We were lucky enough to see the world’s biggest cruise ship, which normally has the same population as the average US town, completely to ourselves.
Royal Caribbean International’s enormous ship Icon of the Seas weighs 248,663 gross tonnes and is taller in length than the Eiffel Tower.
With a maximum capacity of 7,960 people, it can house the average population of a town in the US.
Check out Supercar Blondie and Sergi’s exclusive experience on the world’s biggest cruise ship above and marvel at it for yourself.
