ATV trhough Carnival

[lbfluffy]

I just booked the ATV excursion for our Miracle cruise in March. We have always booked from outside tour operators. But due to the fact our ship leaves at 3 pm on the day we wanted to book, we figured it would be safer to book through Carnival so we wouldn't be late getting back. Has anyone done this tour through Carnival? And about how long do you actually get to be on the ATV? It says it is a 45 minute bus ride to the destination and the tour is five hours.

I did this tour through Princess (same operator as Canival). The ride there is about 45-60 minutes. So factor in 2 hrs of the 5 hrs going and coming. With the safety briefing and riding we spent about 1.5-2hrs with the ATVs. We then came back and had a complimentary lunch of tacos and beer. I enjoyed the ride through the countryside. The ride out to the site is nice also.

I didn't notice it included lunch. That would be a nice touch. Do you know what tour operator they used? And how many people usually are allowed on the tour? I don't want it crowded either. Yes I am picky, aren't I?
