Carnival Legend Cruise Reviews - Reviews

Loved the entire cruis e and excursions. Alaska best cruise of the 27 I have been on. Can't wait to go back

This is definitely a must do, so much that we r heading back on the carnival freedom in 2022,

I would go again, only make sure I get a different room.

If you enjoy nature and wildlife, this is definitely the cruise for you. Pictures cannot do it justice. Thoroughly enjoyed the naturalist that was on board during the cruise!

A bucket list trip. The sights and sounds we saw will never be forgotten. Even our high school and college boys enjoyed this trip.

Fun and Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would surely do it again. We went in early August and weather was absolutely beautiful. No rain but a jacket felt good. I purchased a hooded parka on the ship for $40.00. Has Carnival logo and pretty good quality too. Glaciers are melting at a fast rate. Don’t wait and miss out.

Great cruise would do it again... bucket list cruise

I will do this trip again without a doubt. It was fun and beautiful.

Absolutely loved it. The crew, the fun directors, the people were all fantastic. Will travel with Carnival again for sure. The food, and beverages (alcoholic especially) were all brilliant.

Returned from Hawaii on the beautiful Carnival Legend yesterday after 19 days. I can't say enough good things about the crew...amazing friendly informative caring professional to say a few... the food was great, there was so much to do if that's what you wanted...the ship was spotless and well maintained. Captain Guiseppi was awesome...thankyou again Carnival...

We did the Vancouver to Hawaii cruise Sep 2018. Loved it! Great mid sized ship! Easy to move about the ship. Terrible wi-fi and internet speeds but it was nice to be able to disconnect and have an excuse for it :) Food was pretty good but not the highlight. This is my 2nd time cruising with Jen Baxter as the CD. Loved her and the rest of the Team! The boat had a very relaxed vibe. Great cruise!

Terrible worst cruise I have ever had!!!!!! Cabin temperature was either extremely cold or extremely hot the entire 11 days. We had a bad nasty sewage swell in the cabin mostly during nights. All of the above was reported but never corrected. We also became ill with stomach pain, fever, coughing; my sister ended up with bronchitis and I developed a sinus infection and cough.

I last sailed on Carnival in 2012. I’m sorry to say that the quality of the wine and food has gone down quite a lot. I don’t think I will sail on Carnival again.

Would love to go again.My son and I had a wonderful time.The worst part was flying home from Honolulu to Pennsylvania.

Our cruise was x Sydney, 17th December 2018, but its not listed on ShipMates list, so I had to choose another sailing date to get the review listed. I don’t want this to be read as a negative review, but hoping Carnival could take the criticism on board and make an enjoyable cruise, a great cruise. This was our 11th cruise holiday (Cunard, 2xRoyal Caribbean, 2x Princess, MSC, 2x P&O Aust, P&O UK and Carnival Caribbean). So we have other cruises to compare this with. We were warned Carnival Australia was considered more budget conscious, and we were happy with that, but didn’t expect their penny pinching to be so blatantly obvious. It started within minutes of us boarding the ship and making our way to our stateroom. Our room attendant welcomed us and showed us around, before he asked if we’d like our room serviced in the morning, OR the afternoon. All previous cruises, our room has been serviced twice a day. Not on this ship. For breakfast I like a muesli. In the Unicorn buffet, there were Corn Flakes, Rice Bubbles, Cocoa Pops, All Bran. No muesli. So on the 1st morning, I asked, just in case I had overlooked it. I was told yes, they had it over at the “Continental” counter. Oh yes they had it, but it was hidden under the counter, out of sight. Some days I was told they’d run out, then it reappeared the next day. So I spoke to a crew member dressed all in white (unsure of his position, but he was involved in the restaurant or the food). I then got it every morning after that. But it was always hidden, under the counter. The only reason I can think why it was hidden is muesli is a lot more expensive than the other cereals available. It was summertime. Think of all those lovely summer fruits. Strawberries, apricots, nectarines, peaches, plums, pineapple. Yum. But not on this ship. At the breakfast buffet you had the choice of various types of watermelon, prunes and I recall canned peaches. I did see whole apples, oranges and pears. Guess what. The other summer fruits cost more. I like kiwifruit with my muesli. Not on this ship. Prior to the evening dinner, we would always go to a bar for a drink. Most other ships, we’ve been given complimentary nibbles with our drinks. It doesn’t have to be much – just a saucer full – but not on this ship. Lunchtime, I like to have a salad. Yes, they had lettuce and tomato, grated carrot, corn etc, but nothing special. I cannot exactly remember now, but I was struggling to find other foods to put on my plate. Before bedtime, I like a cuppa tea and a bikkie. I’d go to the Unicorn buffet and get a cuppa tea but there was nothing else to nibble on except a freshly made pizza!!! During the day they had nice little cookies available to have with a cuppa, but not later in the evening. Whynot? They had a kiosk machine guests could check their onboard account. Opening a new bank account would be easier. I thought the machine was going to ask for a blood sample. Ridiculous. We gave up. A suggestion box in Guest Services area may have been helpful. Some guests complained some of the dishes served at Truffles Restaurant were never hot. By the time they were delivered to the table, they were warm+. I personally didn’t have a problem with this, but some did. ON THE POSITIVE SIDE. We did have an issue with some noise in our room during the early hours of the morning. Anytime from 2am – 4.30am. We spoke to neighbouring rooms and they heard it as well. We could never pinpoint its origin exactly, but our guess was it was coming from the Unicorn buffet (we were the floor below it) and the noise was travelling through the air conditioning system. When we contacted room services, Carnival Legend never questioned our reports and compensated us very generously. We assume it’s an ongoing issue for guests in these rooms. Everything was clean and tidy on the ship, all the staff were excellent and I was happy with the food in Truffles Restaurant. Would I go Carnival Legend again? YES I would (but if there was another cruise line doing a similar cruise, I would choose the other cruise line). I think Carnival could improve some of the things I’ve mentioned, without costing them too much extra. An ‘enjoyable cruise’, could become a great cruise.

One of the best cruises we go on. We have cruised over 15 times and Carnival is our favorite.

This was our dream cruise and lived up to our expectations!

Had an amazing time of the Legend. The newer amenities that were added were noticed (food areas, main lobby). I am not sure if they also updated the mattresses, but considering it is not your own bed, my whole family slept great! Since this is a smaller ship, you get more of a personal experience with the staff and the other people sailing. One recommendation would be to get to dinner early to get a table or you will be waiting, even with anytime dining, for larger parties. Since there is only one dining room for anytime it can take time (and I think the longest we waited was 25 minutes). We did have a party of 11 though! :)
