Review summary

Don't get off the boat in Jamaica. They will scam you out of money and harass you if they don't get what they want. i was cussed out for refusing to ride with one of the drivers back to my boat. Do not go to the Margarita-Ville the people outside will scam you. One of the drivers said that he would take my 8 year old daughter back to the boat for free if she needed a ride because she was complaining about being hot when we were waiting on our driver. #Seriously

Ship tip

Only do Excursions with Carnival in Jamaica. Cozumel's exchange rate is 25% higher than the US at their restaurants. They will not tell you until after you eat and they will add 25% to that total for gratuity.

We did a resort excursion for the day in Jamaica and had a wonderful time. Jamaica has crazy drivers though.

You are supposed to rate the ship, leave the destinations out of your rating!

We did this same cruise last year.  LOVED Jamaica and Cozumel! The people were very friendly. Never felt unsafe. In fact we loved it so much we are going back again this June!  And the Carnival Dream is AWESOME!!  Just saying. That was our experience!

I guess no one notice that the questions were asked about the (destination) and the ship. So go back and read it again super smart people. Or have someone help you before you comment. Let me help: The question was about "Carnival Dream Cruise Review to Caribbean - Western"..... HARDLY DREAM SHIP! #DUMMIES Did you not see the port rating? Jamaica is not safe for me and my family. Thats your opinion! Im not mad....lol #UR the truth about your island hurts....IK Last but not least...did you notice this cruise, not the ship ...had a 3.6 rating already! Read people!!!!!!!!!!!

The ports in Jamaica that Carnival visits are safe. Been to all of them 2-3 times...You got up on the wrong side of the bed.

That's the ships fault?

Shouldn't you be giving the destination a bad rating not the ship itself? #idiot

Agree 100%!! My husband and I did not like Jamaica! Felt dirty, and the people from there were rude and once they got your money their attitudes changed fast.

Why give the ship a bad rating because you had a bad experience in Jamaica?
