5 Night Bahamas Cruise aboard the Carnival Mardi Gras

Share

Settle in for five nights of luxurious travel through the Caribbean when you join the Carnival Mardi Gras from Port Canaveral and back.

Spending time at less common cities like Celebration Key, Half Moon Cay, and Nassau makes this trip particularly exciting. This is a frequent route for the Mardi Gras.

We include all meals, entertainment, taxes, and fees in this, so there are no surprises. With a cost of less than $85 per day, this is an excellent bargain.
