Celebrity Chef Guy Fieri Sails With Carnival Cruise Lines For Family Fun In New Food Network Television Special

MIAMI, Oct. 23, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Guy Fieri and his family take to the sea for fun, adventure and killer food aboard the Carnival Breeze in a new television special, Guy's Family Cruise, premiering on Food Network Monday, October 28 at 9 p.m. ET (8 p.m. CT).   

Guy's Family Cruise follows the Fieris during their Caribbean adventure – making stops in Miami, the Bahamas, Turks & Caicos Islands, and Jamaica aboard Carnival Cruise Lines' largest and newest ship, Carnival Breeze.

In the hour-long Food Network special, Guy and his family experience many of the amazing attractions available on Carnival Breeze.  Guy, along with his two sons and nephew, work the line at his namesake eatery, Guy's Burger Joint, a popular complimentary poolside dining spot featured on several Carnival ships that offers delicious hand-crafted burgers, along with fresh-cut fries and special recipes the chef created exclusively for Carnival.  

The family dines together at the ship's Fahrenheit 555 steakhouse and indulges in Italian family-style favorites at Cucina del Capitano.  While at sea, they have some fun at WaterWorks, slipping down the 312-foot Twister slide and getting soaked by the 300-gallon PowerDrencher splash bucket.  As the guys check out SkyCourse, a suspended ropes course with breathtaking views to the sea 150 feet below, Guy's wife spends time at Cloud 9 Spa and enjoys some much-deserved "me" time at Serenity, an adults-only retreat. The ship ultimately docks at the picturesque Caribbean port of Ocho Rios, Jamaica where the family enjoys some sun-splashed activities and samples the local cuisine.

"Our family vacation on Carnival Breeze was awesome for the entire Fieri Krew," said Fieri.  "I'm stoked that we brought the cameras along so that everyone can see all of the off-the-hook food and cool things you can do on board and in port on a Carnival cruise."

"Guy has been such a great partner to Carnival and we were excited to host the Fieris' first-ever family cruise on Carnival Breeze, just as we have done for millions of families over the past 41 years," said Jim Berra, Carnival's chief marketing officer. "Whether you're new to cruising, a Carnival veteran or big fans of Guy, this new special provides television viewers an authentic look at how one family can enjoy a multitude of delicious dishes, fun activities and exciting entertainment on a Carnival cruise vacation."
