2mellon2 Posted June 24, 2017 #1 Share Posted June 24, 2017 July 6 to 26 cruise to Iceland. When excursions are wait-listed are there usually a chance of it opening up?? Never had this happen on other cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulchili Posted June 24, 2017 #2 Share Posted June 24, 2017 It depends on whether the cruise line can get additional services from the local agents (guides, buses, tickets where applicable, etc). Passengers will be accommodated from the waiting list if possible in the order of their requests. If you are interested, you should put your name on the list and hope for the best (or arrange private tours, if possible). You may want to check out the ports of call forum for Iceland for tour guides and tour suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammiedawg Posted June 24, 2017 #3 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Oceania holds back some spots for those who don't use Internet much. Go to the destination desk the first day to see what is available. Their excursions are often overpriced. Iceland is a great locale for private tours. When we were there there were quite a few groups sharing tours organized on CC roll calls. Have you checked your roll call? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andee Posted June 24, 2017 #5 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Reykjavik is very easy to explore on foot; there are several excellent museums and a free walking tour. What are your other ports? We were in Iceland for 24 days last September. Sent from my SM-G930V using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2mellon2 Posted June 24, 2017 Author #6 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Thank you for information. Our problem is where to store luggage after cruise since our flight out of Reykjavík is not until 6PM. Cruise is not offering any assistance except for transport to airport at 9:00am on day of arrival. Any suggestions would be helpful. Not really sure how to use this site we are communicating on.

I was in Reykjavik last month and stored my luggage. Took a taxi there...unfortunately I can't remember where this was, but I took a taxi from the port and it wasn't far...too far with luggage, though. Google Reykjavik luggage storage...later I picked up the luggage and took a bus to the airport. All very convenient! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzie's Mom Posted June 25, 2017 #8 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Check with ToursByLocals.com to see if they have any tours in Reykjavik. They can pick you up at the dock, take you on a tour, drop you at the airport when done. Sent from my XT1254 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go-Bucks! Posted June 25, 2017 #9 Share Posted June 25, 2017 You can also get a ride to the wonderful Blue Lagoon geothermal spa on the way to the airport. I think they will store your luggage while you're there. Then they'll take you on to the airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2mellon2 Posted June 25, 2017 Author #10 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Thank you to Paulchili, Andee, Barrheadlass, and Ozzie's Mom for the information that sounds very useful. I was able to finally call a hotel in Reykjavik after 3 days of not being to the correct number. They said they could store luggage for me! I feel very relieved at the moment but I will look into ToursByLocals.com so that the day is not wasted and they could get us to the airport too as you suggested. 2 Mellon2:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
