My family just returned from a nice cruise on the Carnival Valor. We had sailed two years ago on the Carnival Triumph and so we were excited to cruise with Carnival again. The ships were very similar and so it was very easy for us to get acclimated to the Valor. We have cruised with four different cruise lines and have found that they all have pros and cons.
