Carnival Sydney (Australia) Cruise Reviews

We did a 10 night cruise. This was our 3rd cruise although our 1st with Carnival. This one was the best!! We were a group of 11 and we arrived in Sydney early in the morning. We had a connecting bus that took us to the ship. Our luggage was taken at the port and sorted out for us. The next time we saw it was in our rooms later that evening. We only had our hand luggage with us. Since we ...

This was our first cruise with Carnival. We chose this cruise to celebrate our wedding anniversary and my wife's birthday. We were very happy with the choice for the following reasons * value for money * friendly and enthusiastic staff throughout the ship * fantastic dining experience in the Empire Restaurant with good quality food, correct and friendly service and amazing entertainment ...

We have sailed on other cruise liners in the past but prefer Carnival, in saying this we much prefer the Spirit to the Legend as it seems to have more atmosphere & is more of - as the ship says - a fun ship & there a far more activities especially trivia which we enjoy playing & the entertainment is better. The cabin staff did an excelent job as did the guest service staff - especially Gabriela, ...

What else can I say but Awesome! Great ship and staff. Departing from Sydney was great as we had time to explore around the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge as some of the people we were travelling with had not been to Sydney previously. Right from the moment you get on board you are treated like family, John are stateroom steward and his team called us by our names straight away which ...

I am one of six sisters' who sailed. The youngest sister was about to join the 'fifties' club hence something new and exciting for us all to do together. We did not choose to explore Sydney before departure as we had lunch and catch up with family living in Sydney. Remarkably embarkation was pretty good considering the long queues. I can't compare as I said my first ever cruise. Dining, Cabin, ...

We chose this cruise as 9 day trip from Sydney to New Caledonia and Vanuatu - to experience for ourselves the cruising experience. Carnival Spirit seemed to suit but we had no real experience with any cruise ship so went largely from reviews like this. It seems all ships have good and bad reviews but Spirit seemed to meet most of our requirements. Our overall experience was very positive, ...

I have always had a great time on the Spirit. It's the staff that keep me coming back, also the islands we visit. I would say that if at all possible to eat at the dining room as it's much less noisy from the people in the buffet area. Also if you want a little quiet time to eat and you can't go out to serenity (over 18 area) then the booths on either side are much quieter. Also I'm not a fan ...

our kids did it for us was not keen at first my wife and i are hooked will be doing another cruise with carnival spirit loved everything about the ship, the service to our cabin was excellent thank you and Wini ,Almen and Gill looked after us well in the emperor lounge the dinning was tops big thank you. The Entertainment and activities certainly kept us entertained right through out the whole ...

Glad I tried this 3 nights cruise. Everything was amazing. Food was delicious. Wini and his team did a very good service at the Emperor Dining. They were all friendly, happy, and very entertaining. They gave us such a fantastic experience in the cruise. I'll recommend my friends and family to book a table with Wini section at the Emperor. Our room was great. We get fresh towels and bed sheets ...

There's something to be said for going aboard as a returning passenger. This was our third time sailing on the Carnival Spirit. An Easter cruise was the perfect antidote to the autumn school holiday craziness with my three teenage daughters. Our two previous cruises were longer South Pacific itineraries so the chance to relax for three nights on board was a great idea. From the moment we ...
