Multi-port booking sites

These are not local firms. They sell tours in many ports. Read the guarantee carefully: some cover every tour, some only tagged products, and some do not publish a platform-wide promise.

  • GetYourGuide

    Not published platform-wide

    Tours and activities marketplace with many port-day listings. No platform-wide return-to-ship guarantee was found on official pages reviewed; any on-time claims appear to be listing-specific.

    What they publish
    For all excursion reservations that include transportation to and from the cruise port, we guarantee to get you back to your ship in time for your cruise ship’s departure. If for reasons beyond our control, for example road accidents etc. you are not able to reach your ship in time, we will reimburse your expenses to travel to the next port of call on your itinerary up to USD $500 per person and will assist in making travel arrangements.

    No typical price published.

    Partners page describes transporting clients to the next port at no extra cost; the legally specific cap of USD $500 per person is in the Terms of Service, which also voids the guarantee if the guest causes the delay or books a tour without included transport.

  • Tripadvisor-owned tours and activities marketplace. A 'Back to Ship Guarantee' applies only to products tagged Worry-Free Shore Excursions, not the whole catalogue.

    Worry-Free Shore Excursions (WFSE): Excursions are backed by a “Back to Ship Guarantee.” Are all excursions Worry-Free? No. Only certain products are designated as Worry-Free Shore Excursions (WFSE).

    No typical price published.
