Cancellation & Refund

A Clear Policy for When Plans Have to Change

Cancellations must be submitted in writing. The cancellation fee is calculated from the date Namaste India Trip receives the written request and the number of days remaining before departure.

The effective cancellation date is the date the written request is received, not the date the traveller decides to cancel.

How the Refund Is Worked Out

The base cancellation percentage is not always the only deduction.

Starting Amount Payment received for the booking
Base Fee Applicable cancellation percentage
Provider Costs Airline, hotel, bank or supplier charges
Refund Eligible amount for services not provided
Third-Party Cancellation Charges
Banks, payment platforms, airlines, cruises, hotels, railways and other service providers may charge their own cancellation fees. These applicable costs are deducted from the refund.
Replacing One Traveller
Replacing one traveller with another is treated as a reservation cancellation and is subject to the applicable cancellation charges.
Unused Services After Tour Start
After the tour begins, no refund is provided for unused services caused by early departure, late arrival or missed tour days.
Promotional Booking Conditions
Special cancellation terms may apply to promotional offers. Review the conditions displayed on the relevant promotional page.
Early Departure

Unused services after leaving the tour early are not refundable.

Late Arrival

Missed services caused by arriving late are not refundable.

Missed Tour Days

Services missed after the tour begins are not refundable.
