The line that connects the sea and the sky inspired us to build a ship that unites our guests in fun, comfort, dining and exotic destinations. And above all, connect with each other. It's Carnival Horizon!
I haven't done this ship in a while. First, Carnival Horizon goes big with the two-screen Carnival Multiplex®, combining massive IMAX® action-packed theater with 3D visuals, incredible motion effects, and more. The ship keeps things going with an onboard water park that gives you more than just a little splash - Dr. Seuss WaterWorks™ gets you splashing with the help of the wacky characters everyone loves. Ride your bike with SkyRide®. Punchliner Comedy Club™ and Playlist Productions™ are just two of his top picks in entertainment. Meanwhile, Lip Sync Battle™: Carnival is your chance to show off all the talent you've packed before leaving home... on stage.
For relaxation, visit the Serenity Adult-Only Retreat™ or experience the ultimate in relaxation at the Cloud 9 Spa™, featuring amazing massages, thermal suites and more. Havana Bar™ & Pool is also good. A spot that combines stylish poolside lounging with authentic Cuban cocktails and a frenetic nightlife after dark. Carnival Horizon has three age-specific youth areas.
This vessel brings tons of flavor to every meal. It all started with a guy named Guy-Fieri- and he created two great spots on board. One is the popular Guy's Burger Joint™ and the other is Guy's Pig & Anchor Smokehouse | Brewhouse™, a venue that serves classic barbecue paired with freshly brewed beer on board. If you're looking for the best seafood in Carnival Horizon, Seafood Shack™ is your place. Bonsai Teppanyaki™ is intimate dining and interactive performances, while Fahrenheit 555™ is a dining experience that rivals the finest land-based steakhouses. Gigi Asian Kitchen® and Cucina del Capitano® each specialize in pleasing a particular palate. People craving Pan-Asian and traditional Italian food served family style. (check...and check!)
Put it all together and you have a Carnival Horizon vacation.
It is customary for our guests to extend gratuities to the shipboard staff in appreciation for their hard work and exceptional service. 100% of your gratuities are distributed to the crew who you interact with, such as your stateroom attendants, dining and culinary services staff, as well as others who work behind the scenes to enhance your overall cruise experience. Applying this charge automatically streamlines the recognition process and ensures our crew will share in your generosity.
To help you plan, we have provided the recommended guidelines:
*Effective with all cruises departing on or after May 1, 2022, we are making adjustments to our recommended onboard gratuity guidelines, as follows:
You may pay this daily gratuity in two different ways:
Pre-Pay
Gratuities can be added at the time of booking or anytime up to the sail date. Guests who booked directly with Carnival may add their pre-paid gratuities on Carnival.com. If a guest booked with a travel agent, they may contact their travel professional to add pre-paid gratuities to their booking. Prepaid gratuities are reflected in the 'Miscellaneous Charge' field on the confirmation and in the guest's E-Documents.
Sail & Sign®
If guests have not pre-paid their gratuities, the recommended, per person, amount will be posted to their Sail & Sign account on the second to last day of the cruise. Should a guest not be satisfied with the service they receive, they can contact the Guest Services desk while on board. This will allow us to address their concerns in a timely and appropriate fashion. At the discretion of the guest, gratuities may be adjusted after they have been posted on the guest's account, while on board. Gratuities, as posted on a guest's Sail & Sign account, will be considered final after a guest disembarks and no changes will be made after the cruise.
