Royal Caribbean International said it has created a website for travel agents to provide more information about its shore excursions.

The new site has tour clips, photography and other tools to help agents plan clients’ shore excursions. There is also information about commissions paid on group bookings.

Royal Caribbean pays 10% on groups booked by an agent on standard and custom excursions, and a 5% referral fee when group clients pre-book individual shore excursions. Royal Caribbean, like most lines, does not pay commission on individual bookings of shore excursions.

The new website follows a recent expansion of Royal Caribbean's shore excursion program.
