geenafeena Posted August 1, 2018 #1 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Any recommendations for NCL excursions? We will be docked and there for 3 days. We have been to Horseshoe Bay and the caves and the rum swizzle restaurant and dockyard area a few years ago. My boyfriend doesn't snorkel so we don't want an excursion with strictly snorkeling. If I could get a little time in that would be ok. Was thinking of sunset cruise as one thing. We have a $150 shore excursion credit but don't mind kicking in some money. Any suggestions would be great! Thank you. Sent from my SM-G928V using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjkacmom Posted August 1, 2018 #2 Share Posted August 1, 2018 I suggest going on the Bermuda port of call board and TripAdvisor, and not book through NCL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikkar Posted August 1, 2018 #3 Share Posted August 1, 2018 We really enjoyed the daytime glass bottom boat tour about a month ago. The one we took didn't include any snorkeling but I think there is one that does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firstmickey Posted August 2, 2018 #4 Share Posted August 2, 2018 We went last week and we did the Hidden Gems tour! It was amazing. We explored a dry cave, a wet cave, a cliff jump into a crystal clear lagoon (10 ft or 15 ft) and then lunch and ice cream. Then we were supposed to snorkel but the water was too rough in that area so they took us to the turtle sanctuary and we snorkeled with the turtles. The snorkeling part was the shortest part. The other activities were amazing. I'd highly recommend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
df5250 Posted August 2, 2018 #5 Share Posted August 2, 2018 A suggestion of something we did a couple of years ago when we had the excursion credit... we booked one ticket through the cruise line and two tickets directly with the tour operator. This allowed us to get the $50 Excursion Credit and save on the other two ticket prices! However, we did find that not all the NCL tours are able to be booked directly with the operator or thru other booking sites.

Beachiekeen Posted August 2, 2018 #6 Share Posted August 2, 2018 We also did Hidden Gems and loved it. We did it on the last day so we could still have a full day but didn’t have to worry about making it to the ship on time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginnyfyr Posted August 3, 2018 #7 Share Posted August 3, 2018 There are catamaran type trips you can book (on your own or through the ship) that have some snorkeling time built in. Have you been to St. George's? It's a lovely place to visit, easily accessible by the water ferry from the Dockyard. There are some beaches and forts within walking distance of it, too. The last time we were in Bermuda (last spring) there was a fun looking jet ski trip you could do right by the Dockyard. We didn't have time to do it but I saw ads for companies you could sign up with right there at the Dockyard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nachosupreme Posted August 3, 2018 #8 Share Posted August 3, 2018 My husband and I did jetsking while there on our honeymoon cruise. It was so much fun! You meet up right in the water off where the ship docks. I believe it was booked through KS Watersports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BostonGal35 Posted August 3, 2018 #9 Share Posted August 3, 2018 buy a 2 day bus and ferry pass. you can see the entire island safely and easily on your own. i recommend crystal caves, horseshoe/warwick long bay beaches, church bay for snorkeling, a climb to the top of gibbs hill light house, tom moore's jungle, and a walk or bike ride on a section of the bermuda rail trail.

gymbomb Posted August 3, 2018 #12 Share Posted August 3, 2018 We did the sunset catamaran cruise once and really enjoyed it. We had it booked again for our last cruise, but ended up missing it because my husband was sick. Generally we DIY Bermuda, but this is a fun excursion and was reasonably priced, especially with the excursion credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barb65 Posted August 7, 2018 #17 Share Posted August 7, 2018 There are all kinds of tours available to book at the dock plus some that NCL doesn't offer and also much cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
