Costco Cruises to South America
Despite its large land mass and various destinations of note, South America is generally not regarded as much of a cruise destination, at least not by the enormous segment of the cruise market constituted by American vacationers. Obviously, the Caribbean is popular, and a good deal of cruises go as far south as the Panama Canal, but few break into the Southern Hemisphere. There are, however, several Costco cruises to South America throughout the year, and there are a few important things you need to know about these particular offerings from Costco Travel. Below we have enumerated these few important things about Costco cruises to the South America, which involve not only the cruises themselves, but also how to book them. Read more […] -
To Which Ports in Mexico do Costco Cruises Sail?
Having recently published an article about Costco cruises to Mexico, we thought it would be helpful to round the subject out by listing the specific ports in Mexico you can sail to on a Costco cruise. As with any country, some places are worth visiting and others are not, and when taking a cruise somewhere, essentially the only places you visit are the port cities. Thus, it is especially important to know Costco cruises’ Mexican ports, which are Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlan, Cabo San Lucas, Huatulco, Acapulco, La Paz, Loreto, Costa Maya, Cozumel, Puerto Chiapas, Guaymas, Topolobampo, and Zihuatanejo.

Costco Cruises to the Panama Canal
The Panama Canal generally isn’t regarded as a cruise destination per se. Rather, it a passageway through which a cruise ship might sail, and it is also a relatively common stop for cruise ships traveling in this region of the globe. Even so, Costco Travel does essentially market the Panama Canal as a standalone cruise destination, and thus there could be said to be Costco cruises to the Panama Canal. In other words, there are Costco cruises that are advertised on the basis of the fact that they go to the Panama Canal. However, there are various difficulties with finding these cruises, so we have done our best to sort out the Costco cruises to the Panama Canal below. Read more […] -
Costco Cruises to North America
North America is generally a cruise departure point, not a destination, and even when a cruise destination is in North America, like Alaska or Hawaii, the cruise is generally marketed as a cruise to that particular destination. Thus, you hear of plenty of cruises to Alaska, but not many “cruises to North America.” However, Costco Travel does market North America as a cruise destination – that is, there are a number of Costco cruises to North America – and below we have outlined what these cruises are (often cruises to New England and Canada). We have also included a couple of notes related to booking Costco cruises to North America because of the way Costco organizes their listings. Read more […] -
Costco Cruises to Mexico
To many Americans, “Mexico” is practically synonymous with “vacation destination,” and while this is obviously a problematically narrow view of large and culturally rich nation, this doesn’t change the fact that millions of tourist from the U.S. funnel into Mexico every year. Given the volume of tourism, it makes sense that there are lots of cruises to Mexico, and also that Costco Travel offers plenty of these cruises. (Costco Travel, at least at this point, only caters to their U.S. members, so obviously Mexico is a focus of their operations.) To give you an idea of what Costco cruises to Mexico are available, we’ve compiled a guide that spells out the range of possibilities, as well as touch on booking Mexican cruises with Costco as we conclude.

Costco Cruises to the South Pacific
The geographical region known as the “South Pacific” is somewhat ill-defined – the term is used differently depending on its context, and it isn’t always clear exactly what countries constitute the South Pacific. However, in the context of Costco Cruises, a division of Costco Travel, the South Pacific has a concrete meaning, and thus it is possible to provide an overview of Costco’s cruises to the South Pacific, which is precisely what we have done below. We also explain how to book Costco cruises to the South Pacific, which the Costco Travel website makes needlessly confusing. Read more […]
