Shore excurcions

A Day Full of Discovery Awaits You

With our shore excursions, your time in some of the world’s most beautiful ports becomes an exceptional experience.

What’s Included

Port charges are included in the cruise fare, as are shuttle buses in selected destinations.

Make the Most of Your Time Ashore

Once you arrive in port, you’ll want to make the most of your time on land. That’s why our specialists work closely with local partners to create an exciting excursion programme for every destination. All tours follow well-planned routes and begin as soon as you disembark.

You’re Spoilt for Choice

Shore excursions give you the opportunity to visit places you’ve always dreamed of or try something completely new. Our wide-ranging selection caters to all ages, interests and activity levels – from relaxed sightseeing tours and action-packed adventures to leisurely beach time. Excursions vary in length, allowing you to choose between short trips and full-day experiences.

Benefits of Shore Excursions

Entrance fees, transfers, guides and refreshments (where stated in the description) are included, offering excellent value for money. On many excursions, you’ll also benefit from priority access, allowing you to bypass long queues and spend more time at key attractions.

Plan Ahead

By booking your shore excursions with P&O Cruises before your cruise begins, you can secure a place on your preferred tours. Reservations can be made online via the “Cruise Personalizer” once your cruise booking is complete.

Relax and Enjoy the Experience

Our shore excursions allow you to explore each destination safely and comfortably. All providers are fully insured and adhere to strict safety standards. Should there be any delays during an excursion, the ship will wait for you – so there’s no need to watch the clock or worry about traffic. We ensure you get the most out of your time ashore and experience the very best each region has to offer. Even in the event of last-minute itinerary changes, suitable alternatives are always available.

If you prefer to explore independently, you’ll often find that the main sights are just a short walk from the port or easily accessible by public transport. Where this is not the case, a limited number of shuttle buses is available.
