Carnival Fun Italian Style

Sail on one of these new, unique ships—Carnival Venezia™ or Carnival Fiernze™—courtesy of Carnival's sister line, Costa Cruises. There’s new experiences inspired by Costa’s heritage, like exclusive Terrazza staterooms and great spots to sip like the Frizzante™ wine bar or fun frozen drink spot Rococó™… plus more great flavor in the form of Mex-Italian fusion at Tomodoro™ and elevated Italian classics at Il Viaggio.

Speaking of classics, you can also expect plenty of Carnival fan-faves among the onboard food, entertainment, and service.
