Mizzouaholic Posted May 7, 2015 #1 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Last June on the Liberty we attended an event called "The Quest" It was hilarious and probably one of the best things we have ever been to on a ship. Everyone at a table was a team and the cruise director called for all kinds of things for people to bring up to the stage and changing clothes with your teammate, etc. I am wondering if anyone has seen this on other ships? Do they do it on certain ships or maybe on every cruise? I've cruised Carnival 13 times, but that was the only time i've seen that game. I would love for it to be on other ships!

love my grandkids Posted May 7, 2015 #2 Share Posted May 7, 2015 We have seen it a number of times but usually on longer cruises. Can be a lot of fun if handled well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falkcor Posted May 7, 2015 #3 Share Posted May 7, 2015 it depends on not only the ship, but the cruise director. as i understand it, the cruise directors are the ones to implement it. that said, i think when an established cruise director establishes it, and then say goes on vacation, the stand in will likely still hold the event... or if it's established on a ship, perhaps the new CD would keep it.... i saw it first on carnival on pride back in 2009 (kirk benning CD), and then also on splendor in 2014 (eli sharplin, stand in CD for malcolm i believe)... it's a great activity, not sure why it hasn't quite 'caught on' across the fleet yet, but it's been around for at least 6 years since i saw it on my pride cruise.

Izzybee Posted May 7, 2015 #4 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Was on the Pride last year. One of the funniest things ever, although our team sucked and was a bunch of sticks in the mud. Rules were everyone who was there had to participate but these guys were bare minimum. Would have preferred to be in a group who were really participating...

Mizzouaholic Posted May 8, 2015 Author #5 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Has anyone seen it done on either the Triumph or the Sunshine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falkcor Posted May 8, 2015 #6 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Has anyone seen it done on either the Triumph or the Sunshine? it wasn't on triumph when jen baxter was the CD... however kirk benning is cruise director for most of the rest of the year... he had quest on pride when i sailed with him so maybe he does on triumph - not sure though.

annabell08 Posted May 8, 2015 #7 Share Posted May 8, 2015 I was on Triumph in early April and there no Quest. My sister sailed on Elation last October, they had a game similar to Quest called "What's in the Bag?" Royal Caribbean had "Quest" on all the cruises I have sailed with them.

love my grandkids Posted May 8, 2015 #8 Share Posted May 8, 2015 It is best when they do it about midnight and the cruise is mostly younger folks who will want to do all the quests.:):) We typically only see it on cruises of 8 days or more.

mzlinda Posted May 8, 2015 #9 Share Posted May 8, 2015 It was on my 5 night Fantasy cruise 10/2014 but I didn't see it on my 7 night Liberty cruise just last week 4/25. It's possibly that I missed it in the Fun Times but I don't think they had it. It is so much fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyMaster Posted May 8, 2015 #10 Share Posted May 8, 2015 I too, am just off "Valor" 8 day, where they presented "Quest". Very entertaining, indeed! :eek: "SKY" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare nydney1 Posted May 8, 2015 #11 Share Posted May 8, 2015 I thought the first rule of The Quest was to not talk about The Quest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcherry Posted May 9, 2015 #12 Share Posted May 9, 2015 They had it on Victory this past January. Also on RC's Oasis of the Seas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
love my grandkids Posted May 9, 2015 #13 Share Posted May 9, 2015 I thought the first rule of The Quest was to not talk about The Quest? Appears to work that way only on some ships by particular CD's. Pride recently the CD didnt say anything about that but on Liberty that what was said.

theriac Posted May 26, 2015 #18 Share Posted May 26, 2015 It's fun to watch, but when there's a team that sits front row, knows every question, and is already prepared with what's needed, it takes some of the fun out of competing in it. I was on the Pride in December out of Tampa and it was done. The CD didn't host it though. It was the assistant cruise director and entertainment director, who are actually both on the Paradise now, but they didn't do it on that ship a few weeks ago.
