Review summary
Ultimately the cruise was a good time. The itinerary and ship were unique.Embarkation
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
Atrium Bar
Was always packed especially when there was a deck party being held here
Piano Bar
The bar tender when I went here was very crabby and made it clear he did not want to be working there.
Canal Grande Restaurant
The service was a little hit or miss depending on the service team. The food was the standard Carnival fare.
PIzzeria del Capitano
The pizza was okay for a cruise ship. Depending on time of day made a difference in freshness. Sailing out of NYC there are a lot better options on shore
Fahrenheit 555 Steakhouse
Food was excellent.
Lido Marketplace
Typical buffet food. The scrambled eggs were a little wet and flavorless.The deli was decent.
Onboard Activities
Guest Services
Both times I had to go here they were very helpful and friendly. I went during the later evening or earlier in the morning to avoid the crowds.
Ropes Course
Looked like fun. However was not allowed to do this as I was over the weight limit by 2 pounds.
Lido Pool
Pool area was way to small.
Entertainment
Teatro Rosso
The bar service was amazing. They could use a few more servers.The production shows were amazing. You do need to get there early to stand in line for seats. Some seats are blocked by support poles.
Dive-In Movies
The pool deck was to small and therefore very limited seating. With the pool deck roof closed there was an echo.

Ship tip
Try and do as much as you can. Above all have fun. After all. "The worst day on a cruise is better than your best day on land."
