How much can you do in one day? (Mo Bay)

[cruisin zonies]

Hi cruisers- a few questions regarding Mo Bay and how long tours take, etc. We are going to book a private tour to Mayfield Falls, Rocklands Bird Sanctuary & lunch like to Culloden Cafe as someone has recommended in another post.

 

The ship's schedule says we're going to be there from 8:00 AM - 5:30 PM. That's 9 1/2 hours but is it really? How much time do we allow for getting on and off the ship? How early do we book the tour? How far away is Mayfield Falls? Some of us really want to do the canopy tour but don't want to miss these other sites- is it even possible to do both?

5:30 is the time the ship sails. you need to be on board at 5 pm. If you get in line early to exit the ship you can get off quickly because there is no tendering.
