Review summary
We had a good time on the cruise because it was a vacation. We were away from school, work and other daily routines. However, I started cruising in the early 90s and they are not like what they use to be. The food was so much better tasting with more variety back then. Now, I feel that they just throw food together and give to us saying "they’ll eat it". A lot of the food was not seasoned properly and some stuff was like slop. Also, the service has gone down. We did not get turn down service in the afternoons and I am a VIP traveler. The problem with Carnival is the service and food is going down but the prices keep increasing. But, if you don't care about these things a cruise is still one of the best values going for a vacation.
PS: I have to give a shout out for Guy's Burgers. They are so good. I have to say getting Guy's Burgers is one of the best decisions Carnivals made in a long time.

Just remember that paying for the cruise is just the start of the costs. The ship automatically tack on daily tips $12 or $15 per person, if you want to purchase pictures they are $21 for a 8x10 and $11 and $15 for the smaller ones, and if you want to go on any excursions they cost also.
