Best Cruise For Kids – Part II
Carnival
Carnival, which carries more kids than any other cruise line, offers the cruise industry’s top-rated children’s program, “Camp Carnival.” Carnival youth programs accept kids starting at age 2.
“Camp Carnival” activities are held from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. under the watchful eyes of the ship’s youth staff, who also conduct babysitting services from 10 p.m. to 3 a.m., as well as from 8 a.m. to noon for children under 2 on port days. The cost for babysitting is $6/h for the first child and $4/h for each additional child in the same family.
You can rent strollers, both single and double ones on board. For a daily fee of $6/day on three and four days trips and $25 per cruise for lengthier itineraries.
Children’s menus offer a variety of kids’ favorites, and a “daily junior special” making sure your kids will get something new and different every day. The menus are printed on the back page of a fun coloring/activity book featuring all kind of games and are provided with crayons.
You will find Carnival’s poolside restaurants like a 24-hour pizzeria, a grille area serving hamburgers and hot dogs and a complimentary soft ice cream and frozen yogurt station. You also have a service offering freshly baked chocolate chip cookies at bedtime.
You also have “Fountain Fun Card” that allow unlimited soft drinks throughout the cruise for guests under 18 ranging in price from $12 on three day trip to $26 on an eight day journey.
