gskimmel Posted August 13, 2018 #1 Share Posted August 13, 2018 This is our first time on Silversea and I have a question about excursion wait lists. Excursion reservations opened today and an excursion we want is already closed and we are waitlisted. Will Silversea expand the number of tours if enough people are waitlisted or should I pursue private option? Thank you Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jpalbny Posted August 13, 2018 #2 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Possibly, but if you tell us the specific port and the excursion, we might have a better chance of giving you some better advice. Some excursions are more limited (and therefore, less likely to be expanded) than others. But in general, private options are usually better, assuming that the excursion you want can be arranged privately. And they are often cheaper as well.

gskimmel Posted August 13, 2018 Author #3 Share Posted August 13, 2018 The port is Cozumel and the tour goes to Chichen Itza. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unibok Posted August 13, 2018 #4 Share Posted August 13, 2018 When I sailed on the Wind last March, some small excursions were so popular that they added multiple time options. From the Waitlist, I was notified by email that they had opened new bookings, and that I had automatically been put in one of the new times. If it is something you are genuinely interested in, stay on the waitlist and they will get back to you. Of course, you can also pursue your own arrangements while you wait :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gskimmel Posted August 13, 2018 Author #5 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Just making a post to close the conversation. I just received an email from Silversea where they expanded the tour and confirmed our spots. Issue resolved. Thanks all!

Rare jpalbny Posted August 13, 2018 #6 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Great! Now we all have our answer. Thanks for letting us know. I don't have direct experience with this port, but Tulum and Chichen Itza are the big tour sites from there. So I'd have been surprised if there wasn't added capacity.
