Great Company
We’re booked several times with Cruise Guru have not had any problems with the service. Price Quoted was all we had to pay. All of the cruises met our expectations.

Easy On Line Booking
Booked first cruise On Line. Process was quite straight forward and simple. More options offered by Cruise Guru than direct booking with shipping company. Would use again for future bookings.

Wonderful service
It was very easy to change my bookings due to COVID. The people I spoke with were very calm and polite, despite having the added stress of upheaval due to the state of affairs from the pandemic.

We had a Cruise booked for Feb 2021; it got cancelled when they moved the no cruise to 31st May 2021. So we rescheduled our Cruise to January 2022. The Ladies were very helpful

Booked 3 cabins for my family for New Year Eve Cruise. Normally I would book face to face with my travel agent so I was a little apprehensive, but the ladies at cruise guru were so helpful both times I called with questions. I am so very happy, with the customer service. I received booking confirmation within minutes via email.

Excellent service
Once again I found the customer service very good. I had a lot of future cruise credits to use before they would expire and Maxine at Cruise Guru arranged to have them all applied to a Princess cruise next November.
In the past when rebooking a cruise to get a better price there was never any hassle.

Easy online booking process
The CruiseGuru website is the best one to use for booking your cruise. They make it so easy to get right through to the ‘book now’ button! Some others don’t let you choose your staterooms etc., and you have to wait for call backs. The Cruise Guru site takes 10 mins and it’s done! Communication back from them is also very prompt. We also love the low deposit options that allow us to have a cruise booking in place far off in the distance to look forward to. Now we just have to hope for no more (corona) cancellations.

Always helpful
We wanted advice about cruises incorporating specific locations. Several options given instantly with sailing dates and prices. They asked what sort of cabin we wanted and gave options. Everything worked out as planned. We wouldn't hesitate to use them in future. Communications are very good. Agents always pleasant and friendly. As they certainly get customers from other countries perhaps they could make their communication more generic instead of Aussie focused.

Thank you Katrina for your help
I was a very frequent cruiser, 4-5 times in the last 3 years.
Last year I convinced my sister & her husband to go on a Carnival cruise with me.
I booked through Cruise Guru website.
It was very easy, simple process.
But our happiness didn’t last long.
Firstly there was a Covid-19.
Then my husband got a very extensive stroke and got paralysed.
A few weeks later he got a massive heart attack, resulting in his sudden death.
I had no choice but to cancel our booking.
My sister didn’t want to go anymore without me so I had to cancel her booking as well since I organised and paid for her....Read more

Questions & Answers
Linaeasked
Why did some clients have the fees waived and others did not? Cruise Guru is a Qantas affiliate. Vote with your feet people and do not use companies who treat their clients like this. It is unfair.
2 answers
I presume it depends on who deals with your refund ... its disgusting charging $110 a booking.
Lodge a complaint with the ACCC and your state Consumer Protection Agency.

Hi Linae
Cancellation conditions vary subject to criteria including booked date, cancelled date, cruise line etc, which we understand does make it confusing.

Cruise Guru

Very disappointed that $330 in fees has been deducted for our cruise that’s was cancelled by Princess in April for a June sailing. Money returned to Cruise Guru from Princess in April and they had it in their account earning interest until September when I finally received my refund after following it up. If I had booked with Princess direct I would have received a full refund as they cancelled. It’s a shame Cruise Guru didn’t do what Flight Centre did for their clients i.e waiver fees after public backlash. Friends got $30,000 back for a Scenic Cruise with no penalties. I’m sure this company has received an enormous amount in fees if each passenger paid $110. I find it very excessive. Unfortunately I won’t be booking with Cruise Guru in the future.

Majority of agents tend to retain a portion of a 'Covid' cancelled booking. We booked with another agent for a cruise which included a flight to get to the port. Even though the agent had said that their fees would be waivered, we were still charged $100 admin fee each, plus $260 each for the fight we were supposed to take, which the agent said was deducted by the airline, if we had booked the flight ourselves (even though WE had to do our own research for the one we required) we would have received a full refund.
Apparently, even Flight Centre didn't fully refund everyone's booking, our son and daughter in law did not receive the full amount for their booking.
No flights involved with us. Cruise only so can’t see why they had to charges $330 per booking, understandable if it was $110 per cabin.

I cancelled my carnival cruise that was suppose to depart in July on the 5th of may called last week they have my money just waiting in the que for refunds I get that it would be a very busy time for them but seriously Im struggling at this point in time like many others that could just use there refunds to help them get through these times but the way this refund is going through cruise guru I'll be booking direct for any further cruises as someone else we were going with cancelled at the same time and got refunded within a few weeks hoping I will get my refund real soon :(

When I contacted them they said they were dealing with refunds for sailings due in may. When you contact them again they provide standard info - no update on progress of where they are up to. You wil just have to research options of where you can complain to... Bank, consumer affairs etc. Good luck
Rang again today completely different answer we are refunding when we can I'm going to try ring someone higher up tomorrow because I have no idea what's going on everyone is saying different things
Lol they don’t know what they are doing, when I called them today they said they were doing refunds for April sailings.
