The post on 3/24 at 11:44 was your own, not Bethesda's. They did have a later post that quoted your 3/24 11:44 post, but no where in that post did they suggest avoiding a ship's excursion, as noted above Bethesda simply said that their private tour operator told them not to use the shuttle into town.

Please help I am kind of confused .Via ClaudioCogorano1 Its telling me to take the shuttle bus to the last stop-where is the last stop and which shuttle bus do I take? Being we are taking an excursion away from ship, will we be able to depart the ship early enough to catch the 9:30 bus-Our ship is the NCL Escape. Thank you for your assist. Expand I can’t speak for the vendor that will be subbed out from Viator, but ItalyTours and CBM tours operators ARE allowed into the cruise port area. Signs and iPads with names, guiding you to your van/bus. My instructions clearly said DO NOT take the ship’s shuttle. I just got off the Epic Monday. I believe all the stops had us arriving before the stated time by a little bit. 9:30 was our meeting time as well and we got off about 9:10. Good luck!

realnice46 Posted May 23 #30 Share Posted May 23 How late do shuttle buses run on return to ship? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
euro cruiser Posted May 23 #31 Share Posted May 23 The answer to that (how late the shuttle buses run) depends on your cruise line, only then can answer your question with any authority. It's also up to them whether or not you are charged for the shuttle bus, the high end lines tend not to while the mid range lines do charge.

The shuttle most passengers use, goes to the city centre and is free or is charged for, depending on the cruise line and sometimes even how one booked. Sorry do not know about NCL Does this free port shuttle to port exit still run? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
