Princess Cruises will offer a back-of-house ship tour for $150 per person when the Ruby Princess debuts on Nov. 8.
The Ultimate Ship Tour will enable passengers to visit the ship's engine control room, medical center, print shop, laundry, photo lab, bridge, galley and back stage at the theater. Participants will receive themed mementos at many of the tour stops, said Princess.
The tour lasts approximately three hours and will be offered once or twice per cruise on a sea day, said the line.
"This tour is really the ultimate opportunity for some of our passengers to get a very unique view of the new Ruby Princess, and meet some of the ship's senior officers in their working environment," said Jan Swartz, Princess senior vice president. "I'm sure people will be amazed at what goes into running a city at sea, particularly since our onboard staff makes it appear so easy."
Following the tour's debut aboard the Ruby Princess, it will be introduced on all Princess ships.
