    Theresa

    Asked on June 22nd, 2022

    What is the situation with regard to single cabin occupancy? Booking this far ahead, can I avoid single supplement? Or if not, is there a discount for such advance booking?

    Accommodation
    Price / Availability
    Single supplement
    • Exodus Adventure TravelsOperatorWritten June 2022

      Unfortunately there is no way to avoid the single supplement, not even by booking this far in advance unless you went a few different routes.

      Quark on the UltraMarine ship does have single cabins that are better priced then if you got a cabin that fits two people and paid the single supplement

      Quark also has a program where you can share a cabin with another person of the same gender which definitely helps lower the cost:

      Solo travelers who prefer not to pay the single supplement can take advantage of our Request-Share program. If you're a solo traveler, we can match you with another solo traveler of the same gender who's indicated they're willing to share a cabin. Both guests save the single supplement. Should we be unable to find a cabin mate for a Request-Share traveler, the single supplement is waived. It's a risk-free way to save for adventurers who travel alone.

      Please note as well Quark has some some incredible discounts at the moment you can take advantage of including 20% off as well as an additional 10% off if you pay in full 1 month after booking for select cabin types.

    Asked on January 1st, 2022

    With Covid still infecting people, is there any change to the cancellation policy due to Covid safety? Is alcohol available on the ship (wine or beer). I am mobile but cannot walk long distances (+2-3 km at at time)

    Tour Details
    • Exodus Adventure TravelsOperatorWritten January 2022

      Quark Expeditions team sometimes changes their Terms and Conditions depending on the covid-19 situation worldwide. If they consider that it is not safe to travel on a particular departure date, they will offer travellers the alternative to change to another departure date.

      You can buy alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks at the bar onboard the ship.

      I can see that this particular Expedition trip is strenuous and in some stops there will be a lot of walking included. I can definitely reach out to Quark Expeditions team and ask them what level of physical activity exactly this trip involves.
