The tour office onboard will have good advice. Especially considering that they'll be able to suggest shoreside options that will be back in time for departure. Another advantage is that you can book your tours onboard. This saves precious daylight otherwise wasted by descending the gangway, muscling through the cacophony of the pier hawkers, clamoring to separate you from your cash, hoping to find somebody that can take you somewhere that's good. This way you have your tour vouchers and transfer vouchers in your hand (the cost of the tour is charged to your shipboard account), the minibus meets you at the pier, and you're whisked to your adventure. Another advantage is that the tour is fully paid for, no nickel and diming, except for the tip.

On the other hand, perhaps you prefer the thrill of an unstructured self guided tour. Find a taxi to hire for the day or half day and put yourself in the driver's hands.

We've done both routes, and each has it's advantages. It really depends how much effort I want to put into the adventure of the day.
