Requirements to disembark from a cruise ship

[roysue]

I am scheduled to arrive in Barbados on the Enchanted  Princess in March.  When I booked this cruise, which seems like eons ago, I set up a private excursion for a catamaran trip.  I see now that Barbados is requiring a pcr test for cruise passengers.  I can't see how I could possibly get that done.  Does anyone have any insight?

Great question, we're in the same situation in April. Hope someone can help us.

On P&O they are carrying out PCR tests on ship at a cost, these were also available on Cunard on our Xmas cruise.

This is a fluid situation.   My understanding  is that government approved providers, including taxis, are allowed into the port area.  From there you are allowed to negotiate  with the excursion provider.

Curious where you saw that?

It was in the Barbados covid information sheet through the website.
