Why not just book through the cruise line?

Choice and crowd size. Cruise-line excursions are convenient, but they’re often large-group experiences with limited variety.

And when you use my links, you still have me in your corner to help pick the right tour and answer questions along the way.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if my ship’s schedule changes?

Independent providers monitor ship schedules and most offer ship-based guarantees or refunds if your port is missed or times shift. Shore Excursions Group, for example, includes a Return-to-Ship Guarantee.

Are these tours safe and reliable?

Yes—my partners vet local operators and show verified reviews. Choose options with strong recent feedback and clear cancellation terms.

What’s the cancellation policy?

Many tours offer free cancellation up to a set time (often 24–48 hours). The exact window is shown on each activity page—book early and keep an eye on the cutoff.

Can you help with accessibility or mobility needs?

Absolutely. Tell me your requirements (walking distances, steps, terrain), and I’ll recommend accessible or private tours tailored for you.

Private vs. small-group—what’s best?

Small-group tours balance value and intimacy. Private tours maximize flexibility. I’ll help you choose what fits your style and budget best.

How do timing and meeting points work?

Tours are listed in local/ship time with clear meeting instructions (often outside port gates). I confirm buffer time so you’re never rushed.

Tip: Want tailored suggestions? Contact me with your ports and interests.
