The creators provide an extensive walking tour of the Carnival Horizon, detailing various amenities and service areas across multiple decks. Starting on deck three, the tour covers essential locations such as guest services, the excursion desk, and the main lobby featuring the Horizon Bar. The walkthrough explores dining options, including the Reflections and Meridian dining rooms, as well as specialty venues like Fahrenheit 550, Bonsai sushi, and the Alchemy Bar. The creators highlight entertainment and social spaces such as the Limelight Lounge, the Skybox sports bar, and the O2 club for teenagers. On the upper decks, the tour examines the Lido marketplace, various buffet stations, and the resort pool area. Additional features discussed include the Cloud 9 spa, the Dr. Seuss Water Works, and the sports complex containing miniature golf and a ropes course. The tour concludes with a visit to the Serenity adults-only area on deck 15, which the creators note is restricted to guests aged 21 and older.

Creator's Key Takeaways

I think this is a terrible design choice carnival what were you thinking

Physical menus are not a thing currently in 2021 aboard carnival ships

I may or may not have fallen asleep on some of these more than once while on this ship

They have removed the casino bar from the casino because that was one of the main areas that was a smoking bar and they're trying to limit interactions with the crew

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Use the QR codes for menus as physical menus are not currently used
βœ“Visit the Serenity Deck if you are over 21 for a quiet adults-only area
βœ“Check out the self-service beer station for Carnival's exclusive 'Thirsty Frog Red' beer
βœ“Mix the brown sugar sauce with ranch at Guy's Burger Bar for the 'secret recipe'

πŸ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Finding bathrooms β€” Bathrooms are located throughout the ship; specific locations are pointed out during the tour (e.g., near the buffet, promenade)
Getting a pool chair β€” If the main pool deck is full, check the Tides Pool Deck (Deck 10) which is usually quieter and has plenty of seating
Navigating the ship β€” You cannot walk through the entire length of Deck 3; you must go up to Deck 4 to cross from midship to aft
