Yes definitely research as alot of ports you don't need to do excursions helps before you go ...cruise buddies helps on this sight if your not sure to get some ideas as long as you enjoy 😊

Always a good idea to research and plan excursions before you go. We usually book independent excursions. Also a good idea to have a back-up plan in case weather, a delay in arriving or other issues causes your original plan to be cancelled or change.
