My girlfriend and I just returned from Miami last night after a great vacation on the Conquest. We have been on other cruises before with NCL and Princess. We went with another couple who are close friends of ours and this was their first time. They had a great time as well.

The ship itself was quite nice. There was a bit of wear and tear, but not enough to distract from the overall ship experience.

The food was excellent. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of food and quantity of options. Guys burgers were great. Blue Iguana tacos were awesome. Buffet was fine, I didn't eat there a whole lot, but not because it was bad. There were just better options in my opinion. 24 hour pizza was good too. Main dining room experience was awesome. I looked forward to it each night. Just great! Four of the nights they had a cold fruit soup as an appetizer option. IT WAS THE BEST! I've read other reviews about how people didn't like the food but I really can't see how. My favourite food experience though was the Taste Bar. It was great to wander over to dinner and stop off there for a fancy little appetizer beforehand. Unfortunately though it was only open four of the nights, which was a big bummer. Carnival should have it open every night, it was soooo good! Read more
