tnspedteacher Posted September 27, 2008 #1 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Do I need to bring bike helmets? Also, I registered for excursions online and Banana Boats were not an option-does anyone know why?;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ducklite Posted September 27, 2008 #2 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Is it possible the bannana boats were already sold out? I know when we cruised they bannana boats sold out quickly and they couldn't accomodate everyone who wanted that "excursion." I'd keep checking back, and check back again once you get onboard, I understand that some slots for some things are held back until once people are on the ship. Can't help you on the bike helmets, sorry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CeleBrat Posted September 27, 2008 #3 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Hmmm....we used the bikes on our last DCL cruise (won them at the Castaway Club party!!!), and we did not use helmets. It was just my friend and I, so no kids were riding with us. I believe they had helmets---we just chose not to use them b/c it was really, really hot out. (Please, no safety lectures....)

mom x4,grandma x4 Posted September 28, 2008 #4 Share Posted September 28, 2008 Yes they have helmets. we saw them being given to everyone under 16 by law. we didnt wear them but all the kids had them on. a few adults too. No extra charge for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be Disneys rules not the Bahamian governemnt, I dont know. It just said under 16 was required to wear a helmet?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelbell77 Posted October 6, 2008 #7 Share Posted October 6, 2008 We just did this last week. Kids are required to wear them, adults are not, and they have bins of them available for use right next to the bikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the funniest thing I've read on here in a long time. Bahamians driving like madmen is a bit of an understatement don't you say? I don't know how to describe their driving. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinkerbell34 Posted October 7, 2008 #9 Share Posted October 7, 2008 I thought I had read some where that the banna boat rides were discontinued but perhaps I'm wrong. They were not offered as an excursion when I booked either and I was one of the midnight bookers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jenseib Posted October 8, 2008 #11 Share Posted October 8, 2008 I read too that the banana boats are no longer offered. Do they have small bikes with training wheels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
