What happens if the weather turns on Lake Como

If the weather turns, the skipper decides whether the day goes ahead. A day he calls off moves to another day or hour at no cost. If that does not suit you, what you have paid comes back in full. That is the rule when you book direct with the operator I part-own, and it is the same for the sunset, the half day and the full day.

Who makes the call

The person who would take the boat out makes it. A poor forecast on your phone does not move the day, and the skipper’s call does. The skipper makes that call on the day. If rain alone would change your plans, ask me in the same message as the date.

What comes back

Booked direct, the operator has usually taken only the deposit before the day, so the deposit is what comes back. A booking platform takes the whole amount when you book, and its own terms decide the refund: read the ones on the booking you hold. How you pay sets out both.

If you want to move it yourself

That is the ordinary case, and it runs on the notice periods in how far ahead you need to book. Before the 24-hour mark, a booked date moves with notice. When the week looks unsettled, write early.
