The Carnival Freedom offers so many ways to have fun during your cruise vacation! There is truly something for everyone onboard the ship.
These are our top 10 things to do on the Carnival Freedom!
Top 10 things to do on the Carnival Freedom
1. Seuss at Sea breakfast
The Seuss at Sea Breakfast is a not to be missed event on the Carnival Freedom! Where else can you have breakfast with the Cat in the Hat and Sam I Am!
You can order Green Eggs and Ham or Cat in the Hat Pancakes.
The breakfast is only $5 a person and is so worth it! The characters come to breakfast so you can take great family photos. Keep an eye out for special Seussical inspired treats during breakfast!
2. Playlist Production show
Carnival has done an amazing job with their playlist production shows. The shows are high energy and so much fun!
They are timed perfectly so you can attend a show before or after your dinner depending on your dining time.
Check out the daily schedule each day to see which show is being shown. Make sure and see your favorite shows because they may only be done once during your cruise!
3. Guy’s Burger Joint
Guy’s Burger Joint is a must-visit for any burger fans on the cruise!
You can order one of the recommended burgers or completely customize your burger. The burgers are an 80/20 blend and grilled right in front of you.
Make sure and visit the toppings bar for some donkey sauce and other great Guy sauces.
4. Have a cocktail at the Alchemy Bar
Cure what ails you at the Alchemy Bar. The Alchemy Bar has tucked away a bit. I highly suggest visiting the Alchemy Bar early in your cruise so you don’t miss out on this amazing opportunity.
The bartenders are incredibly and create a mixed concoction that is perfect for you.
Some of our favorites include:
5. Relax at the Red Frog Pub
The Red Frog Pub has a cool island vibe that is perfect for relaxing. You can check out karaoke and join your fellow cruisers in a song or just relax to the island tunes.
Try a Red Frog Ale that is Carnivals specialty beer.
6. Soak up the sea are on deck 7 and watch the world go by
If you are looking for a place to relax and read a book or just watch the water go by deck 7 is a great choice. There are comfortable chairs and it is normally really quiet.
7. Take the plunge on the Waterworks waterslide
Need to cool off or want a bit of an adventure? Check out the waterslide on board. You can take the plunge and cool off on your ride.
8. Seuss-A-Palooza Parade and Storytime
Seuss-A-Palooza Parade and Storytime is perfect for all ages. I am going to fully admit to dancing along and cheering during the Suess-A-Palooza Parade.
How can you not cheer as you make your way through the boat chanting the Cat is on the Loose.
Story Time brings the Cat in the Hat to life on stage with your cruise director and characters from the book. Trust me this will be a reading of the Cat in the Hat you won’t forget soon.
9. Enjoy dinner at the steakhouse
Looking for a romantic date night or want to treat yourself to an amazing steak meal? Check out the Sun King steakhouse onboard the Carnival Freedom.
There is a fee for visiting the restaurant but it is so worth it! The menu is amazing and you will not believe the cheesecake that is available for dessert!
It is hard to do but make sure and keep room for dessert!
10. Watch the sun go down from your balcony
One of our favorite ways to end the day is watching the sun go down from our balcony. Relax together and just soak up the last bits of the sun for the day.
You can order wine or champagne from room service to add to your evening.
These are just a few of the amazing things you can do on the Carnival Freedom. There is really something for everyone onboard the Carnival Freedom!

Wow, this looks like an absolutely fantastic cruise! They've got everything. Guy's would be my hubby's go-to, I think, and I love that they've got a toppings bar so you can do all of that on your own.
Sun King steakhouse would be my place of choice though 😛

The Seuss at Sea breakfast looks like a blast and that burger is decadent! Also, some beautiful views. I am not a big ocean traveler, but, I'll bet this is a lot of fun!

These cruises sound like perfect vacations. The Red Frog pub and the Alchemy bar sound great. I'd love to relax to some tropical music.
Terri Ramsey Beavers
Carnival has the absolute best cruises ever. I'm hoping to go on one this year although I haven't decided which and where yet. The food from the steakhouse would be amazing.
Robin (Masshole Mommy)
It sounds like Carnival is the way to cruise. I have been dying to go on another cruise 🙂
Ashley
My daughter would absolutely love all the Dr. Suess magic going on over at the Freedom. She recently became a huge fan and cannot wait to go down to Universal this year and see Suessville. This looks even better!
Reginia Cordell
I am such a fan of cruises. I love how relaxing they are. I would definitely relax on my balcony daily as well as have a burger. I'm a burger fanatic.
Michelle F.
I love that there are so many things to do. That slide looks amazing!
Angela Christopher
Wow It looks like a blast I have been on a cruise before and had an amazing time. I would love to go on another one.
Jeanae
The food and entertainment on the ships are always memorable. We haven't taken a cruise in forever, and wondered if our son was too young to enjoy one. After researching a bit more, I am certain that we need to plan for a cruise this year.
DogVills
What a great selection of activities. My kids would love that DR SEUSS Show and slides
Rosey
I'd like to relax on a quiet cruise deck somewhere. I think it would be fun/awesome/relaxing/amazing. 🙂
Rebecca Swenor
It totally looks like an amazing vacation to take with the family. I would love to go on this cruise indeed and maybe some day I will be able to go. Thanks so much for sharing.
Chubskulit Rose
I think that the Seuss at Sea Breakfast would be my children's favorite. I think if money allows us this year, we are definitely trying to go on a cruise.
Nancy
I always seem to read blogs right before I make myself some supper. That burger you had looks scrumptious.
April
We sailed on the Carnival Triumph in December and experienced some of the same things. Guy's burgers were awesome!
Terri Ramsey Beavers
I love going on cruises but I've not been on the Carnival Freedom yet. The kids would have a blast and I know I would as well. Thanks for sharing, when we decide which cruise we want to go on, I'll see what Carnival has to offer.
Jacqueline
I have to admit. I am petrified to go on an overnight cruise! I have been on 2 day trips, many years ago, as a kid in Miami. I remember both trips as amazing! Everyone knows Carnival gives a perfect vacation experience! I need to just "get over it" and book a damn cruise already!
Shaney Vijendranath
I so want to do everything here! Love your list, it sounds so exciting. Hope I get to experience this soon.
Cindy (Vegetarian Mamma)
Wow, those are some great tips, and thank you for sharing. It makes me want to cruise again! I think I need to book soon!
Aisha Kristine Chong
Seems like a lot of fun, I definitely would love to visit and experience those things!
Courtney
This sounds like a great cruise ship!! I'm all about cruises. My favorite way to travel!
Amanda
Growing up, a cruise was our typical vacation (lucky, I know!). So excited to take my boys on a cruise so they can enjoy some of the same experiences I did as a kid.
Amanda
Following up with another comment...have you ever been on a Royal Carribean cruise? I feel like they are extremely family friendly as well and have a few more fancy things for the adults.
Penny Struebig
It's been years since we've taken a cruise. It looks like things have improved immensely since our last one. Maybe it's time to go again.
