Non-binding booking

so-called option is only possible for a few days and in some cases may not be available. To confirm the reservation, it is necessary to provide personal data about all participants, sign a contract and pay an advance payment of 50% of the total amount. The surcharge is usually up to 35-30 days before departure, but it can be even earlier, depending on the conditions of the particular shipping company.
In exceptional cases, especially if it is a very special offer, the required 100% refund may already be charged upon booking confirmation.

Do I need travel insurance?

We strongly recommend the conclusion of comprehensive travel insurance. If you have year-round insurance, make sure that it applies to all the countries visited and that, in addition to traditional health insurance, it includes compensation for missed travel, loss of luggage and so on, but in particular cancellation insurance. There is a clear cancellation policy from the moment the contract is concluded and the more the departure date is, the more expensive the cancellation is. The price of the insurance depends on the destination, the length of the cruise and the total price of the cruise.
We have been using luxury cruises for several years European Travel Insurance Agency and we will be happy to offer you detailed information on the possibilities of comprehensive insurance or on supplementing your existing travel insurance.

Possibility of buying advantageous packages in advance: drinks, internet, spa, photos, optional trips.

Most shipping companies offer pre-purchase beverages, internet access, massages and optional excursions. This option is almost always priced against the same products purchased on board.
In the case of beverages, it is either the so-called All Inclusive packages with a price per day and person or for generic or thematic packages, e.g. Wine, Beer, Coffee, Soft Drinks or Mineral water ... in the form of coupons, which are then exchanged for designated drinks directly in restaurants or bars on board.
Optional excursions with some companies (MSC, Pullmantur) can also be pre-booked in the form of 3 excursions during the weekly cruise and with the 10-15% off full price. However, early booking of excursions may not only be financially advantageous - for some ports or certain traditionally high-demand trips, some excursions may be sold out before the cruise begins.
A typical example is the destination of St. Petersburg, where the price of organized excursion already includes an entry visa to the country. However, if you do not have an excursion and want to get off the boat, you need to apply for your visa separately in advance, and its processing is time and money demanding.
The price of Internet products may surprise you a little - it is considerably higher than ordinary land charges, which is due to the fact that the boat connection is mediated by satellites.

Evenings in premium restaurants or special surprises such as birthday cakes, romantic packages, bouquets and the like can be booked in advance.
