Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
It was good-fair, always the soups were very peppery & salty. They try to accomodate different variations of same foods. But some were a flop! The svc was good. The specialty restaurants were super. Foods & Svcs

Onboard Activities

3 out of 5
The 1st couple that taught everyone dancing was good. Lots enjoyed couples dancing lessons. Other activities was ok was the pools/hot tubs. Didn't liked the punchline comedy acts, very fair-poor, too many repeated people shows.

Entertainment

4 out of 5
Loved the production shows! Tho they only had the most 5 for the month away. The 1-person singers some was ok. Liked the couple w/the band @ some nights.

Service and Staff

4 out of 5
The room steward was very attentative & we gave a decent tip. Other than that everyone was ok. The workers were very good in keeping the places clean. Workers from food stations were very good in replenishing food & utensils & keeping tables clean readily.

Ship Quality

Ports of call

Singapore

4 out of 5
We flew 3 days before sailing, Us10 people. Did our own sight-seeing. Marina Bay Sands, Orchard Rd, Little India, Chinatown, & different locations.....

Phu My (Ho Chi Minh City), Vietnam

3 out of 5
Did a excursion. We saw that place from rundown to city life. Tour guide had said we go to a 5star hotel & VIP lounge to lunch & drink famous Vietnamese iced coffee, maybe in his eyes was? It equals to a Holiday Inn, Hilton, or Mariott in the USA. & we didn't get the iced coffee[was no VIP lounge] from excursion.

Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia

3 out of 5
an excursion We10 went. The village part & city areas. All was different & nice. Very tropical!!

Manila, Philippines

2 out of 5
An excursion we didn't go. Poor managemt on executed to go. Got refunded bc of it.

Guam, Mariana Islands Did not visit port

Was bypassed this location! Due to 2 families illness, ship had made a judgemt call to rush for helping those in need. Understandable but Carnival should have compensated passengers w/money refund bc of missing 1 port due to unforseen circumstance.

Cross International Dateline

4 out of 5
Ship had made a pt to go to upper deck to do count down. experienced time change w/having 2 Sundays

Honolulu, Oahu

4 out of 5
Us10 did our own thing. We all had the pleasure to visit this island before.

Long Beach (Los Angeles), California

4 out of 5
