TTT will use best efforts to issue you a refund with no additional fee, but TTT may have to charge a cancellation fee in certain cases, which will be deducted from your refund. Cancellation fees vary depending on the tour, circumstances of the cancellation, and costs incurred by TTT as a result of the cancellation. Some tours require the purchase of a ticket in advance, and this cost may be factored into the cancellation fee. TTT’s cancellation policy applies to cancellations due to travel delays and unforeseen circumstances, so TTT strongly recommends that you purchase travel insurance for your trip.

TTT will make reasonable efforts to accommodate special requests, but cannot guarantee that accommodations will be made. Not all historical sites are equipped for those with mobility issues. Travelers should know that handicap access is not required in certain countries. Additionally, tour guides cannot and will not be responsible for providing personal assistance. For these reasons, TTT strongly recommends that any traveler requiring special assistance or accommodation schedule a private tour and be accompanied by a companion or aid who is responsible for providing all necessary assistance.

13. Holidays and Closures
TTT conducts research and plans its tours to avoid cancellations due to holidays and closures. However, most museums in the countries we operate reserve the right to close immediately without prior notice, for any reason. TTT does not take responsibility for sudden closures at the direction of the government or tour site staff and management or interferences by labor strikes, protests, or other events outside the control of TTT. TTT will make best efforts to reschedule any affected tours, but this cannot be guaranteed.

25. Mandatory Arbitration, Waiver of Class Actions; Choice of Law
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.
25.1 Scope. This Section 25 is intended to be interpreted broadly and governs any and all disputes between TTT and Users, including but not limited to, claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of the relationship between us, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory; claims that arose before these Terms and claims that may arise after the termination of these Terms (“Claims”). The only disputes excluded from this broad prohibition are the litigation of certain intellectual property disputes as provided below.

25.2 Pre-Arbitration Procedure. We hope that we can resolve any disputes with you without resorting to arbitration. If you have an issue or a complaint, you agree to contact us at info@tailoredtransferstours.com before taking formal action in accordance with Paragraph 26.3. In your contact, please provide a brief, written description of the dispute and your contact information (including your username, if your dispute relates to an Account). TTT agrees to use reasonable efforts to address your issue or complaint.

25.3 Binding Arbitration. If, after engaging in good faith negotiations, we cannot reach an agreed-upon solution with you within sixty (60) days, then either party may initiate binding arbitration as the sole means to resolve Claims (except as provided below) subject to these Terms set forth below. You agree that any and all Claims shall be resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules. In the Dutch Caribbean (Aruba, Bonaire, Curaçao, St. Maarten, St. Eustatius and Saba) the legal basis for arbitration can be found in Section 1020 of the Code of Civil Procedure. Every arbitration that takes place in one of the jurisdictions of the Dutch Caribbean is subject to the English version of the UNCITRAL Model Law on International Commercial Arbitration, as adopted by the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law. The authority as mentioned in Section 6 of the Model Law (i.e. the court or other authority for certain functions of arbitration assistance and supervision) is the Court of First Instance in the relevant Dutch Caribbean jurisdiction. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have the exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this agreement to arbitrate and the Terms, including but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of this agreement or the Terms is unenforceable. All fees charged by Court of First Instance, or its successor, shall be paid in accordance with the fee schedule under the Consumer Arbitration Rules, as applicable. All fees charged by any other equivalent organization as mutually agreed by the parties shall be paid in accordance with the rules and procedures of the equivalent organization.

25.4 Class Action Waiver. You and TTT expressly waive the right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. YOU AND TTT AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provisions set forth above shall be deemed null and void in their entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes

25.5 Intellectual Property Exclusion. Notwithstanding the parties’ decision to resolve all disputes through arbitration, TTT may bring enforcement actions, validity determinations, requests for emergent relief, including temporary restraining orders or preliminary injunctions, or claims arising from or relating to theft, piracy, or unauthorized use of intellectual property in any country, state or federal court with jurisdiction or in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to protect its intellectual property rights in the Site.

25.6 Survival. This Mandatory Arbitration, Waiver of Class Actions section shall survive any termination of your use of the Site.

25.7 Choice of Law. These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Dutch Caribbean Jurisdiction, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. Any action or proceeding by TTT to enforce these Terms under Section 26 shall be brought to Court of First Instance in the Dutch Caribbean of a foreign arbitral award will be subject to the provisions of the Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards of New York, 1958. User irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts and waives the defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such action.

26. Modifications to Site and Services
TTT reserves the right at any time and from time to time to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Site or some or all of the content or services offered through the Site, including the Services, with or without notice. You agree that TTT shall not be liable to your or to any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuance of the Site or some or all of the services offered through it.

Verbal authorization of your credit card confirms your reservation. 

Cancellation Policy

Payment for the tour is a fundamental part of the tour’s income and contributes to the overall cost of equipment, running costs, staffing, administration, etc. As TailoredTransfersTour will have incurred the majority of its costs before the tour starts, we need to impose cancellation charges to cover these costs.

Deposits are non-refundable. If you cancel your booking, we will impose cancellation charges as follows:

30 days or more prior to departure – No charge - (100%  refund)
15-29 days before departure – 20% of tour cost*
7-14 days before departure – 35% of tour cost*
3-6 days before departure – 50% of tour cost*
48 hours or fewer before departure – 100% of tour cost*
* or deposit if greater.

Tailor-made tours may be subject to alternative cancellation terms, which will be communicated to applicable Clients at the time of booking.

All cancellations must be in writing and be made by the person who submitted the booking form. Please send an email to your contact at the Company, with a copy to info@tailoredtransferstours.com

Once the tour has started, no refund for any unused portion or part of the tour or services to be provided will be given. If you want to make any changes to the tour, or depart the tour early, such alteration or departure will be entirely at your own expense and liability. You will also need to communicate in writing to the tour operator your reason for leaving the tour.

Cancellation by the TailoredTransfersTour
We reserve the right to cancel the contract between us for any reason prior to your payment of the full price of the trip. In this case, we will refund in full any amount that you have already paid us. After you have paid in full, we will only cancel the contract if circumstances beyond our control make it unavoidable. Such circumstances include, but are not limited to, civil or political unrest, terrorism, natural disaster, or other force majeure circumstance. In the unlikely event that such circumstances arise, we will contact you immediately and offer you the choice of equivalent services or a full refund of all monies paid. No additional compensation will be paid over and above the total sum received from you.

Alteration of Itineraries
It is unlikely that TailoredTransfersTours will have to make changes to your tour. However, we may occasionally have to make changes either before or after you have booked. Most changes will be minor, and TailoredTransfersTours will advise you of them as soon as possible. The Company reserves the right to alter the itinerary after departure, without paying compensation, if it is in your interest to do so. Furthermore, TailoredTransfersTours will not pay compensation if it is forced to cancel or in any way change the tour due to force majeure, such as war, riots, civil strike, industrial dispute, terrorist activity, natural or nuclear disaster, fire, adverse weather conditions, or other material external circumstances beyond the Company’s control.

Travel Insurance
