Better cruise line for Baja California Cruise, Carnival or Royal Carribean?
We have been on the Baja cruise on both the Royal Caribbean Monarch of the Seas and the Carnival Paradise.
There is a difference in itinarary between the two lines for the 4 night cruises. Royal Caribbean has a day in San Diego while Carnival has a day at Sea.
The people on the two cruises were different too. The Royal Caribbean cruisers tended to be more relaxed and exploring while the Carnival cruisers tended to be younger and party goers.
The food between the two trips was generally the same however we preferred the selection on the Royal Caribbean.
We would cruise either of the trips again, however we have heard that Royal Caribbean will be discontinuing the Baja cruises in early 2009, after that point the only Baja choice will be Carnival unless you want to do the 7 night Mexican Rivera cruises which will still be offered by several lines during different times of the year.
