Common Questions

FAQs about HAL-ms Westerdam Cruise Shore Excursions

Everything cruise passengers often ask before booking a HAL-ms Westerdam shore excursion in Japan.

How do I book a shared shore excursion?

Booking your excursion with Japan Shore Excursions is easy and worry-free. Simply select your preferred tour, then you can choose either pay directly via Onepay or fill inquiry form to contact with our travel expert. After that, you’ll receive a confirmation email with everything clearly outlined. If you’d prefer more personal assistance, our Travel Expert, Lara, is always available to guide you in selecting the right tour based on your interests and comfort level.

Pro tip: Tours fill up fast, so booking early means you won’t miss out!

Absolutely. Every shared excursion we offer for HAL Westerdam is thoughtfully crafted to be accessible and comfortable, especially for senior travelers. We choose routes with gentle walking, provide ample seated breaks, and use clean, air-conditioned vehicles.

If a tour includes more walking or uneven terrain, it will be clearly noted and we’re happy to suggest alternatives or make adjustments where possible.

Expect meaningful journeys into the heart of Japan’s culture and history. From ancient temples and feudal castles to tranquil gardens and world-class museums, our tours are guided by knowledgeable locals who share stories, not just facts. Whether you’re a history enthusiast or simply appreciate a well-paced day filled with beauty and insight, you’ll find every tour both stimulating and serene.

Your guide will be waiting for you just outside the cruise terminal with a clear welcome sign. We’ll provide detailed instructions and a map in your confirmation email to make things easy. Our team arrives early and wears a smile, you’ll be in caring, capable hands from the very first moment ashore.

Depends. We would deeply regret your decision to cancel your HAL Westerdam shore excursions; however we realize that there are many valid reasons that this can happen. In the event of cancellation we will refund any payment made to Japan Shore Excursions (less any cancellation fee that is applicable) within 14 days of our receipt of your written cancellation request.

The cancellation fee will be calculated as follows:

  • More than 40 days prior to trip departure: 10% of the deposit paid is non-refundable. This will be saved for your next trip with us. The rest of the deposit paid will be refunded (bank fee levied by your end)
  • 40 – 30 days prior to trip departure: 35% charged of the deposit paid
  • 29 – 15 days: 50% charged of the deposit paid
  • 14 – 10 day: 75% charged of total amount
  • Less than 10 days or No show: 100% charged of total amount

After the trip has commenced, we are unable to refund any amount for unused services due to your willingness, early departure, late arrival, or missed days on tours.

No need to worry. We’ve got it handled. Our team monitors HAL Westerdam’s real-time docking information and adjusts your tour departure accordingly. Plus, we always build in a buffer, so even if your ship docks slightly later than expected, you'll still enjoy a smooth, stress-free experience and get back to the ship on time, every time.

In case the HAL Westerdam cruise ship is unable to dock at ports or tender can’t discharge passengers, we will refund you Lunch (if any) and entrance fee. As for the guide and vehicle expenses, we will try our best to negotiate with our service providers to minimize the cancellation charge since we have arranged/sent them to the port to welcome you. We will advise you in specific details if this is case and get back to you with the refund amount at our soonest possible.

GUEST EXPERIENCES

Customer Reviews for HAL-ms Westerdam Excursions

"We toured Asia in Jan/Feb and did several tours with Japan Shore Excursions. They did not disappoint! Every tour was managed extremely well. We worked with Lara, who helped us plan and followed thru on all the details. This is our second year of doing tours with them, and we plan to do more next year."

James / Australia
Vietnam on Westerdam shore excursions

"We used Japan Shore Excursions to book a tour during a cruise stop in Japan. Fiona from Shore Excursions was incredibly responsive and put together a tour that met all of our needs. She even found another four people from the cruise to create a group of six that brought down the costs for all of us. "

Robert / USA
Japan on Westerdam shore excursions

"We recently toured Japan on a cruise but do not like to do excursions with busloads of people. Fiona was our amazing agent and planned individual guides and drivers for us in Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka. The guides just could not have been nicer, spoke good English, and the drivers were extremely competent while driving impeccable and comfortable vans."
