WHO’S IT FOR?
The newest ship in Carnival’s lineup is family-friendly, with plenty of
onboard entertainment for kids and adults alike, from minigolf to
crowd-pleasing stage shows. And to better accommodate fami-
lies, the Family Harbor section of the ship features larger staterooms
and a designated lounge with a daily breakfast buffet and afternoon
snacks, as well as a selection of kid-friendly video games.
WHAT’S FOR DINNER?
The Carnival Panorama is a Vista-class ship (the largest in the fleet),
so you can expect a full roster of restaurants that cater to every
dining whim. Carnival-tested faves are part of the recipe, running
from Guy Fieri’s casual barbecue and burger offer-
ings to the upscale Fahrenheit 555 Steakhouse. For
experiential dining, book in advance for a galley tour
followed by a multicourse dinner at The Chef’s Table,
or reserve an up-front view at Bonsai Teppanyaki.
HOW TO SPEND THE DAYS AT SEA?
Delight in unparalleled ocean views while pedaling
on the popular SkyRide bike track suspended above
the top deck, or take in the rush of the exhilarating
SkyCourse ropes course. In addition to the refresh-
ing pools on deck, you can enjoy splashing around at
the WaterWorks water park, with its spiraling Twister
waterslide. Grown-ups can have their own fun at the
Havana complex, with a pool, lounge, and bar; the
adults-only Serenity retreat; the Cloud 9 Spa; and onboard mixology
competitions, where cruisers go head-to-head for the best cocktail.
HOW TO SPEND THE DAYS IN PORT?
Don’t miss the adrenaline-pumping thrill of Superman & Zipline
Adventure in Cabo San Lucas, followed by complimentary salsa
and quesadillas as your reward. Did we say salsa? In Mazatlán, the
Salsa & Salsa excursion will have you making margaritas and dif-
ferent kinds of salsas, followed by an easy-to-follow salsa dance
class. Your next stop, Puerto Vallarta, offers a pulsing dinner-theater
adventure with the Rhythms of the Night excursion in which you ride
a catamaran to a lush island, and enjoy candlelit tropical cuisine. n
