With a 30% deposit of the total by bank transfer. Once the payment is credited and we confirm it, your spot is secured.
The remaining 70% can be paid by credit card in up to 3 interest-free installments, within the rate validity and subject to the promotion being available. You can also complete the total with partial bank transfers. The trip must be fully paid no later than 30 calendar days before departure.
The deposit confirms the booking but does not lock in the balance on its own. The quoted price holds if you complete payment within the validity stated in the quote. If you pay later, the balance is updated to the current rate and we tell you the new amount, with its calculation, before charging it. Amounts already paid are never changed.
We notify you of the balance and you have 5 business days to settle it, when the departure date allows. If it is not settled, the booking may be cancelled under the cancellation policy.
Let us know by email. Depending on how far in advance you cancel, a percentage of the total trip price is retained:
The date we receive your email sets the bracket. From 30 days before departure, accommodation, vehicles and guides are firmly booked for the group. If you paid by card, any refund due is made as a card reversal.
Moving to another 2027 departure of the same program has no penalty if you tell us more than 45 days ahead, subject to availability and any rate difference. After that, the cancellation scale applies.

In mountain and high-altitude areas, routes and times may be adjusted for weather or road conditions. If a change affects the essence of the trip, we offer alternatives or refunds. Hotels listed as “or similar” are only replaced by others of equivalent category, location and services.
