Port tampa bay Reviews

Not horribly easy to navigate the traffic flow patterns. Law enforcement kept people moving, almost too much so. Port staff were very friendly and helpful. Definitely wouldn't stop here unless I was getting on another cruise ship.

We departed from Carnival Paradise Port.
Do Not Pre Pay for parking... some of them are very sketchy and not in a safe area. Do not pre pay for Valet its just not worth it. Get there early as it gets very busy. Have cash to tip the luggage guys outside. Hate the fact that people are allowed to smoke in the waiting area. Very annoying for non smokers and people with children.

Trump wants to build a wall........it would be much cheaper to send everyone through this port.........nobody will get in.......a customs officer admitted profiling to a person in our group.......apparently if you have tattoos you must do drugs ...........On the good side all of the Carnival workers were great.

We chose the Channelside Parking Garage at Port of Tampa Bay because we remembered it being across the street from the cruise terminals. But that was five years ago. The Port offices didn t move. Just the ships. We did not realize that Royal Caribbean s ships were way down on the other side of the Aquarium. Past Carnival s ships.

It was a little over a 6/10 of a mile walk through Aquarium crowds with heavy suitcases to Rhapsody of the Seas. It just felt farther & linger in the heat of midday. Once we got to the ship, which meant maneuvering through Carnival Cruise Lines cruisers & porters, it was easier than we anticipated. We made mental notes of closer, less expensive places to park in the future - if they don t move the ships again. When we came back from the cruise, we saw a sign for $50 cruise parking in our garage, and we paid $70 plus tax. So not sure what the best deal is!

At the terminal, it was quick and easy to check in. Everyone was friendly and efficient.

Norwegian Pearl & the Outlaw country Cruise is the best time of my life! Great music. Friends you will have for life! There is nothing better.... Like ever!!
Book your tickets now they sell out so fast!! Get the drink & spa packages!! Missing out if you dont!!
Cant wait to see my friends again!!!
The music is unexplainable! The artist so real! Go go go yourselves!

You looking to catch a Carnival Cruise or any Cruise the Port of Tampa is a simple easy well-run embarkation and debarkation port. Brian and his crew doing a great job maintaining order and getting everybody ready to board the ship there's a large seating area and restrooms with complimentary water while you're waiting to board. Just make sure you show up at your proper time so you get on board when it's your turn to go

very dirty not a happy experience will never return
