Carnival Magic vs Horizon vs Adventure OTS for Aruba

[jedi bobs]

Looking to go to Aruba. I have never been on Royal, and I have only cruised on Carnival. Here is what I have

Carnival Magic $709 inside Half Moon, Grand Turk, Curoco, and Aruba

Carnival Horizon: $749 inside Grand Turk, La Romania, Curroco, and Aruba

Adventure of the Sea: $649 inside Aruba, Boniare, Curoco,

 

Aruba, Boniare, Curoco, and La Romania are all new ports Thanks for your imputs

If you enjoy snorkeling at all, don't miss Bonaire.

Ditto.....Don't miss Bonaire. LOVE this port. You can also check out Celebrity's Equinox for the ABC Islands. Fantastic!

I choose RC in a heartbeat for all the bells and whistles and so many places to choose to eat at. They all offer great ports but I definitely choose RC over Carnival and lets face it, the price is cheaper too!

I don't cruise Carnival any more so I'd pick Royal.

 

However, isn't Horizon a brand new ship? That might tip the balance for some.

I'd pick a ship that go to all three ABC islands, including Bonaire. Bonaire is a highly desirable port because it has some of the best snorkeling in the Caribbean and because not as many sailings go there.

I vote for Bonaire as well. Was there this past spring and going again in February. One of the prettiest and cleanest islands I've been to!
