Carnival Cruise to Australian Open 2026   1 , QLD, Australia, Jan 2026
A most enjoyable trip sailing from Sydney to Melbourne for the Australian Open Tennis Tournament. Great weather. Great service by ship's crew. Great entertainment on board especially Verve Duo. Louis has the most fantastic singing voice.
Unfortunately, I heard this cruise isn't going to run again. so sad. Great value cruise. Global Journey provided read more excellent service to me & my travelling group.
80's cruise from Sydney 1 80s Cruise , New Zealand, Jul 2025
We made the 80's cruises in Carnival Adventure. Overall was really enjoyable, atmosphere on the cruise and especially the main shows were really good. Cabinets and overall state of the ship are very good too. Embarkation and disimbarkation process really organized and fast. Things not so good: There is not a lot of variety on food on The Pantry, and read more the daily entertainment was kind of short on options, with more of the activities focused only on Australian passengers. Is a good option anyways for a short break.
Never again 0 , New Zealand, May 2025
This was our first cruise as a family with a daughter who was 20 months at the time of travel. We were told cruises were family friendly but it couldn’t have been further from the truth. We spent 9 days walking up and down a boat as there was no play area not even a safe contained area for little ones. The kids club was shocking. No toys for her age read more and I looked through the older kids room and they were either watching tv or screaming crying. Not allowed in any of the pools as she was still in nappies (only found out the rule after we booked which wasn’t helpful!). The food was okay but nothing special. Very dated and tired and just felt as though we had stepped back in time. The itinerary advertised on day at Willis island which wasn’t even a stop we just sailed past it at 9pm at night in the dark. The only good thing about this whole trip was how lovely the staff were but honestly a holiday from hell.
