Thanks for the info. I cant seem to contact them at all. No phone and no email. I tried the guest book thing but that does not work.

 

I guess its NO BOB for me.

 

I wonder why HAL does not offer this shore excursion??

They do not book indepentant people, they only book thru the ships. HAL will not use them because of their waiver, it states that B.O.B. wont be liable, the ships will.

 

We did this thru Princess, and it was a blast!

 

So if you go on another cruiseline, you must do B.O.B.

That sux. They have a spot on the web for on line booking but it says "coming soon" Perhaps they will take non ship people soon. Its hard to believe they dont even have a phone number or email.

 

I will keep trying to find a way as I dont sail until Dec 16 06

 

Thanks to all who have tried to help.

There is this Shore Excursion. It's not exactly a B.O.B., but I think it would be a good compromise if you can't get in touch with the BOB people.

I went back to the website, and found a number. It was at the end of the video. It was 715-0348. It did not list an area code, but I suppose that is easy enough to figure out. It is strange they don't have more info on their site.

I did it through Celebrity a few yrs ago. It was the best part of the vacation! I called the BOB folks and tried to book independently but they told me when the ships are in port, they only take bookings from the ship. I didn't tell them I was on a ship - just that I was visiting St. Thomas. They offered another day (at a much cheaper price), but obviously I couldn't take them up on their offer. It's too bad HAL doesn't offer it.
