Terms & Conditions

CONFIRMATION AND DEPOSIT POLICY FOR TOUR PACKAGES

Prices in quotes are not final and are subject to availability. We will send an invoice/confirmation form showing the confirmed services with the final price. Attempt to confirm any request will be made only upon receipt of a deposit. Some products may require higher deposit amounts. Deposit will be charged only when services are confirmed as per initial request. If services and prices are confirmed as requested and the client cancels there will be a cancellation fee per booking.

FINAL PAYMENT FOR TOUR PACKAGES

Generally, final payment is due 30 days prior to date of departure. Bookings within 45 days of departure are subject to immediate payment following confirmation. All payments for bookings within 30 days of departure must be paid by credit card only. Our office will advise when products require payment earlier. If a debit/ credit card is submitted by the client we are not responsible for any bank overdraft fees or any other charges that might be charged by your bank.

CHANGES AND CANCELLATIONS FOR TOUR PACKAGES

For a confirmed booking any change after confirmation has a fee of 2000. If the change results in a cancellation of previously confirmed services, then the following cancellation penalties will apply. If cancellation is received in writing by Gurpartap Travels at least 30 days prior to departure, a full refund will be made, minus a 2000 administrative charge plus the applicable supplier cancellation fees. For cancellations received within 30 days of departure a 50% cancellation penalty will be imposed. No refunds will be made 7 days prior to departure. Some packages (Carnival, New Year's Eve) are non-refundable. Different cancellation penalties may apply during holiday periods. Hotels, airlines or other suppliers may have stricter cancellation penalties than those described above. In those cases, the customer will pay the penalties the suppliers impose to us. We strongly recommend that you purchase trip cancellation insurance to cover such cancellation fees. Please consult our special protection plan. Group bookings have their own terms and conditions.

AIR TICKETS SPECIAL CONDITIONS

Some airfares used for your tour itinerary may have to be ticketed by a date before your final payment for your package is due. For those, we must receive payment before we issue tickets.

ACCOMMODATIONS

All hotel descriptions reflect the most updated information provided by the property at time of printing. Gurpartap Travels cannot be held responsible for the condition of accommodations. There may be charges applicable for some amenities listed in these descriptions as free, and availability may vary by season. In these instances, Gurpartap Travels is not responsible for any charges incurred by the traveller in utilizing such amenities and client agrees not to make Gurpartap Travels responsible for the availability and/or accessibility of any and all facilities and services at time of stay. Client will notify any dissatisfaction with rooms or hotel facilities with the hotel's management during the passenger's stay and will not make Gurpartap Travels responsible for the dissatisfaction. Hotels, at times, just like airlines, create overbooking conditions. In overbooking cases, compensation and arranging accommodations in another hotel is the responsibility of the hotel and passengers must negotiate all compensation with the hotel during the stay and not make Gurpartap Travels responsible for any financial compensation due to the overbooking situation.

CANCELLATION POLICY

Holiday or New Year's deposits are non-refundable. Some tickets are NON-REFUNDABLE after departure date and some fares are completely NON-REFUNDABLE. Special cancellation rules apply during Holiday Season. All cancellations must be in writing. Group reservations have their own Terms and Conditions, which will be sent to you at time of booking.

REFUNDS

Any claims for refunds must be made IN WRITING within 30 days of scheduled departure. All negotiable vouchers and/or air tickets must accompany the claim. No refunds will be made for features included in our itineraries that travellers chose not to take part in. No refunds will be made for missing transfers or sightseeing tours due to changes or delays in airline schedules. Gurpartap Travels will not refund any money for changes in travel arrangements made by the traveller after the departure date. Any service issue affecting the quality of the guest's hotel stay must be addressed directly with the hotel's management at the time the issue arises since refunds cannot be given for such inconveniences. We cannot control what properties charge at any time and therefore cannot guarantee our fares will always be lower. There are no refunds for perceived overcharges. No guarantees or warranties, express or implied, are made that the tour package will meet all of the traveler's expectations. Airlines and hotels occasionally create overbooked conditions. These entities will compensate passengers affected by over bookings. Our agency cannot be held responsible for these situations and will not refund moneys for such situations since they are beyond our control. Passengers need to present and resolve their compensation issues to the hotel or airline directly at the time the situation arises.
