Having a difficult time deciding on what excursions to book. Should I book before the cruise or wait till on board? Has anyone found that if you wait till on board that the excursions are fully booked. We are doing the Western Caribbean. Any suggested would be appreciated.

If is/are some that you definitely want to do, I would advise signing up for them now. Because space is limited, there are more people booking them before there vacation even begins. You can order them and have them in your room waiting for you when you arrive. Others feel like waiting to see what their mood is once on vacation, just a personal preference. But, definitely book the absolute favorites on your list to ensure you get them and the time slot you want.

Thanks for the tip. Boy oh boy, it's hard to make a decision, we want to do so many of them. Trying to experience the flavor of each island without feeling like we missed something.

Also, if you choose not to book through the cruise line, booking ahead of time is a must.
