Hello,

we will be on Oasis in November on Eastern Itinerary and looking for suggestions for shore excursions. Anyone has any advice on particular once?

Also, did you book directly with Royal or any other travel agencies?

thank you!

Maho Beach in St. Maarten is always fun.

Welcome to Cruise Critic.

This is the forum for Royal Caribbean.

You should look at the ports of call boards:

Get a guidebook and read up on ALL there is! Many things don't need ANY excursion! Easy to do things on your own!

It depends what you want to do.

I've enjoyed Blue Lagoon Island and the Sea & See tour (part land and part boat or semi sub) in Nassau. These were booked through RCI.

I did an island tour in St Thomas with a 2 hour beach stop. Again, this was booked with RCI. The trip wasn't great though but that may be more down to personal preference.

In St Maarten I was due to do a Sea & See tour but the 'sea' part was cancelled due to bad weather. We got an extended island tour - such a beautiful island. This was booked with RCI. On subsequent trips there I have done my own thing, most recently Maho beach to watch the planes land. I just got a taxi from the port.

I personally book through RCI in the Caribbean for specific excursions that i want to do. I just feel more comfortable with that but others may feel differently.

Have a great cruise :)
