Carnival Pride to Bermuda

[garyfam]

We have the opportunity to book a last minute Bermuda cruise on Carnival. We have never cruised this line before (Celebrity 3 times, RCCL, NCL). Can anyone provide feedback on whether we should expect to encounter the stereotyped Carnival crowd or it this is a thing of the past. I would not enjoy drunks in the hot tubs (mentioned by a reviewer) etc. Also, I don't believe we have ever been to the Bermuda port Carnival uses, though we have been at the Hamilton and St. George piers several times on other ships. What is it like and how far is it from the South Shore beaches? Any other info would be appreciated, particularly about food and service. Thanx to all who respond.

Go for it!! We have sailed Carnival 4 times and Celebrity twice. I would not hesitate to book Carnival, in fact have one scheduled for Nov. I have never encountered drunks in the hot tubs, but there are idiots everywhere, so anything is possible.

We have always found the food and service to be very good, never had a complaint about either. Sorry, don't know about the other port, but Bermuda is compact and has a good bus system.

I think you will have a great time; let us know!

Still looking for feedback on this question. Hope some others will contribute.
