CruiseCompete,
the premier online cruise marketplace, has selected Viator, Inc.
as its exclusive partner to provide its users with access to shore
excursions in ports around the world. Through an integrated
connection with Viator’s dedicated shore excursion website,
CruiseCompete is able to provide its users with seamless access to a
vast selection of unique and popular excursions in ports worldwide –
at the best prices, guaranteed.
Through
the “Shore
Excursions”
link on the CruiseCompete homepage, cruise passengers can simply
select their cruise line and itinerary to discover the excursions
available to them in their ports of call. Viator’s dedicated shore
excursion offering, launched in the spring of 2012, was designed to
accommodate the complex nature of such bookings and only presents the
traveler with relevant tours and activities that fit within their
ship’s arrival and departure times in port, making booking quick
and easy. Cruise travelers can choose from thousands of itineraries
from all major cruise lines including Carnival Cruises, Celebrity
Cruises, Costa Cruises, Crystal Cruises, Disney Cruises, Holland
America, MSC Cruises, Norwegian Cruise Line, Princess Cruises, Regent
Seven Seas and Royal Caribbean.
“Our
goal is to connect cruise travelers with the best cruise to meet
their desires offered at the best price to meet their budget,” said
Bob Levinstein, CEO, CruiseCompete. “By providing access to
Viator’s shore excursions, including Worry Free Excursions that
guarantee an on-time arrival back at port, we are giving our users
the opportunity to save as much as 60 percent versus booking
excursions through the cruise lines, and, avoid over-crowded
activities while having unique experiences their shipmates won’t be
able to replicate.”
