Shore Excursions, Specialty Dining and SPA Reservations

[pappy1022]

I completed my shore excursion selections last night and I have to give kudos to Regent for improving their website and making the process smooth, efficient and easy to use. When I tried this process last (2+ years ago) it was slow and cumbersome and ultimately I had to call in my selections to a human the following day. Is it still the policy of Regent to have a minimum of 2 hours between shore excursions in order to be able to choose multiple tours on the same day?  Specialty dining selections aren’t available for awhile but I wonder how difficult it is to reserve a table for 6 people and how to notify Regent of a birthday celebration? And lastly, how does one make SPA reservations and when can that be done? As always, a great big Thank You to all of you on these message boards for your comments and suggestions.

The policy used to be 75 minutes between excursions.  I haven't read of a change.  Not always correctly implemented on the web site, so you may have to call if it isn't letting you add one less than 75-90 minutes from another.

If you make your excursions and want to add a second in a port, the website will let you know if there is adequate time between or not.  It won't let you make a second excursion too close to the end of the first. The closest we have ever done is 90 minutes, so the 75 minutes break is likely still correct.

Thanks. I was able to select 1 other tour in 1 port.

I did our specialty reservations about a week ago.  I think this is new to the web site.  When you look at a certain date, it will also display any excursions for that day.  It will not let you make a reservation if the excursion ends too close to the dinner reservation you want to make.

To your question about Regent cruise spa reservations, Serene Spa will accept pre-bookings 60 to 7 days prior to your cruise, and also as soon as you get onboard.  The number I was given to call is 877-718-4244.
