Included in Tour Price:
Included in the price of the Plan you selected as your packgae is for every thing listed in your selected package page (See"Travel Packages") details. The customer is responsible for making sure that the monies for the minimum number of people required in the plan they chose, are paid for, within 10 days of making a comiittemtn for a vacation date, and to secure that date.

Reservations and Deposits: Occasionally, deposits payments are accepted as a condition to reserve a seat/spot for you, until the date specified on the deposit payment information. DEPOSITS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE AFTER 10 DAYS OF MAKING THEM. Deposits can only be applied towards the trip for which they were made. Formal confirmation for the tour will only be made upon receipt of full payment for the tour. Formal confirmation will be made by e-mail from DominicanTour@aol.com to our customer, or to any known member of the group.

The vacation dates are not secured until payment has been made in full, and in order for this agreement to be effective, and for Latin-Travels to officially consider it a legitimate package for a tour group. In a situation where extension of time to pay in full is granted to the customer, and it happens that the minimum required number of participants are not reached and paid for, 60 days before the tour date, the group tour will be cancelled, and monies refunded t the customer, based on our refund policy as narrated in the following section. The customer has the right at any time to choose a package with fewer participants, which will actually mean paying more per person, as detailed in our package plans. Any change in tour date/s after payment has been made, automatically voids the original tour arrangement, and the cancellation and refund policy below, will go into effect.

Cancellations & Refunds:
In order to secure excellent accommodation and services related to any group tour, we pay our vendors as soon as a tour is confirmed. In case of a tour cancellation, the payments we make to these third party vendors are not refundable to us. As a result, after a tour has been confirmed we will not be able to refund 100% of our customer payments. Our refund policy is therefore a follows:
All cancellations must be made in writing to and is effective when call or e-mail is received.

All cancellations must be made either in writing by e-mail to DominicanTour@aol.com or by calling 1-917-587-4966, or by mail to Latin-Travels, Inc. P.O. BOX 361711, DECATUR, GA 30036. The date we receive your cancellation notice is considered the effective date of the cancellation notice.

A minimum of 10% and maximum of 75% cancellation fee will be charged for all cancellations. Charges will be assessed as follows:
Deposits are 100% refundable, within 10 Days of making the deposit payment.
After 10 days of making deposit payments, deposits are non-refundable.
The following will apply after full payment has been made for reservations:
60 days or more before the tour date = 100% refund, less a service fee of $50.00 per person or 10% of the cost of such tour, whichever is greater.
59-38 days before the tour date = 85% refund of the total cost of such tour.
39-31 days before the tour date = 75% refund of the total cost of such tour.
30-25 days before the tour date = 65% refund of the total cost of such tour.

Insurance: We strongly recommend the purchase of personal accident, trip cancellation and luggage insurance, which although seldom used, is well worth the small expense. Latin-Travels, not being an insurance company, cannot accept the responsibility for accidents, or trip cancellations for even the most unfortunate or documented reasons, or the safe handling of your luggage. All three categories of insurance may be obtained from your travel agent or Latin-Travels.
.
Personally Escorted Tour Operation: Latin-Travels’ regularly scheduled escorted tours must normally be operated with at least twenty-five participants. Should Latin-Travels cancel a regularly scheduled tour because the number of participants is less than twenty-five, we will attempt to provide at least twenty-one days notice prior to departure. Individual passengers, joining scheduled tours on which airfare is not included, must be aware, said tours may be canceled 21 days prior to departure; and therefore must accept full responsibility for holding reservations and/or tickets on an airline beyond their outlined penalty clauses.

Booking Changes: Once formal reservations have been made any changes to the original booking record, is not guaranteed. So, please be careful before you provide your reservation information. All successful changes, will be assessed a $50.00 per person administrative charge, plus all applicable fees & charges by the Airline or Resorts to accommodate such change. Changes (not to date of tour or cost) in previously booked tours, will only be accepted up to one week prior to departure. Within one week of departure, if the change can be accommodated, there will be a $100.00 per person charge.

Membership: Latin-Travels reserves the right to remove a Tour member from any tour if that person's actions or condition disrupts or threatens to disrupt the tour; or if said passenger willingly disregards the regulations of participation as outlined in the General Information; or when the safety of the other passengers is threatened by actions or conditions of that passenger. In the event of such cancellation, Latin-Travels' liability shall be limited to a refund for any unused portion of the tour. Airfare will be fully refundable if Latin-Travels cannot fulfill its obligation, which is to initiate all the contractual obligations necessary to make the flight accessible to the client.

International Travel Requirements: In order to enter or leave The Dominican Republic, all U.S. citizens must present either a valid passport.
