Review summary

We had taken 3 previous cruises on Royal Caribbean so trying Carnival was new for us. I would have to say that Carnival Cruise Lines was just as good as Royal Caribbean. The Carnival Glory was a wonderful ship, the service on board was first class, the food was terrific and we really liked the route the ship took. The cruise staff went way beyond our expectations, they did everyting possible to make our trip exceptional. We would certainly sail with them again.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The food choices were tremendous. You literally could eat 24 hours a day!!

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Only problem we had with the entertainment was that it was WAY TOO LOUD. We actaully used ear plugs for the evening shows.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
All of the staff were excellent, expecially the wait staff and the cabin staff.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
The layout of the ship was a little odd, but once you figure it out it was ok.

Ports of call

Cozumel, Mexico

5 out of 5
I like Cozumel for the shopping. I've done the tours on previous trips, but to me the shopping is best here. I really like "Los Cinco Soles" for all my shopping.
Don't Miss: The Mayan Ruins at Tulum.

Costa Maya (Mahahual), Mexico

5 out of 5
Not a lot to see and do, but I think that will change over the next few years. People very friendly.
Don't Miss: The Mayan Ruins of Chachobben

Freeport, Grand Bahama Island

5 out of 5
Great beaches here. People very friendly. The dock was a little far from town and it wasn't made very clear to us about the taxi's into Freeport - once you figure it out though, Freeport is very nice.
Don't Miss: I would think the beaches are the main attraction here if the weather cooperates.

Belize City, Belize

5 out of 5
Loved this port of call. The people here were really nice and not at all pushy.
Don't Miss: The rainforest/nature trail tour at Bacab

Pros: Everything is included in the price

Cons: leaving the ship at the end of the week
