Carnival Extends Port Time in Cozumel
Carnival Cruise Line has extended the length of time its ships spend in Cozumel, Mexico, on more than 750 voyages, providing guests with even more opportunities to experience and explore one of the Caribbean’s most diverse vacation destinations.
On “Cozumel Plus” itineraries, guests now have access to a variety of new excursions, many taking place on Mexico’s mainland – tours like swimming with whale sharks, visiting centuries-old ruins and swimming in hidden caverns, to name a few, complementing nearly 50 existing tours already available.
Carnival is kicking off its new Cozumel Plus itineraries with a special promotion offering a US$25 per person shipboard credit that can be used toward shore excursions. The offer is available through April 22 when booking in combination with Carnival’s Early Saver rates.
Designated by a special notation on Carnival’s web site, Cozumel Plus itineraries are operated by 17 different Carnival ships offering more than 750 four- to eight-day cruises from six US homeports along the East Coast and Gulf of Mexico.
Cozumel Plus tours are up to eight hours in duration and include everything from extended, day-long tours visiting ancient Mayan ruins, including Chichen Itza – one of the Seven Wonders of the World dating back to 750 A.D. – to snorkeling the exquisite turquoise waters of Xel-Ha, a magnificent group of lagoons connected by a series of bridges.
Cruises visiting Cozumel dock at Puerta Maya, Carnival’s modern three-berth facility, offering easy access to the various tours via an on-site transportation centre and including a variety of retail shops, boutiques and restaurants.
