Tropical Tapestry – Merida & Progreso
About this cruise
Sometimes you just need a few days out of your routine. This one sails from New Orleans on December 12, 2026, spends 5 nights visiting Cozumel and Progreso (Mérida), and gets you back before anyone really notices you were gone. The sea days at each end give the whole trip a natural arc: build-up, exploration, cool-down. Turquoise water, white sand, and that particular Caribbean slowness where nothing feels urgent. If one port sticks with you, it'll probably be Progreso (Mérida), Gateway to the ancient Mayan world of Yucatán. Roughly 8 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Carnival Valor has 12 dining spots on board, most of them included. It's the kind of trip you actually remember afterwards.
