Carnival Cruise Lines - Fascination —

My first experience with cruising was on my Honeymoon and, let me tell you, I was treated like a princess. The ship was neat and clean, the crew members were fantastic! They really went out of their way to make passengers feel valued and comfortable. We took part in fun onboard activities like "Survivor at Sea" and a Honeymooners trivia game. The slots were great too (we won $1,200!) and there were many excursion choices at the ports of call (Montego Bay, Grand Cayman and Cozumel). We swan w/ stingrays in Cayman, pet a live aligator in the Black River in Jamaica and lazed in hammocks on a nearly deserted Isle of Passion off Cozumel. The only real drawback was the crowd! It seemed like nearly EVERYONE opted for the Dunns River Falls tour - there were SIX tenders full of passengers!!!!!!!! At that rate, I've got a feeling that not everone had a chance to scale the falls! :-( I'm sure that's common with a lot of cruises, but I'm just glad we opted for the Black River Safari tour :-) All in all, it was a great value fior the $$$, probably even more so now since it is one of the older ships. I would definately sail w/ Carnival again!
