By confirming your reservation, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to this Cancellation & Refund Policy. 

At Amplitude Tour & Travel, we understand that travel plans can change. Therefore, our Cancellation and Refund Policy explains how cancellations, booking changes, refunds, and non-refundable services are handled.

Before confirming your Ethiopia tour, we recommend reading this Cancellation and Refund Policy carefully. In addition, the specific conditions may depend on your tour package, hotel, airline, transportation provider, activity, and travel dates.

Our goal is to provide a clear and transparent Cancellation and Refund Policy so that travelers understand the applicable terms before making a booking.

Ethiopia Tour Cancellation and Refund Policy

Our Cancellation Policy applies to Ethiopia tours, travel packages, transportation arrangements, accommodation, activities, and other services booked through Amplitude Tour & Travel.

If you need to cancel your booking, please contact us as soon as possible. Early notification gives us more time to contact hotels, airlines, guides, transportation providers, and other suppliers.

However, cancellation charges may apply when a supplier has already received payment or when a service has non-refundable conditions.

Therefore, the refund amount will depend on the terms of your specific booking.

Cancellation and Refund Policy for Tour Bookings

When you cancel an Ethiopia tour, we will review the booking conditions and determine the applicable cancellation charges.

For example, your tour may include hotel reservations, transportation, entrance fees, permits, activities, or other services that require advance payment. Consequently, some amounts may not be refundable.

In addition, administrative or processing charges may apply where applicable.

The Cancellation Policy for your booking will therefore depend on the services included in your itinerary.

Cancellation and Refund Policy Before Travel

If you cancel your trip before the scheduled departure date, please notify Amplitude Tour & Travel in writing.

After receiving your cancellation request, we will review the booking and contact the relevant suppliers. We will then calculate any eligible refund based on the applicable Cancellation Policy.

Generally, earlier cancellations provide a better opportunity to recover payments. However, supplier-specific deadlines and non-refundable conditions may still apply.

Cancellation and Refund Policy for Last-Minute Cancellations

Last-minute cancellations may result in higher charges because suppliers may already have committed resources to your trip.

For this reason, the Cancellation Policy may allow deductions for hotel charges, transportation costs, guide fees, activity fees, airline penalties, or other supplier charges.

Nevertheless, we will make reasonable efforts to determine whether any refund or travel credit can be obtained.

Cancellation and Refund Policy for Non-Refundable Services

Some travel services may be non-refundable. These services can include:

  • Non-refundable hotel reservations
  • Non-refundable airline tickets
  • Special promotional rates
  • Transportation services
  • Entrance fees and permits
  • Special activities and excursions
  • Advance payments to local suppliers
  • Services purchased under special booking conditions

Therefore, a refund may not be available for these services.

Before making your final payment, we encourage you to ask about the Cancellation Refund Policy for any non-refundable service included in your itinerary.

Cancellation and Refund Policy for Hotel Bookings

Hotel reservations are subject to the cancellation conditions of the selected hotel and rate.

For example, some hotel rates allow free cancellation before a specific deadline. However, other rates require advance payment and may be completely non-refundable.

Therefore, the Cancellation and Refund Policy for your hotel booking will depend on the rate and conditions confirmed at the time of booking.

Cancellation and Refund Policy for Flights

Airline tickets are subject to the fare rules of the relevant airline.

As a result, airline cancellation fees, fare restrictions, taxes, and administrative charges may affect your refund.

If your booking includes flights, we will explain the applicable airline conditions as part of the Cancellation Policy before processing an eligible refund.

Cancellation and Refund Policy for Booking Changes

Sometimes, you may prefer to change your travel dates instead of cancelling your Ethiopia tour.

In that situation, contact Amplitude Tour & Travel as soon as possible. We will check availability and determine whether your booking can be changed.

However, date changes may result in additional charges from hotels, airlines, transportation providers, guides, or other suppliers.

Therefore, any applicable additional cost must be paid before the booking change is confirmed.

Cancellation and Refund for Tour Cancellations by Us

In some circumstances, Amplitude Tour & Travel may need to cancel or modify a tour.

If this happens, we will communicate with affected travelers and explain the available options. Depending on the circumstances, these options may include rescheduling, an alternative tour arrangement, travel credit, or an eligible refund.

However, the available option may depend on payments already made to third-party suppliers.

Our Cancellation and Refund Policy will be applied together with the conditions of the relevant suppliers.

Cancellation and Refund Policy for Unforeseen Events

Travel can sometimes be affected by circumstances outside the control of travelers or Amplitude Tour & Travel.

These circumstances may include severe weather, natural disasters, government restrictions, transportation disruptions, security situations, or other extraordinary events.

In such cases, the Cancellation and Refund Policy will be considered together with the policies of airlines, hotels, transportation providers, activity operators, and other suppliers.

Consequently, a full refund may not always be possible. Nevertheless, we will work with the relevant suppliers to identify reasonable alternatives whenever possible.
