My wife and I choose this cruise because we wanted to see Europe and this seems the perfect way to do it. We planed this trip over a year ago and since we had not had a vacation in the last fe years we thought this would be perfect. So here is my impressions I hope this helps give you a different perspective on this cruise and ship. Again this is my perspective and pardon if I come across as ...

I am surprised at the really bad comments. We went as a group of 3 middle aged ladies who shared one balcony cabin, we opted for the sofa bed and two single beds. We had enough room and enough storage space, the cabin was very pleasant and clean. Plenty to do on the ship and children are well catered for. We did not have any of the shore trips organised by the ship although they did say they ...

First time we've cruised with Carnival and I think it will be the last. Nice ship but lacking the wow factor. The dining system is crazy - you have to go and book a time 15 minutes before you want dinner. Sometimes the queue was so long to reserve your allotted time that you ended up having dinner later than you wanted. Who's idea was that? No adults only swimming pool. The serenity area which ...

We chose this cruise due to the itinerary. We love the itinerary and we love the ports. We primarily use the ship as a place to sleep at night after having toured all day. Embarkation was fast and easy. Carnival has larger room and our room was just as promised. We had anytime dining and had wonderful servers. We ate with them every night of the cruise. Borislav and Edris worked extremely ...

We have cruised with a number of cruise companies, the itinary looked great and a new ship. Last year we sailed on Royal Carribeans then new Anthem of the Seas and had a great time, the appeal was a new modern ship,with a good itinary. Overall the cruise was good however. Embarkation. Very poor took over 2 hours to board the ship compared to minutes on recent cruises with other cruise ...

We chose this cruise because of the so called party atmosphere and youngish passengers. this is our 4th cruise having sailed with Royal Carribean, NCL and celebrity. This will be our last time on carnival! We knew the standards would be lower than other ships we have been on but still expected a good level of service from a brand new ship! We have no kids and don't mind a few kids about but ...

It was their newest ship. Arrived 3 days before to explore Barcelona, great idea! The terminal was very well organized. Ship's lobby has very nice artistic colorful center light that changes themes daily. The ship still has some things missing in their standard labeling of exits , staircases. The cabins are basically the same as their other ships, balcony is same, their TV is upgraded, information ...

I chose carnival vista because carnival are one of the few Cruise lines that have a kids club for two year olds. The club was great, the staff were very understanding when my daughter had a few toileting accidents, and gave her lots of cuddles and reassurance when she got upset being dropped off. When I went to collect her she was always all smiles. Circle C, the kids club for 12-14 year ...

I've read a lot of reviews of the Carnival Vista, many of them comparing her to others in the Carnival fleet. I don't really think that is fair, because the Vista really provides a different experience than any other ship I, at least, have been on. I believe when she was designed, the intent was to take as much activity as possible "outside". So no, you don't get the "wow" factor when you first ...

Chose this cruise as a brand new ship and was with Carnival and we had not travelled with them before. I wanted to compare them against NCL RCI and Disney. For me no one has beaten Disney but the pricing is ridiculous. We enjoyed carnival there were pluses and minuses as in anything but the very one thing for me was the entertainment. We are used to "west end" type shows and carnival ...
