time2cruise1 Posted March 3, 2009 #102 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Does anyone know exactly what does a "behind the scenes tour" tour? Is it just a walk about the ship with a guide? Does it include the galley? The tour they were selling was truly behind the scenes conducted by senior members of the staff and it included the galley and bridge, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pixiedustdawn Posted March 3, 2009 #103 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Thanks for the quick reply. I wasn't sure if it was a full bridge tour and full galley tour. Thanks again Dawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
time2cruise1 Posted March 3, 2009 #104 Share Posted March 3, 2009 I know people keep saying this but its not what I have been told or observed for that matter. It was part of the VIP service. its been on again off again and back on again and I was also told by the concierge that it was home office decision whether it would be offered on a cruise(not dependent on the HD or concierge's caprice to offer it to a passenger on board) as I said I was offered it three times and those three times, I was in steerage...believe me... Still looking for Cagney's :confused: ·VIP service, which includes: - Priority boarding - Welcome basket - Priority restaurant reservations - Priority tender tickets - Priority disembarkation - Invitation to the Captain’s cocktail party Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyflush Posted March 3, 2009 #105 Share Posted March 3, 2009 I belive it is a behind the scenes tour that they have been giving lately, at a $50 fee. We tried to sign up for this tour on our last cruise and it was fully booked....I'm glad we didn't pay the $50 pp then since we should get it for free next year. I'm not sure how many times I would want to repeat this tour on the same ship.....:confused: Well I have a long way to go for a free tour but if I hear good reviews on it and it sounds worth the $50 I would go for it. I doubt I would want to repeat the same tour of the same ship as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sid... it's part of the VIP service, not the Latitudes perks. If you were offered it (in steerage), as we have been....it was for other reasons. If you booked on a CAS rate, I believe VIP is attached. There may be M&G - related associations as well.... plus sometimes you're just really well-known ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
