New Orleans Cruise Reviews

Carnival Valor was a little disappointing. I had a better time on the Elation and that ship is tiny compared to the Valor. Food in the buffet and dining room was horrible. Burgers, burritos and the Wok was good. Entertainment was ok but needs work. Just not impressed. Love and marriage show was horrible. That’s usually our favorite show of the cruise. Movies were good. Lido entertainment could ...

Safe and drawer under couch were both broken and unusable. Room steward was so over worked he only managed to clean our room 2 out of the 5 days we sailed. They only had one of the four slides open with very limited hours of operation. Very few activities during the day. Weird rules about not allowing food to be taken out of the main dining rooms, even if they take forever to bring the food ...

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 ...

A group I'm a member of booked this ship. Started out with bad experience as the help I signed up for to get a wheelchair bound family member on board did not come to help. Ordered trays of fruit, veggies to our room for my low blood sugar. After 2 days and lots of contacting staff members food never showed up I said just take it off my bill. There was not ONE accessible pool or hot tub so we ...

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 ...

My husband and I sailed from New Orleans to Mahogany Bay, Belize, and Cozumel for 7 days from 7/30-8/06. From the time we went through customs to board the ship until the time we exited through customs off the ship, the passengers were treated like nothing more than cattle moving through stockyards. VERY FEW experiences on the ship were personalized and the staff acted MISERABLE the whole time!! ...

My wife picked this cruise and we did it in the passed and in 2016 we was on the same ship out of Miami when l loss my daughter. But about this current cruise 7/23 there was nothing for the adults to do. Everything revolved around trivia. for a whole week we had the same food Morning noon and night. This was the first time l enjoyed the cruise director Johnny. He was amazing and interacted with ...

Always wanted to do this cruise. Waited over two years hoping Viking would iron out the kinks while they held our money.several changes to itinerary ( bused to Baton Rouge rather than sailing from New Orleans and at the end of the cruise bused from Red Wing to St. Paul). We were ok as Viking picked up the hotel on both ends. The room ( Deluxe Veranda ) was clean and new with a few problems ...

We familiar with Viking from a Rhine River cruise and also from friends who have vacationed with Viking. Their European level of service was known and appreciated. Our cabin: a Penthouse Junior Suite, was nice and roomy with many amenities available. The inviting balcony was unusable for the entire trip due to the loud, noisy, rumbling ventilation outlet adjacent. We cannot recommend this ...

I chose this cruise based on my previous experience with Carnival and the destination. We got on board to back to back disappointments while trying to stay positive. I would say first, the FEW out of control guest who seem to want to make other guest their entertainment are the primary reason we will never take another Carnival cruise. These groups are typically those individuals who laugh and ...
