Celebrity Cruises will introduce a range of nighttime shore excisions on Caribbean cruises from January 2016.
The new Celebrity shore excursions at night, called Evenings Around the World, will feature 14 experiences that begin after the sun goes down. The line has told CruiseOyster these special excursions perfectly complement their recently announced overnight stays on over 40 Caribbean sailings.
The experiences
The Evenings Around the World excursions will whisk guests away from the port to sample the Caribbean’s unique nightlife including evening jazz performances, an exclusive wine tasting at the Caribbean’s first winery in Willemstad, Curacao, or drifting along Aruba’s picturesque coastline to the sounds of live Caribbean music on a special sunset cruise.
Other new Celebrity shore excursions at night on offer are horse-drawn carriage tours along the winding cobblestone streets of Cartagena, Colombia, and bonfires and exclusive boat parties in Cozumel, Mexico.
What the boss told us
Lisa Lutoff-Perlo, President and CEO of Celebrity Cruises, told CruiseOyster “We have created ‘must-do’ experiences to give our guests a unique way to enjoy the vibrancy of the Caribbean at night. More time at the port means more time to explore, and we now offer more overnights, more excursions and more of the Caribbean than any other cruise line. We are taking travellers beyond the ordinary to capture firsthand what makes each island truly special.”
