Shore excursions are organised day trips and tours ashore in each port you visit. Organised trips mean you are fully protected against mishaps and delays while ashore.
One of the best things about a cruise is the choice of destinations at your fingertips, no matter what you want from your break. Unpack once and relax while we take you to some of the very best hot spots or undiscovered gems wherever you choose to cruise!
Fortunately with so much choice, in every destination there will always be guides, trips and tours available for you to book- these are usually called 'Shore Excursions'
Before your holiday, take some time to decide whether you want to explore with an organised excursion, either booked with the cruise line or through our own recommended providers, or alternatively under your own steam - going where you want at your own pace.
You may even be able to book a ship to shore transfer from A to B before you head off on your own - all we ask is that you're back in time for anchors away according to the shipboard schedule. Just remember... hotels stay where they are but ships will leave without you!
