mialover Posted November 22, 2011 #1 Share Posted November 22, 2011 Is it possible to book the Allura Catamaran to Stingray City directly if you are on a Carnival Cruise? I e-mailed them yesterday and have not heard back. I imagine it would be cheaper if I book the excursion directly through the company rather than through Carnival. Any help is appreciated.

IDK if you are allowed too. Pretty sure Carnival has an agreement with most of those excursions that they are not allowed to take outside bookings from cruise passengers. On a side note... we REALLY enjoyed that trip.. the catamaran was clean, beautiful and relaxing. It wasn't overcrowded on our sailing and it was a nice way to travel to Stingray City...

golfadj Posted November 23, 2011 #3 Share Posted November 23, 2011 More likely to get answer on port of call pages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mialover Posted November 23, 2011 Author #4 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I searched the Cayman Island threads and couldn't find anything, which is why I decided to post in the Carnival board first. I have also posted in the Cayman Islands board now. Thanks. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klfrodo Posted November 23, 2011 #5 Share Posted November 23, 2011 There are a couple of others that I highly recommend. One being Captain Marvins http://www.captainmarvins.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mialover Posted November 23, 2011 Author #7 Share Posted November 23, 2011 The reason I wanted to do Allura rather than some of the other tours is because I don't want to snorkel, just see the sting rays. Just about all of the tours I have seen other than Allura are at least 2 stop tours, with separate snorkeling included. I am not a fan of being in the water with fish and the sting rays will be plenty for me! :o I have read nothing but good things about the Allura tour so if I must book through Carnival, I will... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a great trip and not too expensive, as I remember. You will have a good time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nofishforme Posted November 23, 2011 #9 Share Posted November 23, 2011 we did the Allura excursion last may and it was worth every penny . this also includes transport to and from i think the cab will cost what you save it was out of the way in a private marina Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
