Travel Health & Immigration
The traveler is fully responsible for all visa, passport, immigration, quarantine, customs, health, immunizations and other requirements of the countries visited or transited.
A valid passport must be carried by each person which is valid for another 6 months from the end date of their tour. Ancient Culture Tours is not responsible for the consequences to the traveler for failure to comply with these requirements.
Disclosures
If the traveler has physical or mental conditions that may pose a discomfort, danger or risk to the traveler, other travelers or third parties (passengers and/or crew), these conditions must be disclosed to Ancient Culture Tours at time of booking.
Client Cancellation
If for any reason a traveler cancels a tour after booking, the following cancellation charges will apply:
61 – 90 days prior to departure date, 15% cancellation charge
36 – 60 days prior to departure date, 35% cancellation charge
22 – 35 days prior to departure date, 50% cancellations charge
1 – 21 days prior to departure date, 100% cancellation charge
If a service provided by Ancient Culture Tours is cancelled by a client due to last-minute illness or flight cancellation, this is considered a “no-show” and no refund will be made. The same rule applies if a client decides to leave the holiday before its end. If a client cancels a trip prior to 90 days before the departure date, a $100 processing fee would apply. Trip Cancellation insurance is highly recommended.
