Booking

You must make an inquiry about a booking through our website booking form or through email at islandbirdwatchers@gmail.com. If your inquiry is by email, we will send you the official booking form. Once the inquiry is reviewed, we will contact you to let you know if it is accepted and we will send you our contract agreement. Once the contract agreement is signed by you, we will proceed to the next step making the required payments (see our reservation and cancellation policy page). Once the payment is received and processed, we will send you a receipt with your detailed itinerary. All required documents are to be submitted by the client by the required date.

At Island Birdwatchers we require a $700 reservation fee per person which will be discounted from your total balance. This deposit is required if you book your tour with 120 days or more before the starting date of the tour. If you make a booking less than 120 days from the start of the tour a full payment will be required. If you are making your deposit using a credit card it must be made with a Visa or MasterCard at the time of registration. If you prefer to make your deposit via check, money order, or bank transfer, your tour space will be held for 10 days to allow time for our office to receive your deposit and complete registration form. After the initial 10 days if no payments are received/ processed your spot will become available. Contact us directly if you have any questions or encounter any issues regarding your payment so we can make the necessary arrangements. All tour payments may be made by credit card (MasterCard or Visa), check, money order, or bank transfer (contact the Island Birdwatchers office for bank transfer information). These include deposits, final balances, full payments, special arrangements, etc.
