Review summary

The excursions were the reason for the trip..pick wisely!!

Large amount of walking on uneven walkways. .heat issue in August..

Excursions by Carival are 50 people on large bus..moved around based on bus access which means dropping off further..from site.

excursions smaller number 6-9 with smaller vans that can get closer to site. Only problem is guide difficult to find...on site only 5 min before pick up..

We had excellent cabin. Great assistance in cruise arrangement.

Thank !!

Sounds like we made wise decision to pre-book our private (small group) excursions thru Viator. We sail Oct 1, 2016. 25 days & counting 😀

Booked every excursion with third party before we left and every excursion was excellent, very inexpensive and fully customizable based on our activity desire. No good reason to ever follow the herd and use carnival for excursions.
