Observe: Programações em terra que abrangem vários dias normalmente incluem atividades extensas e prolongadas, enquanto os de durações mais curtas geralmente têm níveis de atividade mais moderados. No entanto, cada programa varia e os participantes devem estar preparados para enfrentar uma variedade de tipos de superfície, que podem incluir: subidas, paralelepípedos, areia, cascalho ou trilhas naturais. Também pode ser necessário subir degraus ou escadas às vezes. Os hóspedes em cadeira de rodas e com problemas de mobilidade são aconselhados a verificar com a companhia de cruzeiro com antecedência para saber se uma parte da programação dos passeios pode não ser considerada apropriada para a sua condição individual. Roupas apropriadas ao clima, chapéus, óculos de sol; e calçados planos e confortáveis geralmente são recomendados.
Todas as programações em terra têm sua capacidade controlada e estão sujeitas à disponibilidade. Os programas que não receberem um número mínimo necessário de inscrições de participantes estão sujeitos a cancelamento.

Uma vez que a compra for feita, os preços estarão garantidos e não estarão sujeitos a mudanças. As programações em terra devem ser compradas com no mínimo 90 dias de antecedência em relação à sua data de partida. Os cancelamentos feitos a 90 dias ou menos antes da data de partida estão sujeitos a 100% de multa por cancelamento.
