Milly1966 Posted January 13, 2019 #1 Share Posted January 13, 2019 We are sailing on Horizon in a few weeks and am wondering if the excursion desk will be open right away when we get on the ship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlobMike Posted January 13, 2019 #2 Share Posted January 13, 2019 I do believe they are. Question though, why don't you book prior to sailing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABQrobin Posted January 13, 2019 #3 Share Posted January 13, 2019 I think they are open on embarkation day BUT we always book online before cruise. We really don't think the staff at the desk knows the answers to most questions about individual excursions (not their fault, they are on the ship, not out doing the excursions themselves). A couple of times we have had to change excusions during our cruise (excursion canceled due to weather, port change, someone sick, etc) and it was very frustrating for us. The desk people do their best, but really I would rather read online about each excursion and pick myself rather than have the desk staff tell me what excursion is "great".

SlobMike Posted January 13, 2019 #4 Share Posted January 13, 2019 Piggy backing off what @ABQrobin had said, you can research these excursion through the CL and also check around on the shipmate app. I set up a note shared w my DW so we can do our research and share each of our thoughts with each other.

They never gave us a minute to use the bathroom! i have taken the tours on two different ships and they was always a break in the middle of the tour. One break is usually in the middle when they are near the crew mess or the crew HR office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
