Sunshine Highlights

Carnival Sunshine is replete with new

and exciting features - amongst them:

Camp Carnival

Exclusively for kids, it features fabulous

fun play areas - for ages 2-11, whilst

the Circle “C” is a favourite hang-out

for early teens and Club O2 is the

place for 15-17 year-olds.

Food & Drink

Shake Spot is THE place to enjoy

a milk-shake or float, or even a

fruit-shake. And for grown-ups, there's

liqueur-based shakes and floats. A

whole range of new eateries completes

the package. Meanwhile, star of the

Food Network's 'Diners, Drive-ins and

Dives' - Guy Fieri - is the architect of

new shipboard restaurant Guy's Burger

Joint.

Ship Facts

Ship Size: Just over 101,000 tonnes

Guests & Crew: There's room on

Carnival Sunshine for just over

2,600 guests - looked after by an

enthusiastic crew of well over 1,200

Ship Style: The emphasis is on Fun -

Superb Accommodation

There's a distinctive tropical theme to the newly-refurbished cabins aboard

Carnival Sunshine and there are also nearly 200 brand new cabins aboard. Fancy

a spa cabin? No problem! If you're cruising on a budget, then there's an interior

cabin to suit - and of course lots of cabins offer balconies, too.

Dazzling Dining

New dining options on Carnival Sunshine will appeal to the full range of guests -

from laid-back and casual Guy's Burger Joint and the Blue Iguana Cantina serving

Mexican treats such as burritos and tacos (with, by the way, tortillas made fresh

on board), to Fahrenheit 555 (carrying a dining supplement) - the all-American

steak-house, and conceived out of Carnival's very popular 'carnivorium' concept

on other vessels. Cucina del Capitano, with its 24/7 section -and finally Pizzeria

del Capitano, brings an Italian dimension to the ship.

A Day in the Life

... aboard Carnival Sunshine, on its 9 and 12 day Mediterranean itineraries

from Barcelona and Venice, could draw you to the pool deck (with its unique

three-deck Serenity area - just for grown-ups. Or, it might take you to

SportSquare, with its ropes course and mini-golf, jogging route, ping pong

and pool. WaterWorks majors on its popular Twister water slides, a 1,000 litre

drenching bucket and Splash Zone - an exciting water-fun place for the kids.

Of course, throughout the ship there are also shops and coffee shops, nooks

and crannies galore.

Hawaii - is one of the world’s dream

destinations and a cruise is the ultimate way

to discover the beautiful Hawaiian Islands.

Famous in the movies and TV, Hawaii boasts

some of the world’s very best beaches and

water sports. Descend beneath the waves

and the shore opens up a visual paradise of

coral and tropical fish, whilst inland the

awe-inspiring sight of an erupting volcano

is an experience not to be missed. A place

of stark contrasts, too – with snowboarding

at the peaks, rainforest hiking below, and

vibrant nightlife beckoning as sunset comes.

Honolulu and Hilo are amongst the most

enjoyed destinations of cruise guests in

Hawaii.

Beautiful

Destination Spotlight

Hawaii


It's a world away, in more ways than one, and whether your choice is to cruise

from there, or enjoy Hawaii as a port of call on a cruise from the west coast of

the USA, there are endless options to stop off en route and strike a contrast or

chill out. Honolulu - perhaps Hawaii's most celebrated city - is a vibrant mix of

the exotic, the familiar (from movies and TV) and city life the world over. It will

reward a couple of nights' stay with a kaleidoscope of experiences.

]

Combine your Hawaii cruise with a USA city stayOn the west coast - three iconic destinations beckon for an en route stopover.

Historic, relaxed, new-age San Francisco, from the Bay Bridge to the downtown

Fisherman's Wharf, is perhaps THE city in which to chill and thrill. High energy

Los Angeles, from Santa Monica Beach to the stars' handprints of Hollywood and

the glorious excesses of Beverley Hills, speaks for themselves. And, undoubtedly

the most popular stopover for cruisers en route to Hawaii is glittering Las Vegas -

a thousand points of light in the desert of Nevada. Las Vegas has brought fortune

and mis-fortune to gamblers through the years, but today it offers the warmest

of welcomes and, of course, breath taking excitement.Vegas is one of those

destinations that has justifiably earned the comment that

'everyone should visit at least once in their lifetime!’

Of course, your personal Cruise Concierge will help you

to select your perfect Hawaii cruise and stay – give them

a call today for many more options.

Fine sand, volcanic fire - ultimately exotic Hawaii...

The best itineraries

Delicious, fresh food

Warm, welcoming service

Cruising, it’s well known, is the fastest growing holiday choice for Brits, and river cruising is proving

ever more popular with new and experienced cruisers alike. The smaller, more intimate ships that carry

super-relaxed guests along the rivers and waterways of Europe sail through an intriguing, constantly

changing panorama – often almost within touching distance of the shore, and always with a gentler,

more chilled-out feel. This is the ultimate in hassle-free holiday experiences – a comfortable cabin,

restaurant and lounge literally just a few steps away, as the spectacle rolls by!

Why choose a River Cruise?


Perhaps the most fascinating and memorable amongst river cruise itineraries is a

trip through Holland – setting off from laid-back and cosmopolitan Amsterdam

and sailing through the verdant Dutch countryside - and there’s no better time

to experience it than when the world-famous Dutch bulb fields are in glorious

full bloom, in March and April. The energy of Amsterdam’s bustling streets

and busy canals gives way to whirling windmills and emerald pastures and in

seemingly no time at all, to the extravagant palette of colour provided by the

carpet of tulips in the Keukenhof Gardens. An equally memorable pause en route

will be in one of Holland’s quaint old towns – such as the former fishing port of

Volendaam.

Three favourite river cruise ships – each with its own unique character – offer

particularly memorable cruises through Holland. The 3 star Lady Anne and

Amsterdam, and the 4 star Switzerland II from The River Cruise Line, offer a

variety of cabins - each furnished with en suite facilities, and on each ship there

is a lounge bar and restaurant. The cruises featured in this edition of Making

Waves include breakfast, lunch and dinner, and some superb added value

services. On Switzerland 2, it’s ‘all-inclusive’ – so the bar is complimentary -

and on all three ships excursions worth up to £60 are included.

Travelling to and from Amsterdam is also relaxed and hassle-free as part of these

featured cruises. A modern executive coach is waiting to whisk guests from a

local departure town to the port of Hull or Dover for the comfortable overnight

crossing to Amsterdam. And, of course, once aboard ship the sights and sounds;

the colours and experiences move gently past at a serene pace.

All in all, river cruising is every bit as memorable as big ship ocean cruising -

but more leisurely and with its own unique attractions!

See page 34 for our hand-picked river cruise star buys.
