New Orleans Cruise Reviews

We were so excited for our family cruise and our anniversary. It was a first cruise for most of our group. Being with family and seeing some beautiful places was fabulous but the cruise itself was far from what we expected. Boarding the ship at our scheduled time is a joke we are packed in like sardines and everyone is crowded in such a small space. However once on board we found we could not ...

We all know a certain level of subpar experience is expected with Carnival like food and stateroom accommodations but this sailing was by far the worst in all of my experiences. I have had a lingering feeling for some time Carnival was cutting back on staff and services, starting with turn down at night and food quality (not that it was ever suburb) but that feeling is now glaringly obvious. Post ...

1st time on a cruise. Crew was great. Cabin sucked, bed & couch both uncomfortable to sleep on. All food on board sucked except the Hamburgers and fries. Breakfast suck. No biscuits and sausage gravy.or chicken fried steak foe breakfast. Same cold food over and over again. Not everyone wants Fancy food just good Comfort food. Entertainment sucked and not enough of them. The Entertainment ...

What a nightmare! My husband and I children and grandchildren went on this cruise for a festive holiday. Instead, it was one of the worst cruises we’ve ever had. We have cruised extensively on many different lines. I have never written a review before, but felt I needed to let people know let’s start with embarkation. it was very chaotic, poorly run. No one to tell you where to go and get them ...

This cruise was pretty fun. I like cities and the cruise had an atmosphere of a city in which everyone was trying to have fun. In the way sardines in a can are trying to have fun together. The other guests were the only form of entertainment that was remotely enjoyable on board. The crew was mediocre. While they clearly projected friendliness, they cut every corner possible and only smiled or ...

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. ...

I chose this ship because the terminal was within driving distance. I took my brother on his first cruise. This was my 8th cruise, but the first on Carnival. We had a blast since we have fun regardless of situations. The service on this ship was nonexistent on the pool decks and in seating areas around the ship. I requested two twin beds in the cabin and this was not addressed before we boarded. ...

Some friends of ours planned to go on this cruise so we decided to try out Norwegian for the first time. We normally do Royal. Wow I had no idea what a huge step or leap down it would be. I got food poisoning on the 4th day. They didn’t go to one of the stops because it was too dangerous. Even though two other ships were parked there. The lines were insane. What I had to go through to get my son ...

Firstly on arrival, the queue to get on was very long. It was so hot, no drinks available to the waiting guests. The security shouted out anyone with bottles or any drinks must put them in the bins provided as no drinks allowed on board. This rang alarm bells straight away. when we got our cabin passes we were asked would we like to register a credit card or are we paying cash, since we had the ...

Was really looking forward to this cruise. And was really disappointed. We brought our two daughters on their spring break from college, along with my mother in law. Worst thing, of many bad experiences, was that they lost my daughters bag. And never found it. How do you lose a bag? It’s not like an airport where it goes on the wrong plane. Of course their whole bag system is sketchy. Some ...
