When Carnival first announced Fathom, it sounded like a rather somber week. People would spend their days doing volunteer work at the destination (in the Dominican Republic or Cuba), and the rest of the time they would be learning about the culture and preparing for the next.
As it turns out, Fathom is going to be much like any other small ship cruise, except most everything will be themed around the destination - in particular the food, entertainment and enrichment programs.
Details appeared in the November 23 edition of Cruise News Daily.
