Can you book the Railway tour independently?

Hi,

 

Does anyone know whether you can book the Railway tour independently? It seems like the only way to do this is through the ship or a hotel.

From their website:

However, I'd suspect they'll inquire as to your arrival dates or where you are staying if you try to book independently. Vendors in the Caribbean are very conscious of the potential consequences of booking cruise passengers independently when also contracting for a cruise line excursion.

Does anyone know the cost?

The cost will vary because of the options available for the return to the port. The cheapest would be the provided bus and the more expensive would be returning by catamaran along the coast.

Again, either option would be a ship sponsored excursion so check you cruise lines St Kitts excursions for prices and information.

This is the email from the railway

"As guest of a cruise-line all booking most be done with the Cruise Ship"

Seems that if your on a cruise it has to be via the ship. Would be interesting to enquire and not mention you're on a cruise and see if the answer is different???
