Before you book

Frequently asked questions

Yes, all boat tours listed here offer free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure. Check the specific tour page for the exact policy.
Most boat tours meet directly at the marina or pier. Check the tour details for the exact meeting point and whether pickup is offered.
