Excursion Rating Comparison

[athena73]

Hi all and TIA for your help.

 

I am cruising with my 70 yo Mom in the Mediterranean. For her comfort, we are booking all our excursions through the ship. In the past, we have cruised on Carnival and RCI. Are the NCL excursion activity levels comparable to other cruise lines? For example, what might be rated as "Easy" on RCI or CCL also fall under "Easy" on NCL? My Mom's theory is that the demographic for NCL is older than the others and the ratings reflect that.

I don't know that there's any basis in fact for that theory.

 

But you could look at the independent tour operators anyway. With a little research you can probably figure out which ones work with the ship. Even if you don't plan to book through them, the activity descriptions on their websites would give you a point of view separate from the cruise lines.

Thanks! That is a direction I didn't think of going.
