Cancellation policy for Adventures!
Caravan Tales is delighted to have you on board and is working hard to create an experience for you that will be as enjoyable and seamless as possible. The business downside is unpredictable world events, natural disasters, and sudden life changes that may affect your ability to attend once registered. The Cancellation Policy serves as a contract between Caravan Tales and the registrant. When you acknowledge the contract during registration, you are committing to your end of the contract and acknowledging the risk/unpredictability associated with travel.
Once your payment is processed, the full registration amount is non-refundable. To allow flexibility, you CAN transfer your slot to a family member or friend at any time.
Gender Balance/Group Size - There is no guarantee the trips will fill up/have a gender balance. The trip will have a married couple at a minimum (one male and one female) inshaAllah. The trips will continue even if one other person is registered. You are committing the non-refundable amount with the assumption of risk. If you are un-willing to take the risk, please contact admin@caravantales.org to get information on group demographic BEFORE registering, however understand that people may cancel, causing a gender imbalance.
COVID - Due to the lifting of mask mandates, participants are not required to wear a face mask on the journey. Participants may choose to if they are comfortable but please understand the risk of illness with travel. Prevention and safe care will be the responsibility of the participant and will not be the responsibility of Caravan Tales.
Please note: if the trip has to be cancelled for unpredictable world events/natural disasters, the decision on postponing or cancelling will be made as soon as possible. Your safety is the top priority.
On Ground - If you choose to skip activities stated in the itinerary, you will not be refunded the amount from your registration fee. Additionally, if there are unforeseen changes to the itinerary and cancellations from parties outside Caravan Tales, Caravan Tales will pivot to create an alternate and similar activity but will not be grounds for requesting a partial refund.
Accommodation Damages - As fellow Caravan-ers, please treat the accommodations with the utmost respect and leave it better than you found it! Any costs associated to damages to property will be forwarded to the responsible party!
