The only reason we would cancel a tour would be for the safety and comfort of our guests due to high winds or rough seas. Rain does not guarantee cancellation. We would make this decision in the afternoon on the day before travel. You will be notified as soon as possible to reschedule or receive a refund in the event of operator cancellations within 24 hours of travel.
What about seasickness?
What about seasickness?
Viper is custom-designed to minimise sea sickness. But if you are prone to seasickness, it is a good idea to check with a chemist for the best preventative motion sickness medication (natural or medicated) for you. We do not sell sea sickness pills on board the boat. Please remember that tablets are a preventative, not a cure, so it’s best to take them before we depart and bring some with you to take during the day if needed.
