This exclusive trip is open to members of the Burleson Area Chamber of Commerce and their employees. Join fellow professionals—and consider sending or bringing your employees—for five unforgettable nights aboard Royal Caribbean’s Mariner of the Seas, departing from Galveston on October 17, 2026.
This isn’t your typical networking event—think meaningful conversations over morning coffee on deck, connecting with like-minded business leaders during casual mixers, and building lasting relationships in a relaxed, no-pressure setting. With dedicated group events designed to foster collaboration and idea-sharing, it’s an excellent way for you and your team to grow professionally while enjoying a well-deserved break.
But this trip is also about you. Between networking opportunities, enjoy all the ship has to offer: world-class dining, incredible entertainment, vibrant nightlife, a full-service spa, and endless activities for every interest. Take in breathtaking views as we visit the stunning ports of Costa Maya and Cozumel, Mexico—each offering its own blend of culture, adventure, and sun-soaked beaches.
Whether you’re relaxing poolside, exploring exotic destinations, or collaborating with peers, this journey promises to deliver more than just business growth—it’s an opportunity to recharge, return home refreshed and excited about your business, all while creating memories that will last a lifetime.

Ports of Call
Galveston (Days 1, 6)
Costa Maya (Day 3)
Beginning where the Mayan Riviera ends, the Costa Maya stretches along the coastline up to Belize. The Costa Maya is the last remaining section of coastal properties yet to be exploited and there are acres of coastal land with absolutely no development. The odd fishing village spots the landscape but not much beyond that. Flying along the coastline you encounter numerous cenotes and you can still see the outlines and impressions of villages that were there centuries ago.
Experience the ancient Mayan City of Chacchoben. Largely unexplored until 1999, this Mayan site dates back to 360 A.D. when it played an important role in the distribution of such precious items as wood, jade and exotic birds.
Cozumel (Day 4)
