Tour/Booking Policy
Click here for the German version
It is recommended to discuss the tours with us initially. If you are happy with it then you can book it through our recommended travel agency partner – in case we are using one (in a lot of countries, it is recommended to have a local agency partner). If we are not using one then we act as a privat organizer.
Having said that, Oliver is your dedicated host for the spiritual retreat(s) and tour guide(s) in connection with the dive centre and their crew.
Please contact us on all questions you might have. If it is the case that we are working in a Region with a local travel agency, then all questions in relation to accommodation for e.g. Holiday homes, B&B’s, Air B&B or transport arrangements should be directed towards the travel agency. Don’t worry, we will provide contact details in the general travel description of any upcoming retreat and Dive Tour.

If you would like to do something in a closed group or you wish a destination that is not on our schedule, then please feel free to contact us. We would be happy to discuss this with you and arrange something that fits into your and our schedule. In this kind of sense Oliver is very outgoing and likes to explore new things & adventures.
Please keep in mind the purpose of our journeys! We come together as a group who all share a passion for diving, who love the sea and their habitants and we all want to grow in our spiritual abundance. Therefore, we build a package not only for diving but also having a spiritual supporting program (e.g. meditation, group workshops, energy work, visiting high energy places). Together we shall explore the beauties of the sea, the surrounding landscape and having a lot of FUN!
Please be aware that you have to sign a liability form at arrival not only for the diving but also for the spiritual retreat part. Everyone who accepts the offer(s) is aware that this is a matter of spiritual and energetic therapy and service. Any liability in connection with this offer is rejected.
Please also keep in mind that we are not planning all-inclusive holiday packages. This is not suitable; we come together as a spiritual dive group and therefore we are planning to have a self-catering kitchen (depending on destination). Therefore, we will accommodate, eat and cook together in Guesthouses, private Villas and/or (Air) B&B’s. In the event of diving extremely remote Huts or Cabañas my come in question; Don’t fret – this is part of the adventure.

Please let us know beforehand when you decide to hire a car for yourself.
