Do I have to pay a deposit?

A deposit will be required to secure your space. We follow the payment conditions of the operator regarding deposits. You will receive further information about the deposit due once your cabin is secured. The deposit is generally due between 3 to 10 days from booking.

What happens if I cancel my reservation?

Your trip is not confirmed until you’ve made your first payment so there is no fee if you cancel at this point.

We can secure your cabin for a fixed time, once we have it on hold you can make all your travel arrangements safe in the knowledge that we have secured the liveaboard trip on your behalf.

Please do not book flights until you receive an email from us confirming that your cruise and cabin is on hold. Once you have our confirmation you can make your travel arrangements and confirm your liveaboard reservation by making your payment to us.

If for some reason you need to cancel your trip once a payment has been made we will follow the cancellation terms and conditions of the liveaboard you booked. You may have a penalty depending on the date you cancel and the departure date of your liveaboard.
