The image is dated 2018 but I expect the sales office will be back in operation somewhere nearby I would guess they will have something open for the morning hours before the Visitor Information opens like in the past.. Eithier kiosks or something in the cruise terminals. The Visitor Information Centre opens at 10:00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hancock Posted May 9, 2022 #29 Share Posted May 9, 2022 At the terminal in Hamilton, you can buy a book of 15 tickets for $37.50 cash. Buy two tokens to get the two of you to Hamilton and buy the pass. A 2 day pass for two would be over $60. We're going to be in Bermuda for 3 days on our cruise. We'll buy the book of tickets. Happen to have 2 tokens and 2 tickets left from our last visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chong67 Posted May 17, 2022 #30 Share Posted May 17, 2022 My ship comes in at 3 PM. What can I do then, its too late to go to Hamilton right? The next day its a the whole day. I am thinking if I should get a $19 pass or just get tokens. The token can take you from the yard to St George? The last day, my ship leave at 1 PM. I wonder if I got time to take the bus to the island in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a token each way. If you want to take the buses and ferries on Monday then a pass might make sense. You could take the ferry to St. George’s and then a bus to Hamilton and a ferry back to the Dockyard with a stop or two along the way.

The post office in St. George’s is easy to find. It is on Water St. About half way towards the town square. It would only take you a couple of minutes to check and see if they have them.

Can we buy as many tokens as we wish at the Dockyard? Not a book of 15 or a day pass …say 4 for 2 return fares to Hamilton?? We are on the June 2nd Celebrity Summit cruise and will be in Bermuda on a weekend (wrecked all our plans and I don’t think the passes are worthwhile now). Also - someone mentioned “cash”. if we don’t buy tokens can we pay with a $5 bill each way on the ferries? No? Thanks for any help!

The ferry is only suspended if the seas are very rough. For Bermuda forcasts use this link. http://www.weather.bm The weather apps on phones use an algorithm. The Bermuda weather service is usually more accurate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joesantos Posted June 1, 2022 #42 Share Posted June 1, 2022 Just to Bermuda in RCL adventure May 14,2022 ferry parked right outside boat but not operating. Only choice a van packed with fellow passengers to horseshoe beach. We wore our masks. Wife Covid-19’s test positive once home. Fully vaccinated and boosted. Cancer survivor missing lymph nodes. On pax Covid-19’s drugs for treatment at home! Just a heads up! especially for immune system compromised. 2,400 passengers multiple times $40 each Bermuda got $96,000.00 dollars from one ship. Brilliant business!Covered in Portuguese man of war stinging jellyfish. Many beaches closed. Nobody checked out our cards anywhere. Used to love Bermuda! Bermuda is a nightmare! The check in process a mess! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazey Posted June 1, 2022 #43 Share Posted June 1, 2022 JoeSantos: So saddened to read your comments about your recent visit to Bermuda. Cannot believe Bermuda would be so negligent regarding beaches, masks, ferries. It will cost them but at $96K a ship they can enjoy their windfall and figure why the cruising customers may stop coming. We sail on 6/19 and hope things get better. Do hope your wife's Covid is mild. Glad she did not get it on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody checked out our cards anywhere. Didn't the cruise line check your cards at check in? They would not need to check again. As for the Man of War they are always there in May. That is well known and I have posted about it to this forum. I think people book late April and May because that is when there are good deals. When you see really good deals there is often a reason. Because of the Man o War and the cool water temp May is not the time to go. I always wait until mid June. You did not have to take a van. You could have taken a taxi. We always take a taxi now and certainly would not have taken a van with 30 people. Sorry about your wifes positive test. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGinMTL Posted June 3, 2022 #45 Share Posted June 3, 2022 I agree that with the $40 they are taking from cruise ship passengers. they should be running the ferries when we are in town Just found the schedule I am on a b2b will be there 4 days in june ( only 1/4 has the ferry to St-George) Really upset about this .

FWIW the public ferry from Dockyard to St. George has not run on weekends in recent memory, if ever. It has nothing to do with the pandemic or the $40 fee .

Now Bermuda doesn't seem to care whether any residents want to use the ferry so they've reduced service to only days when a ship is in port, and as you say it's not even operating on some days when a ship is in port but will be departing...probably because not a lot of cruise ship passengers traveled to St. George on departure days.

kitkat343 Posted June 8, 2022 #49 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Am I correct in assuming the Blue route to hamilton runs every day? And the only problem is that the Orange route to St. George doesn't run every day? Here is what I think is this summer's ferry schedule: http://www.marineandports.bm/Documents/Ferry/Summer Ferry Schedule 2022.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
