Solstice in NZ - Overnight Port Tauranga - Jan 2017

[Danni@sea]

I'm hoping that a fellow Celebrity cruiser has experienced the overnight port of Tauranga in New Zealand and can answer a question for me....

 

We dock on a Sunday morning ar 9:45am and are due to depart on the Monday evening at 5pm. While that appears to be a long stay, it is also the port with the most "must see and must experience" options.

 

At what time does Celebrity "close the door" (so to speak) on the night where we are staying docked?

 

There are a few options for evening cultural experiences (including dinner), plus an hour or so drive back to port. I wouldn't want to find the family group locked out or prevented from being able to board the ship because it is too late! :eek:

 

Thanks in advance for your help :)

The door is shut when it is time to depart and your Daily tells you what time to be back for sail away... otherwise there is no curfew.

 

bon voyage

You actually can stay on land overnight. They do not care. Just be on board 30 minutes before sailing time.

Thanks Bo1953 and az_tchr - I was hoping that would be the case.....this will open up a few other shore excursion options for my travelling group :)
