This was our first cruise since covid, but my sixth cruise over all and fourth cruise on Carnival. So from the beginning. We decided to book this trip last minute after suffering two deaths in the family as a way to decompress from the losses. So in September we started looking for a cruise out of Galveston being we reside in Texas and didn't want to fly to Florida. Even though we wanted to take ...

We choose this cruise to celebrate thanksgiving and a family birthday. It was a terrible disappointment. The food in the dining room was atrocious. Not good on the lido buffet either. The steak house was passable. The atmosphere in the steakhouse is nice. My importantly we had a medical issue at 1:00am. The medical clinic is closed. So if you have emergency in middle of night this is not ...

What a change in the food from November on the Glory. My wife and I how does a chef mess up onion soup, or mushroom soup ? That is only the beginning. We ate in MDR, the other dining room, buffet, Guys Burgers, the Deli, Blue Iguana.Service was SLOW in MDR. Does not appear to be enough staff working. One night it took 2 1/4 hours to get our dessert. We have been on 40 cruises. Boy has the food ...

My husband and I was looking so forward to going on a cruise this year since we havn't cruised since 2019 because of Covid. This was our 14th cruise with Carnival and it was by far the worst. We started cruising in 2009 and a lot of things have changed since then. But it has changed drastically since 2019. They seem to be short staffed with some them being rude and disrespectful. I have never been ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 20s

First cruise and I can honestly say this will be my last trip going on carnival dream . I wouldn’t recommend to anyone it’s more so an older cruise. The excursions are not in order like they should be. The WiFi goes in & out. The tv signal doesn’t stay on. They replay the same stuff over in over. The events on ship aren’t worth going to mostly. The workers are courteous. But they don’t know there ...

First Time Cruiser • Age 40s

This was my first cruise ever in my life and will unfortunately be my last! I was very discouraged in so many things on this ship. First the check in process in Galvaston TX was a cattle call with no organization and the agents were rude and just screamed at you for you to get in line. That was the first impression. The food was good as long as you ate in the resturant every night. The rest of the ...

We have taken a total of 11 cruises, both nearby and all around the world. This was our 4th with Carnival and will most likely be our last. For a short 3 to 8 day getaway, we liked the 3 hour drive to Galveston for boarding, but thankfully Princess and another line are servicing that area now. Carnival food was terrible food at the buffet, dining room, and I paid $84 extra at the steak restaurant ...

The lack of good service on this cruise was ridiculous! Workers pushing carts would plow you down if you didn’t get out of the way! Who ever shouted the loudest got served next at bars because there was no orderly que. The much-marketed Guy Fieri BBQ restaurant was closed most of the days of our cruise. The food in the buffet was horrible…it was over cooked or undercooked, meat or chicken was ...

2-5 Cruises • Age 50s

This was my 5th cruise. My 3rd with Carnival and it was absolutely horrible. It has been 4 years since my last cruise and this experience has left me with never wanting to take my vacation on a cruise. Embarkation has significantly improved and moved very quick. We boarded the ship about 12:20 and were not able to get to our rooms until 1:30, which meant we had to pack the luggage we did not ...

We chose this cruise because we had not been to the Keys yet. We have cruise many times in the past but typically to the Caribbean. The course was altered due to weather. I understand that, but they knew prior to departure, and should have offered customers the opportunity to reschedule and still receive what they paid for...which was a trip to the keys and Bahamas. Who wants to pay for a ...
