Standard Cancellation Policy
If you cancel or cannot take your tour as a consequence of force majeure, Kyoto Daily Tours will refund the amount you have paid for your tour to a limit $1000 USD. If you have paid more than $1000 for your tour, Kyoto Daily Tours will refund the amount you have paid less any non-recoverable out-of-pocket costs the Tour Guide has incurred on your behalf - car rentals, admissions, hotel reservations, tickets etc. We may require you to provide verification to confirm that you were unable to take your tour if you request a refund under this provision.
Force Majeure includes impersonal events such as war, civil insurrection, strikes, volcanoes, extreme weather, earthquake or natural disaster that makes the it dangerous or impossible to safely undertake the tour. The determination of what constitutes 'Force Majeure' is at the discretion of Kyoto Daily Tours. However, a travel warning issued by the US Department of State AFTER you book your tour invokes 'force majeure' or if you are on a ship and it is unable to dock for whatever reason, you are covered under this 'Force Majeure' provision.
For cancellation due to any other reasons (such as illness, change of personal circumstances), the date on which the request to cancel is received by Kyoto Daily Tours will determine the refund due as follows:
