Excursion at Disembarkation

[Wuzzle10]

Hi 

We are on Explorer Sydney to Bali in January , our 1st Regent cruise! We will I believe be required to disembark early morning our flight is 8pm ! Do regent lay anything on or are you just taken for a very long time wait at the airport ! ?

Yes.  Usually, you will be off the ship NLT 0900H.  Certainly, out of your Suite, awaiting clearance from the local Port to begin disembarkation. 

 

Given that long lag time to air lift-off:  Regent many offer:  

 

1.  A "Day Stay" (reasonable expense) at a local hotel; 

2.  An excursion at the departure city to local sites.  If you are doing Regent Air, this will normally be at no cost to you. 

 This has been our experience at departure cities in, shall I say, larger metropolitan areas.  Have no specific experience at Bali.  Been there on previous Regent cruises, but only as a day-stop as part of a larger cruise. 

 

You will definitely want to check possibilities out with your Travel Agent (hopefully, someone with experience booking Regent and similar 5+star line cruises); or by contacting Regent directly.  You will certainly not be the only guests who will be in this particular bucket on that departure day--and making a similar inquiry.  

 

Have a great cruise!

 

GOARMY!

After our cruise in August which ended in Amsterdam (where our flight was canceled so we overnighted at an airport hotel), the late transfer to the airport included a pretty decent tour to Zaanse Schans (a museum village) and Edam (as in Edam cheese).
