Review summary

it was my first time on a Carnival Cruise. I've been on many other cruises but being over 60 years I was a little reluctant to book on th "Fun Ships." I was more than impressed with the whole cruise. No problem with a lot of noisy activity aboard. The staff was very competent and very helpful throughout the trip. Getting off the ship to return home was a breeze, too.

Ports of call

Izmir, Turkey

Turkey is more advanced in izmir than I would have thought. A very modern city

Don't Miss: Ephesus is a must see place. My 2nd visit there!

Venice, Italy

5 out of 5

We went out to the Morano? factroy and had a visit back on the St. Marks Square. We had been ther 2 times before and did not do as much in this port. What we did was most rewarding though.
