gill_boo Posted January 7, 2009 #1 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Hi all, Its wonderful that Carnival has finally posted their shore excursion prices for all to see, not just those booked. Now, here is the question. The prices we see online, are they going to be the same onboard or does Carnival jack the prices because you didn't prebook? I usually just do my own thing and haven't really looked at excursions with Carnival until now since its usually a lot cheaper to do it on your own, but I am looking at a possibility for my upcoming cruise. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wentworth Posted January 7, 2009 #3 Share Posted January 7, 2009 gill if you find a Carnival excursion you really want to do, I would book it on line before you cruise. We were really disappointed to find many of the excursions filled when we went down to book the after noon of embarking!!!. We usually try to book our own excursions and not use Carnival...... but some excursions can only be booked THRU the cruiseline. In that case we book on line before sailing. Happy cruising:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveOKC Posted January 7, 2009 #4 Share Posted January 7, 2009 As someone has already mentioned, you should book ASAP if there is something you REALLY want to do, especially if it has limited seating. For example, we did a helicopter landing on a glacier in AK and many people were shut out since they waited to book. If it is an excursion that is easily expanded, lets say a walking tour of a nearby site, it is unlikely to be filled up ahead of time, so you can book onboard.

Sparky58 Posted January 7, 2009 #5 Share Posted January 7, 2009 The prices are the same. Not always true - We booked an excursion on the Carnival website before our last cruise. Our friends waited and booked onboard - it was $10 p/p more than we paid online! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you booked months in advance the price can go up or down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
