2.3 You are responsible for ensuring that all information provided at the time of booking (names, number of participants, contact details, pickup location, special requirements) is accurate and complete.

2.4 Some excursions may have minimum age, health, or fitness requirements. It is your responsibility to check these before booking and to inform us of any relevant medical conditions, disabilities, or mobility issues in advance.

2.5 Golden Tours reserves the right to refuse a booking or the right to participate in a tour, at its sole discretion, where safety concerns exist (e.g., intoxication, non-compliance with safety instructions, unfit for the activity).

3. Prices and Payment

3.1 All prices displayed on the Website are in Euros (€) and include applicable Greek VAT unless stated otherwise.

3.2 Full or partial payment may be required at the time of booking to secure your reservation, with the balance (if any) payable before or on the day of the activity, as specified at checkout.

3.3 Payments are processed securely via our third-party booking and payment providers. Golden Tours does not store your full payment card details.

3.4 Prices are subject to change without notice; however, the price confirmed at the time of your booking will be honored.

4. Cancellations, Amendments, and Refunds

4.1 Cancellation by the customer:

  • Cancellations made more than 48 hours before the scheduled activity: up to 50% refund (maximum refundable amount), minus any non-refundable booking/processing fees.
  • Cancellations made within 24–48 hours of the scheduled activity: up to 25% refund.
  • Cancellations made less than 24 hours before, or no-shows: no refund.

The maximum amount refundable under any circumstances is 50% of the total price paid.

If the client has already taken part in the excursion, no refund will be issued, regardless of the circumstances.

4.2 Cancellation or amendment by Golden Tours: We reserve the right to cancel, reschedule, or modify an excursion due to adverse weather conditions, insufficient participant numbers, mechanical issues, port authority restrictions, or circumstances beyond our reasonable control (“Force Majeure”). In such cases, you will be offered an alternative date, a credit voucher, or a full refund, at your choice.

4.3 Weather-related and Port Authority decisions (e.g., gale-force wind warnings, closure of the port by the Corfu Port Authority) are outside our control, and no compensation beyond a refund or rescheduling will be provided.

4.4 Refunds, where applicable, will be processed within 14 business days to the original payment method.

4.5 The client has the right to inspect the vessel/facilities before departure and to raise any concerns or objections at that time. As a general rule, no refund will be issued for dissatisfaction with the condition of the boat or facilities. However, if the client raises an objection in writing before departure, the matter will be discussed with the captain, and it shall be at the captain’s sole discretion whether any refund amount is granted. Complaints raised after departure will not entitle the client to a refund or compensation.
