Voyager of the Seas®
There's never been a cruise ship like this. Enjoy one-of-a-kind features like an ice-skating rink, the Royal Promenade and a rock-climbing wall.

The One Thing
You Don't Want to Miss
Probably the most charming way to discover this historic city is by carriage. Take a carriage ride through the Victorian-era streets and let your driver take you back through history.

Other Fun Things to Do

  • Spend a lazy day relaxing on the beach or fishing off the coast.

  • Discover the famed historic Strand District and have fun shopping in the city's more than 100 curio shops, outlets, antique stores, art galleries, and numerous museums and gardens.
  • Explore some of the most historic buildings in Texas - Victorian homes and businesses that have withstood hurricanes, fire and modern development.
  • Stop by the Grand Opera House, ranked as one of the nation's finest historic theaters.
  • Visit Moody Gardens, featuring a two-million-gallon aquarium, a 3D IMAX Theater, an IMAX Ridefilm, and a twelve-story tropical rain forest.

Get a Taste of Local Flavor

There aren't many places where you can enjoy Gulf shrimp, Louisiana crawfish, Galveston Bay oysters, and soft-shell crabs while you watch the very ships that caught them at work. The seafood here is fresh and always delicious.
