Departing from New Orleans, on Mariner of the Seas
Trace the footsteps of legends and soak up the rhythm of the Deep South before setting sail on a sun-drenched Caribbean escape. Your journey begins in Memphis, where blues, soul and rock ‘n’ roll come alive—highlighted by a visit to the iconic Graceland. Travel in classic American style aboard Amtrak to the vibrant streets of New Orleans, where jazz, Creole cuisine and historic charm set the scene.
Then, swap city sights for ocean views as you board Mariner of the Seas for a 7-night Caribbean cruise. Unwind at sea and explore tropical highlights including the colourful island of Cozumel, the crystal-clear waters of George Town and the laid-back shores of Falmouth. Blending music heritage, cultural discovery and island relaxation, this itinerary offers a rich and varied holiday from start to finish.

This isn’t your same-old, never-bold weekend. This is a boredom-busting getaway for the whole crew.
The newly amped up Mariner of the Seas is packed with more ways to play on the most maxed-out short getaway ever. Launch yourself into a virtual world on a new bungee trampoline experience – Sky Pad. Hang ten on the newly added FlowRider surf simulator or race down The Perfect Storm waterslides. Bond over family-style Tuscan eats at Jamie’s Italian by Jamie Oliver, or kick off date night at The Bamboo Room. Ditch the road trip for an action-packed cruise ship, with quick cruises sailing from Orlando.
