Dear RichT1 Thank you very much for your question. I am delighted to hear that you are interested in our British Isles voyage on board Silver Spirit. It's quite a lovely itinerary! Hopefully, by September we may not need verified shore excursions, but we will of course abide by the regulations outlined by the UK authorities. If indeed we need to offer verified shore excursions on this future voyage, they will be included in the fare.  Barbara
