of being part of that historic moment was indescribable, and even years later, this ship still exceeded expectations.
In today’s video, we will:
✅ Take a full tour of all the ship’s common areas.
✅ Highlight the main features and hidden secrets on board.
✅ Share fun facts about one of Royal Caribbean’s most beloved ships among cruisers.
If you’re planning a Christmas cruise, want to know more about the Ovation of the Seas, or love content about cruises and travel, this video is made for you! 🌍🚢

      Hahaha, about a month...😆 I wouldn't mind being on board a month if it wasn't so expensive lol…but on another note, being on board was a fantastic experience… the ship is big, but in all, not as different from an Oasis-class vessel! I really enjoyed some aspects and areas of the Icon and had a great time onboard… that said, if I had to choose, I would pick an Oasis Class ship (I love the Wonder of the Seas, and I am looking forward to trying the new Utopia of the seas)

      Hi Diana how are you are you guys? Hope all well! I Miss our chats during the Alaskan cruise!!! Thank you for the message, I am really glad you liked the video 😉.. Answering your question…the ovation was built to sail Asia and because of that most of the artwork onboard was created by Asian artists or inspired by the Asian culture. A bit hard to compare as the vibes are so different. As in the Quantum some of the pieces are a bit bizarre but the overall feel onboard is more modern and futuristic. I am sure you guys going to enjoy it 😉… have a fantastic voyage!!! Hope to meet you again in person in the near future. 😊

      Wow Mexican Riviera sounds amazing!!! Rishi and some other friends we met in another cruises are here on Ovation with me on this back-to-back… I will be boarding the Icon with another friend though. We have a few cruises planned for March 25 onboard Liberty and Symphony of the seas and doing the navigator in 2026 from Los Angeles to Mexico … Hope we cross our paths 😉

    Which museums were your favorite? Castillo de la Concepcion? The Roman Forum? or Roman Theater? That is a lot of museums for one day and wondering which one to cut if necessary.

      Hello! Thank you for your message. You will love Cartagena! If you have limited time and have to cut one attraction from your itinerary, I would suggest skipping the Roman Forum. It's the furthest one from the port. Instead, you can visit the Roman theater and the castle, which are both located on the same hillside. Both require a bit of walking, including some steep areas. To save time, you can start at the lift area that will take you close to the top of the Castillo area. From there, you can make your way down to the Roman theater which would be a lot easier on your feet. Enjoy your visit! Happy sailing!!
