This was our first time on a Carnival cruise -and it was our last time. Never again. We have been on many other cruises. This one had no decent shows, overpriced excursions that were a complete waste of time and money, and everything was so unorganized!
The photos taken by the professional photographers were very poor quality and extremely dark.
When we got on the ship I went to book an ...
The ports of call were incredible. We especially loved Tallinn, Estonia. The ship was ok. We enjoyed the main restaurant. The entertainment was not really for us and we found it to be all too repetitive for a 12 day sailing. Only about six movies made it into the dive-in movies lineup. They were mostly superhero films which we were not interested in. The movies in the rooms were also pretty ...
I have cruise with Carnival four time in 6 years. It is normally a great experience. My last crews was not so. 1st. I was told I would have a $200.00 credit to cruise again, I never received the credit. When I ask, I was told it was given to another party of my group who was on there first cruise. Secondly, my toilet would not flush, I had to wait four hours for someone to come, I had to use a ...
I will start with the ship interior design; as you can see from the attached pictures right outside of our cabin on all the walls, there are tons of inappropriate pictures and there's a huge nude statue in the middle of the ship. We have a 7 years old daughter who I have to explain that to her.
That ship should not be a family friendly instead you can state during booking that it is adult only ...
Day 1: We arrived onboard around 1pm, I am disabled and a little needed help boarding the boat, no lines and they totally ignored me. I asked 3-4 Carnival emplyees entering the terminal and they just ignored me and waved me through. I made it up the ramp with the help of my son (thank goodness). We went right to our cabin and it was dirty, there was a dirty black line down the center of each ...
Lack of being able to contact somebody and speak to them about queries.
Our travel agent advised us to look on Carnival website. We did this which was confusing on occasions as Covid testing requirements in one place just said a covid test and in another stated a PCR which was a lot more expensive.
Check in was quick and efficient, probably due to filling in details online prior to boarding ...
We have 40+ cruises under our belts. Our back to back cruises on Carnival Pride were the worst ever!
EXCURSIONS: Poor planning, standing in long lines for 1+ hrs, excursions cut short due to preventable delays leaving the ship.
FOOD: overcooked/undercooked and frequently served luke warm or room temperature and... one-time I was served eggs at refrigerator temperature.
RESTAURANT ...
From start to finish this holiday was awful and caused me more stress than I ever want to experience again.
Before going we had to fight for every bit of information, we couldn't plan anything as we just couldn't get the information we needed.
On arriving on board I was very excited as so many people had such great stories about cruising, only to find an old, tired and worn ship that had ...
When we first boarded we experienced horrible service. Workers were rude. If you look too young to be able to buy anything they will treat you like you are not even there. So make sure when you are talking to the workers you put on a nice dress and a diamond necklace so that they will treat you with respect. The detail on the avtivities on the cruise were misleading. Dont trust anything that says ...
This was the worst cruise my wife and I were on from a dirty ship to cold food we asked our room steward twice for a mattress cover and never got it the only good food was in the steak house,which you hD to pay for. The entertainment was not even third rate. You could not even get orange juice after 10am when we got back we sent a letter to the customer relations department,and they were supposed ...
