Earliest time to purchase excur. on Carnival?

[Seafrost]

When is the earliest opportunity to purchase an shore excursion on the Triumph? I don't believe you can't get them prior to leaving so when do they go on sale? Is it right after the shore talk?

[imsulin]

You can go to the Shore Excursion desk right after you board to buy your excursions. You're right - Carnival won't allow you to pre-book them on-line (like [B]other[/B] cruise lines will), but you can get a list of the excursions on their website. I haven't checked it out lately, and have heard that some include prices, and some don't. Some popular ones like dolphin swims fill up pretty quickly, as they have a limited number of participants.

On Carnival ships that are equipped with FunVision, you may book/order shore excursions directly from your cabin, usually after 1 pm on embarkation day.

Perhaps something else as well. Watch this space.
