Cruise Help...Carnival vs Royal Carribean

Carnival is great the times I've gine its been a lot of fun. The food is spectacular a lot of options, there are quite a few kids but this happens in every cruise. As far as Royal can't really comment I have never been but have heard mixed reviews. I have been on NCL twice its great freestyle you can do whatever you want no rules and the food is great as well.

Thanks everyone your comments are really helpful

I think it depends on what you want. I've been on both multiple times and enjoy both! Carnival is definitely more relaxed and the food is not as good but it's all about the party. Royal Caribbean is amazing especially the oasis of the sea beautiful ship but it's more fancy the food is amazing but alot more expensive and there's alot of"extras" on the ships to pay for.
