Bit confused.Looking to book the Jeep Safari excursion which starts at 0900hrs (the same time NCL Sky docks).How would that work (& if not viable, why is the excursion being offered for my cruise)?.Any help or advice would be gratefully received.Cheers

3rd party excursions are not directly tied into your ship's schedule, no matter the platform ordered through. (Social media sites like here get a commission or finders fees but are not the booking agent.) The responsibility to confirm your ship is going to be in port for the entirety of the tour will be between you and the actual company providing the service. Ship's time does not always = local time

you'll want to clarify with the benefit, then.  it can take some time, my experience is at least 30 min, to have ship cleared to disembark passengers.  A company that does these excursions knows that too.  they should have info

NCLARRY - Cheers for the reply. it's not an NCL excursion, as there's bugger all left with them.  it's excursions offered by this app (I think run by Shore Excursions Group?) - hence my confusion / concern over timings.

If it’s being offered as a Norwegian excursions you will be fine.  Your excursion ticket will tell you where and what time to meet.
