Review summary
Independence of the Seas is truly a ship for all ages. This is my second time on this ship but a totally different experience from the first. Two years ago I travelled with just my husband and totally enjoyed all the amenities. Last week I traveled with my grandchildren (7&10 years old) and had a totally different but fabulous experience. Activities and amenities are plentiful so regardless of age or interest you are guaranteed a fun time.
