Carnival Valor Cruise Reviews

CONS So this was our first cruise the food was terrible. we an my wife had upset stomachs the whole time.The best thing in our opinion was the salad and we like eating over here. The first night on the boat they did not have the a/c on and we about sweat to death trying to sleep naked on top of the covers. They tried to charge us an extra $160 for tips after we were tipping like $5 for 2 ...

This was my very first cruise. It was a gift from a friend it was a spare of the moment trip. She asked me to go with her on the Friday that we got out for Thanksgiving break. She told me we were leaving that night to go to Galveston and we was going to sail out on the Saturday. She asked me to go on a cruise with her. I had a GREAATTT Time I can not wait to go on another. Next time I would like ...

We loved our vacation. We have cruised many times. We are always treated exceptionally. The atmosphere was very calm and relaxed. Will cruise again when school is in session, I believe it's the best time to go. The studio show was very entertaining. We also enjoyed the cruise in movies and the popcorn made it feel like we were at a driving movie. We had incredible servers at the main dinning ...

I have been on at least 7 Carnival cruises. We picked the Valor as my boyfriend has family in the New Orleans area and we were looking for a cruise out of this port. We took a 4 day cruise with one port of call in Cozumel. We had been on the Glory before which left out of NOLA and I believe is the same size ship. Here's my take on the ship/cruise: Pros: This port is super easy to get in and ...

I chose this ship Carnival Valor because Carnival always has multiple things to do on its ship comedy show, trivia games , deal or no deal. The carnival valor felt very warm overall in many areas throughout the ship, throughout the length of the trips making it very uncomfortable for guests. My room itself was measuring at 80 degrees the first day we arrived. I had to request to be switch ...

We chose this cruise because we were invited by friends and we have cruised on other Carnival cruises before with great experiences. We were disappointed to see the rough shape of the ship. The carpet is very worn and dingy. The windows were cloudy and hard to see out of, the decore is very out of date and reminded us of Disneyland's "It's a small world" ride. The main dining menu had very little ...

Having been on Carnival Cruises before several times, I knew what to expect and had tempered expectations as this is not my favorite cruise line. We had to choose a last minute vacation that we could drive to and not need a passport. I was pleasantly surprised by a few things and we really enjoyed our family time but we will not be returning.... Embarkation - Departing from New Orleans ...

We selected a Carnival Valor cruise, because the New Orleans port was easy for all of us to get to and a five-night cruise seemed to be the right length for both the first-time cruisers and the "gold status" cruisers. The ship was packed, and you could really notice that on embarkation day and in between the end of early dinner and the beginning of late dinner, as well as at some of the bars in ...

I chose this cruise because it departed from New Orleans, home of my daughter and grand daughter, an 8 year old. I wanted her to have a fun time exploring the ship and enjoying the daily activities of cruising, so I wasn't concerned that it was full of children's activities and toys or the fanciest ship with best food. The trip began with ease as we checked in at our scheduled time without ...

This is the sixth cruise we have taken with Carnival. This was BY FAR the worst cruise we have ever taken. * The Valor appeared to be a run-down, aging ship. Stats show it to be 19 years old but appeared much older. * We voiced our dissatisfaction to Guest Services mid-cruise but never received any follow up to our concerns. * Our last cruise was aboard the Mardi Gras and it was great. ...
