Many thanks to everyone who answered my question - it has given us some great info.

Thank you very much for your thoughts which were helpful rather than sarcastic - much appreciated

So we are off on Serenade of the Seas on 11.10.14 for our first ever cruise and I am wondering if there is anyone else who is confused about shore excursions?? I'm seriously hoping that it's not just me !!! I would be very interested to hear any advice or comments about whether, in general, these excursions are good value or with a good deal of planning & organisational ability, we could see the sites we want to by organising it ourselves. I was all excited when I downloaded the very long brochure of shore excursions and then started putting sticky notes on the ones I was interested in until I actually sat down and added up how much this was all going to cost and then I started getting worried. What do you think?? Would love to hear from you.
