Callisto Posted July 3, 2023 Report Share Posted July 3, 2023 I am going on a cruise in February of 2024 and I have seen multiple times when the shore excursions were on sale like right now but they are always only 15% off is this the going amount now and are they no longer 25% off at the lowest or will I find this later if I wait to book one. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedNoodles Posted July 3, 2023 Report Share Posted July 3, 2023 Don't pay any attention to the percentage off. Just look at the price. If it's an excursion that you want to do, book it (they sell out frequently). Then just keep an eye on it - check your Cruise Planner frequently and don't only look during published "sales". You can then cancel and immediately rebook it at the lower price (or call, to be sure you get it). Some of the BEST deals that I've gotten on shore excursions were random price drops between published sales. cedricmr, bobroo and Ryan79 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callisto Posted July 3, 2023 Author Report Share Posted July 3, 2023 Oh ok that is a good idea thank you for your quick reply I will do this. This is our first cruise in a number of years so I am quite rusty on this. Our first cruise was around 20 years ago.

Cactus527 Posted July 4, 2023 Report Share Posted July 4, 2023 @SpeedNoodles is so right - price over discount. I saw 35% off most excursions on Black Friday, but the price mattered more. Book what you want straight away! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes the percentage is higher off but the price went up the percentage is based off. Look at the final price. And look often as they change ALL the time. Also agree not to wait too long, the good ones go! SpeedNoodles 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
