We chose park and ride with Radisson. Worked great for us. Got to port earlier than expected.(noon) There were lines, but they moved quickly. Our cabin was ready so we dropped off our carry ons. We found this ship very clean and nicely decorated. We went with open minds because some of the bad reviews we have read. This was my 20th cruise and my wife's 11th. I hate hearing people gripe about things that are ridiculous. The staff was fantastic. Our cabin steward was great. Thanks Newbon.Our wait staff was outstanding. Thanks Roger and your crew.We tip extra when we get good service. These folks got extra from us.All the staff we came across was friendly and helpful. The food at the buffets was adequate. The food in the dining room was very good.We enjoyed the brunch on sea days. A bit slow, but whats the hurry? Some people just find stuff to complain about.
We usually book our excursions off the ship. Carnival's are overpriced. Sorry Carnival, but it's true. Islands were beautiful, Nassau I can do without. The shows were very good and so were the comedians.No, they weren't the best I've encountered, but they were enjoyable. I realize Carnival has had to cut back in some ways, but what company hasn't? Disembarkation was quick. We chose self assist. I recommend it if you can carry all your luggage. Overall a great great cruise. See you soon Carnival.
