Review summary

At my age Carnival is not for me. I love Royal Caribbean it’s no comparison. I’m speaking for me only. If Carnival is your ship of choice I’m happy for you.

We had an early flight so we got off smoothly, if not we would have still been on the ship trying to wait for deck 7 to be call.

Agree. Good to realise we all prefer different cruise lines. Carnival is great for cruising while school and college in season. It can be hit or miss for shorter cruises. Personally, food was great on Holland. BUT rudest passengers of all my cruises. Hopefully you will give Carnival another try.

Great Cruise!

Excellent cruise with friends!

We was batting a thousand on our two excursions the Atlantis Submarine and Uxmal Mayan ruins was great in fact loved them we had a fun time on the cruise Kevin the Cruise director did a great job the only thing i would say negative was the buffet food
