Bon Voyage Gifts - Port of New Orleans

[SxyEbnyFem]

Has anyone used a gift basket service in New Orleans that will deliver to the ship? My bf's bday is the day we set sail on the Conquest and I would like to order a nice gift basket for him to be delivered to our cabin prior to cruising. Has anyone ever used a service outside of Carnival regarding gift baskets? Thanks in advance for any info.

Happy sailing!

I DID know of two shops in the Quarter that did this, BUT they both recently stopped - because their gifts never seemed to get to the recipients, even tho they delivered them to the ship!

Also, a regular on the Carnival board said she had ordered a basket from a shop, and it wasn't delivered.

So - be careful. You'll probably be better off using Carnival's gift services. Sorry I can't be of more help.

********I'm adding to this after I just read the post a few under this one, entitled "Just Because of YOU". Go to that thread and read the replies. Sounds like your answer.***********

Did you look at carnivals pages for gift ideas? you can have the cabin decorated before you board for 32.00. You can order him drink coupons or photo coupons. Even the romance package.

Look under gifts and services.

Me again. I talked with a friend of mine in N.O. today to get this info for Hoski.

She highly recommended:

Celebrations! Gift Baskets, Inc.
1/866-244-9031

She said it's a local company and they deliver, as well as ship to other locations.
