Carnival Victory
Carnival Victory: Photo tour & ship overview
Snapshot
Carnival Victory features a variety of amenities for the "winner" in everyone. Don't miss the winning atmosphere of the South China Sea Casino, and try your hand at poker, blackjack, roulette, or craps. Little winners will love Virtual Sea Arcade and play-time opportunities at one of three youth-only spaces. And for an open-air experience that brings out the winner in everyone, there's City Sports Park, featuring miniature golf, ping pong, a jogging track and more. Take in everything else this ship has to offer: master performances in the two show lounges, quiet time at Serenity Adult-Only Retreat or the library, and delicious food and drink up and down the ship.
Note: Carnival Victory will undergo a top-to-bottom, nearly $200 million makeover in spring 2020, after which it will be renamed Carnival Radiance.
