Terms & Conditions

1. Booking & payment

• A booking is confirmed once availability is agreed and we have acknowledged your reservation in writing (email or messaging).
• Unless we specify otherwise, payment is typically collected at check-in (hostel or tour meet point) in Ha Giang or as stated on your confirmation.
• Some departures or peak dates may require a deposit or prepayment; we will state amounts and due dates clearly before you commit.

2. Cancellation & refund

• Our detailed rules for payment, cancellation, rescheduling, and no-shows are set out in the Payment, cancellation & refund policy.
• Where force majeure or serious safety issues affect the route, we may adjust or cancel services; any refund or credit is handled case by case after deducting costs already incurred (transport, permits, accommodation, meals, etc.).

3. Itinerary changes

• Routes may change because of weather, road works, permits, or safety. Guides and operations may adjust timing, stops, or overnight locations.
• We prioritise guest safety and a fair experience; we will communicate significant changes when practical.
