IF WE WANT TO CHANGE OR CANCEL YOUR HOLIDAY

BROCHURE ACCURACY: Travelmarvel has endeavoured to ensure that the information given in this brochure about accommodation, itineraries etc., is correct to the best of its knowledge at the time of going to print.

Travelmarvel staff will endeavour to notify you of any significant changes prior to your holiday departure.BEFORE YOUR DEPARTURE: Travelmarvel endeavours to provide you with all the services confirmed at the time of your booking. However, we plan arrangements a long time in advance of your departure date using independent suppliers such as airline, hotels etc., over whom we have no direct control. On occasion, changes do have to be made and Travelmarvel reserves the right to cancel or amend holiday packages/excursions accordingly. All tours require a minimum number of bookings in order to be financially viable and to have a pleasant group atmosphere. In the event adequate numbers cannot be achieved, tours may be operated by Driver Guide only or operated in a smaller vehicle. It may also be necessary to cancel a scheduled departure and offer the nearest possible alternative date (or a refund of the monies paid for arrangements made by Travelmarvel).
