Welcome Cruise Traveler!

ExcursionsToday.com is dedicated to the savvy cruise traveler who would like to know what is available at cruise ports of call.  We are posting articles and reviews on shore excursions provided by the cruise ship, or for those willing to do their own thing. Our testimonials and stories hopefully help you to know what to expect. How often do you book a cruise and wonder what opportunities are available at a cruise port if you simply just walk off the ship?

This site is dedicated for cruisers like you. We offer articles for the do-it-yourself shore excursions or for your personal experiences using the ship’s shore excursions. Each article is arranged by Destination. Feel free to browse and leave comments as it only helps your fellow cruise travelers.  We look for articles for those doing self-explore excursions, or if doing guided tours and post them to share. Always remember, doing your own tours, you must always watch your time and have plenty of time to get back to the port, thru customs and on to the ship with plenty of time to spare.   Typically, 3 hours ahead of departure and always check with Ship Time before you disembark.  If you like less stress, you can use the information on this site to help choose a destination offered by the Ship’s Cruise Line Excursions which can take the stress out of a DIY tour because that group is sanctioned by the Cruise Line and always together as a group. Even then, though you still have to abide by departure times of the group. The key message is to enjoy yourself, but also be mindful of times, pick-up times, and be waiting for the pickup, not running to the pickup point.   There are plenty of YouTube videos out there of people not minding their time. The key message is be mindful of the time on any excursion, double check with crew on departure with your watch for ship time, arrive back to the ship a few hours early, and it will be enjoyable experience off the ship.  If you want, you can use these articles to explore what excursions are available by the Cruise Line to help you use the best of your time.  Enjoy!
