- Mmelrowgo· June 17th, 2024BUYER BEWARE Before you book anything with Encounters Travel, be SURE to read all of the fine print. This is especially important regarding their cancellation policy and the deposit you will forfeit. I didn't find that we'd completely lost our deposit until I contact the company to process a cancellation. I thought I could cancel for a full refund up until a certain point, but apparently I was mistaken. I booked a 3-night late-September boat trip at the end of May, and mid-June we realized we couldn't take it. It's been less than 3 weeks since I booked the trip and it's over 3 MONTHS until the trip will take place, so you know they will have no issue filling our two spots. Even so, we are out $250 each for our trip. They are within their rights to not refund the deposit - I should have waded through the fine print to find this buried detail. But they also have the choice to refund the deposit given the circumstances. Don't make the same mistake I did. READ EVERYTHING BEFORE YOU BOOK. Better yet, consider not booking with Encounters Travel.Show moreEncounters Travel commented on this reviewDear Melissa G, We want to take the opportunity to respond since we don’t feel your review is entirely fair - a member of our Reservations team explained the booking conditions to you regarding cancellations by travellers for trips scheduled to depart....

Asked on June 11th, 2023Do you have any sailings geared more to older adults who do not want to be on a cruise with young people drinking?
- Encounters TravelOperator•Written June 2023
Our sailing trips in Turkey are open to passengers over 16, and while we can't guarantee a specific age demographic, we do not specifically market these as youth-oriented trips. 2024 pricing is expected to be available in the next couple of months.
