Creator's Key Takeaways
personally this is one of the few things I'm not a big fan of Carnival on the way they try and pressure you into doing shore excursions through them
carnival excursions are always always overcrowded they're packed you know the local tours they're never that busy
if you do book a carnival shore excursion in advance of the cruise you cannot cancel it once you get on board unless you have special circumstances
Creator's Tips & Advice
βResearch local tours on TripAdvisor and check reviews
βBook directly with local tour companies for less crowded experiences
βConfirm cancellation policies for Carnival excursions in advance
βConsider group bookings for private tours to save money
