Can I book for someone else?

Yes. You can book for someone else by entering their details at checkout instead of your own.

Do I need to print my booking confirmation?

Usually no. A digital copy on your phone is accepted, but check your operator’s requirements in the booking confirmation.

Can I make a group booking?

Yes, you can make a group booking. Deal tickets are limited, so larger groups may need to combine discounted tickets with standard-price seats.

Can I pay a deposit or do I need to pay in full?

BookMe requires full payment at the time of booking. Deposits are not accepted.

What payment methods do you accept?

BookMe accepts major credit and debit cards for secure payments.

Are there any booking fees?

No. The price shown on BookMe is the final price you pay, with no hidden booking fees.

Is my payment secure?

Yes. All payments are processed through trusted providers and protected with SSL encryption.

How do I know if my booking is refundable?

Check your booking confirmation. Each operator sets their own refund and cancellation policy, which is listed in your confirmation details.

What happens if bad weather cancels my tour?

If bad weather causes a cancellation, operators usually offer either a free reschedule or a full refund.

Can I change the name on a booking?

Some operators allow name changes. You must contact the operator directly to confirm.

Can I change my travel date?

Yes, if the tour operator allows date changes and you provide enough notice.

How do I change my date of travel?

Contact the tour operator directly. Their details are in your booking confirmation, and they will confirm if a new date is possible.

How often are new deals added?

New deals are added daily in real time by operators, so availability and prices can change quickly.

Do prices change depending on the day or time?

Yes. Operators upload deals to fill spare seats during quieter times or for last-minute availability, so prices can vary.

What makes BookMe different from other booking sites?

BookMe is different because deals are uploaded directly by local operators, not resellers. This means genuine discounts straight from the source.

Do I need an account to book?

Yes. You need a free BookMe account to make and manage bookings, cancellations, and refunds.

Is BookMe Australia a trusted website?

Yes. BookMe is a trusted platform where official operators manage their own listings, prices, and availability.

Good experience

Comfortable ride for whale watching. On time as mentioned during booking, with useful commentary during the trip, very helpful online discounts that were available to us when we booked and that made it very cost effective for our family. The trip did not disappoint - we did get to see whales during our trip!! I recommend.

Great morning out

Nice boat and staff. Whales came right up to the boat to say Hi. Big stable boat was good as there was bit of swell. Good value for an experience like this.

We didn't see any whale, waste of money. Kids are disappointed. Don't believe on internet promotions.
