Review for a Europe - Western Mediterranean Cruise on Carnival Magic

Our cruise on the Carnival Magic started off on a bad note. When we checked in we were told that the itinerary was changed. Instead of going to Naples Italy, the ship was diverted to Marseilles,France this was due to a worker strike in Italy. I think we should have been notified prior to the departure date so we had time to change our plans. I do not hold Carnival at fault for this situation, in ...

We sailed on the magic on sept 4 th from Barcelona, having done the carriibean the year before the first thing my husband and I noticed was---- the food wasn't up to our last cruise,so this time we ate in the dining room, we did find we got warmer food, as on our last cruise the food was cold every night
Our balcony state room was fantastic--
We thought it was us expecting too much with the ...

About us: Australians on a month-long European tour, two teenage daughters along for the ride.
The ship: Big, glitzy and new. Reminded me of a gaudy theme park but it still had it's own unique charm. Despite the huge number of passengers it rarely
seemed crowded, at least in the places we frequented. The hideous decor was a bit of a shock for us after spending 4 days in stylish and beautiful ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 40s
One of the main factors is selecting the cruise was the price and the fact that it was quite port intensive. Our party was made up of 4 adults - none of us having ever cruised before and two in our group not having traveled overseas before. We hit a slight hiccup when we arrived at the cruise port - but it was sorted out quickly and before we knew it we were on board. We were very impressed with ...

We were traveling around Europe for two months and decided it would be nice to break the trip with a few days of living the easy life and not being hassled by street beggars, pickpockets and conmen continually trying to fleece us as we toured.
But they were on the Carnival Magic waiting for us!
I won't give a long winded tirade of the way Carnival Magics staff continually harass those on board ...

There were many positives & negatives about our 9 day Mediterranean cruise on Carnival's Magic.
First off let's get the negatives out of the way...The transfers from the airport to the hotel a day before the cruise was a nightmare. Everyone was cranky & tired after flying all night. We were made to wait in the very hot airport (haven't they heard of A/C in Barcelona?) standing up against a ...

As seasoned cruisers who have travelled the world extensively and who rated the Carnival Liberty as our favourite cruise a few summers ago out of Civitavecchia (Rome), it was a shock to experience our Cruise from Hell aboard Carnival's new Magic from Barcelona. We knew it was a big ship with about 4600 passengers and 1400 crew members but we expected smooth sailing with lots of amenities. The ship ...

My wife and I were traveling with our 8 and 6-year old daughters. This was our 20th cruise, 4th on Carnival (last in 2003). We've sailed mostly on RCI and Celebrity.
Below are our impressions of the ship, preceded by a link to a video tour of the ship that I filmed while onboard.

Embarkation: Very well organized and quick.
Balcony Suite: Roomy and spacious. NOTE: We thought there was a problem with our AC and called maintenance. They said it was normal as it was set at 72 degrees. We were very warm in the room and it never got very cold. So if you are hot natured - this will be very uncomfortable for you
Food: MDR - Southern Lights: 6 out of 10. Italian restaurant: ...
