I was certainly looking forward to cruising as I am working in a very stressful environment during very stressful times. I selected the New England/Canada cruise with the hopes of relaxing, experiencing some laid back northern cities and escaping from work. The Carnival Victory New England Canada cruise definitely met and exceeded my expectations!

After getting through the NYC traffic at the Port Authority terminal where 4 ships were in port, embarkation by the Carnival was easy with no problems. The staff was friendly and understood our frustration with the traffic congestion. We boarded the ship and were able to go straight to out very comfortable stateroom. We generally book a balcony or suite, but as none were available, I was concerned about the room. It was great and very convenient to everything!

This cruise consisted of mostly elderly passengers. Rarely did we see anyone under 40! Very different for us - but was ok as we met some really nice couples and I was feeling quite young! LOL Read more
