MacTac Posted March 13, 2023 Report Share Posted March 13, 2023 Looking to book Italy & Greek Isles cruise. Is there a way to see what excursions are offered and their price before booking the cruise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted March 13, 2023 Report Share Posted March 13, 2023 Unfortunately, not. You could always look at third party excursions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Va4fam Posted March 13, 2023 Report Share Posted March 13, 2023 @MacTac....which ship and itinerary are you taking? Some of us might be able to share our experiences based on similar ports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wordell1 Posted March 14, 2023 Report Share Posted March 14, 2023 Look at Viator.com for ideas. Cruise excursions will always be a little more expensive. Excursions in general are more expensive in Europe vs the Caribbean. ChessE4 and SebagoSue 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChessE4 Posted March 14, 2023 Report Share Posted March 14, 2023 There are buckets of excursions like walking tours, transportation only tours, beach tours, and site specific tours. I find cheapest are around 50, all day at least 100, and small groups or lunch included tours even more. YouTube videos give some insight to augment Viator.

Jill Posted March 14, 2023 Report Share Posted March 14, 2023 What itineraries are you looking at? We just did the 12 night Holy Land/Greece/Turkey/Cyprus back in October. We only did one ship tour in Santorini just to get priority tender. The rest were small group/private. Heard so many complaints about the ship tours, especially in Israel.

RafaellaCG Posted March 14, 2023 Report Share Posted March 14, 2023 I wouldn't bother with the ship excursions. The Athens on your own excursion cost 70$ pp, my whole family took the hop on hop off bus for less than it would cost for one person and that came with wifi (so did the excursion, iirc) commentary and a free beer each. The excursions where you actually did stuff were even more expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linda R Posted March 14, 2023 Report Share Posted March 14, 2023 We did 2 weeks of Greece in Sept/Oct. Left out of Venice (Ravenna). We did a few days in Venice prior to cruise. We have been to Greece before but my sister and her husband, who were with us, had not. So, we did tours a lot. Prices ranged and reasonable I thought. Any particular tours or islands you were Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
