| Carnival Launches Teen-Only Tours |
Targeting its 12 - 15 year old passengers, Carnival has begun unveiling
teen-only shore excursions in a move that extends the kids' cruise
experience beyond the boundaries of the ship itself. The tours, currently
available on all ships except Holiday, Destiny and Inspiration (which will
get them shortly), focus on active excursions in itineraries ranging from
Alaska to the Caribbean. Typical activities offered include horseback riding
in Cozumel, America's Cup regatta racing in St. Maarten, a ride on an
Atlantis submarine in St. Thomas and a cycling tour of Key West. Prices of
the teen shore trips are 20 percent below that of regular adult excursions.
All of the teen outings are overseen by an on-site camp counselor.
The program is set up a bit differently from traditional shore excursion
booking procedures. There is no pre-cruise selection; teen passengers get
together onboard at Camp Carnival and vote amongst three possibilities for
each port of call; the tour in each that garners the highest number -- wins.
The excursions, according to a spokesman, are available in every port on a
ship's itinerary. | |
