Review summary

The cruise overall was an excellent family vacation. Cruising on Carnivals Celebration Ship, which is their newest and largest felt over crowded at times, but that was primarily on the one or two days which it rained. Overall, my family and I enjoyed the ship, shows, and many many eating options. Looking forward to booking another cruise on this ship in the near future.

Embarkation

Very Easy. No long lines or wait times.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
MDR was slow at times, but the other food venue delivered. Guy's Burgers is still my number one favorite, but the Chicken Shack was a very close second.

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
Lots to do. Really enjoyed riding the BOLT roller coaster.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
The shows were some of the best I've seen on any Carnival Cruise.

Children's Programs

No children
