Review summary

Wonderful way to spend time together as a family. Two of the three kids that joined are adults. The cruise allowed us to do our own things and then come together for excursions and meals.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Had the worst time trying to get COVID test results. Wound up having to get three members of our group tested twice. Suggest 72 hours since all too many test places cannot get results in 48 hrs. This is no fault of carnival - just the hassle of COVID.

Testing has become a real hassle, I agree. Glad you enjoyed your cruise in spite of that.
