Review summary

Although you cannot control the weather, you should have offered even a partial voucher for a future cruise. After a 7+ hour drive from Georgia, we would have taken the voucher and gone somewhere else for our vacation. If we wanted to go to Nassau, we could have gone out of Charleston only two hours from home. Nassau was the last choice we would have made.

King's Wharf, Bermuda Did not visit port

Carnival cancelled our trip and substituted the Bahamas in exchange at last minute (to our great disappointment.... $200 on board credit not enough)

This was our first cruise - even with change in itinerary due to a hurricane, it was fabulous!!
