It is suggested that you make yourself informed with the terms and conditions of the respective Travel Suppliers by going through to their websites or brochures. Please make sure that we have your latest contact information so that we can inform you of such changes prior your departure date and also while you are at your destination. Any personalized travel requests by you are entirely based on availability and (e.g. seat or room allocation) cannot be ensured.

PRICE, AVAILABILITY AND INCREASES

Prices and availability displayed or quoted can change (at the sole discretion of our Travel Suppliers and are due to space sell out/demand) at any time until entire payment has been collected and tickets have been delivered. If the total price of the travel services being offered is boosted and the cumulative increase, except any increase that results from an increment in retail sales tax or federal goods and services tax, is greater than 7 percent, then you have the full right to cancel the contract and ask for a full refund. Please remember that all airfares and tour operator costs can change anytime and that too without any notice if full payment for booking has not been received.
