Q. How far in advance should I book my excursion?

A: Because many tours have limited spaces, we encourage you to book as soon as possible. Many tours will sell out weeks and months in advance, especially during the peak times of the year.

Many return clients book up to a year in advance. By reserving their tour in advance, they guarantee their spaces and lock in “today’s pricing” for their future excursion.

A. If you need to make changes or cancel a tour, please contact our destination specialists via email or Live Help and let us know of any changes that you require. Within the terms of your reservation, we will be happy to make any necessary changes and respond promptly to all requests.

Q: Are the tours you offer the same as the ones offered by my cruise ship?

A. We do not sell the same tours your cruise ship offers. Though there are some similar tours on our site that are offered by your ship, you will find our quality options offer more value and flexibility and get you away from the masses on the cruise ship’s organized tours.

Q: Can I book your tours through my cruise line?

A: Our private and personalized tours cannot be booked through your cruise ship and can only be reserved in advance via our online reservations.

Q: Is there a risk of missing my ship by not booking through my cruise line?

A: Though your cruise line may advise that you assume that risk, the fact is, you will not miss your cruise ship by booking independently! Since 2002 we have never had a client miss a ship, and we never will.

We have measures in place to ensure that could never happen. We take great care to ensure all tours we secure for you will work safely within your port time. We will have you safely back to your ship long before it sails.

Should you miss a ship due to one of our tours, we will guarantee your meals, hotel, and transport to your next port of call. It is in your cruise line’s best interest to raise this fear. In reality, you have nothing at all to worry about. You will not miss your ship.

Q. How will I find your guides upon arrival to Barbados?

A. It is safe and simple to find your tour guides upon arrival in Barbados. Some tours will offer pick-up directly from or near the cruise ship port, while others require that you take a quick taxi to the stated meeting location.

Again, this process is SAFE AND SIMPLE. Your specific and detailed meeting instructions are included with the Confirmation Ticket that is emailed to you after you make a secure reservation. You must have this information with you upon arrival in Barbados.

A: If your cruise ship cannot make port for any reason, your deposit will be fully refunded. If your ship arrives late and you miss your tour. As a result, your deposit will be refunded. (Please note we can usually accommodate most all delays.

We kindly ask you to keep us posted so we can keep our guides advised of your delay) If you cannot make a tour departure due to a ship delay or missed port, simply email us upon your return home to advise us, and your deposit will be refunded immediately.

A: In the rare event that your ship’s itinerary changes during your cruise, we will, where possible, change your excursion to your new arrival date.
