There is a $50 credit available with booking through the group but you can always use your specials and she will still connect you to the group. ONCE YOU BOOK YOUR TRIP YOU CANNOT MOVE TO THE GROUP. SO PLEASE CALL BARBIE FROM THE START TO FIND THE BEST DEAL. SHE HAS ACCESS TO ALL YOUR PAST TRIPS AND SPECIALS.
WE DID ANYTIME DINING.

Is this going to be on the Hallet? Just curious of how many peeps you can fit on there with the whole buffet, shows, etc.?

The Ensenada cruises are the best! We would be down for this.

Those are really fun with a big group of people. It's not what you'd call a first class cruise, it's more like, typical river behavior! 😁
The date Stacy posted may be just before the Spring Break mayhem.....Compare it to the Havasu snowbird/boater transition period😁😂

Ensenada is fun. To get to the main drag is an easy walk from the harbor. Only a few short blocks. All the cruise drunks come strolling in to Papas and Beer. It gets loud and rowdy for a couple hours, then they leave and it gets back to a dull roar. Never felt unsafe there.

They shuttle you in buses from the harbor to downtown.

I don’t do Papa’s. That’s for the college kids. I’m a Hussong’s fan (oldest bar in Baja) amongst a few others.

Took this pic a few weeks ago…

The shuttle ride just drops you at the square with all the kiddos selling chicklets a block away from the main shopping & bar street(calle primera)....
We don't mind walking the couple blocks from the docks to get to that.

We’d be interested. Bob and Stefanie Heck and yes, we’ve cruised on carnival. Unfortunately, we happen to be platinum level.

I don’t mind the walk either but sometimes the vodka orange juice that I smuggle onto the ship in shampoo bottles hits a bit different and I find myself stumbling to the busses instead 😂

We are going on this cruise in a few weeks, As Nord told me in the past “ Carnival is considered the Greyhound of the sea”. We have done a few of these and always a blast.
