Carnival Whittier Cruise Reviews

Our first cruise to Alaska and I can not say enough good things about it! I was expecting a lot and it did not disappoint. Having cruised the Caribbean many times, this cruise was more laid back and generally has an older crowd on average. This was a good thing though, as we did not want the "party crowd" on this particular cruise. Don't get me wrong, there was a lot to do both on and off the ...

Everyone should experience Alaska at least once in their life time. This was our first cruise and our first time to Alaska. This trip was the best vacation we have ever had and we cannot wait to go back! First I would like to review the ship. The Spirit is a beautiful ship that was very easy to navigate. Her overall condition was excellent..She sparkled and shined. Our cabin was a corner aft ...

The itinerary was why we chose this cruise. (Did the Vancouver RT on Celebrity with most of the same family in '92.) Traveled with a group of about 20 family and close friends. Alaska is a port intensive cruise, and most anything one does while in port will be fun. I have decided to concentrate my review on the ship, line, and Carnival cruise experience. Arrived in Anchorage two days before to ...

for a little back ground on myself im a typical 23yr. old male college kid living in Texas i went on this cruise with my parents and sister and her husband after reading the reviews on here and planning everything i wanted to do and see for months the day finally came and off we went. for some reason carnival placed my parents on different planes different stops and different times considering ...

Awesome, Amazing, Spectacular, Breathtaking, Majestic Alaska...Words do not do her justice. Embarkation We flew to Anchorage early on the day of our cruise, took a taxi to town and dropped our luggage at the museum where our independent tour bus operator stowed it for our trip to Whittier. We toured the area on foot and walked to the mall to buy shoes since I neglected to pack them. We enjoyed not ...

We started our trip out of North Carolina on Jun 7th, we had a stop over in Memphis, Seattle and finally Anchorage........the flights were ok, but an all day process, which we expected. The bus from Anchorage to the port of Whittier proved delightful and the bus driver (Jason) explained all little tide bits of info about Anchorage. What a breathtaking ride it was. Weather was a little overcast, ...

My wife, our two sons (19 and 16) and I cruised on the Carnival Spirit leaving from Whittier on June 21, 2006 and headed south to Vancouver. We did a 1 week land tour that I planned myself before the cruise but that is a subject of a different review. Weve been on several other cruises, all in the Caribbean. Boarding was easy. We boarded around 1:00pm on Wednesday and spent the day resting from ...

Carnival Spirit May 24 - May 31, 2006 Alaska Cabin 8182 We used cruise line booked airfare for our journey. The cruise line booked my family of 3 with 2 other families on the same reservation and had seat assignments all over the plane. It was hard to get seat assignments changed because we were part of a larger group and the airline reservation agents had trouble separating us from the group. ...

We arrived in Anchorage a week early to visit our daughter who is in the Air Force and is stationed at the Air Force base there, saved on our hotel bill anyway. We did rent a car from Thrifty, a great deal, a Chrysler 300 luxury sedan, for only $99 dollars (unlimited mileage) for the week. We did a lot here with our daughter. We drove to Seward, Alaska and took the eight hour Kenai Fjord ...

This was our 12th cruise with Carnival since 1998 with our 2 sons. Embarkation was a breeze. We used Carnival to transfer us from Anchorage (the Hilton) to Whittier. We found the ship to be clean and beautiful. The staff was excellent. Our room, with an wonderful view from our balcony, was spacious and our cabin steward was perfect. Our sons have outgrown Camp Carnival, but the CC staff has ...
