Creator's Key Takeaways
Carnival's Italianstyle ships are former Costa Cruise vessels originally built for the European and Asian markets that have been re-imagined with a unique twist called fun Italian style.
Think Carnival signature fun, but with elegant European design, Italian menus, and a whole new vibe.
If you're a pasta and wine lover, Italian style may be for you. If you want more variety, then go traditional Carnival.
At the end of the day, both experiences are 100% Carnival, just with different flavors.
