Get to Know Carnival Dream

It's one thing to be fun, but it's another thing to be first. Carnival Dream was at the forefront of a recent wave of amazingly innovative and fun Carnival ships. As the genesis of the Dream class, Carnival Dream set the direction for the ships that followed in her footsteps — first Carnival Magic and then Carnival Breeze.

But back to Carnival Dream: the ship itself is a unique experience with the way-fun RedFrog Rum Bar^® and the very cool BlueIguana Tequila Bar^™. Get your appetite ready, because you're gonna need it. Carnival Dream features two dual-level dining rooms, a gourmet steakhouse and dedicated sushi spot Bonsai Sushi^™. It's also got a full menu of our latest and greatest casual spots for a bite: BlueIguana Cantina^™, Pizzeria del Capitano, Guy's Burger Joint^™ and Guy's Pig & Anchor Smokehouse^™. (That's Guy as in Guy Fieri, by the way — so you know the food's delish.)

Carnival Dream also features the borderline-magical Alchemy Bar^® and Ocean Plaza, which combines tasty treats with perhaps even tastier entertainment. Entertainment options are all up and down the ship, and so is soaking-wet fun, from the heart-racing waterslide action at Carnival WaterWorks^™ to the soul-soothing Thalassotherapy pool at the Cloud 9 Spa^™.

Despite its name, Carnival Dream is definitely a reality. Can't believe it? Pinch yourself... and book your dream cruise today.
