Sacto Rick Posted August 6, 2017 #2 Share Posted August 6, 2017 You never know so I would bring it. We were on a 9 day land tour and finished with a 4 day cruise down the inside passage. We had repellent but never used it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPad using Forums To a certain extent, it may depend on the type of shore excursions you are taking. If you are leaving the port cities in general, I would recommend a small bottle of repellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Aurora Posted August 6, 2017 #5 Share Posted August 6, 2017 I doubt that our OP will need mosquito repellent that late in the season. But most, if not all, of the major manufacturers of repellent now offer their product on saturated wipes individually wrapped in foil packets. Think of those hand wipes that restaurants may offer to those who order messy to eat rib or crab meals. Same idea, but those wipes are saturated with insect repellent. Very easy to pack, and we find that my husband and I generally share one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted August 7, 2017 #6 Share Posted August 7, 2017 I would bring it just to be on the safe side but hopefully you won't need it. I would carry the wipes as Northern Aurora mentioned. Have a great cruise. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarimaJ Posted August 7, 2017 #7 Share Posted August 7, 2017 I just got back and didn't need it anywhere except if you are hiking in the woods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
