Corklou Posted November 20, 2016 #1 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Is it more expensive to book excursions on the ship than online before hand ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonTowner Posted November 20, 2016 #2 Share Posted November 20, 2016 Not only is it more expensive for a ship's tour, but the group is likely to be a lot larger than booking with a local operator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corklou Posted November 20, 2016 Author #3 Share Posted November 20, 2016 I realise that the ship excursions are more expensive , but what I really want to know is wether it's cheaper to book online before cruise or on the ship Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonTowner Posted November 21, 2016 #4 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Sorry, can't help there as we don't book ship excursion. Always book with local operators or DIY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Mary229 Posted November 21, 2016 #5 Share Posted November 21, 2016 It is very easy to check ahead of time. The cruise lines' excursions have become closer to fair market price in recent years. On a recent cruise the 5% difference was a small price to pay to assure we would arrive back in time. I like to look at shoretrips or others to find different experiences than offered by the line. I am a big fan of the free/tip based walking tours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimAOk1945 Posted November 21, 2016 #7 Share Posted November 21, 2016 (edited) I haven't noticed any significant price difference when I do price comparison. I prefer book cruise line excursions prior to going on our cruises. If you wait until you are aboard, the excursion you want may be completely booked up.
