HYDRATE AT THE POOLSIDE BAR

You don’t have to stray too far from your comfy poolside lounger to enjoy a cool and creamy piña colada, a tropical Mai Tai, a glass of bubbly, or your favourite ice cold brew — just pull up a chair at the Pool Bar.

HOW TO PURCHASE

Beverage Package or A La Carte

AGE RESTRICTION

21+ on sailings from North America, 18+ on sailings from South America, Europe, Asia, Australia and New Zealand.

MENU HIGHLIGHTS

Whether your go-to spirit is vodka, gin, tequila, whiskey or rum, you’ll find something delicious to sip on at the Pool Bar. Tequila lovers should definitely try the Royal Citrus Ritatini, made with Avion Silver, Cointreau and fresh lime, or the Smokey Rita — a twist on the classic marg that spotlights Del Maguey Vida Blanco mezcal, triple sec, orange juice and margarita mix. If you’re more into whiskey or bourbon, opt for a classic Manhattan or a Rob Roy, both blended with just the right amount of sweet vermouth. And if you’re in the mood for something ginny, try the blood orange negroni — elevated with a small splash of blood orange, it’ll transport you straight to the storied bars of Florence, where this classic aperitif was born.

PRO TIP

If you don’t want to leave your lounger, an attendant can bring your order to you from the bar.

LIVE MUSIC & MASTERFUL MIXING

Wrap up your night at Schooner Bar, where perfectly mixed cocktails and live entertainment come together in a warm-lit nautical-themed lounge. Cozy up in a seat under the mast, by the portholes, or right by the gleaming grand piano. The sing-along's about to being.

MENU HIGHLIGHTS

If you love a great old fashioned, you’ll find five versions of it on the menu at Schooner Bar, including a tropical twist that blends muddled cherries and pineapple with orange bitters and Malibu Coconut rum, and an innovative New Fashioned that brings in pink grapefruit, fresh raspberries, and a little bit of Southern Comfort. You can also dial up your night with a glamorous champagne cocktail, topped with Domaine Chandon and sweetened with an Angostura-doused sugar cube. Or sip your way across the Caribbean with a Zacapa rum-spiked daiquiri, shaken hard and double-strained, or a classic Papa Doble, prepared with Bacardi Superior rum, lychee and grapefruit juice. If you’re a fan of the Tom Collins, you’ll find that, too — plus four additional versions that each spotlight a different spirit.

PRO TIP

Up for something different? Let the bartender know what your favourite spirit is, and ask them to whip you up a surprise.

SAVOUR THE SIPS & THE SIGHTS

Our fleet’s signature architectural wonder, the Viking Crown Lounge® is the ultimate spot to soak up panoramic views while you sip your favourite cocktails.

If you’re in the mood for a beer, you can choose from popular domestic and international brews like Budweiser, Heineken and even Strongbow Cider. Want to sip on something stronger? Enjoy your favourite vodka, rum, tequila, gin or whiskey any way you like, or savour a glass of Campari and soda, some sweet or dry vermouth on ice, or a refreshing frozen drink.

PRO TIP

SHAKING UP THE CLASSICS

AGE RESTRICTION

21+ on sailings from North America, 18+ on sailings from South America, Europe, Asia, Australia and New Zealand.

MENU HIGHLIGHTS

The vintage décor at R Bar creates the perfect atmosphere to order a classic old fashioned or gimlet, but you should definitely also try one of the signature cocktails on the menu. Those who prefer their drinks on the fruity side will love the Purple Haze, made with Bacardi 8 rum, blue curacao and Pernod, and shaken with pineapple juice, passion fruit puree and a splash of grenadine. For a cocktail that doubles as dessert, opt for the aptly-named Red Velvet Cake, a decadent infusion of limoncello, dark chocolate liqueur, crème de cacao white and strawberry puree. If you’re craving something smooth, but strong, there’s the Green Goddess. It’s a potent blend of Belvedere vodka, Hennessy, blue curacao and mango puree, topped off with a twist of lemon. And for fans of fizzy drinks, it doesn’t get better than the Let’s Get Fizzical, a refreshingly light combination of passion fruit puree, apple juice and St-Germain elderflower liquere topped with prosecco.

PRO TIP

The bartenders here are pros. Let them surprise you with something that’s not on the menu.

The Show Lounge with its large windows offers a light and airy atmosphere for guests to enjoy along with a large central dance floor and its own bar.

The large lounge acts as the ships second entertainment venue with a host of entertainment and activities taking place throughout the day and night from seminars, enrichment lectures, live art auctions and trivia competitions to karaoke and game shows including The Quest game show and Majority Rules.

SUN, SERENITY & SIPS

Relaxation can be thirsty work. While you're soaking up the vibe at the adults-only Solarium, grab a refreshment from the Solarium Bar, where friendly bartenders serve wine, beer, cocktails and chilled tropical drinks perfect for sipping beneath your poolside umbrella.

AGE RESTRICTION

MENU HIGHLIGHTS

The British Pimm’s Cup, the Aperol Spritz, and the Coca-Cola and Kahlua-infused Hennesy Black Bull are staples at Solarium Bar. But if you prefer to unwind with something a little different, opt for one of the premium mixed drinks on the menu. The Kentucky Burgundy is a favourite among bourbon lovers. Made with Maker’s Mark, crème de cassis, fresh lime and strawberry mix, it strikes the perfect balance between spirit-forward, sweet and citrusy. Or keep things simple with an iconic Rob Roy, which spotlights Dewar’s White shaken with sweet vermouth. And if you like your drinks sweet and sour, go for the Washington Apple, a tart blend of Crown Royal, sour apple liqueur, and cranberry juice.

PRO TIP

Don’t see your drink of choice on the menu? This is a full bar and the bartenders know their stuff — feel free to make a special drink request.
