Belize City, Belize We took the excursion up the Wallace River then visited the Ruins. We loved the boat ride. We saw Monkeys, bats, manatees and crocodiles.
Cozumel, Mexico We rented a car and toured the island. Very pretty beaches.
George Town, Grand Cayman We took a cab to 7 mile beach cost 5 dollars per person each way. The beach was nice. We heard later that there was another beach better for snorkeling right off the dock within walking distance from the ship.
Roatan (Isla Roatan), Bay Islands, Honduras This was our favorite port. We went to the beach Tabyana on the west side. It was beautiful. We enjoyed the music and snorkeling.

Belize City, Belize Extremely dissapointing. We did the Belize Zoo tour which was nice, but the tour through the town was viewing nothing but poverty. Not impressed.
Cozumel, Mexico Recommend you do the Fly High Zip Line. They were great with us and so much fun to spend the afternoon with. Also be sure to visit the beaches, they're amazing.
George Town, Grand Cayman Must go to Margaritaville. Entertainment there was so much fun.
Roatan (Isla Roatan), Bay Islands, Honduras This was the best of them all. Beautiful people and island. We did the Catamaran sailing and snorkeling and had the best time. The island is amazing.

A wonderful cruise by
Gloria F. from St. Augustine, FL
Sailing date: Oct 2008 Pros:
The location of the cabin was quiet and conveninet to restaurants.
Cons:
Debarkation was not propertly implemeted.
We have been on Carnival before and knew what to expect. This is a wonderful cruise line. Everyone is wonderful to you. The food is exceptional. You are not wanting for anything at anytime. Being an older couple we did not partake in a lot of the activities and there are many. But there were many things set up for "us" in the afternoons that were so much fun. We absolutely fell over laughing at the newly-wed, older-wed game. The Cruise Director was fabulous negotiating the right answers to give the best laugh. All the shows were very commendable, comedians and music. There gazillions of shore excursions for the "young folk". We just toured the towns and were very happy with that. The room was just wonderful. The bed was a dream. We loved the balcony so much. We are plannning another trip this coming spring. We can't wait.

Belize City, Belize We took a tour of the city and what an eye opener. We had never been in a third world country before. How sad.
Don't Miss: The Anglican Church buiilt by slaves from bricks used as ballast in the mahagony trade ships.
Cozumel, Mexico Don't miss the Best of Mexico museum. This visit was worth going on the whole cruise.
Don't Miss: see comment
George Town, Grand Cayman Did not like the shore excursion. It was a waste of time outside of the turtle farm.
Don't Miss: nothing
Roatan (Isla Roatan), Bay Islands, Honduras Another very poor country. Nothing very much to see except the poverty.

Wonderful Experience by
A Traveler from Altamonte Springs, FL
Sailing date: Jun 2008 Pros:
Crystal Clear Waters
Cons:
Seeing all the poverty in Belize
The Carnival Legend lived up to its name as a Fun Ship. There were plenty of activities to keep everyone busy and entertained on sea days. Of special note was the "entertainment" provided each night in the dining room. Each evening waiters and servers would entertain us with song and dance and of course, we were invited to participate. We never knew what type of props would be worn by the maitre'd. It made for a fun evening of dining. The food on the Lido desk had plenty of choices from hot to cold from American to cultural dishes. There was something for everyone! The various bars and lounges on ship offered music to fit everyone's taste. The service on board was always friendly and outgoing. It was a very positive experience.

Belize City, Belize Be prepared for the poverty of this island and police checkpoints with rifles.
Don't Miss: Xunatich ruins. The view from the top is beautiful
Cozumel, Mexico If you like shopping there is plenty to choose from in this port. You have to put up with everyone trying to entice you into their particular shop.
Don't Miss: Snorkeling
George Town, Grand Cayman Don't Miss: Stingray Sandbar
Roatan (Isla Roatan), Bay Islands, Honduras Don't Miss: Tabyana beach offers the best snorkeling of all the ports

Great Cruise by
a traveler from boston, ma
Sailing date: Jun 2008 Pros:
atmosphere, food, entertainment, Billy's Piano Bar!!
Cons:
Photos, photos, photos!!!
Very different from other ships. Not all the lights and colors. A little too much dark wood but still "beautiful". Staff in every area are by far the friendliest of all cruises we have taken.

A Great time had by all by
David Y from Strongsville Ohio
Sailing date: Jun 2008 Pros:
The excursions we did and the dining experience
Cons:
The cost of tokens in game room
Ship was very good everywhere. loved the availability of beverages all day. The hows were great although the times were pressing at vtimes with other events ie dinner, other planned events etc. Sometimes bothersome with all the picture taking, although pictures looked great.Some of the excursions were a bit pricey for what you got. The staff was great. Probably the best i ever had. Thank you look forward to sailing with Carnival again.
