How long before my departure date can I cancel my tour?

You can cancel your tour booking at any point, but it's important to be aware of the implications regarding cancellation fees, which are influenced by how close the cancellation is to your departure date.

The closer you are to the departure date, the higher the cancellation fees imposed by the tour operator. These fees tend to increase as the departure date approaches, to cover costs that may have already been incurred in preparation for the tour.
If the cancellation occurs on the day of departure, or if you fail to show up without any prior notice, this is usually considered a no-show. In such cases, you will likely forfeit 100% of the tour cost.
