Commission isn't offered for individual tour sales but information is outlined on pay for group bookings and a referral fee when group clients pre-book individual excursions. 

Marketing resources such as tour clips and photography are available, too, that agents can use as tools when selling cruises. The cruise line lists reasons why clients should buy Royal Caribbean's excursions as priority in getting off the ship in port, a 'hassle-free' 24-hour cancellation policy, a guarantee the ship will wait for the tour's return and in-depth destination expertise.

Royal Caribbean pays commissions on tours sold with group bookings. The rate is 10% on standard and custom excursions, with a 5% referral fee when the agent's group clients pre-book their individual excursions.

The site is at www.royalshoreexcursions.com.
