See cancellation conditions for groups from 12 passengers.
If the cancellation occurs for reasons of force majeure before the start of the tour, management costs are billed exclusively, and the expenses caused by services that cannot be cancelled well in advance.
If the cancellation occurs due to an abandonment en route for reasons of force majeure once it has already begun, in case of reimbursement, this will be made through credit towards the realization of a subsequent trip, for the amount of the proportional part of what was paid / time not travelled. The management costs and the expenses incurred will be invoiced in all cases. For the purpose of calculating this amount, only the services provided by Our International DMC (not including the airfare, with the exception of those tours that include it) will be considered, and the refund will be made for the amount invoiced by Our International DMC to the travel agencies (therefore subject to deductions of assigned commissions).
The amount in deposit will be deducted from the new invoice, remaining in deposit, or billing the difference depending on the case. The voucher delivered will be nominative, without admitting change of name, and the passenger may select any tour from our offer. The deadline for this reimbursement is 2 years from the beginning of the services.

Published prices in regular group coach tours, will be considered by person depending on the type of accommodation. In the cases when after the resignation or cancellation en route by any passenger of room/cabin occupancy is reduced (from double to single, from triple to double) the price difference of this if applicable will reverberate on the price to return to the customer that has cancelled.
The price quoted for the privatized trips of the catalogue and Trip Styles will be obtained once the total final number of passengers of the group is known, providing the price per person as a result of the sum of the corresponding proportional part of the common expenses of the group, the season and the type of accommodation, as well as the flights or high-speed train included on this trip. In the cases of renouncement or cancellation en route by any passenger, there will be no refund of the proportional part invoiced of the group's common expenses. The customer will have the right to a refund of the proportional part of the amount paid/time not enjoyed. The expenses caused by the change of occupation (double room to single/triple to double) will be passed on if applicable to the amount to be returned to the customer. The costs incurred will be billed in all cases.
