Lots of great info here about tours and guides!!

I wonder how far in advance you booked your tours??

We are not arriving until November so I have lots of time to do research .

We sail next month and secured our private guides about 8 weeks ago.

I sale early March and I reserved last May.  I'm  one of those advanced planning types, however. I picked the company I wanted and they sent a standard program.

 

I emailed the company yesterday to confirm that we are still on their radar and to tweak their standard program with my own requests (e.g. we don't drink so visiting a bar is not high on our list).

Thanks for answering!

@caviargal,

Do I remember you from the Italy forums on Trip Adviser???

We booked the Viking Ocean trip to Cuba about five weeks before departure.  It wasn't a sold out cruise, so Viking was willing to work with us. We didn't need their free air, and we were in the final stages of choosing a cruise 

 

Good people.
