GENERAL INFORMATION
FLIGHT & PROGRAM INFORMATION
The flights specified in the program are obtained from the relevant airline and cruise company. Our agency is not responsible for any changes that may occur in the times. For this reason, our agency reserves the right to make changes to the program due to any time changes.
The operating agency reserves the right to change the flight route if deemed necessary. For example, for a ship departing from Marseille, it may change the flight route announced as Nice/Lyon to Marseille or vice versa.
Documents required for visa applications are provided within 96 hours. You must request your visa confirmation letters from your agency at least 4 days before your application.
SHIP & RESTAURANT ARRANGEMENT
Guests are responsible for their own belongings during airport and port transfers, as well as round-trip transfers between the airport and the port. No agency official, guide, or driver has the right to take custody of luggage, nor can they be held responsible for it.
Two of the dinners you will have during the cruise are formal dinners; it is mandatory for every male passenger who wishes to dine there to have at least one suit, and for women to have at least one evening dress.
The cruise company and the captain reserve the right to make changes to the route and port times before or during the tour.
The contents specified in the program flow are for illustrative purposes. The operating agency reserves the right to change tour contents.
The restaurants and tables where our group will have dinner during the cruise are usually pre-determined and numbered according to names depending on the cruise company, while in some cruise companies, it will be open seating. On ships with pre-determined tables, everyone will sit at the pre-determined tables from the first day's dinner until the last evening's dinner, and guests who wish have the right to have their meals in other restaurants on the ship, depending on the arrangements of the authorized ship personnel.
PAYMENT & DEPOSIT ON BOARD
During check-in to the ship, every passenger without exception (only 1 person for couples) must present a credit card or deposit cash to the ship's reception while receiving cabin keys. As a result of this presentation, an average of 300 euros of provision will be withdrawn from each credit card. The reason for this is the expenses you will make on the ship during the cruise after checking in. You will be able to make your expenses on the ship with the magnetic cards that will be given to you by the ship's reception. Cash is not accepted anywhere on the ship except for the casino. You can check all your expenses from the televisions in your rooms.
The minimum number of participants for all programs is 20 people (10 cabins). The operating agency reserves the right to cancel the tour 1 month in advance if the majority is not reached. It may suggest an alternative program to the guest.
LUGGAGE & PORT RULES
At the beginning of our cruise, luggage tags in specific colors for all our group's suitcases will be delivered to you with your ship ticket. You must attach these tags to your suitcases at the cruise port.
Your suitcases may not arrive at your cabins until late in the evening on the first day of the ship's departure. This is a situation caused by density and crowds and is under the responsibility of the ship. For this reason, it is useful to put your essential needs in a small handbag and take them with you on the first day you board the ship.
The ship's departure times must be strictly adhered to. You must enter the ship at least 60 minutes before our ship's departure time at the ports. Otherwise, you may not be able to board the ship. Our agency will not be responsible for such a situation.
At the end of our cruise, you must pack your suitcases, attach the tags that will be left in your cabins the night before, and leave them in front of your cabin doors until 00:00. After our disembarkation procedures, our group will collect their suitcases from the station where their suitcases are located. We kindly request each of our guests to collect their own suitcase by touching and checking it.
