Creator's Key Takeaways
I just sailed on Carnival's newest flagship, the Marty GR, and this ship completely changed my perspective on what Carnival can deliver.
This ship runs on liqufied natural gas, making it one of the most environmentally friendly cruise ships ever built.
The Martyra stretches over 1,130 ft long and can carry more than 5,200 passengers, making it one of the largest ships in Carnival's fleet.
The Bolt roller coaster is absolutely unique in the cruise industry. This isn't a gimmick. It's a legitimate thrill ride that provides genuine excitement and incredible views.

I just spent a week on Carnival's flagship Mardi Gras, and this ship completely changed my perspective on what Carnival can deliver. This isn't your typical party boat - it's so much more. From the world's first roller coaster at sea to celebrity chef restaurants, here's my complete honest review. The Mardi Gras is Carnival's first LNG-powered ship, making it one of the most environmentally friendly cruise ships ever built. At over 1,130 feet and carrying 5,200+ passengers, this floating city features the BOLT roller coaster (yes, an actual roller coaster!), celebrity chef restaurants from Emeril Lagasse and Guy Fieri, and more entertainment than you could experience in one cruise.
