Shore Excursions
Make the most of your time in each port with an optional shore excursion. While you're free to explore any port on your own, many cruisers opt for organized excursions for their knowledgeable guides, access to restricted locations and unmatched convenience. Most excursions pick you up at the pier and drop you back off at the ship so you don't have to worry about transportation at port - or about arriving late and missing your ship. Start by browsing our destination to learn about their ports of call and the most popular things to do in each, or contact our experienced cruise consultants for help selecting the best excursions for you.
We recommend booking your shore excursions with either The Cruise Web's third party excursions partner, Shore Excursions Group, or through the cruise line directly.
There are many advantages to booking with Shore Excursions Group. For starters, you can enjoy prices up to 40% lower than cruise lines! Plus, Shore Excursions Group offers a money-back guarantee, additional excursion options, guaranteed return to ship and 24/7 traveler support at 1-866-703-0606.
NOTE: Shore excursions booked through Shore Excursions Group are NOT operated by the cruise line, but instead are arranged by Shore Excursions Group.
