Carnival Sunshine ship to go to Nova Scotia for 8 days cruised out of Norfolk which is the biggest reason why I liked it - convenience of location. The activities especially the evening shows (variety, comedy, etc) were great. The housekeeping, restaurant and entertainment staff were wonderful; polite, accommodating, very friendly. They seem dedicated and hard-working. If based on the convenience of port, show variety and staff friendliness, the rating is 5 stars. However I am giving an over-all 2 stars because: (1) boarding process was super slow, they could have more lines formed and the checking of boarding passes was too slow (2) the food in all specialty restaurants are more like a 2 AT BEST except for the Bonsai (Japanese cuisine) restaurant is a 4 star for the food taste. Even their cafe serves desserts that LOOK delectable but were much left to be desired (cupcake was pretty but super dry and bland). (3) The casino was okay didn't seem expansive enough. (4) I didn't try their spa because even with their specials it was too expensive for the nature of their services. Talked to a couple of acquaintances they said the gym was mediocre, only thing worth mentioning is the sauna (5) though over-all cleanliness was a 4, the ship cabins and hallways are so dated. You can see bathroom door frames rusting and hallways are so gloomy. Ultimately the experience was a letdown. Wish we get compensated for the final 24 hours of the trip. Though the decisions to cut the cruise short were not the captain's fault (didn't go to port of Sydney due to flooding and full speed home to Norfolk due to medical emergency), we pretty much docked at Norfolk the last 12 hours without much activity. It felt like we were quarantined before we left the ship, just left to re-purposed buffet food (beef roast for lunch then sliced left over versions for dinner). They even ran out of 8-day supply of mushrooms to put on their pizzas. Heard from repeat cruise passengers that the newer ships are definitely better.

We have both traveled all over the planet and this was our first trip using a travel company. Lets just say, Adios Adventure Travel has been absolutely amazing. When we decided to plan this trip, we did a Google search for Manchu Picchu. We came across Adios Adventure Travel. I sent an email with the information about what we were looking for, and BOOM Jacquie responded right away with tons of information. She was amazing through the decision process. She answered every question we had, was super punctual in responding, and helped us to get to the point of booking with such ease! When we called to actually book, Jacquie was so much fun to talk with. We talked on the phone for almost 2 hours discussing this trip. She recommended places to go, things we were interested in, made sure to let the travel guides know the details for those things we were interested in, and so much more. If I can travel anywhere, it has to be a place where I have a "Jacquie" available for questions, answers, and great information. Once we got to Cusco, we met with our guide Victor. He took care of us the entire trip... and when I mean taken care of us, he made sure we knew where we were going, what times to be where, and stepped us through everything everyday. Each place we visited Victor was so knowledgeable about the site, city, people, and the history. He was so extremely polite, giving, and funny! He told us many of his personal stories, especially the ones that were connected to the places we visited. Victor was also patient about our time, especially at different locations, allowing us to see the different sites but to also give us time to look and experience for ourselves. We told Victor in the beginning of our trip, things we were interested in seeing and experiencing... he adjusted our schedule to fit those things in and even took us to amazing restaurants for some very authentic Peruvian food. We were both blown away at the professionalism that everyone at Adios Adventure Travel had. I recommend anyone who is wanting to travel to Peru, Chile, Ecuador, or Bolivia, to contact Adios Adventure Travel and see what they have to offer... they will make your trip amazing and so much easier!

If you are ever considering going to Peru & hiking Machu Picchu, definitely go through Adios Travel Adventure. Both co-owners Jacquie & Vidal were wonderful to work with (and Heather as well)! We did a 5 day hike and at times is was very challenging but completely worth it. There was an issue with our initial itinerary that we picked, but Jacquie & Vidal did everything they could and made it right. It all worked out for the best, and we can't say enough good things about working with them. I contacted Jacquie many months before our trip and from start to finish, it was a breeze to work with her. She always responded in a timely manner to all of my questions (and I had a TON of questions)! Lol. It made planning the trip fun & stress free! I don't regret one bit going through Adios Travel Adventure! We recommend them 100%. And if you ever get to choose your guide - ask them to book Klever for you...absolutely wonderful!!

And even if this wasn't my first time I expected to be educated and made to feel like things were taken care of. There was a miscommunication regarding flights. When I presented questions and concerns the representative named Jenn was extremely rude and seemed to take my concerns as a personal attack. When I explained that there must have been a miscommunication and requested she educate me on the process she told me that there was no miscommunication and that I was the one at fault. After multiple back and forth communications and the rude nature of her responses, I did not feel confident in trusting my travel goals to Jenn based on her emotional responses. I asked to work with another member of her team, however my request was not honored. Her professionalism was deficient and it seemed she did not care. I am not sure what was wrong with Jenn but this whole experience was baffling and I am still confused. The level of customer service I received was non existent. I would not place my trust in this agency.
