Best Price Guarantee?

Do you think this is worth trying to submit?

Also, if they don't approve it, I can cancel my excursion with Carnival, right? Our cruise isn't until 11-16-16.

 

 

Thanks!

Try. The worst that can happen is they turn it down. And yes, you can cancel your Carnival excursion and rebook through the other vendor if you choose.

I believe someone here on CC recently had a situation wherein Carnival would not honor the 110% guarantee because a relatively small detail of the private excursion made it different enough (in their eyes) to reject the claim. I think the detail in that situation was the tour pick up and drop-off arrangements and these two tours you're looking at may have that same situation - the private tour picks you up at the Belize cruise terminal and it reads like the Carnival tour might leave directly from the ship. I may have misread it however. Belize is still a tendering port, right? But, as Cruising Christine suggests, go ahead and submit and see what happens - nothing ventured, nothing gained.

I have a friend who cruised in July and booked an excursion from Progreso. She then found a very similar (not identical) excursion but they honored the price guarantee and she got $60 OBC.

I think the tours are a bit different in that the pick up point might not be the same and the Carnival one mentions where lunch will be etc. I would say submit the form, you have nothing to lose if you decide the 2nd one is a better fit for you.

 

You can cancel, but I don't think you can once you board. If it were me, and I decided on the private one, I'd book it right after I got an answer from Carnival and then cancel with them. Have fun!
