Payment Methods

Currently, we do not have an integrated payment gateway on the website, and while we are working on this you can make payments via the following methods. Unless specified otherwise, we usually take 50% of the package amount initially to cover a part of our booking costs and the rest 50% is to be paid 45 days before the trip commencement date.

  1. Online bank to bank transfer - Once you have selected your tour, we will share our bank account details with you and you can wire the funds to our account.
  2. PayPal - Please email us to get our PayPal ID
  3. Cash - The initial booking amount has to be paid online but the rest of the 50% can be paid in cash if required. We also accept gratuities in cash.
  4. For Indian customers, we accept direct transfers on Google Pay. Once you finalize your trip plans with us, we will share our Google Pay number for the 50% advance payment.

For transfers online, any additional charges arising out of the payment will have to be borne by you.

Cancellation & Refund Policy

For every tour, once you confirm, we engage with hotels, bike rental agencies, and other vendors to confirm their services on the tour dates. And in some cases, we make some advance payments to our vendors that are often nonrefundable. Hence, once you initiate a refund, we might hold back a little portion of the booking amount. Details are mentioned below.

  • Cancellation within 45 to 60 days before trip commencement - 20% booking amount will be retained by us.
  • Cancellation within 30 to 45 days of trip commencement date - 50% of the booking amount will be retained by us.
  • Cancellation within 30 days of the trip commencement date - 80% of the booking amount will be retained by us as we would have made considerable amounts of payments to our partners.
  • Cancellation during the tour - 100% amount gets forfeited since we would have already made payments to vendors.
  • Please note - Any payment gateway/bank charges will need to be borne by the customer and the amount will be deducted from the refund amount.
