Cruising carefree on Carnival with kids!

Carnival Triumph - Eastern Caribbean

Our cruise was a last minute celebration for my in-laws 50th Anniversary. With this whirlwind vacation upon us, we relied heavily on Carnival to help us plan a magnificent treat for the family. With 19 people cruising from ages 2 years through 80 years old, we had our concerns, but with no need.

Upon arrival the Carnival staff couldn't have been more helpful, we were directed to an area that would be easy for us all to meet with sufficient 'space' for all to fit. Our cruise director was cheerful and fun, the staff was unbelieveably happy & helpful, the food was better than I personally expected and the service superb!

The children's 'Club Carnival' was amazing, my children loved it immediately. The buffet on deck had something for everyone, and the all day ice cream & pizza spots were a hit with every age group.

I tried out for the Carnival Legends show, something I would never have thought of doing, but it was the highlight of my cruise - talk about letting go of your inhibitions!

The staff put together a beautiful renewal of vows ceremony at sea and took extra steps all week to make the trip special for us all.

Definitely a great vacation for a group, we'll definitely be cruising with Carnival again soon!
