Infinity South American sailing
 

Am sailing on Celebrity Panama Canal/South America in Nov. There are so many cruise excursion options I am confused. Can anyone with experience tell me which were the best excursions for the Panama Canal, Fuerte Amador (Panama), Manta (Ecuador), Lima (Peru), Arica (Chile), and Valparaiso (Chile)
Many thanks!

Recently I signed up for this cruise, but I have been unable to find the excursions. Where did you get this information?

dangog & l3j,

It looks like we are all together on the Celebrity in November. As I wrote in an earlier post, I do not usually like the ships excursions - too much for what you get so I usually try to arrange for a group from these forums to get together and arrange for a van or a tour guide in each port.
I have done this on several sailings and it works very well.
If you would like to join me in exploring this option, email me at

and maybe we can work something out. We will probably be 2 couples so we need a few more to make it work.

My husband and I traveled in the Crown in 2005, we made our transference with www.enaturchile.com , the cost was less that portCompass, in the route we visited a vineyard, we made a trip for Valparaiso, it is an interesting city, with a harbour atmosphere and with many hills, we made one stop where, we saw the city from the heights, it was a beautiful landscape. Our driver and guides gave the opportunity us to visit the house of the Chilean Poet Pablo Neruda (museum) was something of our interest.
Vina del Mar; is clean, very tourist, modern and beautiful city. You cannot let visit this city. we had an pleasant lunch with food of the sea, this company could please all our requests

Dangog, I found the excursion detail on Celebrity's website, but supposedly the excursion page is under construction on and off. If you can't bring the excursion detail up under Panama Canal cruising, try South America. It takes some digging. If you still can't find it, let me know your email and I will send you the link.
