canadarocks Posted January 19, 2023 #1 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Boarding the Rotterdam soon for, hopefully, a lovely B2B2B. Frankly I am stunned by the early departures for shore excursions at ports where we are docked until late. For example, a Curacao Beach Express at 7:30am when we are docked from 7am-11pm. It's the only option. That is just one of many 7:30am departures for tours. Will HAL add later options? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Mary229 Posted January 19, 2023 #2 Share Posted January 19, 2023 (edited) There seems to be a glitch , it was reported here earlier this week. Usually the very earliest excursions are 8 am with the vast majority after 8:30. I think the afternoon half day excursions have mainly disappeared since covid. if they can find operators and there is enough demand they will add a second section.

I'm sure they will add some but many. Cruising today is dynamic and tour operators are changing (as are ports). We did the beach express and then had lunch back on shop and walked in town after lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Crew News Posted January 19, 2023 #4 Share Posted January 19, 2023 The Rotterdam added a second Bamboo Club excursion time on my December to fulfill a large demand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iamthesea Posted January 19, 2023 #5 Share Posted January 19, 2023 I am glad to read that there may be a "glitch" on shore excursion times. I was booking our free excursions and had one in my cart from an earlier check of what was available. I thought it started at 9:30, but after I booked, it said 7:30. Was not thrilled, but it did not occur to me that it may have been a mistake. Thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
