We will arrange domestic flights within Indonesia though an Indonesian agent once International flights are reserved. You will be invoiced for these domestic flights and this payment must be received before the tickets can be purchased on your behalf.

Should you choose to arrange travel within Indonesia yourself and/or you arrange International travel on flights we do not recommend, we will not be able to assist you with flight cancellations, delays or problems such as denied boarding, delayed or missing luggage.

Please ask for help! We know the best routes, how to get the best fares and also itineraries and airlines to avoid! Often the lowest fare is not your best choice.

It is not uncommon for guests to need to cancel because of medical problems of themselves or a family member, or job or financial situation changes. Evaluate your personal risks and choose a policy that will reimburse you for your expenses in case of most unavoidable situations.

In addition to emergency evacuation and diving accident insurance, the DAN North America (Divers Alert Network) Preferred Membership includes coverage (lifetime maximum $10,000) for insured diver's losses incurred for trip cancellation before departure due to a sickness or injury that would impair the ability to dive. In the event a diver is sick or injured before his/her trip, this coverage would reimburse nearly all pre-paid trip expenses.

In Europe check DAN Europe Insurance Policies.

Diver's Comments:

"This was the only organized trip I have ever taken where I was able to dive the way I like to dive, no problems and no hassles. ... I'd like to join another of your expeditions in the near future."

"We found the trip to be exactly as advertised and it exceeded our expectations due primarily to the hard work of the excellent crew and to Deb's experience and attention for creating a photo rich environment. This was by far the best photography oriented dive trip that we've ever taken!"
