Cancellation Policy

A cancellation must be made in writing. Our cancellation policy applies when the cancellation of a trip or tour is due to no fault of our own. In other words, Pack & Pedal Europe, Inc. has made all the required and necessary arrangements and reservations for your trip.

Please note: Some of the ships/barges used on the Bike & Boat tours and the local tour operators that bring us our different bike tours have a cancellation policy that is separate from our cancellation policy. Therefore, if  you need to cancel a trip, both our cancellation policy and the ship/tour operator's  cancellation policy may apply. We will gladly inform you which ship and /or tours  this applies to.

Cancellation fees are per person as follows:

  • 91+ days before trip start: up to 20% of total price
  • 61 - 90 days before trip start: 35% of total price
  • 31 - 60 days before trip start: 40% of total price
  • 0 - 30 days before trip start: No refund

Please note: If there is failure to collect cancellation fees, we reserve the right to charge the credit card provided with your booking request.

Any cancellation request received after 4 pm on Friday will take effect the following Monday.

* Private or custom trips have additional conditions, such as when you have chartered a ship/barge. Ask for details.

Changes in Bookings 

To ensure a reservation on a tour departing in 65 days or less, full payment is required at time of booking.

Any change made in your reservation once submitted to us (this includes, but is not limited to, any change made in names, meals, dates, room selection, any additional night(s) needed or retracted and so on) is subject to a $50-$150 fee per change.

Above changes must be made 65 days prior to travel date, otherwise, other fees may apply.

Upon confirmation of your reservation, Pack & Pedal Europe, Inc. will email out a travel packet (only one per room/cabin/family) about 3-4 weeks prior to tour departure that includes information on local travel, hotel accommodations, travel insurance and so on. Obtaining travel and cancellation insurance is optional, but provides excellent coverage in case of tour cancellation, accidents and so forth. Additional trip packets can be provided for $15 extra per packet.

Pack & Pedal Europe, Inc. retains the right to cancel a tour or trip under any circumstances. Should a tour or trip be cancelled, then you will be informed of this decision within 30 days (and at the least, 15 days) prior to departure of your trip or tour. Information regarding any of our trips or tours is subject to change, and we reserve the right to make changes should it become necessary.

Pack & Pedal Europe, Inc. does not own or operate any of the suppliers of services or accommodations for your trip or tour. As a result, Pack & Pedal Europe, Inc. is not responsible for any negligent or willful act or failure to act of any such supplier or of any other third party over whom Pack & Pedal Europe, Inc. has no control. Pack & Pedal Europe, Inc.'s responsibility is strictly limited. To read more about this, please click on our Disclaimer page.
