Refunds
- International reservations are non-refundable once purchased. No exceptions except cases of force majeure as described below that impact the transportation provider.
- If an act of force majeure (climate disaster, road closures from political demonstrations, government closure of borders) prevents the provider from servicing the route, we will first attempt to keep your reservation valid by postponing the date of travel.

Refunds due to force majeure events are only given if they block the transportation provider from fulfilling the scheduled service.

If you don’t see a policy in those places, then the tour policies follow the same provisions as the above mentioned policies for Private Shuttles and Airport Transfers.
Change Request Form
We will review your change request against the policy claim, and reply to you within 24 hours to let you know of the determination and next steps. Changes will be implemented immediately if approved. Refunds take between two and eight weeks for processing.
