A number of lines are only allowing passengers ashore on excursions booked through the cruise line, effectively banning independant passenger port trips for the time being. This has come as a surprise to many passengers, and an unwelcome additional cost to a lot of families going on their first holiday in almost 2 years. We have been looking at exactly what this cost is and have found that (one our upcoming cruises at least) there are some excursions available at reasonable prices. For example, booking one excursion at each of the 3 ports that we will be visiting on our December P&O cruise comes to just over £300 for our family of 3 (or roughly £34/£35 per person at each port). This is a lot more than we would normally spend ashore, but isn't too prohibitive (especially given the money saved on the deal that we got for this cruise). Its also worth highlighting that cruise lines often apply loyalty discount when booking excursions, and that many allow free cancellation up to a few days before sailing (just in case the rules change). let us know if you have had to book additional excursions, or if you have cancelled a cruise because you can't spend free time ashore.
