markser Posted June 22, 2016 #1 Share Posted June 22, 2016 I have booked excursions for my December cruise. However, I thought the selection was rather small for a few ports. Does Regent add additional excursions after the initial list? If so, will I be notified or will I have to check frequently? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Portolan Posted June 22, 2016 #2 Share Posted June 22, 2016 New excursions may be added though in our experience not that often. They won't notify you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare RachelG Posted June 22, 2016 #3 Share Posted June 22, 2016 I have seen new excursions added even after boarding. Doesn't happen often, but sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travelcat2 Posted June 23, 2016 #4 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Curious to know which ports have less excursion options than others. Some places simply have less tour operators, buses, etc. When this is the case, additional options will probably not be forthcoming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For our upcoming Med cruise in October we found the excursion selection in both Nauplion and Mykonos to be very limited (5-6) compared to the 15+ in our other ports.

Travelcat2 Posted June 26, 2016 #6 Share Posted June 26, 2016 For our upcoming Med cruise in October we found the excursion selection in both Nauplion and Mykonos to be very limited (5-6) compared to the 15+ in our other ports. There is very little to do in Nauplion. My DH climbed approximately 1,000 steps up the hill (I only did 300 steps so do not remember what was at the top). We loved wandering through the streets of Mykonos and did not need an excursion. It is a beautiful place - one of our favorite islands in Greece.

newlondon Posted June 26, 2016 #7 Share Posted June 26, 2016 Usually the excursions from Mykonos have a trip to Delos. A fabulous site with the 5 lions! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newlondon Posted June 26, 2016 #8 Share Posted June 26, 2016 Hi Markser, I assume your cruise is the November Explorer. I checked the excursions and sure enough Delos is included. All of us are different and have different interests, but I would sign up for that in a nanosecond. BTW our visit is in Oct. '17 and that is what we will do.

JMARINER Posted June 26, 2016 #9 Share Posted June 26, 2016 The more remote and out of the way the location the more likely there might be new added shore ex. But the same reason the more likely that a pre-advertised one will be pulled. The tow areas that I can think of are Africa and Indian Ocean.

Portolan Posted June 26, 2016 #10 Share Posted June 26, 2016 Last fall in Aqaba, Jordan there were only a couple of tours offered...because everybody went to Petra on many, many buses (we heard of no one who wasn't accommodated). A tip for those who might do this in the future: choose the (very) long day Petra & Wadi Rum...it was all great and our 3 buses were at Petra hours ahead of the other Regent (and other tour) buses.

Rare RachelG Posted June 26, 2016 #11 Share Posted June 26, 2016 Definitely would do the Delos excursion in Mykonos. In Naphlion, if there is something that goes to Corinth, take it. Otherwise, you can climb th stairs to the castle, but don't really need an excursion to do that. We rented a car on our own and drove all around the peninsula. Great fun. One of our favorite ports as we stopped at a little restaurant with no menu and just ate what they brought us, which was delicious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
