Not the cruise that we booked. We went to four different ports because of engine problems. Very disappointing.

Review summary

The overall cruise was great. It was very disappointing that we couldn't go to the ports that we played for. We could have done the ports that we went to for a lot less money.

Good time on ship staff friendly

Disappointing change of itinerary

Carnival changed our itinerary after we boarded because the ship only had one working propeller
