• No Refund: If the cancellation is made with less than 24 hours’ notice, or if the traveler does not show up (no-show), no refund will be applied.

3. Strict Policy

This policy is designed to protect the guide’s investment of time and resources and applies to tours that require advanced planning.

• 50% Refund: A 50% refund will be applied if the traveler cancels with at least 7 days’ notice before the tour’s start time.
• No Refund: If the cancellation is made with less than 7 days’ notice, or if the traveler does not show up (no-show), no refund will be applied.

4. Important Additional Clauses

• Force Majeure: In the event a tour is impossible to conduct due to a force majeure event (e.g., a national park closure due to adverse weather conditions, natural disasters, or government restrictions), the platform will mediate to agree upon a no-cost rescheduling or a full 100% refund. The platform and the guide commit to acting in good faith in these situations.
• Cancellation by the Guide: If a guide cancels a tour for any reason, the traveler will receive a full 100% refund of the tour cost, without exception.
• Cancellation Process: All cancellations must be managed through our website, in the ”Dashboard” section of your profile. You can also email us at: contact@chileadventureguides.com.

• Note: A “day’s notice” is understood as a full 24-hour period before the tour’s start time.
