Service and Staff

4 out of 5
Room stewards always do a great job but forgot to give us our free drink coupons. 🙁 Dining staff was friendly. People working around the pool were fun. When you saw fun crew on or off of the ship they were friendly.

Stayed in queen mary. It was nice not having to worry about getting to the ship and waking up seeing it.

Just walked around port area. Had a lot of fun.

Mazatlan, Mexico

5 out of 5
Rented a van for our party of ten. Driver did a great job of showing us all of the area. Hit the rock divers, a beach, a market place. I have to admit I was concerned about this port but felt very safe.

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

5 out of 5
Again rented a large van. Had an amazing day. Thank you carnival for staying longer at the ports. Made us not worry about getting to far from the ship. Nice van and he took us taquilla tasting, saw rock diving, could have zip lined, an excellent restaurant, and stopped downtown and s fun beach.

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Went well but never could really get an answer about bringing alcohol back. Customs lady explained the rules and was really nice.
