Cruising in February and using public transportation to caves

[EllieinNJ]

I know it sounds crazy but we are going to Bermuda in February on NCL Getaway because the price was great and we had to use up some FCC.

 

The ship's excursion to the caves and aquarium is $169pp which is crazy.  Even with the $50 off plus 10% off for platinum plus another $50 OBC we have, it will still come out to $209.

 

I went on the caves website and they charge either $24pp for one cave or $35pp for both caves.  I heard that you can take the free NCL ferry (if it is running in February) to the buses which take you to the caves.  Can you buy just the transportation to the caves or must you buy a daily pass which I think is $19pp?  We just want to go to the caves and back.  Thanks.

You can buy transportation tokens, good for one bus or ferry ride for $ 4.50 each. 

If the NCL ferry is running each of you would need two tokens, one for the bus ride from St. George to the caves and one for the return bus ride to St. George. 

If the NCL ferry is not running you'll need 4 tokens each as you'll need to take the public ferry from Dockyard to Hamilton followed by a bus from Hamilton to the  caves, then the same for the return trip.  Since 4 tokens cost $18 you might consider spending $1 more per person and buy transportation passes as you would have the flexibility to also go somewhere else at no additional cost if time permits.
