WAYS WE ARE KEEPING YOU SAFE WHILE CRUISING WITH US

Dear guests,

Your health and safety are our priority and proactive steps have been taken in terms of hygiene, but also our service to ensure you a safe stay on board.

We understand that travel is uncertain at the moment. Researching destinations that are safe, and the type of travel most suitable for you can be overwhelming, committed to providing you with a safe, healthy, and comfortable experience while you travel with us.

1. Cleaning procedures
Disinfecting surfaces is one key way to minimize the spread of viruses. We will increase the frequency of our regular cleaning program and all common areas will be cleaned at least two times per day with the cleaning agents that have been proved to eliminate viruses and bacteria. Handrails, doorknobs, remote controls, light switches, cabin keys, etc. will be disinfected multiple times daily, as well as common toilets on the ship. Special attention will be given to ship’s salon cleaning, where desks, chairs, and other surfaces will be cleaned after every use. Cabins will be cleaned daily, meaning all surfaces will be treated with effective sanitizers as mentioned above. Guests will be asked to leave their cabins during cleaning to avoid close contact and respect the social distancing policy. Extra blankets and pillows will be removed from the cabin wardrobes and will be provided on request. Guests can refuse the daily cleaning practice if they wish to.

2. Social distancing
Our ships are small cruise ships, meaning that our groups are not bigger than 40 people. This is very important to highlight because we work with small groups and we can accommodate all social distancing requirements. Furniture in public areas (salon) will be arranged to allow more space for distancing. More information will be available with your Cruise Manager onboard. All ships have very spacious sundecks allowing the sunbeds and chairs to be easily placed at a 1,5 m distance as recommended. Sun chairs will be marked with cabin numbers and guests will be kindly asked to use the chair marked with their cabin number only. Ships with jacuzzi will have a limited number of people using it at a time – maximum two people, if they are a couple or family members, as there is no evidence that a swimming pool or jacuzzi would put anyone in danger to get the COVID-19 virus, as long as social distancing and hygiene is observed.

3. Crew
All crew members will be informed and trained on the new procedures and will be advised to keep the highest hygiene standards and social distancing in guests’ interaction. They will be advised to wear masks and gloves and to use hand sanitizers regularly. Also, every day before starting their shift, they will need to measure their temperature and if they have any respiratory problems, they will be instructed to consult their doctor.

4. Helping our guests
Personal hygiene including frequent hand washing and not touching your eyes, nose, or mouth is essential to minimizing the spread of the COVID-19 and other viruses. These recommendations are very important and will be repeated to guests frequently. To ensure all our guests are safe, hand sanitizers will be available at the entrance of each ship as well as at the salon entrance. Guests will be kindly asked to use the sanitizer every time getting on/off the ship or when entering the salon. Soap, paper towels, and disinfecting wipes will be provided to guests in their cabins for their personal use.

5. Air condition on the ship
All ships have air conditioning that can be self-regulated. Salon and common hall areas are also air-conditioned. The AC system is maintained annually, and filters are cleaned and replaced as needed. Due to the coronavirus situation and the negative image that large AC systems can contribute to the development and spread of the virus through ventilation systems, the cruise line will be taking extra measures in cleaning and disinfecting AC units. If guests do not wish to use AC in their cabins, they can easily be turned off.

The salon area will be organized in a way that social distancing will be respected, and it will be suggested that salon doors and windows are kept open during breakfast and lunchtime to increase air circulation. Also, the suggestion is that guests will be reminded during their stay on the ship to keep in mind to open cabin windows multiple times daily for ventilation (where possible).

6. Ship service
Breakfast and lunch will be served, and no meals will be on a buffet. Depending on the size of the group and ship layout, meals will be served either in two sessions or simultaneously in the saloon and on the outside deck. Food will be prepared and served in gloves.

7. Further instructions
Swim stops will be regulated by the crew and Cruise Manager – to respect social distancing policy the number of people using the swim platform at once will be limited as well as people using the sun deck. The crew will keep track of the numbers to prevent crowding.

Each time before the ship arrives at the new destination/port, the Cruise Manager will organize the procedure of how the guests will leave the ship to go onshore. If two or more ships are moored next to each other, guests will be asked to respect the following procedures when embarking/disembarking the ship.

The Croatian institute of public health suggests that guests carry their luggage on their own to avoid excessive contact. However, if you need the help of a crew member, they will be glad to assist you and they will do it using hand gloves and later they will disinfect their hands. Lastly, we recommend that you carry only one piece of luggage per person, as well as one piece of hand luggage.

Guests are kindly asked to pay attention to these instructions and to prepare for the new regulations before coming on board. Guests are also asked to respect check-in and check-out time and not to make crowds when entering or leaving the ship. They should always keep in mind the social distancing policy of 1,5 m.

COVID-19 is an extremely contagious disease that can lead to severe illness and death. According to the World Health Organization and government health bodies, senior citizens and guests with underlying medical conditions are especially vulnerable. We ask that you please take personal responsibility for your well-being. This begins with packing personal protective equipment you may need. Please maintain physical distancing and hygiene before and during your travel arrangements and follow all health recommendations.

By traveling on small ships, you are acknowledging that an inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 exists in any area where people are present, and in any area where people have been.

By traveling on small ships, you voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to COVID-19 and agree not to hold the cruise line, its employees, agents (Jauntee), contractors, suppliers, or partners liable for any illness or injury.

The well-being of you and of our team will always be our primary concern.

All the above instructions will be posted on our website as well on all our travel documents.

Which category should I choose?

Those who seek a bit more privacy, luxury, and comfort should choose Deluxe Superior, Deluxe (all costs are included in price, except gratuities), as well as on Premium Superior or Premium category vessels. Traditional / Traditional Ensuite vessels are intended more for young or young at heart people, groups of friends or different interest groups like alpinists, bikers and similar who do not mind sharing a small space and bathrooms for 7 days.

Vessels in deluxe superior and deluxe category.

The number of persons on vessel varies from 20 to 40, depending on a size of the vessel.

Everywhere in Croatia, standard European sockets are used (Type F) - 2 pins, grounded, 16 A, 220 V. Socket is compatible with plug types C, E & F. Some of the new vessels also offer USB sockets.

Not as a rule, but sometimes there are. If you plan to snorkel – rather bring your own.

All the vessels are equipped with life-saving boats and life jackets which can be found under the beds in cabins or in marked wardrobe on the deck or in the salon. If you are non – swimmer, we kindly ask you to inform us and the captain earlier. During your stay on the vessel you need to pay attention on the following: steps are much tighter and sharper and it requires alert while coming down or going up; deck can be extremely slippery during rain or morning humidity, so it is necessary while you are walking on the vessel to hold the railing with one hand; it is strictly forbidden to climb on foremast, jumping off the deck during the cruise nor going far away from the vessel during swim pauses. During high season, harbors can be very crowded and often vessels are docked next to each other, so we kindly ask you to be very careful while you are going from one vessel to another. Crew assistance will be given to those needing and requesting it. Cruise is not recommended for clients in wheelchairs or with limited mobility.

Even though the tap water on board is of good quality, we would not recommend you drink it on board as it comes from tanks. 1 liter of water is provided for you every day; further bottles are available for sale on the vessel.

We believe that tips should reflect good service and your satisfaction with the guide/cruise manager, crew and overall tour. Crew gratuities are equally distributed among the crew. Tipping is voluntary and completely at the discretion of individual trip participants. Your own currency or Croatian Kuna is acceptable.
TIPPING SUGGESTIONS PER PERSON
• Cruise Manager: EUR 5 (Kn 40) per person per day
• Crew (all vessel services and assistance with luggage): EUR 10 (KN 80) per guest per day
• Local guide (offers in-depth information at specific locations; there may be many guides along a tour program): EUR 1-2 (10-15 KN per half day of sightseeing)
• Restaurants & Cafes: If not included, tip 10%-15% of the check, depending on the quality of service
Taxis: Tip up to 10% of the fare (We recommend you book taxis via your tour/cruise manager and renegotiate taxi fares to avoid unpleasant surprises at the end of the journey.

Even though Croatia joined the EU in July 2013, the main currency accepted is the Croatian Kuna. Where possible; exchange your money in a bank or retrieve money from an ATM. Drinks onboard and all extra services such as transfers, excursions and accommodation need to be paid in local currency KUNA. Premium, Premium Superior, Deluxe and Deluxe Superior vessels offer credit card payment possibilities.

Most major towns and islands in Croatia such as Opatija, Dubrovnik, Split etc. will have ATMs that are linked to international networks; however, smaller towns may not have ATM facilities available. Credit cards such as Visa and MasterCard are widely recognized and are accepted in most tourist areas; however, it is always a good idea to have a small amount of cash if you are travelling off the beaten path.

The average sea temperature during the July and August is 24,5°C and the temperature average during the July and August is 28°C. Be sure to take some clothes for possible cooler evenings (for example some sport fitting, windbreaker or similar) for spring and autumn departures.

Cabins offer enough places to sleep and the place for traveling bag. They're functional and mostly equipped with two beds, little wardrobe or open shelf. Traditional Ensuite, Premium and Premium Superior cabins have own bathrooms with shower and toilet. The cabin size depends on the category of the vessel. Deluxe Superior cabins are 15 to 20 m² and Deluxe Superior cabins are equipped with wardrobes, deposit box, hair dryer, toiletries, bathrobe, slippers etc., Deluxe cabins 12 to 17 m², Premium Superior cabins 8 to 14 m², Premium cabins 8 to 14 m², Traditional Ensuite cabins are approximately 5-8 m², Traditional cabins are 3,5-4 m².

Premium Superior and Premium vessels have either twin or double beds. Some cabins can accommodate 3 persons - double bed and an extra bed above or next the double bed. Because of the limited number of different beds, we are not in a possibility to confirm or guarantee a specific type of bed, but we try to allocate guests according to their wishes. So, if you demand a specific type of bed, we kindly ask you to note that to us while making a reservation, and we will try to fulfill your wishes.

On Deluxe and Premium / Premium Superior vessels, there are twin or double beds in cabins. Approximate size of the twin bed is 90/100 m x 190/200 cm, while the size of a double bed is 150/160 m x 190/200 m.

Cabins are situated on deck and on lower deck. ON DECK CABINS can be situated on the MAIN deck (deck on which you step on as you embark the vessel) and on UPPER deck (deck on top of the main deck). Cabins on lower deck are actually in the hull of the vessel. Advantage of cabins situated on deck is the direct exit to sea and more fresh air, while cabins on lower deck are sometimes quieter (only fellow passengers who booked lower deck cabins will pass by and not all passengers from your vessel as well as other vessels when docked) and comfortable because they are situated in a sea level which chills cabins naturally and hallways below deck are often air-conditioned which effect temperature in cabins too. Cabins on lower deck mostly have little portholes.

Lower deck cabins are in the hull of the vessel and they have a small porthole. According to the Croatian law and vessel rules, during a navigation portholes need to be closed to avoid water to come inside a cabin. When a vessel is docked in the port, portholes can be opened. On newer Premium Superior / Premium and Deluxe category vessels with steel hulls and air-conditioned cabins, portholes cannot be opened.

On the Deluxe Superior, Deluxe, Premium Superior and Premium vessels have daily cabin service. In all categories the cabins are cleaned and fresh bed linen is provided before your arrival.

All cabins are air conditioned (except sometimes during the night after midnight if there is limited access to electricity).

Dubrovnik port - The nearest Luggage storage is the Travel Corner (Obala Stjepana Radića 40). The rates are: 50 kuna per day and 180 kuna per week (per hour: first 2 hours 12 kuna, each following 5 kuna per hour per bag). Split port - Luggage storage is to be found across of the street of the port line, where vessels are docked. 20 m forward (on the right, when looking from the boats) from the post office ( on a half a way from the post office to the bus station ) = 15 KN per bag (per day). Opatija port - In case of excess luggage please ask our Katarina line representative upon arrival to give you additional info about possible storage.

We suggest to take lighter clothes, shorts, T – shirts, bathing suits, sandals and similar, and a few long arm shirts, long pants or wind sail for possible colder weather and breezy nights. Do not forget your hat, sunglasses, sun cream...

Jumping or diving from the vessel during navigation is strictly forbidden. For safety reasons climbing on the masts is also forbidden.
During rough weather, any movement should be done with care and as little as possible. The floors can often be wet and slippery. Passengers should take extra care crossing between the vessels when they are docked together in port. Do not hesitate to ask a crew member for assistance when crossing. Movement between the vessels is the individuals' responsibility.
Safety belts are placed under the seats in the dining area or below the bunks in the cabins (depending on the vessel).
As the vessels are explicitly acoustic all passengers are asked to behave accordingly. Special attention must be given to night peace onboard, which officially is at midnight. In National Parks, even earlier night peace is required and guests will be notified of this.

DISCLAIMER: Due to specific mooring conditions and requirements in some Croatian ports, ships are moored side by side, making it necessary for the clients to cross from one vessel to another with gaps in between vessels in order to get to the shore.
