Cruise Ship Early Tour Departure
Jacquey Moss wrote: How do you get off your cruise ship early to catch your private tours? The ships that we have been on permit the passengers signed up for ship sponsored excursions to get off the ship first. Do any of you have suggestions to get off in a timely manner when booking your own land tours. A lot of the cruise lines allow you to disembark early if you take your luggage with you. sue |

We just went down early and they let us go with the ships shore excursion tour group. Be nice and smile,, goes a long ways!! Cheryl |

In Russia they tried to say that no one without a visa or a ship's tour could get off, and it wasn't true. At the last minute they said everyone that had a visa and wasn't on a ship tour should get off right away, and we did even though we had a private tour and didn't have a visa. But generally if there aren't tenders, I just walk off as if I had the right to do so. Which I do. |

Rarely is this "lemming option" the best course of action. I don't think the cruise industry wants to be known for delaying passengers from reaching their external tours. That kind of negative press could chill some potential new cruise customers and cost them more profit than they could have made by herding passengers into their own tours. Gregory |

Sorry I misunderstood/read before.LOL If your ship docks, you will have no problems getting off when you need to get off for your tour. Most of the private tour companys are used to dealing with cruise passengers, so you shouldn't have any problems. sue |

I'm sure you did, or else the Russian immigration authorities would not have let you off the ship. Ermalee got ashore and into the souvenir store all by herself in St. Petersburg. -- Nonny What does it mean when drool runs out of both sides of a drunken Congressman's mouth? The floor is level. |
