Review summary
This was my first time on a cruise and will definitely do it again. Carnival has everything down to a science. Very well organized and orchestrated. Just a few disappointments. First, the food was good and delicious but it wasn't always hot. Secondly, there were vacuum cleaners and room attendant carts in the hallways and by luck next to my stateroom, this was very annoying. Finally, the photographers constantly taking photos was a bit much. I can see taking one the first day and maybe one on the elegant night but not every single event. I had a great time with my family and it was a great experience. I would recommend a Carnival cruise to anyone.

Welcome to Cruiseline.com and cruising. While your criticisms may be valid, I'm perplexed about your rating of On-board Activities. Carnival is famous for their ship activities, from Bingo to Bellyflops. Dance parties on deck every day, pub crawl, Chef's Table, deck sports, Behind the Fun Tour, champagne art auction, I mean the list goes on and on. I suggest you read your daily newsletter.
