Affiliate Disclosure
Some tour and travel links can earn MosquitoBay.org a commission. This page explains when that happens, how links are identified, and what remains independent.

We May Earn a Commission When You Book
MosquitoBay.org is an independent visitor guide. Some links to tours, activities, or travel services are affiliate links. If you follow one and complete a booking or purchase, the third-party partner may pay this site a commission.
How Affiliate Links Work
An affiliate link contains tracking information that lets a third-party partner know that a visitor arrived from MosquitoBay.org. If that visitor completes an eligible booking or purchase, the partner may pay a commission to the site.
The commission is paid by the partner under its affiliate agreement. MosquitoBay.org does not process the transaction and does not receive your complete payment-card details from the booking provider.
Partners and Link Labels
The site uses affiliate links for tours and travel services, including links to Viator. Other booking platforms, operators, or travel partners may be added or removed over time.
Where practical, commercial relationships are identified near the relevant recommendation or action with wording such as:
Affiliate links are intended to use appropriate sponsored-link attributes. A disclosure on this policy page does not replace disclosures placed near recommendations and booking links.
Editorial Independence
Affiliate compensation does not give a partner the right to approve, edit, or control the site’s visitor guidance. Tour comparisons and planning information are developed from research, publicly available information, product details, and editorial judgment.
- Payment does not guarantee a positive description.
- Commercial relationships do not remove the need to verify factual claims.
- Listings may be ordered by usefulness, visitor fit, evidence, availability, or editorial relevance.
- The site may remove or revise a recommendation when information changes.
Read more about research and corrections in the Editorial Policy.
Prices and Booking Decisions
MosquitoBay.org does not set tour prices. The final price, taxes, fees, currency conversion, availability, restrictions, and cancellation terms are controlled by the third-party provider.
- Prices shown on this site can become outdated.
- The provider’s checkout total controls the transaction.
- Promotions may differ by date, device, location, currency, or account status.
- You should compare the final total and policy before paying.
Third-Party Services
Tour marketplaces and operators are independent businesses. They are responsible for their listings and services, including:
- availability, schedules, meeting points, and tour operation
- payments, confirmations, cancellations, refunds, and customer support
- traveler restrictions, equipment, safety procedures, and accessibility
- their own privacy policies, terms, and cookie practices
Questions or disputes about a completed or attempted booking must be directed to the provider named on the booking page or confirmation.
How Commissions Support the Site
Affiliate revenue can help fund research, content updates, hosting, maintenance, accessibility improvements, planning tools, and the continued development of MosquitoBay.org.
Visitors are not required to use affiliate links. You may visit a provider directly or use another booking channel.
Our Disclosure Standard
The site aims to make material commercial relationships easy to notice and understand before a visitor acts on a recommendation. Disclosures should be placed near relevant tour or booking content, use readable language, and remain visible on mobile devices.
This approach reflects the U.S. Federal Trade Commission’s guidance that material connections should be disclosed clearly and conspicuously. You can review the FTC endorsement guidance.
Changes to This Disclosure
This disclosure may be updated when affiliate relationships, site practices, or legal requirements change. The revised date at the top of the page shows the latest published version.
