DGNY Posted June 28, 2009 #1 Share Posted June 28, 2009 I know ship excursions are usually available 3-4 months prior to a cruise. I'm curious when people usually book private excursions. Do they tend to book up earlier than that? Or do people wait to browse the cruise ships offering before making decisions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eh2zed Posted June 28, 2009 #2 Share Posted June 28, 2009 We book our private tours as soon as we know our itinerary. Some private guides get booked quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GORDONCHICK Posted June 28, 2009 #3 Share Posted June 28, 2009 Depends on the ports as well. For Alaska, we booked our whale watching as soon as we could. We used a very small private company, and they book up early. I know by March, they were completely booked for the 2009 season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul929207 Posted June 28, 2009 #4 Share Posted June 28, 2009 I agree as soon as you know which private tours you want book them, before they book up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travelcat2 Posted June 28, 2009 #5 Share Posted June 28, 2009 Also agree that you should book your private excursions ASAP. Glad to hear that you use local sources for tours -- they are so much better than what the ship has to offer and, many times are priced more fairly.
