Was on this ship Dec 10-18 2023. The ship itself is wonderful, great staff and Marq as cruise director phenomenal. Only thing that killed it was the terrible weather we had basically the whole cruise. But can't knock Carnival or the ship for that. Would totally do this ship again.
As much as I feel uncomfortable sailing out of NYC I may have to. I’d like sailing on this ship. Plus the view as you sail past the Statue of Liberty is worth it
We both enjoyed the tour, and we definitely did not think it was too long. Look forward to watching other tours. We’re going on this shit the end of August side of New York and we are more excited now after watching the video. Thank you.
I just booked for the June 6th cruise to Bermuda out of NYC and I can't wait! We're gonna make the best out of it no matter what! Thank you for this review and insight!
Thank you so much for the ship tour. We’re going on her in August 31. We are so excited. Thank you for all your videos. They’re very very informative.💕😊⚓️🛳️🦩😎💕👍🏼
Thank you for the tour. It's always nice to hear others opinions on the ships. I'm looking forward to the cruise on venezia but am a little skeptical about the differences. Either way I'm on a great ship headed to somewhere warm. In my opinion it doesn't get much better.
Jason, great job and comprehensive review of the new Carnival Venezia! She's a beautiful ship and I look forward to boarding her when she moves to Cape Canaveral. Keep up the great work!! Smile and laugh as much as you can!! Enjoy life! 😎⛹️♀️🚴♂️🤸♂️🍺🍰🍸🍹
Awesome tour Derek, thank you. We are sailing September 2024 to Canada. Looking forward to meeting you guys in March on the Jubilee. Thanks for all you do. I learn alot.
Fantastic tour of ship!! I’ve watched other tours and yours was the most thorough,informative and interesting. We’re booked for NYE2024 and can’t wait to sail her.
@@brokeuniguy5180 Overall, I LOVE the ship, but there's a few changes I would make: 1.) Bathrooms are small and impossible to find. More prominent signage would help. 2.) Went on the slides and got bruised on my left leg in 4 places, plus I got stuck on all 3. More water pressure would help. I asked what the safety precautions were and was told "whatever you feel comfortable with". Better training would help here. I've been on the Royal slides in the past and they tell you what the safety precautions are regardless of how many times you've been on the slides. Royal expects that it's your first time on their slides, which is why they tell you what the precautions are. 3.) There was an issue with passengers who made bad decisions in Puerto Rico, which was handled both swiftly and discreetly by Carnival. Overall, it's a step in the right direction from my last Carnival cruise 5 years ago.
Thanks for the tour Derek and Amanda. Looks different, but I am looking forward to a new experience. We are booked for Thanksgiving 2024, a 12 day cruise. Can not wait!
I will be on her this August (2024). I’ve been on Carnivals newest ships and this definitely seems different. I do have a couple questions maybe you or someone can help me on: 1. Does the top retract? And if so did you notice when? 2. I heard the sauna and whirlpool in the spa was free (dont recall if they were on other ships)?
Hello, friends. This ship starts from NYC to the Bahamas. I am planning April 2024, 10 days. There will be 2+3 days at sea. Is April a good month on the sea? Is the sea rough? Easily get seasick? Is the weather warm enough to get sunning on the deck? I asked at some Facebook groups, but no one advice. I hope I can get some information here. Thank you in advance.
Thanks for the tour! I've yet to be on a ship that someone doesn't bring a screaming toddler to the adults only area and the cruise line does NOTHING. They need to enforce adults only areas as adults only! I haven't cruised Carnival in over 10 years and I do 2-3 cruises a year, going next month on this ship and I am surprised there is no specialty dining package??? I'm confused, I'm used to the other lines being able to buy a 3 day, 5 day, 7 day specialty dining package that gives you a good discount. The specialty dining restaurant prices on this ship seem to be astronomical compared to every other ship I have been on in the last decade. Am I missing something??? Also, I saw on other videos you can buy ONE bottle of alcohol at the liqueur store and use in your room for personal consumption, is that true?
To be fair the people who end up being “turned off” somehow by the Venezia’s aesthetic should have researched the ship before sailing. The ship looks beautiful
If I make ask something like smuck I bought pixel cash 200 bucks worth I was told I can only get the package on ship can you find for me I am sailing on Venezia on Augs 31 to Sept 8 2023 I love all your videos especially this one I am watching now
I need help! My soon-to-be husband and I are going on this ship in October for our honeymoon! I emailed you a couple months ago about getting your help as cruise planners. Let me know if you can help us!
Maybe its me but i dont see the beauty in this ship. It didn't look like anyone was having any fun. Everyone looked kinda bored. I think the panorama is a much nicer looking ship. No pool in the havana area! That blows. This ship makes me wana switch to RC. Anyways thanks for taking time to make this video.
You’re welcome! It’s definitely a different offering and one that I would do again. It’s interesting the reference to people looking kind of bored. I filmed this while we were in Nova Scotia. We had just made the crossing from Europe to North America. We had six straight sea days. That may have been why people looked bored. Who knows!
Nice video! Sailing for my birthday next month (April)! Super excited 😄
How was it
This whole ship is just drop dead GORGEOUS
YASS!! I hear all kind of mixed reviews, but kudos to the ambiance!!
Looks so nice. I’m going on her sister ship the FIRENZY in August for a week trip to Cabo. I can’t wait
We booked this cruise 11 days from NYC for May 2024. First time on a new ship. WE cant wait
Watching this video made me extra eager to get on my Carnival Venezia Cruise in April!
Was on this ship Dec 10-18 2023. The ship itself is wonderful, great staff and Marq as cruise director phenomenal. Only thing that killed it was the terrible weather we had basically the whole cruise. But can't knock Carnival or the ship for that. Would totally do this ship again.
I am going on it for a second time, and having a special event on it. It's so gorgeous!
I'm on the Venezia for New Years 2024-2025! I can't wait! It's gonna be a long wait but I know it will be worth it!
I am on her for this new years! 🎉
Leave her in good shape…we sail January 5, ‘25…right after you 🎉
I’m going on this ship can’t wait
So helpful. Sailing Venezia in March 10days. Can't wait to explore
Great tour.
Just spent 19 nights on this elegant lady.
Loved every minute of it.
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS. YOU DO A GREAT JOB. VERY INFORMATIVE. I LIKE THAT YOU PUT THE DECK YOU ARE ON
I'm ready to sail on her!!
As much as I feel uncomfortable sailing out of NYC I may have to. I’d like sailing on this ship. Plus the view as you sail past the Statue of Liberty is worth it
We loved it and really had a good experience in NYC.
Thank you for this vidéo. My first cruise will be on the Venezia august 31 2024. I can't wait.
I have only relaxed in serenity one time on Vista..I will definitely pick some time when we are on Venezia May 2025..it's GORGEOUS
Gorgeous ship. I’m loving that the coffee bar is on the lido deck. Makes it easier for me to find it in the morning

Java blue on lido is prolly the best thing carnival has done

Really appreciate the review, as I am about to embark on the Venezia!
How have you found it?

Beautiful Ship!
We agree!

Hope you enjoy it!
I'm looking forward to deck 11. We have an inside cabin on 11 near the stage area and having that open space so close should be great.
Going on this one on may 16th, from Long Beach, CA to Mexico 💪
Beautiful ❤
Serenity area is beautiful
We agree!
I will be on her this August (2024). I’ve been on Carnivals newest ships and this definitely seems different.
I do have a couple questions maybe you or someone can help me on: 1. Does the top retract? And if so did you notice when? 2. I heard the sauna and whirlpool in the spa was free (dont recall if they were on other ships)?
I will be on this ship at october and it looks very very elegant
Yes it is!
Booked for January 6th to Bahamas 😊
We're thinking about going on this ship this December. Do you happen to know if Royal honors or matches Carnivals loyalty program?
Very nice 👍🏾
I am new to cruises single I would like to take a cruise next year by myself Been doing some research and there so much to learn about solo traveling

I’ll be there Jan 6th as a solo traveler 😅
Watching the tour now going in November good info hows the smoking sections? I dont need it my room mate does
Were the main dining rooms regular carnival free restaurant food or was it more Italian based options?
We will on her oct 14 th for my birthday on 13th
can I ask if you know how long the walking track is? like how many laps equal 1 Kilometer?
or mile? Thank you in advance.

The ship looks beautiful
Is the Firenze the same as this Venezia? I am boarding in July 6/2024.
Are Kids allowed to have dinner at the steakhouse?
How do I find the discount code for parking @ Galveston, TX. ?
I would like to see your review while the ship is selling so we can see the crowds......
It's a nice ship in my opinion this little too fancy for families and children this should be adult only ship
Some "families" like nice ships. We are taking our kids on the 12 day in Feb
Damn I wish I could do mine I booked direct online and used uplift service
If you want to transfer your booking to our agency. Email- travel@bookislandtime.com and we will see if that is possible.
Feb 11th for 12days 5 islands. First timer. Staying in a rm for 4. Bunk beds? Does anyone have a bedroom pic?
Po e admiroj me lot ne sy se aty brenda esht nje pjes e shpirtit tim esht djali im qe punon e qe me mungon shum❤
Are there laundry rooms for people to use or is it laundry services?
If I make ask something like smuck I bought pixel cash 200 bucks worth I was told I can only get the package on ship can you find for me I am sailing on Venezia on Augs 31 to Sept 8 2023 I love all your videos especially this one I am watching now

@IslandTimeTravel yeah probably I have to agree with you. Thats probably why everyone was looking so tired. Was the ship all booked up?
I’m hoping the Firenze will be similar to the Venezia. It’s a beautiful ship.
😊 hey brother are you going on tonight😊
Why it’s a costa boat ?
Does anyone know the # to Amanda & Derek business phone #?
Hey! It’s (501)505-6676. Give us a shout or send us a message to set up an appointment!
I stopped watching this video when you excluded the decks that one of the deck 8
Stop reading your script. Find another word for "enjoy"
Glad you enjoyed it.
