At Palapa Tours, we understand that plans change—and sometimes unexpectedly. That’s why we’ve introduced our Free Cancellation with Trip Protection policy to give you the ultimate flexibility and peace of mind when booking your tropical escape.
For just 10% of your ticket price, Trip Protection allows you to cancel or reschedule your cruise for ANY reason up to 24 hours before your scheduled departure—or receive a FULL refund (excluding the Trip Protection fee and any applicable processing fees).
Whether it’s a sudden schedule conflict, unexpected weather, or a change of heart, Trip Protection keeps your plans worry-free.
If you choose not to add Trip Protection at the time of booking, you still have options:
Our tours run light rain or shine—after all, some of the best memories are made in unexpected weather! However, in rare cases of severe weather or government closures (such as temporary restrictions around sensitive waterway zones), Palapa Tours reserves the right to adjust itineraries without offering partial refunds. That said, our team always strives to deliver a memorable and seamless experience, no matter the conditions.
Trip Protection can be added to your booking online or over the phone. Whether you’re planning for tomorrow or a month away, the option to protect your trip is always available.
Life happens, and the last thing you need is to worry about losing your booking. For just a small fee, you’ll have the comfort of knowing you’re covered—no questions asked.
So when you're planning your next cruise aboard Lilo, Moana, or our Solar Palapa, choose Trip Protection and focus on what really matters—relaxation, laughter, and great memories on the water.
Book with confidence. Cruise with joy.
