Late arrivals
Tours cannot be rescheduled or refunded if you arrive late.
All our tours start on time, and guides cannot delay the start of tours. As indicated in your voucher, we recommend arriving 15 minutes prior to the start time. If you have any problems arriving on time, it is your responsibility to contact us as soon as you can on the number provided on your booking voucher. Where possible, our team will try to help you meet up with your group at their discretion.
Events beyond our control
Weather
Our tours and experiences run rain or shine; sometimes it may be necessary to make minor adjustments to the itinerary to ensure your safety. These changes do not entitle customers to any refund or compensation. In the event of extreme weather conditions, when running the tour would be unsafe, we will reschedule or refund your tour. This is at the sole discretion of LivTours.
Unforeseen Closures or Strikes
In the event of the unexpected closure of a site or attraction on the day of your tour, your guide will provide an alternative itinerary. In such circumstances, you cannot request any refund or compensation.
Travel Credit
You can request travel credit instead of a cash refund up to 24 hours before the start time of your tour. Credit notes are for the entire value of your booking, plus 10%, having a total value of 110% of your original purchase. For example, if your booking cost €100, we would issue a credit note for €110 with a coupon code that you can use to rebook on LivTours.com at any time.
You cannot change your mind and request a refund after travel credit has been issued.
If you booked in 2020 before July 16th and opted to receive a voucher with no expiry date instead of a refund, you can redeem this voucher at any time by emailing booking@livtours.com. We just need to know your LVO booking number and the date(s) that you would like to schedule your tour(s).
For bookings made between July 16th 2020 and September 21st, 2021
