I went on this cruise with a large group and had a pretty fun time. Ship staff were all polite, efficient and friendly and our room was clean and comfortable. Carnival offered a great variety of tours for every activity level/ability at each port and I enjoyed Cozumel, Belize and Costa Maya. I felt 6 nights was the perfect length for travel. An additional plus - there were very few kids onboard as ...
I will start with the ship interior design; as you can see from the attached pictures right outside of our cabin on all the walls, there are tons of inappropriate pictures and there's a huge nude statue in the middle of the ship. We have a 7 years old daughter who I have to explain that to her.
That ship should not be a family friendly instead you can state during booking that it is adult only ...
OMG, We booked cruise with two other couples who had picked the port near where they live, tampa. At the time I was very excited to go since we had not been on a cruise since Jan 2020. I had read a few reviews before hand, it was noted that the ship was upgraded in 2019. Well, not sure what was upgrade ( added the slides??) We were on the Empress deck with a balcony, the first thing we notice our ...
This was an 8-person family cruise (wife, two daughters, son-in-law, three grandsons and myself) onboard the Carnival Paradise last December. My wife and I cruised with Royal Caribbean in December 2021 and were trying to book with them again, but Carnival was the only cruise line that we could get to line up with all our schedules (SIL is active-duty Army, daughters have active careers as well). ...
Since i was born and raised in the panama canal zone i went back after 7 years to go through a lockage in gatun...awesome time ..the narrator terrible !!!
Stop at limon costa rica first class dump do not waste your time getting off unless you want to stretch your legs.
Cayman island is always a nice place to visit. no you do not need a tour bus, take a local bus go around all the ...
Buyer beware: I bought praying cards and bracelets in the store on board the ship. The prices for BOTH items rang up for more than the sticker price. It was embarrassing to hold up the line while multiple staff members figured out how to fix the charges.
In the tobacco shop, I asked how many cartons of cigarettes people were allowed to bring back to the U.S. tax free and was told 8 cartons. ...
We did our first carnival cruise right before covid was a thing on the liberty. It was a wonderful experience. I saw the paradise reviews and decided to take a chance since its out of Tampa and we live close. It honestly wasn't horrible. I'll start was cons...going into the buffet area is just annoying. My husband couldnt get the drink package without me getting it too and i dont drink. And there ...
Myself and boyfriend took our 4 children on the carnival paradise on 10/13/2022-10/17/2022 for their first cruise. When we got on the ship the staff was very welcoming and nice. Day 1 on the ship wasn't bad but the food in the lido dining area was disgusting the only decent thing was pizza pirate. Once I got my luggage I opened up our suitcase to put our soda in the fridge and our soda was gone. ...
And that's a good thing. While Carnival is the Fun Ship, some have written that it was too much. I disagree. All in all, it was one of the better ships (of more than 10) that I have sailed and my first Carnival in over 10 years (switched from RC due to the pricing and itinerary). The 2 days at sea allowed us to enjoy the ship and we did.
Ocean view cabin (M202) was more than adequate with the ...
We have sailed on over 20 cruises with Carnival over the past 20 years. We are Platinum level. We have a total of over 40 cruises including other cruise lines. This is the first cruise with Carnival in over five years. We did not know what to expect.
Embarkation was as quick. Our check in time was between 1200 and 1230. We got at check-in at 1200 hours. We were sitting in the ship eating by ...
