Cancellations and Refunds

Cancellation of your booking must be in writing or by email to Mystical Journeys. When written notification has been received by Mystical Journeys, a fee of $250 USD will be levied to cover administration costs.

If you cancel 60 days or more before the trip starts, you will receive a 80% refund.

If you cancel between 30-59 days in advance, you will receive a 50% refund.

If you cancel between 15-29 days in advance, you will receive a 30% refund.

If you cancel less than 15 days in advance there will be no refund.

Please note: this cancellation policy also applies to trip cancellation (for you, individually or for the group as a whole) due to acts of God, or any unforeseen or unexpected events that are not within the control of the tour operators. For example, this means that if you have a death in the family one week before the trip which causes you to cancel the trip, you will not receive a refund. Similarly, if there is a terrorist event or earthquake, that makes it impossible or uncomfortable for the tour to take place, the same cancellation conditions and deadlines will apply.

Although we do not expect this type of event, we highly recommend that you get trip insurance, to cover this possibility. Most of the vendors on this trip will be paid in advance and these fees are not possible for the tour operators to recover once they are paid. If you elect not to get trip insurance you must assume the risk that, in such circumstances, you may lose all or part of your trip fee.

Airline tickets to and from India. Your trip fee does not include your international travel costs to and from India. If your trip is cancelled for any reason whatsoever, Mystical Journeys are not responsible for any loss of money due to non refundable tickets on air carriers to and from India.

Tour Cancellation/Interruption Coverage: As mentioned earlier, we highly recommend that you get trip insurance to cover possible additional costs (airline tickets, loss of luggage, trip delay, medical evacuation, etc.). Please note that travel insurance companies often require insurance be purchased within two weeks of your initial tour confirmation date to include coverage for pre-existing conditions.

 Baggage:

Guests are responsible for their own baggage. The baggage at the airport, during any air travel, in coaches, in any train journey, at immigration point’s etc., guests have to verify and be responsible for the same. The porterage or the tips for services rendered to carry guests baggage to the rooms is guest’s responsibility and have to be paid directly to the service provider. The “porter” or any helper arranged by the guests at any train stations, airports, at immigration points or any other place, is the sole responsibility of the guests and guests shall have to pay directly to them.

Loss of the passport on tour involves costs and consequences such as filing FIR, visiting Indian Embassy, getting new passport or landing certificate, expenses on the stay, food, transportation etc. all of which have to be borne and paid by the concerned guests only. Getting the landing certificate or the new passport is the sole responsibility of the guest. The Tour Manager is not responsible or liable or under any obligation for the loss of passport and the consequences thereof. Entire consequential expenses shall be met by the guests.
