Review summary
The cruise was awesome, we loved it. Mardi Gras did not disappoint. This was our first cruise back since Covid and we felt very comfortable the whole cruise. Also would like to say that being there was 5500+ people on the ship, we never felt crowded or encountered long lines. Job well done CarnivalEmbarkation
