Where to get a list of excursions for Costa Asia cruises?

[mikeerdas]

I'm trying to determine whether I want to go on a Costa Cruise, so have not booked yet. Is there anywhere I can view or download a list of port excursions offered for a specific sailing? In particular, I'm interested in excursions offered for the Malaysia/Thailand and China/Vietnam itineraries. Trying to get an idea of what is on offer at those ports--particularly, what snorkeling is available.

 

Any idea which itinerary has better snorkeling, e.g. the Malaysia/Thailand or the Vietnam-based cruises?

 

Thanks very much.

All the information you asked dor is available on the Costa Web site.

Dig around on the Costa website by Destination for Shore Excursions . Their Shore Excursions in Asia are excellent but they are priced in Euros and we found them to be as dear as poison . If you find a Port where you can do things yourself then go solo and save money . But in many cases the sights are some distance from the Port and you are at the mercy of the Cruise Lines . So they know you have to use their tours and sink the fangs in price wise to maximize their profit margins .

I typically do ports on my own and/or book private tours on my own (lower prices). Trying to get an idea generally of what's on offer at some "lesser known" ports in Malaysia. Specifically, wondering about great snorkeling opportunities there as well as in Thailand.
