It was a good cruise to take newbies on but I will not do that trip again. And I will repeat that Carnival should take a hard look at the games played on the Invisible boat excursion (shameful).

Really enjoyed the piano bar. Too bad she is routinely interrupted by servers going through the area to deliver drinks. She handled it like a pro though.

Not at all satisfied with the invisible boat excursion. Rooster the guide was fine but the rest of the trip was very disappointing.

Wonder what was disappointing on the boat ride tour? Too clean? Too dirty?
