thefirstnoel Posted February 6, 2015 #1 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I read on a few reviews that if you book an excursion through the ship (Celebrity) and use your credit card, they charge you 15% aside from the excursion for using the credit card? Has anyone had this experience or know if this is true or not. Guess I can find out through Celebrity but wanted to ask you pro's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisead Posted February 6, 2015 #3 Share Posted February 6, 2015 I believe you might be confusing the 15% charged for any beverages purchased on board, and for the beverage package, if you purchase one. There's nothing added to shore excursions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sail7seas Posted February 6, 2015 #4 Share Posted February 6, 2015 There is no add on charge of the sort you ask about for ship sponsored excursions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sail7seas Posted February 6, 2015 #6 Share Posted February 6, 2015 The extra 15% charged on beverage tabs is tip for the server. There is no tip charged for excursions though you should feel free to tip at the end of your tour, if you wish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefirstnoel Posted February 6, 2015 Author #7 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Thanks to those of you who clarified the NO 15% extra charge for excursions booked through the ships excursions. (Celebrity) As they say, majority rules! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
