Review summary

Will not book on the triumph again. If the next boat isn’t better for carnival, looks like I’m heading back to Royal Caribbean. I was not pleased at all with this trip.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

1 out of 5
Same food for 5 days got real old. Staff were rude and slow

Onboard Activities

1 out of 5
Very little to do other than shows at night.

Entertainment

1 out of 5
Seems like they scraped the bottom of the barrel to find any old drunk with a guitar and a terrible singing voice

Children's Programs

No kids with us

Service and Staff

1 out of 5
Staff would talk amongst themselves rather than serving drinks or food

Ship Quality

1 out of 5
Old ship that has not been well maintained over last few years. Many broken tiles in pool area. Rust all over the boat, and carpets are stained like a frat house

Cabin / Stateroom

1 out of 5
Beds are old and worn out. Bath had stains on floor, shower, and toilet. Many missing tiles and rust in bathroom

Ship tip

Find a way to book on another ship. Carnival had really upped their game about ten years ago to compete with the better CruiseLines. Looks like they have gone back to garbage.

Ports of call

New Orleans, Louisiana

4 out of 5
As advertised

Cozumel, Mexico

Same as it’s always been. Enjoyed the fishing

Progreso (Merida), Mexico

2 out of 5
Go to the Silcer all inclusive offered by autoprogresso. It was nice and about the only place you will feel safe in this dirty little town

Disembarkation

4 out of 5
Off the boat quick and orderly
