Return and Refunds

Payments

To secure your booking, a partial advance payment is required. This ensures that your reservation is confirmed. The remaining balance can be settled upon your arrival at the destination. The mode of payment will be communicated to you. The advance payment amount may vary depending on the nature of services booked. For peak seasons, full payment is required in advance. Corbett Destination Safaris & Tours reserves the right to modify or withdraw any offers at any time. In the event that your preferred accommodation is unavailable, we will arrange for suitable alternative lodging.

Mode of Payment

We will request payments through email correspondence. For international transactions, advance payments can be made via online bank transfer, net banking, or using Master/Visa debit or credit cards. Foreign nationals can make payments through currency notes, traveler’s cheques, or international cards such as Master/Visa/American Express. Please note that in the case of credit card payments, any applicable bank charges will be added to the total amount and must be paid accordingly.
