Distance to the private excursions at Mahogany

[hctraveler]

I've been told the distance from the ship to where you would board an excursion vehicle is a long ways at Mahogany Bay. That you have to go thru an area of venders to the outside then get a taxi to where the private excursions are located.  My question is are there vehicles to handle my scooter or will I have to drive over the hill to the bus?  and will my wife have to ride the taxi by herself?  And are the Carnival sponsored excursion pickup point different than the private ones?  I have a  booking with a private co. but thinking of changing to a Sage excursion.  

The other question I have is,  the excursion I have booked wanted cash when we board.  We can use a credit card, but the price when up like 20% due to some taxes they have to pay.  Is this correct?

You might also want to post this question on Carnival, as those passengers may be more likely to know what the ship excursion arrangements are like.

You posted this same question here back on Sept. 28.  You had one answer that might be of some help.  EM
