NanaPam00 Posted December 20, 2023 #26 Share Posted December 20, 2023 The day we were there Soggy Dollar had really long lines from a Carnival excursion that had arrived before us. We much preferred the quiet atmosphere and shade at Hendo's - the food was good there, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volk904 Posted December 21, 2023 #27 Share Posted December 21, 2023 You don’t have to take a Royal Excursion to get to JVD. Check the other Excursion companies there is several that offer excursions at most ports world wide. Excursioneer is one of the. We just found some others off our ship on the cruise board for our cruise and did a group charter. Cost less and we got 5 hours instead of 3. Check with Aristocrat.

Rare Cruise till you drop Posted December 21, 2023 #28 Share Posted December 21, 2023 (edited) I just received the cancellation email and contacted Celebrity customer service by the chat function and learned it was supposed cancelled by the tour operator. And I have the credit issued already. This excursion was for a Jan 2025 cruise I guess we are now on plan B Thanks for everyone’s feedback Edited December 21, 2023 by Cruise till you drop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovey Life Posted January 23 #41 Share Posted January 23 Sounds about right…… I don’t remember exactly….. we had plenty of time to explore the beach, swim, shop, have lunch and of course drink a couple of pain killers! There wasn’t a charge for the chairs, the beach wasn’t busy….. we just sat right down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
