Galveston is served by Carnival (2 ships), Royal Caribbean and Princess.

We have taken the Royal Caribbean and both Carnival ships out of Galveston.

The most economical is the Carnival Ecstasy since it is a 5-day cruise.  Ship is smaller and older but OK.  Visits Cozumel and Progresso.  Progresso is fun because it is not as commerical as the other ports and you can get some neat deals in the markets.

The Royal Caribbean - Rhaposody of the Sea is old and the plumbing does not work well.  Not worth the extra money.

Carnival Conquest is a larger ship and our favorite from the Galveston market.  Visits Jamaica, Grand Caymans and Cozumel.  

Notables...parking at the port is $10 per day so $50 for 5-day cruise, $70 for 7-day cruise.

If you book directly with Carnival, they will price match any lower price you find on-line within 24 hours of booking.
