bar1068 Posted October 11, 2023 #1 Share Posted October 11, 2023 Seems the CC search function is having issues, so posting this question here. Sailing a B2B on Mardi Gras this weekend. Meeting friends on second leg and we've all decided to do the Behind the Fun tour if we can get it booked. Carnival website shows a cost range of $90-$150. I'm thinking the Mardi Gras cost will be $150, just wanted to ask here if thats what the cost is from anyone thats done the tour. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Haljo1935 Posted October 11, 2023 #2 Share Posted October 11, 2023 2 weeks ago on Venezia it was $130, 3.5 hours. Cannot say for the MG. It was very interesting - enjoy! Be sure to sign up early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pellaz Posted October 12, 2023 #4 Share Posted October 12, 2023 And don't bring a cellphone or camera with you; they are verboten and Security will check. A Security officer will accompany the tour, since some of the areas (Bridge, Engineering Control) are restricted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Tom-n-Cheryl Posted October 13, 2023 #5 Share Posted October 13, 2023 So - we've taken this tour on Fantasy, Spirit, and Conquest class ships. I'm thinking that there's not much more to see on an Excel class ship (I mean, do they cut the vegetables in a different direction or something .. lol)?

rockwall_cruiser Posted October 13, 2023 #6 Share Posted October 13, 2023 It was $90 on the Legend in August. Wear closed toe shoes. They will take and hold your cell phone and return at the end. We got a picture with the Captain on the bridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the Excel class is so completely similar to those other ships that I'm sure everything is pretty much exactly the same..... ...NOT. It all depends on how much you actually care about the behind-the-scenes stuff, of course, but the class is so much bigger and more complex than those others, there's bound to be all sorts of new stuff. For one thing, Excel ships are LNG-powered, which is vastly different from any other class of ship Carnival has -- or, for that matter, most other lines.
