Rahn You might call HAL's excursion desk and ask them. I copied this list directly from our shore excursion form. We went in Feb. 2007, so maybe they've added Scuba to the excursions since we were there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rahn HAL stopped offering it in December 2006 partly due to poor customer feedback about the excursion. I don' think they have started offering that excursion there again.

wrecks Posted May 28, 2008 #8 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Appreciate all your input, it really helps. Question...there are 6 of us renting the green cabana on 12-8 (Westerdam) and have paid for the 2 extra folks for a total of $339.00. Reading the reviews of the butler package we are considering upgrading to this. But, it seems it would be $470.00 for the 6 of us - a bit heavy I feel. Could it be a $100 a couple vs each? If it is the 'each' charge, is it worth it? Thanks, Rex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for it being worth it, we thought so, but just having the cabana is really what's nice. Either way, you'll love having the cabana and you'll love HMC. It's a beautiful island. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm actually booked on Carnival, so I called their excursion people and, well, they weren't much help. She said "we recently stopped offering that excursion, but we hope to have it back in time for your cruise" (yeah, right..) No biggie. We'll rent a cabana and get drunk that day:D Thanks again for the responses. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
