7 Night Cruise sailing from New Orleans roundtrip aboard Carnival Dream.

It’s one thing to be fun, but it’s another thing to be first. Carnival Dream was at the forefront of a wave of amazingly fun Carnival ships; as the genesis of the Dream class, it set the direction for the ships that followed — first Carnival Magic and then Carnival Breeze.

But back to Carnival Dream: the ship itself is a unique experience with the way-fun RedFrog Rum Bar and the very cool BlueIguana Tequila Bar. Get your appetite ready, because you’re gonna need it. Carnival Dream features two dual-level dining rooms, a gourmet steakhouse and of course, the everybody-loves-it Lido Restaurant. It also features Ocean Plaza, which combines tasty treats with perhaps even tastier entertainment. Entertainment options are all up and down the ship, as is water-based fun, from the heart-racing waterslide action at WaterWorks to the soul-soothing Thalassotherapy pool at the Cloud 9 Spa.

Despite its name, Carnival Dream is definitely a reality. Can’t believe it? Pinch yourself… and book your dream cruise today.

Highlights of this cruise:

New Orleans, LA
New Orleans is a city that knows how to have fun.

And don't forget to take a ride on one of the city's picturesque trolley cars.

Montego Bay
Kick back to the saucy rhythms of reggae on your Montego Bay, Jamaica Cruise. Blessed with some of the country’s finest beaches, shopping, restaurants, and golf courses, “Mo Bay,” as it’s affectionately known, is a tropical live wire. Carnival® Montego Bay cruises let you shop, swim, and play in Mo Bay to your heart’s content—and sample Jamaica’s rich culture on excursions into the island’s breathtaking countryside. Lounge on the golden sands of a palm-shaded beach. Tour the grand interior of a haunted mansion. Test your skills and perfect your putting on a seaside golf course. Swing to reggae sounds at a barefoot beach bar when you cruise to Jamaica. Shop for hand-woven straw hats and delicate wood carvings.

Grand Cayman
Enjoy laidback British civility in a sun-splashed tropical locale on your Carnival® Grand Cayman cruise. Don’t let the island’s scrubland terrain fool you—a spectacular marine paradise lies just offshore of Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands, where a living undersea wall drops dramatically into the ocean deep. Cruises to Grand Cayman bring you directly to the best scuba diving and snorkeling in the kaleidoscopic Caribbean Sea. Stretch out on the glimmering white sands at Seven Mile Beach. Stroll the shops, cafes, and museums in George Town, Grand Cayman. Swim with gentle stingrays in Stingray City on your Grand Cayman cruise. Dive in the wondrous undersea world along the Cayman Wall. Spot native parrots and lizards in the Queen Elizabeth II Botanic Park.

Cozumel
Long before Cancun became a popular destination, Cozumel was well-known as a diving spot and home to the world famous Palancar Reef, which gives divers the opportunity to view thousands of brilliantly colored fish. Non-divers can kick back on a sun-drenched beach, or enjoy any number of seaside activities, such as shopping in colorful marketplaces or dining in an open-air café.
