Review summary

My favorite things were Guy’s Burger Joint, Pig & Anchor, Pizzeria Del Capitano, Seafood Shack, Alchemy Bar, main dining room, serenity hot tubs, temperature of pools, Red Fun waterslide, Broadway Beats show, Soulbound show, Celestial Strings show, and the layout of the ship.

Embarkation

1 out of 5
Incredibly slow. They could’ve at least made an announcement being like “hi everyone we’re experiencing technical difficulties, we apologize” or something like that, but this announcement was never made.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
Main dining room was always great. I never ate at the buffet, but I ate at Pig & Anchor, Guy’s Burger Joint, and Pizzeria Del Capitano a lot! I also tried Seafoods Shack and loved it. Also, I loved Alchemy Bar!

Onboard Activities

5 out of 5
The “Red Fun” waterslide was my favorite! Also the pools were a nice temperature. My only complaint is that I wish Carnival Panorama had the deck 5 hot tubs like Carnival Magic.

Entertainment

5 out of 5
Broadway Beats, Soulbound, and Celestial Strings is AMAZING! Rock Revolution is okay. It was my second time seeing Soulbound, i’d already seen it on Carnival Sunrise. Broadway Beats is definitely my favorite.

Ship Quality

5 out of 5
Best layout i’ve ever experienced on a cruise ship! WAY better than Carnival Sunrise. I loved how you can walk all the way across decks 4 and 5. (On Carnival Splendor, Carnival Magic, and Carnival Sunrise you can walk across deck 5 but not deck 4). I found it way easier to find seating at the Limelight Lounge on Carnival Panorama than it was on Carnival Sunrise. Also, I loved how the elevators work.

Disembarkation

Mostly good, although the passport people are jerks. I got yelled at for waiting for my disabled grandma.

Thanks for the review, we are sailing on the Panorama in October. It is our first time on a Carnival ship and I am so excited and a little nervous so reading reviews like this is great.
