1. Advance Payment Requirements
To secure your booking with Lanka Heritage Tours, an advance payment is required. The required percentage depends on the type of service you are booking:
- Transport-Only Services (Without Accommodation): An advance payment of 20% of the total agreed cost is required to confirm the booking.
- Complete Tour Packages (Including Hotel Bookings): If your tour package includes hotel accommodations booked by Lanka Heritage Tours, an advance payment of 50% of the total agreed cost is required.
2. Balance Payment
The remaining balance for your tour or transport service must be settled On-Arrival in Sri Lanka before the commencement of the tour.
3. Cancellation & Refund Policy
We understand that plans can change. Our cancellation and refund terms are based on the type of booking you have made:
- Transport-Only Bookings: If you cancel your booking at least 7 days prior to the scheduled arrival/start date, you are eligible for a 100% full refund of your advance payment. Cancellations made less than 7 days prior may not be eligible for a refund.
- Complete Tour Packages (With Hotels): For tours where accommodations are organized by us, the refund amount strictly depends on the cancellation policies of the respective hotels booked for your itinerary.
