1.3. Cancellation due to positive COVID-19 test result

If a client presents a positive result in a COVID-19 test within the established times according to the cancellation policies (and the service requires a negative result), the client will be charged according to our cancellation policies.

The client is not entitled to a refund in the following cases:

  • The client does not show up at the beginning of the tour (no show).
  • The client decides to discontinue the service, even if the tour has already begun.
  • In case of accidents, calamities, or unforeseen situations beyond Teyuna Tours' control that prevent the continuation of the service.

3. Modification Policy

Modifications to bookings are subject to availability and must be made at least 24 hours in advance.

If the modification is requested with less than 24 hours' notice, additional charges may apply according to the cancellation policy.

4. Refund Conditions

Full refunds: Will be processed when the service cannot be provided due to non-compliance by Teyuna Tours or its designated provider (except in force majeure situations).

Partial refunds: Will be applied in cases where the client has incurred non-refundable external charges or in case of modifications that result in a change to the original service (for example, itinerary changes due to external factors).

  • Meteorological phenomena (hurricanes, storms, etc.)
  • Public order disturbances (demonstrations, riots, etc.)
  • Unforeseen closures of roads, airports, or tourist destinations

In case of force majeure, Teyuna Tours reserves the right to reschedule the service or refund the total or partial amount, depending on the circumstances.
