Customers say:

The Mardi Gras by Carnival Cruise Line is praised for its variety of dining options and entertainment, boasting the first roller coaster at sea. Its innovative design and spacious cabins receive high marks. However, some reviewers mention it can feel crowded at peak times, and service can be inconsistent. Ideal for families and thrill-seekers looking for fun and diverse activities onboard.
