raffi92 Posted July 16, 2008 #1 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I am a first time cruiser and came across a post somewhere on the forum that mentioned you can book shore excursions in your stateroom on your TV. Does Celebrity offer this service? If so, is it only available on certain ships? We are leaving for our Alaskan cruise next Friday and were a little slow with purchasing our excursions in advance. They are no longer available to book online. Thanks in advance, Jess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trunkman Posted July 16, 2008 #2 Share Posted July 16, 2008 yep, you'll be able to book in your stateroom or at the Shore Excursion desk. You might not get your first choice, but you'll find an excursion to enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raffi92 Posted July 16, 2008 Author #3 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Would you recommend booking it in your room or waiting in line to book it directly with the shore excursion desk? Or does it not matter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare tjunmin Posted July 16, 2008 #4 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I would recommend you book at the shore excursion desk as early as possible, in order to increase the likelihood of getting the tours you are interested in. The popular ones - if still available - sell out fast at the shore excursion desk. On the other hand, you can book private tours. If you do your research well, the tours will as good as or even better compared to the ones offered by the cruise line, at much lower cost. You can find a wealth of information and very helpful fellow cruisers on the Alaska board. Cheers, Thom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yahtic Posted July 16, 2008 #5 Share Posted July 16, 2008 If you book from your stateroom it will be faster than standing in line at shore excursion desk and far easier. Do it as soon as you get aboard and don't lose time by fooling with the desk, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pattyj 1204 Posted July 16, 2008 #6 Share Posted July 16, 2008 You are actually very lucky, as tours in Alaska are plentiful and almost every tour is worth it. You can even find some tours that you can sign up for right near the pier from private companies, but make sure you will be back before the ship sails. Have a wonderful time in Alaska. It is a beautiful cruise area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
