Group Baby Sitting Hours In Port

[dshefter]

My wife and I have booked an 8:30 a.m. excursion in St. Lucia (Zip lining) and wanted to know if the Group Babysitting on the Pearl opens a little earlier than 9 a.m. for this particular port. We have a 4 1/2-year-old daughter who can't do this particular excursion and we'll need to put her in group babysitting for the 4 hours we are on this particular excursion. But the NCL Web site says group babysitting doesn't open until 9 a.m. on Shore Days. Can someone tell me if they adjust for the days the ship gets into port at 8 a.m. and there are early excursions?

 

Thanks.

I am 99% sure that they open sitting on port days 30 minutes before the first tour is scheduled to depart.

Good to know. Thanks.

That is for the NCL Sponsored tours...not privately scheduled tours btw. I also believe that they close for an hour or two for staff lunch as well. I will have to look back at my recent cruise Daily's.

Never Mind...I just looked it up. Group Babysitting is available from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on port days. It is the At Sea days where they close from 12:00 noon to 2:00 p.m. and 5:00-7:00 p.m.

We are on an NCL-sponsored tour at 8:30 a.m. in St. Lucia. I'm hoping Group Babysitting begins around 8 a.m. on this day, so we can put our 4 1/2-year-old daughter there and we can make the excursion in time. We're doing zip-lining, so we can't take her on this particular tour.
