eknowlton Posted March 7, 2022 #1 Share Posted March 7, 2022 How strict are they with those in the bubble tours?? Will we be allowed to shop in the port area?? Also, any thoughts if this requirement will be lifted any time soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare sparks1093 Posted March 7, 2022 #2 Share Posted March 7, 2022 They escort you to and from the excursion area with no stops in between. This is in compliance with local rules so whether or not it will be lifted is up to each port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x lindsay x Posted March 7, 2022 #3 Share Posted March 7, 2022 In October we were escorted from the ship (we had to meet in a lounge, not on the pier), off the ship together, to the bus, and when we got back from the bus right back on the ship. There were people on both sides of the group to make sure everyone was together. Even on the ship they stopped others from getting off while we were to keep everyone together. It sounds strict but we still had a great time, and saved money on cheap souvenirs in the process. If you have enough time after the tour gets you back to the ship, you could reasonably have one adult stay with the under 5 child while the other goes out and shops.

cruisinqt Posted March 8, 2022 #4 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Carnival will keep doing this until the ports say it’s no longer necessary. Many ports aren’t even allowing cruise ships in. And those that are allowing the ships in are very concerned about covid being spread. A lot of these islands are very isolated and haven’t had a lot of covid exposure so they’re more vulnerable. I don’t see things changing anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
