Rare Laszlo Posted June 21, 2021 #1 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Finally got our booking and went online to check out a few things. What is the unlimited excursions for $659? and is that PP or total? Depending on the price I can see where it might be a good deal. We normally book excursion direct with the tour operator, not thru the ship. We already have $600 OBC so it might be worth to look into it. Our cruise is 10 day, with 6 port days Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Among them is an excursions PDF where on the first page Unlimited Passport will be explained along with YWYW, which for most folks is a far far better deal - particularly if you’ve selected excursions as your O Life perk. You should also search “YWYW” here on CC where you’ll find several very comprehensive explanations of how the excursion packages/programs work and the strategies to get the most bang for your buck on any excursions requiring payment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mauibabes Posted June 21, 2021 #6 Share Posted June 21, 2021 The Unlimited Collection like YWYW is Per Person. While the Unlimited May offer up to a 40% discount, when all is said and done with our selection of Free tours and mix of pricier excursions, the YWYW Package comes out cheaper. We were on a Southampton to Reykjavik to NYC cruise in 2019 and by the time we purchased tours for everyday, even with some Private tours, the average cost for all tours was under $80 PP which I think is VERY reasonable. Your TA can send you a PDF of the tours, I always print them out and it is a lot of pages but then we can both read thru all the tours and then we discuss pros and cons, make notes and then decide. For us, that is easier than looking at each tour from our Booking on line. ciao, Gerry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two of the six ports will be taking a cab to the beach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It significantly shortens the length of the printed doc. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
