the_scarecrow_in_oz Posted August 26 #1 Share Posted August 26 Does anyone know the current cost of the "Behind the Scenes Tour" of the Prima? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mking8288 Posted August 26 #2 Share Posted August 26 (edited) Has been $149 p/p for the paid one on both our 2013 and 2014 Prima sailing, we took the shorter & complimentary ones for Platinum/+ members. YMMV as always If you already booked, lookup the price under Shore Excursion 😉 Edited August 26 by mking8288 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_scarecrow_in_oz Posted August 30 Author #3 Share Posted August 30 (edited) Thanks. That's kind of what I thought, but needed confirmation. As interesting as it could be, $300 per couple is just way to pricey for me. I'll settle for watching episodes of "Mighty Cruise Ships".

First passenger should have $50 off and both should get a percentage off depending on their Latitude status. That should get it under $300. That is unless they do not count it as an excursion.

Another option would be to wait until you have sailed enough times to accumulate at least 75 points in the Latitudes program. As a Platinum member, you are entitled to a free Behind the Scenes Tour on each cruise longer than five days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seattle_Guy Posted August 30 #7 Share Posted August 30 We did it for $150/pop on Prima, pricey, but I thought it was cool! Nice activity for a sea day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although the OP may not wish to spend several thousand dollars on additional cruises to get a "free" tour...😛 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be, I prepaid online when I went, still doesn't make it eligible for the discounts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare shof515 Posted August 30 #14 Share Posted August 30 When booking the tour online before the cruise, you will receive an confirmation that says Entertainment Confirmation. in this confirmation, it will show up with the following: BHSX01 Behind the Scenes - Ship Name with the date/time.. it will not show up on the shore excursion confirmation 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know of anything currently but I suspect anything listed as entertainment that has a fee and requires reservations. I pretty much stick to the smaller ships but there might be other things on the larger ships. Anybody remember the dinner theater in the Spiegel tent?

Listed under the excursions for Great Stirrup Cay are the "clamshell rental" and "standup paddleboard rental" - neither of which are eligible for the $50 excursion credit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They sell the port shuttle tickets as well, but they still aren't excursions, entitling you to the $50 discount. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
