TERMS AND CONDITIONS – ARGENTINA & CHILE LUXURY FOOD & WINE TOUR with Rosa 2023

Due to factors associated with international travel it is unrealistic to expect prices to remain stable - particularly when they are dependent on foreign currency exchange rates. Prices for this tour are based on costs and exchange rates as at 28 February 2023. Should these costs or exchange rates alter or additional fuel surcharges, taxes and other charges or levies imposed by any government or its agencies, be added, a surcharge may be made on the price of your tour at the time of final payment.

Deposits and Payments

Due to the nature of this tour and all of the group arrangements that need to be pre-booked, a $2000 non refundable deposit will be required at the time of booking. Final payment is due on or before 13 July 2023.

Late Bookings

Payment in full is required at time of booking for reservations made on or after 13 July 2023. If a reservation cannot be confirmed, all funds will be refunded.
