Setlok Posted August 27, 2018 #1 Share Posted August 27, 2018 How busy is the excursion desk on embarkation day (generally speaking)? TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saturngrl Posted August 27, 2018 #2 Share Posted August 27, 2018 I've sailed several cruise lines and they have all been very busy on Embarkation Day. I recommend booking excursions in advance through the cruise line or ShoreTrips.com. Your TA may also have a recommendation for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nchikk Posted August 27, 2018 #3 Share Posted August 27, 2018 I've never had to wait at the Shore Ex desk soon after boarding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigCruze Posted August 27, 2018 #4 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Same no wait when boarding. First stop when we are on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshhawk Posted August 27, 2018 #5 Share Posted August 27, 2018 Excursion desk always seems busier around dinner time (but maybe that is a different crowd just in the same location) go when you board!. OR book in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beachbum53 Posted August 27, 2018 #6 Share Posted August 27, 2018 How busy is the excursion desk on embarkation day (generally speaking)? TIA I think it depends on the itinerary. If you have an itinerary that includes HMC and / or Grand Turk, and have booked a cabana, and are hoping to get a specific one, you'll need to get to the Excursions Desk right away after boarding. If you're planning to book an excursion that has a limited capacity, I would suggest booking it ahead on line, rather than wait until you board.

Garth2 Posted August 28, 2018 #8 Share Posted August 28, 2018 When we were on the Breeze last year we were able to book excursions 24/7 at a kiosk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raynvic Posted August 29, 2018 #9 Share Posted August 29, 2018 Refresh my memory, but couldn't you book excursions on your TV in the stateroom at one time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Setlok Posted August 30, 2018 Author #10 Share Posted August 30, 2018 I don't need to book my excursions, I need to get my villa assignment. So just wondering how long the line was going to be. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TIA I was curious because there are certain excursion you can only book on the ship. Good info! Even though people have contradicting info...lol It depends upon how early you embark. We have priority embarkation. I have not seen anyone at the Shore Excursion desk at that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So just wondering how long the line was going to be. :) Try to get the earliest check-in time. After you check in at home port, you'll receive a lower Zone number card. Upon embarkation, head right over to Excursion Desk. If it looks closed, go to Guest Services. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
