Free Carnival Mardi Gras Parking in Port Canaveral

Go Port Plaza parking lot exclusively for Carnival Mardi Gas Cruisers

Carnival Mardi Gras Parking in Port Canaveral

Parking directly at Port Canaveral is expensive, so it’s no secret that many cruisers choose to park off site. But with extra fees and hidden costs appearing sneakily at checkout, the savings are never as great as they initially seem. So how do you find the actual lowest price for Port Canaveral cruise parking for your Carnival Mardi Gras sailing?

Look no further, Go Port’s FREE cruise parking package, exclusively offered for Carnival Mardi Gras cruisers, is the absolute best price in the Port Canaveral area. When you book with us, parking for your cruise is included with just the purchase of transfers to and from your ship.

What’s the catch? We can assure you there isn’t one. In fact, the incredible savings are just the beginning of what makes Go Port’s cruise parking stand out from the rest!

Here are 7 reasons why you should book free cruise parking in Port Canaveral with Go Port:

Reason 1: We are the LOWEST PRICE of all Cruise Parking Options

Reason 1: We are the LOWEST PRICE of all Cruise Parking Options

Pay per stay, not per day with Go Port’s flat rate pricing. Let’s take a look at other cruise parking options to compare how our pricing is unmatched:

Other Offsite Parking Lots | Pay Per Day: Beware of changing daily rates, hidden fees, and taxes. For starters, a Carnival Mardi Gras cruise from Port Canaveral is typically 8 days. When it comes to the “pay per day” pricing structure, each day your car is parked counts as a full day, even though your vehicle is not there for long on embarkation and debarkation days. Seems a bit unfair, right? You are also led to believe you are getting a deal with the “free shuttles” they promote for 1-4 passengers, but don’t be fooled – there is no deal here. On top of that, when you calculate the 8 days of parking, the additional fees and taxes you find at checkout result in the final total being far more than expected (especially if you forget to apply the coupon code they require to get the rates advertised). Now let’s break it down:

Typical Offsite Port Canaveral Cruise Parking Lot:

(8 days parking x $12.95 per day) + $0 shuttle transfers + $15.28 taxes/fees = $118.88 total

Go Port | Pay Per Stay: Upfront, flat rate pricing that doesn’t change at checkout or charge hidden fees and taxes. Ready for simple? Go Port’s FREE Cruise Parking Package is $0 for cruise parking and only $60 total for roundtrip cruise shuttle transfers for up to 4 passengers and $20 for each additional passenger up to 6! No promo code to enter, no taxes and absolutely no hidden fees added. It’s just $60 flat for the duration of your Carnival Mardi Gras cruise!

(8 days parking x $0 per day) + $60 shuttle transfers + $0 taxes/fees = $60 total

Reason 2: ALL Go Port Parking Spaces are Paved

Surprisingly, many cruise parking lots for Port Canaveral are not paved. Although their websites may show you pictures of paved parking, this is only available for a few select spaces. And if you want one, unfortunately you are going to pay a premium for it. Considering Florida’s tendency to rain quite often, this is incredibly inconvenient. The last thing you want to do is drag your luggage through muddy grass and ruin your vacation sandals! With Go Port, EVERY parking space is paved and lined, ensuring the cleanest offsite parking experience around.

For the safety of you and your vehicle, our lot is lighted, gated, and video monitored 24/7. Know that your car is in good hands and under careful watch while you sail stress-free. Plus, you get to keep your keys with you!

Don’t just take it from us! See what cruisers say about parking with us:

 

“You can park for the duration of your cruise, safely, they transport you to and from the ship, all included at a very reasonable price.”  – James Brady | Google Reviews

“We pulled up to Go Port plaza and were directed to a luggage drop off and check in. After parking our car, there was a wait of a few minutes to fill up the bus and we were off to the port. After disembarking the cruise, Go Port had a representative at a highly visible kiosk that got us on the bus and back to our car in no time. We will use them every time we cruise from Port Canaveral. Highly recommend.” – Jeff Smith | Google Reviews

“Easy. Friendly. Helpful. Parked for cruise, they handled the bags. Drop off and pick up was a breeze. Would recommend!” – Brandon Brinko | Google Reviews
