The
following terms and conditions apply if you are joining
a private journey with Classic Journeys.
Confirmation
Package

soon as we receive your reservation and deposit, we will
send you detailed information on what to bring, how to prepare
for your trip, travel directions, detailed itinerary, trip
cancellation insurance application, pre- and post-tour hotel
information and Classic Journeys' policies.
Deposit
Payment
Balance Payments The balance of the trip price is due 75 days prior to departure, payable by check or credit card. If you pay your deposit by credit card, we will assume that you would like your balance also paid by credit card and we will charge your card for the balance due 75 days prior to departure, unless you instruct us otherwise in writing. If the balance is not paid when due, Classic Journeys reserves the right to regard the reservation as canceled.
Cancellations & Refunds If you must cancel your reservation, we will refund your deposit, less the following fees:
| Days Prior to Trip Start Date | Trip Cancellation Fee Per Person |
| 76+ days | $500 |
| 46-75 days | 50% of trip price |
| 31-45 days | 75% of trip price |
| 0-30 days | 100% of trip price |
When you cancel a trip, we must ask you to notify us in writing. Exceptions to these policies cannot be made for any reason. If unforeseen circumstances require a change to the trip itinerary, Classic Journeys will make every effort to select alternative hotels of the same standard and to keep modifications to a minimum. Classic Journeys reserves the right to cancel a trip for any reason. In such an instance, we will refund all payments received, which will constitute full settlement.
Arrival and Departure Each trip begins and ends in a town accessible by plane, train, boat or bus. Meeting and ending locations are listed on each of the individual trip pages in the catalog, as well as in your pre-departure information. For some tours, it may be preferable to arrive at the starting point the night prior to the trip departure date. We will be happy to provide you with instructions on how to phone or fax the hotels yourself, or to make these reservations for you. If you elect to have Classic Journeys make these reservations for you, the hotels require that we provide them with a credit card number to hold these reservations or, in rare occasions, to send them a check in advance of arrival. We will advise you of specific hotel payment policies.
Accommodations Trip prices are based on two people per room. If you are traveling alone, you can choose to room alone, paying the single supplement. There are a limited number of single rooms available on all trips.
Insurance We include in all Deposit and Final Confirmation Packages an application form for short-term travel insurance that offers you options to cover baggage, accident/ life and/or trip cancellation. Trip cancellation insurance reimburses you for non-refundable air and land costs, if you have to cancel a trip due to personal or family illness or accident. The insurance that we recommend also provides coverage for all pre-existing conditions if you complete your insurance form and postmark it within seven calendar days of our receipt of your deposit. We highly recommend that you obtain this insurance.
We
suggest Travel Guard International, as it is America's leading
travel insurance company protecting more than 4 million
travelers each year. There are two ways to purchase your
insurance from Travel Guard. The fastest and easiest way
is to purchase your insurance on-line by clicking the Travel
Guard link after you have completed your reservation with
Classic Journeys. The link will take you directly to the
Travel Guard web site, where in minutes you can be insured
in full for your trip with us. Travel Guard will send you
an insurance certificate. If you prefer to wait for your
deposit confirmation package from us, we'll include with
it Travel Guard's insurance application. Please keep in
mind that Travel Guard makes additional benefits available
to you if you take out the insurance within 15 days* of
making your reservation with us.
