deep1 Posted May 17, 2021 Report Share Posted May 17, 2021 Been a while since I was thinking along these lines but was wondering of RCL had a "Catalog" of excursions at the different ports? It might inspire me into doing even more booking of I knew what was out there to interest me in new destinations and expanded itinerary lists... The way it is I "guess" at a port (If I havn't been there before) then only get to see excursion options after I book... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they had an "open" one that would help SELECT an itinerary... I'm thinking about some of the southern or east Caribbean ports... At least the ones I have not fished out of... Then there's Alaska... I did it years ago but being the good "Daddy" and "Husband" I cut myself out of doing Halibut fishing which has long been on my bucket list... Can't remember which ports offered it... Baked Alaska 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't remember which ports offered it... I was able to download the "whole" file that the above links pointed to once ... but it was about 10 years ago and i dont recall how i did it. I was basically thinking along the same lines as you of "are there experiences i want to try and then figure out which cruise takes me there", IIRC i went through all that and then realized the catalog was out of date/didnt really work that way. If you find it though send a copy to Matt, i wouldnt mind trying the experiment again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twangster Posted May 17, 2021 Report Share Posted May 17, 2021 I imagine a number of excursion providers have been impacted by the pandemic. Some may not be around anymore. It may take some time to rebuild a complete shore excursion portfolio once cruising resumes. Be careful putting a lot of faith into a previous excursion catalog.

FlaBoy Posted May 19, 2021 Report Share Posted May 19, 2021 No, but I'd sure shop around. With the extensive down time ALL excursions have been at risk of TOTAL failure. The economies are dependent on tourism. So my guess is this, work closer than ever with the ships team. They'll shop & find the ones that're viable, book early on board!
