In order to secure any reservation, a completed booking form followed by the payment of the deposit is required. You and any other people you might be travelling with accept these terms and conditions by paying this deposit. Please bear in mind that prices and availability are not guaranteed until a deposit is settled up.
Once confirmed, the deposit will secure your booking and will be only refunded in the event of cancellation because of an insufficient number of clients booked by the due date or any other unforeseen events. We reserve the right to refuse to accept a booking at our own discretion.

The outstanding balance must be paid not later than six weeks before the starting date of the booked holiday. Your invoice will show when the balance is due in any case. Unless full reception of balance is confirmed by the date specified on your invoice, we reserve the right to cancel your booking without a refund at our own discretion. Any booking made with less than 6 weeks for departure will require full payment of the balance.
1.3 Payment method:
10% deposit payment can be made by credit card. To avoid extra fees, we strongly recommend fulfilling any outstanding payments through wire transfer (i.e transferwise) to the correspondent account that will be sent once the deposit has been paid out. Although, payment through our secure payment getaway can be arranged by applying up to a 5% surcharge to cover the correspondent fees.

All prices and payments are in Euros and are accurate at the date published in our brochures and on our website.
