Tour leader decisions relating to safety, logistics and group conduct are final.

8. Bespoke Tours

Bespoke tours are tailor-made and confirmed only once the final itinerary and price are agreed in writing.

Due to supplier commitments, bespoke tours may be partially or fully non-refundable.

Cancellation charges may be higher and may reach up to 100% of the package price.

9. Optional Excursions

Optional excursions do not form part of your package holiday.

They are contracted directly with third-party providers.

Any assistance provided by Moyolo Travel or its representatives is for convenience only and does not create any contractual liability.

10. Third-Party Suppliers

Services included in your package are provided by independent suppliers.

We remain responsible for the proper performance of all services included in your package under the Regulations.

11. Prices & Payments

A non-refundable deposit is required to secure your booking.

The remaining balance must be paid by the due date stated in your booking confirmation.

If full payment is not received by the due date, we reserve the right to cancel your booking and retain the deposit.

We reserve the right to correct pricing errors. Where an error is identified, you will have the option to pay the correct price or receive a full refund.
