Ship tip

Make sure you have alot of money on your cruise card and/or bring cash. There were many things I wanted to do on the ship and on the ports, but I did not have the funds.

Took a ferry boat from the ship to the island. The island did not have much to do for activities.

Buy the drink card upgrade. In advance you only pay for about 5 drinks a day but get 15 !

Expensive drinks are just a fact of cruising. They know they can charge high prices and cruises will pay it. It helps keep the cruise fares down.

Wonderful

We had a blast, it was fun and exciting the whole 5 days

This was the first f many cruises for me and my children. We all had a blast. There was so much to do and my children were never bored. We will definitely book a carnival cruise again.
