resjes Posted April 30, 2019 #1 Share Posted April 30, 2019 (edited) sorry if this has been asked before...I tried the search function and too many things pop up with the word "cruise" in it, obviously, and "excursion." I have an excursion in Bermuda booked and a parasail excursion in Labadee. The description says that a boat takes me to these areas, but nothing about how I am supposed to return to the cruise. Does the same boat return me to the port or am I expected to find my way back?? **edit, both were booked thru RCI cruise planner. Although the cruise planner says the parasail excursion was vetted through a third party. Edited April 30, 2019 by resjes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awestover89 Posted April 30, 2019 #2 Share Posted April 30, 2019 Excursions booked through Royal include transportation to and from the ship/excursion, so you're covered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiffymom Posted April 30, 2019 #4 Share Posted April 30, 2019 Depends on the excursion they will have a boat that goes back and forth. So you can come and go as you please. Check your daily planner and it will tell you where and when to meet for departure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mets123 Posted April 30, 2019 #5 Share Posted April 30, 2019 (edited) Bermuda is different. Some of their excursions will end in the town of St. George's or Hamilton, and you have to arrange your own transportation back. This is so you can shop there. To get back, just take a ferry back to the Dockyard. It is not a problem. Time is about 60 minutes from St. George's and 25 from Hamilton. Labadee is a non issue. It's no more than a 10 - 15 walk from anywhere on the island. Edited April 30, 2019 by mets123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to maps, it is a 44 minute drive back to the port. I hope I'm not expected to get back on my own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless it says something like "shopping on your own" I wouldn't expect the excursion to leave you. Most of the excursions we've seen that have time for shopping specifically say something like "time to shop" and give you a specific time and location for the return shuttle to the ship.

mets123 Posted May 1, 2019 #8 Share Posted May 1, 2019 I can't answer that. Check the tour description or call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
resjes Posted May 1, 2019 Author #9 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Thanks, all. I called RCI last night and they said the excursions I picked have a ride back to the port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted May 1, 2019 #10 Share Posted May 1, 2019 EVERYTHING on Labadee is thru the ship....your parasail excursion will be from the beach...and that's where it will leave you. Simply walk back to the ship when you want! (Consider Labadee to be an extension of the ship!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
