Join the adventure — everyone is welcome

Pack your bags, gather your friends, and get ready for an unforgettable week at sea. Whether you're part of our family, a friend of a friend, or simply someone looking for a joyful vacation, you're invited to sail with us.

This sailing is about making memories, building friendships, and enjoying life's adventures together. You don't have to know a single person in the group to join in — you'll feel like family from the moment you step on board.

Everyone is welcome

Families, couples, friends of friends, and solo travelers. We already have several solo cruisers sailing with us, so you'll be in good company.

One unpacking, three islands

Half Moon Cay, Nassau, and Celebration Key — plus three glorious fun days at sea to do absolutely nothing if that's what you need.

All-inclusive group pricing

Your cabin, taxes, port fees, Carnival travel insurance, and gratuities are all built into one per-person price. No hidden surprises.

I handle the details

From cabin selection to pre-cruise hotels and parking, I take care of the logistics so you can simply look forward to the trip.

Day by day

Your itinerary

Three islands, three fun days at sea, and one very easy unpacking.

  1. Baltimore Inner Harbor skyline and waterfront, departure port for the Bahamas cruise
    Day 1Depart 4:30 PM

    Sun, April 25, 2027

    Baltimore, MD — Port of Baltimore

    An easy drive from Central Pennsylvania — no airport, no connections. We board in the afternoon, find our cabins, and wave at the skyline as Baltimore slips away behind us.

    Depart 4:30 PM

  2. A couple relaxing on a Carnival balcony cabin with ocean views and a bottle of champagne on ice
    Day 2At sea all day

    Mon, April 26, 2027

    Fun day at sea

    The first slow morning of the trip. Coffee on deck, a long breakfast, and the rest of the day exactly as full or as empty as you'd like it to be.

    Day 3At sea all day

    Tue, April 27, 2027

    Fun day at sea

    By day three you know people's names. This is the day our group starts feeling like a group — trivia, deck chairs, and dinner together.

  4. White sand beach, loungers and turquoise water at Half Moon Cay, Bahamas
    Day 4Arrive 8:00 AM · Depart 4:00 PM

    Wed, April 28, 2027

    Relaxaway, Half Moon Cay

    The crescent of white sand people talk about for years. Float in water so clear it barely looks real, then let someone else make lunch.

    Arrive 8:00 AM · Depart 4:00 PM

    Watch a preview of Relaxaway

  5. Aerial view of cruise ships docked in Nassau Harbour, Bahamas
    Day 5Arrive 8:00 AM · Depart 5:00 PM

    Thu, April 29, 2027

    Nassau, Bahamas

    Pastel streets, straw-market bargaining, conch fritters, and rum cake. Wander with the group or slip away on your own — both are the right answer.

    Arrive 8:00 AM · Depart 5:00 PM

    Watch a preview of Nassau

  6. A couple holding hands in the turquoise water at Celebration Key with the sandcastle tower and palm trees behind them
    Day 6Arrive 7:00 AM · Depart 1:00 PM

    Fri, April 30, 2027

    Celebration Key

    Carnival's Grand Bahama beach destination: lagoons, cabanas, and a shoreline built for one last barefoot morning.

    Arrive 7:00 AM · Depart 1:00 PM

    Watch a preview of Celebration Key

  7. Comedian on stage at the Punchliner Comedy Club with a laughing audience
    Day 7At sea all day

    Sat, May 1, 2027

    Fun day at sea

    The soft landing. Sun, a book, a spa afternoon, and one more dinner with the friends you didn't have a week ago.

    A full day at sea

    WaterWorks racing slides — the kids will run back up for one more turn.

    Sun, May 2, 2027

    Baltimore, MD — Port of Baltimore

    Home by mid-morning, tanned and a little reluctant — usually already talking about where we go next.

This adventure is sold out

The Bahamas Carnival Cruise 2027 is officially full!

I'm so excited to be sailing with this amazing group in April 2027. At this time, no additional cabins are available through the Travel Meets Adventure group.

Wish you were coming with us?

This may be sold out, but it definitely won't be our last adventure. I have more escorted and group travel experiences coming, and I'd love to help you find the one that feels right for you.

Good to know

Bahamas Carnival Cruise 2027 — questions travelers ask

Do I need to know someone in the group to join?
Not at all. Many guests join on their own or with one friend. This group is warm and easygoing, and there are group gatherings on board so you meet people naturally.
Can I cruise solo?
Yes, and several solo travelers are already sailing with us. Solo guests pay the double-occupancy deposit of $500 to hold the cabin; reach out and I'll walk you through the solo pricing.
What exactly is included in the price?
Your cabin, taxes, port fees, Carnival travel insurance, and gratuities. Meals and most onboard entertainment are included by Carnival as standard.
How much is the deposit and when is final payment due?
$250 per person, payable as two $125 installments. Deposits are non-refundable. Final payment for all cabins is due January 5, 2027.
Can you help with hotels, parking, and excursions?
Yes. I can arrange pre- or post-cruise hotels, port parking, drink packages, Wi-Fi, and shore excursions, or you can book those yourself through Carnival at your leisure.
Where does the ship depart from?
Carnival Pride sails round-trip from the Port of Baltimore, Maryland — an easy drive from Central Pennsylvania, including Harrisburg, Hershey, York, and Lancaster.
Will pricing change before 2027?
It can. Carnival and other suppliers adjust rates over time. I watch the pricing closely and let you know about any changes as we get closer to sailing.

Don't miss the boat

Imagine waking up to blue water, sipping coffee on your balcony, wandering a tropical island in the afternoon, and laughing through world-class Carnival entertainment at night — surrounded by friends, family, and new travel buddies.

Cabins fill quickly and group pricing is held for a limited time. Reserve your cabin and join the journey.
