Tendering times for a port

Does anyone know how long it takes in general for Carnival to tender to a port? We are due to dock at 10 am and are trying to book an excursion for Noon. This is not a Carnival sponsored excursion. The excursion departure point is fairly close to the dock. Is this doable time wise? I believe that Carnival sponsored excursions have priority in the tendering process. The port is Cabo San Lucas if that's important. Thanks!

If you did your due diligence and know the private tour is a reputable one with lots of positive reviews, they probably are well familiar with the schedule for getting passengers from the ship to the pier. Now, if you are prompt and not lolly gagging around the ship for an hour or two, they will be happily waiting for you if it is 10:15 or 10:30 before you arrive on the tender. ;p

I guess it is doable with your 2-hour leadtime.

Get tender tickets as soon as they are available. The whole group needs to be there.

Cabo is an hour ahead of LA. Depending on the Captain ship time might or might not be forwarded.

Noon would be very doable assuming there is no delay getting to the anchor position and beginning tender service.

Noon should not be a problem if the ship arrives on schedule.

Thanks everyone!
