The Cruise Day

Off the ship, through the day, back before all aboard. With your bags aboard.

From $810 for the vehicle Turnaround days

A Seattle turnaround gives you six or seven usable hours between disembarkation and all-aboard, and that is the whole design problem. We build the day backwards from the time your cruise line set, subtract an hour for getting back aboard, and only then decide what fits.

Your luggage travels in the vehicle with you. That is the reason to take a van rather than a coach tour: no left-luggage office, no charge per bag, no detour back to the pier to collect anything.

What you see

  • Pickup kerbside at Pier 91 or Pier 66, at your disembarkation time
  • The city loop, or Snoqualmie Falls, or both if your hours support it
  • Bags in the vehicle all day, at no charge
  • Back at the gangway with an hour in hand, or dropped at Sea-Tac for your flight

Worth knowing before you book

  • We will not sell you Mount Rainier on a turnaround day. It needs eleven usable hours and you have six or seven.
  • Port Valet is free and lets most passengers check bags straight through to their flight from the ship. Ask your cruise line before you disembark — it changes what your day can be.
