Kevin (Our cruise director) was really good! We had a great time after we finally got out of New Orleans and away from the rude people there. If the Valor ever moves to a different location, I will gladly cruise on her again!

Ship experiences
Food and Dining
5 out of 5
Ships main dining room was 5 star hands down the absolute best! The food was fantastic. Our wait staff was amazing. NENGAH from Indonesia, Alen from Montenegro and Dewa Putra from Indonesia were 3 of the most awesome waiters you could have ever asked for. They new us all (11 people) by name the 2nd night of our 5 day cruise and they always got us everything we needed stat.

Ship tip
Its a beautiful ship. Explore as much of her as you can!
People were just short and rude yet again at New Orleans. I will NEVER sail out of New Orleans again and I will not encourage anyone to sail out of NOLA either.
I had Dewa my last cruise. He is awesome! Sorry to hear NOLA wasn’t kind to you. Don’t let a few people with a bad day spoil you on her. NOLA can be amazing!
Stay at a swanky boutique hotel like Maison de la Luz (it has a speakeasy). Have beignets at Cafe du Monde. Grab a Muffuletta at Central Grocery. Shopping at UAL, Shoe a go go, and the boutique stores on Jackson Square are awesome! Signature Pimms at Napoleon House. Jazz.
Oak Alley Plantation is incredible, especially when they have re-enactments.
We Love Love Love The Carnival Valor! Agreed with everything nice that you said about that Ship and crew. They are amazing!
(Note: we have never cruised out of NOLA)
Was it just the people at the terminal that were rude or the whole city. Everyone I met in New Orleans were very nice and helpful. Glad you enjoyed your cruise. Valor is a great ship
