First time Cruiser I absolutely love the Valor, the fun squad always had something planned for everyone to enjoy on the ship. My favorites were Georgia and Kevin ( Kevin is the Cruise Director for the Valor.

I did get confused about the layout of the Valor and the whole ship was being cleaned all the time.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

The interior rooms are great, but my thing was it wasn't made for four people to be in there at the same time. It was better when there was only two in the room

Ship tip

Don't go crazy on packing bring lounge pants for the morning to go get your coffee or just go see the morning sun, bring a good amount of t shirts

Ports of call

New Orleans, Louisiana

5 out of 5

The getting to the port was amazing. We stayed at the Hamptons Inn Convention Center. They have a cruise and stay package where you can stay the night before and they will have your car parked in the valet lot and they have a shuttle that will take you to the port and when the cruise is done you just call them and the shuttle will come get you. The driver of the shuttle, Mike he asked us for our parking number for our car while we were waiting to leave for the hotel they were already bringing your vehicle to the valet to be picked up by you
