Legal Details

Lolei Travel offers their guests as much flexibility and travel comfort as possible. Due to industry contracts and seasonality of our sector we do however need to set payment and cancellation policies as a general guideline. In the case of change or cancellation, our aim is to negotiate the charges and fees down as much as possible to avoid high charges to our guests. We do trust that our guests arrive in the region fully insured and remain properly insured throughout their stay with us. Lolei Travel will provide any kind of assistance needed in case of emergencies. Services (and therefore its charges) arranged by Lolei Travel during such emergencies remain at the liability of the guest. Lolei Travel cannot be held responsible for any lost, damaged or stolen goods during the guest’s stay with us.

Child Policy
Children under the age of 2 years travel for free with Lolei Travel. Children between 2 and 12 years of age are generally granted a reduction of 70% of the total costs per person for land services, provided that the child is accompanied by at least two full-paying adults and stays in the same room, using the existing bedding. Extra bedding and/or meals are subject to charge depending on the facilities booked and their policy for children.

Flight tickets are charged as per airline regulations at 10% of total price of adult fare for children under the age of 2 and at full fare for children of 2 years old and above.

At the age of 12 years and above, Lolei Travel considers the child to use adult-like facilities and charges 100% as per local regulations.

Cancellation Policy

The percentages shown are the percentages over the total value of the booking.

*NOTE: Some hotels have adjusted GIT cancellation policies that do not apply to the above. In such case, the hotel’s policy will be mentioned clearly in the travel program before confirmation. Cancellations are only accepted in writing (by email or fax).

FIT and GIT
Any booking below or equal to the amount of 15 paying guests, or equivalent to 8 single, twin or double occupied rooms are considered an FIT booking.

Any booking equal or above the amount of 16 paying guests, or equivalent to 9 or more single, twin or double occupied rooms are considered an GIT booking.

For GIT bookings, other rates may apply depending on the choice of local suppliers. Lolei Travel will negotiate any GIT booking carefully with all suppliers to secure a competitive price.

Payment Policy
Upon confirmation of an FIT tour, a down payment of 25% is required. This is a non-refundable fee in case, for whatever reason may be, the tour arrangements require cancellation. Upon receiving the 25% down payment, the guest is required to settle the remaining balance of 75% of the total tour costs 30 days before arrival. In the case the arrival date is within 30 days of confirmation, full payment is required upon confirmation. Reimbursements of payments made between 30 days and no show are subject to Lolei Travel’s cancellation policy.

GIT bookings may be subject to discussion and its payment and cancellation policies may be negotiated between the client and the management of Lolei Travel, which will then be secured through a written contract.
