I Tried a Carnival Cruise and It Wasn't What I Expected

I’ve just disembarked a week-long Carnival cruise on a ship that has to be seen to be believed. From a three-hour-long embarkation to my friends being given a full refund because their cabin was so dirty, this trip was full of surprises. ** Do you ever wonder where the ships you’ve cruised on before are currently? I do!! I've been keeping an eye on Carnival Miracle since I disembarked. That's why we've added live cruise ship data with a fantastic 3D mode to TheCruiseGlobe.com. It's completely free to use and you can search for any ship. I have all my past ships showing by default because I like to keep an eye on them. It's such a fun little game. 😂😂 Looking to buy yourself or somebody else who likes to cruise a personalised present?

So when I saw a ship sailing much closer to home, from Portugal to the UK, I thought this would be the perfect chance to give it another go. This cruise was more than twice the price of my first Carnival cruise so I was a bit nervous about that but as I enjoyed the first one I was hoping I would like this trip just as much. I really just wanted to relax, Carnival do call themselves the Fun Ships after all and over 6 million people per year take a Carnival cruise. Carnival are often in the news for things like rowdy behaviour, it isn’t uncommon to hear new stories like ‘two dozen people banned from a carnival cruise after a fight broke out’. My friend Tony puts it nicely when he says ‘carnival seems to have more of these incidents than anyone’. That said I know so many people who love Carnival cruises and most say that they’ve never seen any bad behaviour. I wasn’t worried about fights or the ship itself, I knew that it was old by cruise ship standards but I’ve been on plenty of much older ships in the past so I was sure it would be fine. In reality, the issues we had on this ship weren’t ones that I expected and weren’t even ones I’ve ever experienced before, even on much cheaper cruises. ▶ FREE COURSE.
