Deposits
Once your dates and package
are confirmed, a
50% deposit is required
within 15 days
to secure your reservation.
Payment may be made by wire
transfer or check.
Please email proof of a wire
transfer or let us know when
your check has been mailed.
Please allow approximately
2 business days for postage
and an additional 4 days for
check clearance by our
Guatemalan bank.
If the deposit has not cleared
by the end of the 15-day period
and no alternative arrangement
has been agreed, the reservation
may be released.
Final Balance
The remaining
50% balance is due
6 weeks before the start
of your fishing trip.
We will send a reminder.
Please allow sufficient mailing
and processing time when
paying by check.
Weather Cancellations
Weather cancellations are rare
in Guatemala.
If your
Captain determines that
conditions are unsafe,
credit will be issued for
that fishing day.
When possible, the day may
be added to the current trip.
Otherwise, the value will
be credited toward a
future trip.
If a guest chooses not to
fish for personal comfort
or other reasons when the
Captain has not cancelled
the fishing day, no credit
will be issued.
Mechanical Cancellations
In the unlikely event of
a mechanical breakdown,
we will first attempt to
provide a suitable
replacement boat.
If no alternative is available,
a full fishing-day credit
will be issued toward a
future trip.
If that is not possible,
the affected fishing day
will be refunded.
Guest Cancellations
WITHIN 30 DAYS OF YOUR TRIP
No automatic refund is available.
We will attempt to resell
your dates.
If successful, you will receive
a refund of
50% of the package price,
less a
$150 cancellation fee
per person.
MORE THAN 30 DAYS BEFORE YOUR TRIP
If we successfully resell
the fishing days and rooms,
your booking is fully
refundable less the
$150 cancellation fee
per person.
If the dates cannot be resold,
you will receive a
50% refund,
less the applicable
cancellation fee.
Early Departure Flights
If you have an early
departure flight and prefer
to stay near the airport
after your final fishing day,
we can arrange your transfer
to a hotel in Guatemala City.
Please notify us in advance.
A small adjustment may be
made to your package quote.
