It was an awesome cruise. Just a small complaint that this was a full ship and there were just a lot of people! Understandable since it was during the Thanksgiving break.
Carnival Horizon Cruise Review to Caribbean - Western
A 6 day cruise with 3 port stops covers all aspects of cruising. Totally satisfied with the cruise trip.
Embarkation
3 out of 5
We chose the 1-1:30 boarding time. The portion for enbarkation onto the ship was very smooth but the passenger dropoff, rental car return and return to port was very very stressful. Miami port is not well organized. It was a stressful couple of hours. Best advice I can provide is to select an early boarding window.

Onboard Activities
5 out of 5
Carnival Horizon had Backyard Cricket! Woohoo! It was a wonderful experience to play cricket aboard a moving ship. Also made use of the water slides, skyrides, zipline and the putt-putt golf.
Entertainment

The cruise director was awesome - very energetic and engaging. Stage shows were ok (song and dance shows).

Every person with whom we interacted were very courteous and helpful
Thanks for sharing. There is a website for the Cayman Island port schedule with a calendar showing which cruise ships are in port. Since it is a tender port, this helps deciding if it's worth getting off the ship. On our upcoming trip, there is only one other ship of about 2,000 passengers - 4,000 total on the day we are there. The next day, 5 ships are in port, 17,000 total. I wouldn't get off the ship that day.
