Your floating resort

Carnival Vista manages to have more wonderful activities than you could ever need but to still not feel too busy. How about suspended flying bicycles to start with, as well as a ropes course? Or a visit to the 4D Thrill Theatre movie theatre or the chance to see an IMAX movie?

And if it's relaxing you're after, head to the many bars and lounges or the Havana Bar and pool. Take part in a RedFrog Pub & Brewery trivia session or help yourself at the pour-your-own-beer taps. For the Caribbean cruise of a lifetime, be sure to read more about the Carnival Vista now.

The Chef's Table

Carnival Vista is the first Carnival Cruises ship to have a dedicated Chef's table. It's located on deck five, inside the Reflection's main kitchen. It comes with quite a hefty cover charge but is well worth it. The sixteen-table section is separated by a glass wall and the evening starts with cocktails and appetizers, followed by a tour of the kitchen and then leading on to an eight-course meal, hosted by one of the ship's master chefs. Book as early as possible as it is often sold out by the time the cruise departs.

This lovely spot offers affordable yet delectable sushi and sashimi as well as rolls, sides, soups, sakes, Kirin beers and desserts.

Dr. Seuss Breakfast

The whole family can enjoy this meal that is part breakfast and part journey into the tasty and whimsical world of Dr. Seuss. As expected, this is a delicious feast of Green Eggs and Ham and other fantastical treats brought to you by the Cat in the Hat and Friends. It's recommended that you reserve a spot as this breakfast only takes place once or twice during the cruise on a sea day.
