P&O Cruises revamps shore excursions - latest news from The Cruise Village at www.podeals.com
I have just received notice of some new exciting excursions from P&O Cruises. See the press release below.
P&O Cruises is offering holidaymakers the chance to drive a Ferrari for the day or race a private yacht if regular coach-based shore excursions no longer excite them.
P&O Cruises managing director Nigel Esdale said: “We are attracting more new cruise passengers than ever before and these holidaymakers are looking for something a little different to do on shore than a guided coach tour.
“We can now offer them experiences that simply would not be possible on any other type of holiday.”
Ferrari driving is available to cruisers in Italy, from the port of Livorno, while racing a private Beneteau 40 yacht can be done for those stopping off in Antigua.
Zip wiring trips through the rainforest are also available to cruisers in Jamaica, while in Grasse, near the port of Cannes, holidaymakers can create a personal fragrance with master perfumers.
Meanwhile, glaciers and ice-fields can be explored from Reykjavik.
Many of the new excursions are available now, with some offered from 2009.
