Creator's Key Takeaways

the casino is right in the middle of the ship on the same deck as the atrium and the smell of the smoke leaks out more than on any other ship I've been on

the food was really good it came most of the time it came pretty hot that's one of my big pet peeves on a cruise ship is I hate getting served cold food

the heated pools we were able to swim the whole time we didn't think we'd be swimming except for when we were in Port and Baltimore so it was a really great surprise

the staff on the ship uh overall the staff has been really really good on this ship I can't think right now of any complaints we've had about the staff

Welcome aboard the Carnival Pride! ๐Ÿšข In this in-depth review, we explore everything this cruise ship has to offer for cruisers in 2025. From staterooms to dining options to onboard activities and entertainment, weโ€™ve got you covered! #carnivalpride #carnivalcruise #cruisereview We set sail on a Carnival Cruise Line ship, Carnival Pride, from Baltimore, Maryland for a 14-day voyage to Greenland and Canada. The Carnival Pride is one of Carnivalโ€™s Spirit class cruise ships. Built in 2002, she is one of the oldest ships in the Carnival Cruise fleet. The Pride shows some signs of age, despite her recent dry dock and renovation. In this cruise ship review, weโ€™ll talk about how this wear and tear affected our cruise vacation experience. This was our 3rd Carnival Cruise. Weโ€™ve found that each Carnival ship offers a different experience. This is not just because of the different cruise shipsโ€™ layout; the cruise port, sailing length, and cruiser demographics play a big role in the type of cruise you will have. Join us as we take a tour of the ship's best features, including: โœจ **Dining Experiences** - Discover the must-try restaurants and unique cuisine on the Carnival Pride. ๐Ÿ›Œ **Cabins & Suites** - A look at the comfortable accommodations perfect for every traveler. ๐ŸŽ‰ **Entertainment Options** - From Broadway-style shows to lively nightlife, find out what to expect on your cruise. ๐ŸŠ **Activities & Amenities** - Enjoy the pools, spas, and other activities available on deck.
