3. Reservation and cancellation rules – When booking directly, our standard policy requires a 30% deposit of the total amount. €25 is non-refundable and covers administrative costs and costs of remarketing.

If the reservation is canceled less than 30 days before arrival, no refund will be issued. For last-minute bookings (up to 14 days before arrival), full payment is required at the time of booking and is non-refundable.

Trip Cancellation Insurance – Important Notice: Please note that if you or any member of your travel group are unable or unwilling to travel for any reason, whether due to illness or other circumstances, you will not be eligible for a refund.
