Review summary

The cruise overall was fun, great onboard food and services, however I recommend the tour excursion of beach/town be removed as part of carnival offered excursions. It does not represent what carnival does best which is fun at sea with great ports of call.

Embarkation

3 out of 5
The embarkation was slow with little communication as to why was taking so long, standing in the heat for well over an hour. I suffer from chronic pain and I also saw how other older passengers were struggling with that too.

The town and beach tour was not what was offered, they were late, the beach was a bunch of rocks, town restrooms bad. I dont recommend it.

I think embarkation needs some work, too. Getting everyone checked in should be able to be done in such a way that it does not feel like a cattle call. On our last cruise they kept telling us to sit down like we were middle school students.
