Families travel from far to experience a Panama Canal Fun Ship cruise. Amazing!
You may already know that Carnival Cruise Line gets you to some of the best places in the world on their Fun Ships.
Now you know that they can also get you to the Panama Canal in style.
The Panama Canal is a great pull for cruise travelers. It is quite understandable, because some dub the Canal as one of the seven wonders of the modern world.
Most people take a Panama Canal cruise to experience the thrill of being ushered from the Atlantic Ocean via the Caribbean Sea to the Pacific Ocean by man-made devices.
It is a thrill to live through giant locks and machines plus gravity carrying a large ship for 20 - 30 hours from ocean to ocean.
Carnival does not offer year-round Panama Canal cruises. You can normally catch a sailing during the re-positioning of a Fun Ship from the Caribbean to the West Coast.
Ports of Call - Regarding ports of call, you can expect a Carnival ship to sail from Florida, probably make a stop in the Western Caribbean, a stop at the Panama Canal, Costa Rica, Mexico and then terminating in California.
