Royal Blue Marine Tourism is largely invisible to agents.
AI assistants can't open Royal Blue Marine Tourism's website, so they go by what other sites say about it.

## What to fix first
- **The site turns away every visitor that isn't a browser, AI agents included.** (+25 points) A plain fetch was refused (cloudflare_challenge). Only a real browser got the page. Every AI crawler and agent gets turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the page as the browser rendered it. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **Tickets only through getyourguide.** (+12 points) Every transaction an agent makes goes through the marketplace, which takes its commission. Add a direct way on your own site. Even a simple form will do. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+7 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No tickets and prices found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what does it cost and when?' from marketplaces instead. Add a page with tickets, times and prices as text, and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). Paste it as one block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom code box. Change anything that's wrong.

```html
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "Organization",
  "name": "Royal Blue Marine Tourism",
  "url": "http://www.royalbluecruise.com/",
  "telephone": "+96893221696",
  "address": "Marina Bandar Al Rowdha, 100, مسقط",
  "geo": {

}
</script>
```

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the main AI user agents.
- **Structured data found (Organization).** no address, phone or hours in it
- **GetYourGuide works with agents through its partners.** GetYourGuide's consumer terms page answered 403 on 2026-10-15; its Partner API wiki says to request an API key from a partner manager, with booking only at the booking tier, and a ChatGPT app is listed. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://github.com/getyourguide/partner-api-spec/wiki. An assistant that isn't a partner may not be able to finish there. A direct path on your own domain works for all of them.
