I tried to spend as little as possible on Carnival’s newest cruise ship. I recommend shelling out for better food and more fun.

  • I turned down almost all upcharged amenities during my four-day Carnival Firenze cruise.
  • The new ship has more complimentary family-friendly activities than some of its competitor’s latest vessels.
  • But snubbing the up-charged food made for a less-than-amazing cruise.

Looking for a vacation that lets you ball on a budget? You’ll certainly hit your “budget” requirement on Carnival’s new Firenze ship — so long as you don’t expect to truly ball out.

Cruises are an economical vacation option. After all, what other ticket includes unlimited food, a hotel room, activities, and the opportunity to see several destinations in one trip — all for less than $80 a day like Carnival is offering in 2024?

But if you’re unwilling to spend more than the base fare, you could have a pretty different vacation experience from your peers who are ready to pay-to-play. At least, that’s how I felt during my first Carnival cruise in mid-May on the new Firenze.
