1.     DEPOSIT: A guaranteed (non-refundable) deposit is due at the time of booking. The balance of the trip is due approximately 70 days prior to departure. You will be notified of the exact number of days or timeframe necessary for final payment when you book the trip. We strongly recommend purchasing Travel Cancellation and Interruption Insurance along with your air ticket.

In the event that you need to cancel your trip, the deposit and final payment are non-refundable. However, if we can fill your spot with another client, we will refund the full amount of your deposit and payment, minus a $150 cancellation charge. We will make reasonable efforts to fill your spot but cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so. We strongly recommend that you purchase travel insurance to protect yourself against unforeseen circumstances that may cause cancellation. 

2.     CURRENCY All tour prices are listed in U.S. dollars. We accept foreign currency at the current Bank Rate via credit card. We are not responsible for bank exchange rates on credit card transactions.

3.     PAYMENT POLICY: A guaranteed balance of payment is required approximately 70 days prior to departure. The exact number of days or timeframe necessary for final payment will be provided to you when you book the trip and pay the deposit. If the balance is not paid by the stipulated date, Bradley Photographic reserves the right to cancel the booking(s) without further notice and without refund of the deposit. Tour quotes do not include airfare to/from the trip starting point.

We will keep all customer deposits in a client trust account and may only use the funds once the trip has begun, or to make a deposit to an operator on behalf of the client.

4.     CANCELLATIONS: Cancellations received prior to the final payment date established upon booking will incur the loss of the non-refundable deposit as specified above. Cancellations received after the established final payment date will be levied a fee of 100% of the trip cost and will not receive any refund, as these funds have already been sent over to the destination of travel. The final payment date will be provided to you when you book the trip and pay the deposit. The final payment date is approximately 70 days prior to departure but may vary depending on the specifics of the trip.
As stated above, if you need to cancel your trip, the deposit and final payment are non-refundable. However, if we can fill your spot with another client, we will refund the full amount of your deposit and payment, minus a $150 cancellation charge. We will make reasonable efforts to fill your spot but cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so.

In the event of a tour being cancelled by an airline and/or government travel advisory, a traveler should submit the required documentation to their travel insurance company for trip cost refund, as per their travel insurance policy. There will be no refund for unused land arrangements after departure. All cancellations must be in writing.

5.     DELAYS In the event of an unexpected delay, passengers will be responsible for all associated costs and expenses. Should the tour be interrupted for any reason, repatriation costs and expenses relating to prepaid travel expenses will be at the sole cost of the client. There will be no refund for any portion of the tour already taken. We highly recommend that passengers obtain full travel insurance coverage.

6.     INSURANCE All passengers are STRONGLY URGED to take out adequate insurance coverage (i.e., medical, cancellation, interruption, baggage, etc.) to protect themselves against cancellation (whether due to illness or unforeseen events). In the event of a traveler becoming ill during a tour, all hospital and medical expenses are the traveler’s responsibility. In the event of a tour being cancelled by an airline and/or a government travel advisory, a traveler should submit the required documentation to their travel insurance company for trip cost refund, as per their travel insurance policy.
