LATE POLICY
Your gondolier will be ready at the scheduled time. If the guests arrive late the gondolier will do his best to give you as much of the allotted cruise time as possible, but will unfortunately need to be back at the dock before the start of the next cruise. The last thing that we at the Black Swan Gondola Company want to do is provide you with a shorter than normal cruise, but we have to be respectful of all our guests.
CANCELLATION POLICY
Once purchased, your trip is NON-refundable since your gondola is being guaranteed for the date and time that you choose. However, we do allow for reschedules at least 48 hours in advance. If you would like to reschedule your trip, please reach out to the Black Swan Gondola Company at 760.410.6820 and we would be happy to help you with your request. Rescheduling is subject to availability.
