Creator's Key Takeaways

We thought it was a really beautiful ship. It we were lucky in that it had undergone a dry dock um between the time that we booked it and the time that we sailed.

The food overall was was pretty good. We don't tend to do the buffet a lot except for breakfast.

The service uh speed of service was much better than it had been on the last few cruises that we had done.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book excursions through Carnival for guaranteed return to ship.
Check out the steakhouse bar on Carnival Legend for a nicer selection of spirits.
Use the hub app to select disembarkation time and manage bags.
