what was the best excursion you ever took through Carnival?

[ontheweb]

Ours was the Bob Marley bus in Ochos Rios, Jamaica. Great music of course, and you see a part of Jamaica not normally seen by tourists.

Cool Runnings catamaran to Dunn's River Falls...Ocho Rios, Jamaica. We've booked it 3 times!!

I loved the Luxury Day Sail in Cabo and the Ultimate Canopy in Puerto Vallarta. Can't narrow it down any further. 2 different types of excursions. 1 is relaxing and 1 is a rush.

The Scenic Foodie tour when we visited Progreso.

Loved swimming with the sting rays in Grand Cayman!

I don't know if they still offer it but the dolphin encounter on Roatan at Anthony's Key was great. It's part of the Roatan Institute for Marine Science and was educational and really, really fun being with the dolphins.

The private tour we did in Progeso was amazing. Mayapan ruins, cenote swimming and lunch with a local family. It was amazing.

Tortola - snorkel trip at Norman Island. Holy Cow, like swimming through the Discovery Channel. Absolutely inspiring.

Hands down the private Cabana at Mahogany Bay. We are doing it again this week. Expensive but worth every cent.

Sorry but we never do Carnival excursions. We always do private. Usually 30-40% less expensive and higher quality content

Loved that tour as well! And while we often book independent tours, I was glad we booked this one through Carnival. On the way back from Norman Island a line fouled one of the catamaran's propellers and we made it to port right at "back aboard" time. My guide is (a) is the tour something only available through the cruise line? and (b) how much time do we have in port? In the case of Tortola, we were in port 7-2. I wasn't going to chance that one with a non-Carnival tour.

The Tracy Arm excursion in Alaska. Hands down worth every penny. Truly amazing.

Cave tubing in Belize

Screamin' Eagle Jet Boat in St Thomas. It is like the Circle Line Beast/Shark jet boat ride here in NYC but like 10 times better. The jet boat in st thomas is soo much faster and can do crazy maneuvers that circle line does not do

Our best Carnival excursion was to Chichen Itza when we cruised on the Ecstasy. Amazing!

River and Ruins (or something like that) in Belize - went down the river and had a great guide that pointed out the animals and different plants, trees, etc. stopped for lunch then went to Xunantunich which was amazing. This might actually be the ONLY Carnival excursion we've done but it was definitely one of the best we've been on.

And this relates to the OP's question how? :confused:

[SMSACE6]

for me it is a toss up. one was the stingray city tour I did with some friends while on the Valor in 2007, it included a trip to hell and the turtle farm, but the swimming with the stingrays was a one of a lifetime for me, who is a water wimp:D loved it though, and so glad i did it then, as it is not somthing that I am likely to repeat now.

 

the other one was an all inclusive beach break in Cozumel, to Playa Mia. did that on my Liberty cruise with my Mom in 2009, and for 69.00 dollars, included transportation, beach chairs, umbrella, drinks (very good ones), and decent food. it was also the last time that my Mom and I were able to cruise together, since, as of that time my Dad is not to be left on his own anymore.

Also, on that tour, I was nursing a fractured rib, and I floated on my back in the water there for hours, and it was like a great massage. Pain was gone that evening...or it could have been the great drinks:D however the rib pain did seem to lessen after that day.:)

I liked Monkeys, Pirates and Birds of the Caribbean in Honduras. Hopefully going to do it again in October.
