Why are Fareviewer price and BookingEngine price different?

I tried to search for an answer to this question but was bombarded with hundreds of thread matches. I am hoping someone can easily explain this to me.

 

I am about to book my cruise and wanted to see what Fareviewer was all about. The cost on Fareviewer came in exactly $361 cheaper in each of the categories. Is this difference taxes and port charges?

Fareview is cabin price only for the number of people you selected.

 

When you do a mock booking you have to look for the Cabin price above the taxes and the prices listed usually includes the taxes - so I think so - did you look at the mock booking to see?

Ah yes, I have confrimed it is the Gov't Fees/Taxes. Thanks.
