Sept 16 Family Medicine Review
We are very happy to offer our guests the opportunity of reserving selected shore excursions in advance.... and all at a discount over the higher onboard prices. This will ensure that you avoid the long reservation lines onboard the ship and provide you with a better chance at getting the tours you want before they sell out. Although similar tours may be available for sale on board, our tours are guaranteed to be less expensive and we will travel separately from other passengers. In addition to the savings of time and money, our group will be met by our designated representative in each port. The reservation process is very simple and quick! Reservations must be received 10 days prior to sailing.
