When are shore excursions listed?

[sciencewonk]

We've booked a cruise in Japan and Korea for March 2025.  We've never booked this far ahead, so I'd like to know when the shore excursions for the cruise will be listed online or on the Navigator app.  I think they might book up quickly, so I'd like to get them scheduled early.

Anywhere from 15 or months out, to just a few months out.

 

You just need to keep monitoring.

Our cruise for March 2025 is showing the New Zealand excursions now.

Our cruise in the Med July 2025 has had excursions available for a couple of months now.

Hi, I am booked on Japan and Korea cruse October 2024 and we only have excursions showing for half the ports at the moment.

Ports that are very standard are often listed early. (Think Alaska, which is done year in and year out.) Other ports, like yours, might not be listed until closer in to the sailing date.

 

It's kind of a pain, but you need to keep an eye on it. I've found that my CruiseCritic roll calls have been a good source of when excursions get posted. There's usually an OCD type - sometimes me - who checks regularly and will post to the group.
