Product Validity, Modifications & Amendments

All products, tours and services offered by Countryfi are valid as per the dates displayed at Countryfi.com or any Countryfi-affiliated website. Countryfi is not responsible or liable for any information that it does not directly provide.

All requests for modifications/amendments must be directed to the Countryfi Customer Care Team (click here to submit a “Date Amendment” request on an existing booking) who will process the request.

Countryfi does not charge a fee to amend or change the dates of an existing booking, as long as the request is received by our Customer Care team more than three (3) days ahead of your confirmed travel date.

It is not possible to change or modify a special event, theater or show ticket. Sales of these tickets are final and cannot be amended once your original purchase is confirmed.

All other date-change requests and amendments are subject to availability by our suppliers and/or service providers; Countryfi cannot guarantee the success of any date-change request.

If you request a date change within three (3) days or less of your confirmed travel date, Countryfi will attempt to honor your request; however changes made three days or less from your original travel date may attract an additional fee. For multi-day and overnight tours, date changes made within seven (7) days of your confirmed travel date may also attract additional fees from our suppliers and/or service providers.

If you make a purchase using a Countryfi promotion code, or if you accept a discount or special-offer price during the Countryfi checkout process, you may invalidate your discount or special-offer price by making any changes or amendments to your itinerary once your purchase is complete. Countryfi may decide, at its sole discretion, to honor your discount or special-offer pricing if you make a post-purchase change or amendment to your itinerary. However Countryfi reserves the right to invalidate your discount or special-offer pricing if you make any changes to your confirmed itinerary.

Occasionally our suppliers and/or service providers make changes to tour dates, prices, inclusions, coverage, age requirements, etc. As a result, Countryfi reserves the right to cancel, change or substitute any service, tour, ticket or product that you have booked at Countryfi.com or through Countryfi-affiliated websites, at any time, for any reason.

In such cases, if you are dissatisfied with the alternatives offered, you are entitled to a full refund of the original purchase price.

Notwithstanding the above, when we are informed in advance by our agents, service providers and/or suppliers of a significant change to a booking and/or to a tour, product or event, we make every reasonable effort to notify the consumer, travel agent and/or distributor as appropriate, in order to amend or re-issue the booking where feasible.

For products noted as a “Worry-free Shore Excursion”, if you are not returned to the ship in time to board, we will arrange the necessary transport to the next port-of-call. This policy applies only to our contracted local suppliers and only when, through no fault or action of your own, you are not returned to the ship in time to board. The policy is void in instances where delay is caused by your own actions and/or you have deviated from the Countryfi activity or tour. You must supply Countryfi with correct arrival and departure ship information and ensure there is enough time (min. 2 hours) between the tour end time and the ship departure time. You must contact Countryfi directly to request next port-of-call transportation arrangements as customers cannot book their own travel. Countryfi will select and book travel to the next port of call (not to exceed US$1000 per person). In addition, if your ship misses a port of call or is delayed beyond the commencement time of your Worry-free Shore Excursion, simply contact Countryfi within 14 days. Pending verification of the ships actual itinerary, we will issue you a refund.
