This ship has ALOT of movement, much more than expected. Had sealegs for two days after departing. Crew was being held prisoner by Carnival Corp in the bowels of the ship, could hear them cry out in agony...made the ship sound ghostly. This is an OLD ship, one of Carnival's oldest and noisiest. Stay away from the back of the ship, the droning of the engines will drive you mad. If you're addicted to cruising and want a poor experience to break you of it, this is your ship. Shore Excursions offered by Carnival were 2X more expensive than if you had paid for them at the dock. Veteran cruisers said it was the worst they had ever experienced...and recommended we try Royal Carib.
