Creator's Key Takeaways
I've sailed on more cruise ships than I can count, but the Carnival Pride still manages to surprise me every time I step aboard.
The Pride launched back in 2002, making it one of Carnival's more mature vessels. But don't let that fool you into thinking it's outdated.
The Guys Burger Joint is a real standout, serving up some of the best burgers I've had at sea.
The adults only serenity retreat is a gamecher if you want to escape the family chaos.
