Carnival Cruise Lines is the largest and most popular cruise line in the world. Carnival offers their fleet of "Fun Ships," operating voyages from 2 to 18 days in length to many destinations. Carnival offers cruises to the Bahamas, the Caribbean, the Mexican Riviera, Alaska, Hawaii, Europe and the Panama Canal. They even offer cruises to nowhere for those of you that don't have a lot of time to get away...or for those of you that are looking to get a taste of what Carnival Cruise Lines has to offer.
Carnival is particularly well known for their festive-yet-casual atmosphere. Carnival Cruises offers a variety of onboard dining options, including an open dining setup that they're trying out on select sailings. They also have lots of entertainment and activity options to suit anyone's mood or taste. Carnival's ships offer everything from elegant multi-course meals to more casual options like their "Seaview Bistros" and 24-hour pizzerias. The Carnival cruise ships also feature dazzling Las Vegas-style entertainment, along with a full slate of morning-til-night activities to take part in. A Carnival Cruise Line "Fun Ship" cruise truly offers something for everyone...and then some!
Carnival cruises are a great option for anyone looking to cruise. They offer fabulous options for families, friends, and couples. Additionally, each Carnival cruise ship features many swimming pools, a full gambling casino, onboard duty free shopping, as well as a major spa and fitness facility, and "Camp Carnival," a complimentary fleetwide children's program that hosts around 175,000 kids a year.
New for 2008 in Carnival's fleet is the amazing Carnival Splendor, their largest and most innovative ship to date. This ship features staterooms with flat screen TVs, a 5,500-square foot children's playroom, a two-level spa and gym facility, and special spa stateroom accommodations. In 2009 Carnival is expected to release the Carnival Dream, an even bigger and more feature-packed ship!
