Carnival New Orleans Cruise Reviews

My husband and I traveled with our two young children (6 and 8). Embarkation was a little long with some unexplained delays but overall not so bad given the sheer volume of people. I do feel as though my suitcases sustained quite a bit of damage while being brought on the ship and to our cabin. We stayed in a four-person cabin with a window (1411). I was worried about the arrangements but it ...

We choose this cruise in order to experience the Western Caribbean. We also took advantage of an extra day in New Orleans before the cruise. We rented a car at the airport ($56+gas for two days). A cab would have been $60 to the cruise port. Our teens enjoyed the activities for their age groups (club) and the adults enjoyed the nightly shows and comedians. We choose the Self-Guided Snorkeling on ...

We sailed on the Dream for a seven day Western Caribean cruise. The cruise was scheduled for two days at sea three ports - Montego Bay, Grand Cayman, Cozumel and another sea day. After the Grand Cayman stop the Captain headed the ship back to New Orleans. He said that there was engine trouble and we could only travel at half speed. Although he apparently knew this when we left Grand Cayman, he ...

I chose this cruise because my wife and I had never been on Carnival but had been on several other cruise lines and we wanted to try the Carnival Dream. I look at the ratings up above and have to laugh. This was by far the worst experience on a vacation we had ever been on and it will be the last with Carnival. First off let me say that the highlight of our trip was knowing our room would be clean ...

Love my cruise and staff. Too many unsupervised kids. Parents was letting their kids run around doing any and everything they could do. Throwing ice cream at each other, pressing all the buttons on the elevator, running as if they were on a play ground. The next time I take a cruise I pray and hope kids are in school and not on the cruise. I think all kids and teenagers should only be allowed ...

We were a group of 5, in two balcony rooms, selected this cruise due to its departing from New Orleans. The boat broke down in transit from Grand Cayman to Cozumel. They could not fix it in time, so we had to spend an extra day at sea, and all they offered us was a 50.00 per person on board credit. Well boo hoo! We had plans for Cozumel and they act like missing one third of the ports is no big ...

This cruise was a gift from our son. The food the first two days and nights were terrible. Thankfully it did get better as the cruise went on. However, one night, for no reason at all and without warning, our dining room seating was changed without our consent. We went from having very hospitable and friendly service personnel to people who barely acknowledged us. We were still waiting on our ...

This cruise was a mommy daughter trip for my daughter and I who also just turned 10 the week prior. We flew down and stayed at the La Quinta in Westbank, which I do not recommend ( dirty rooms and Im pretty sure they had bed bugs) Upside they were really close to port maybe a $9 Uber ride to port. This was my first cruise so I do not have much to compare it to. As soon as we got on the boat we ate ...

Well this was my first time on Carnival, have cruised before on other lines and it will definitely be my last. First time having a balcony and when booked, I made sure to tell the booking agent from Carnival that it was important to me to have a nice balcony and nice location - she encouraged me to use the guaranteed option and not pay the extra to pick your cabin, since they all start on the 6th ...

We booked this cruise with extended family and friends (19 in all). Every employee we interacted with was pleasant and seemed to be trying their best to do their job. In that regard, it was very much what we expected. There were also many pleasant surprises - the Guy's Burgers, Guy's BBQ, and Blue Iguana Cantina food choices (Finally! Good Mexican food on a cruise ship!), while not numerous, were ...
