7 Night Cruise sailing from San Juan roundtrip aboard Adventure of the Seas.

Royal Caribbean International have taken cruising to a whole new level. Enjoy one-of-a-kind features like an ice-skating rink, the Royal Promenade and a rock-climbing wall just for starters. How did they accommodate all of these innovative ideas on one cruise ship? Simple. They built a bigger ship - the 138,000-ton, 3,114-guest Adventure of the Seas. Innovations on this and other Voyager-family cruise ships add up to more space for every guest and include enhanced staterooms, expanded dining options and exceptional recreational facilities.

Highlights of this cruise:

San Juan, Puerto Rico
One of the largest islands in the Eastern Caribbean, Puerto Rico's landscape encompasses mountains, underground caves, coral reefs, white-sand beaches and an incredibly massive rainforest that supplies fresh water to most of the island. At the same time San Juan, the capital of the commonwealth, is a big city with a bustling business district, glitzy resorts and casinos, as well as one of the most stunning examples of colonial life in the Western world.

Philipsburg, St. Maarten
When the Spanish closed their colonial fort on St. Maarten in 1648, a few Dutch and French soldiers hid on the island and decided to share it. Soon after, the Netherlands and France signed a formal agreement to split St. Maarten in half, as it is today. Philipsburg displays its Dutch heritage in its architecture and landscaping. The island offers endless stretches of beach, beautiful landscapes and great shopping.

Basseterre, St Kitts
With dormant volcanoes, golden sand beaches and gorgeous green hills, St. Kitts is a beautiful backdrop to your Caribbean adventure. Discovered in 1623 by the British and settled by the French in 1625, the island's deep colonial history is reflected in the abandoned fortresses, as well as its landscaped gardens, city squares and architectural details.

St. John's, Antigua
The first settlement on the island we now know as Antigua was not established until the 1600s, when English settlers arrived. Antigua remained a part of the British Commonwealth until its independence in 1981. Today, Antigua is a popular holiday destination, attracting tourists with its ideal climate, amazing landscape, leisurely lifestyle and 365 beautiful beaches - one for every day of the year!

Castries, St Lucia
St Lucia has been a part of the British Commonwealth since 1803. But prior to that, it was often occupied by the French, which is evident in much of the island's culture. Castries offers a colourful local market and great shopping. And the surrounding areas offer lush rainforests, striking waterfalls, beautiful beaches and Sulphur Springs ? the world's only drive-through volcano.

Bridgetown, Barbados
Barbados gained independence from the British in 1966, but the English influence is still apparent on this stunning Caribbean island. English is the native tongue, Cricket is the national sport and tea is still a favourite drink. It is no wonder that this piece of paradise was once called 'Little England '.
