I have to agree with lizardstew that you get the same (if not better) for a lot less. I don't ever remember hearing any stories of people missing the ship's departure, although I'm sure there are some out there. Running late to getting back to the ship is like the stress you feel when you are running late to the airport and you are affraid you will miss your flight. But in the end, you get there. My advice is book your own. The excursion companies have too much to lose with bad press if they mess up. Book your own, save money and probably get a better excursion. Good luck and have fun.
