To reach a confirmed reservation, the following shall be taken into account:
You send us a reservation or availability form and within 24-48 hours you receive our reply. You have a small deadline either to definitively confirm the reservation you requested or think about the alternatives that we may suggest, depending on the availability of the accommodation.

To make a confirmed reservation, you shall receive a written confirmation, with the corresponding code for your booking within 48 hours after your final request. If you don’t receive this code, please contact us at reservation@visit-cyclades.com

The voucher corresponding to the tour reservation, as well as all relevant documents, will be e-mailed to you once payment has cleared. You can find out more details about the payment in the section TERMS OF PAYMENT.

If your reservation concerns a specific confirmed package, you shall know that if you want to change a hotel or the schedule of the package, thus making changes in all the reservations in the corresponding islands, our company reserves the right to charge some procedural expenses. If your package is charged with a price increase due to a different period that may occur because of the change in dates for a hotel that you have already booked, then you will be charged the whole amount of the increase.

Our company accepts reservations by people over 18 years old. In a contrary case, we reserve the right to refuse handling the request.

Moreover, if you change your reservation during your stay at the hotel or other accommodation that you have selected, please inform us. If you fail to inform us, our company bears no responsibility if you are asked to pay an additional amount for the extension of your stay, or in case you leave earlier and cancellations occur, you will not be entitled to reimbursement.

According to the reservation policy mentioned above, this is our procedure:

Upon the final confirmation of your reservation, an advance payment of 30% of the total amount is requested for the final registration of your booking.

The balance shall be paid at least 20-25 days prior to the start of your trip, unless there are services that require the immediate full payment, such as cruises, ship tickets etc…

In cases where the reservation/request takes place at the last moment, meaning in a period less than 20 days from the onset date of your trip, immediate payment of the total amount for the services you chose is required.

Payment may be made with the selection that fits your preferences in the following ways:

1. Either by sending your details and your credit card details through our website and the specific security page that we indicate: https://parosbooking.com/payments/

2. Payment for the boat tickets booked through https://visit-cyclades.liknoss.com/app

You may follow the specific instructions indicated from the specific app.

3. Or by sending the money through a bank transfer. We will inform you of the banks with which we collaborate (Please check in https://parosbooking.com/payments/

Where are mentioned our bank account numbers, so that you choose the one that suits you best).

When the payment is made by wire transfer, you shall send us the bank deposit statement, by fax or e-mail, within the time period that you have been allowed to make the payment. If the deadline expires and you have not notified us, we will not proceed to the final information and confirmation of the relevant accommodation/travel service. So, there is a possibility that the accommodation/travel service supplier will cancel the reservation. This basically concerns the advance payment required for the finalization of your reservation.

Your credit card will be charged with the agreed amount, always expressed in Euros. Please note that we charge no extra fee for the use of credit cards and the following ones can be used: MasterCard, Visa and Maestro cards.

ATTENTION Electron (eg. Visa) cards, are not accepted, as in accordance with the banks’ guidelines, they cannot be debited without the physical presence of the customer.

Also AMEX & Dinners cards are not accepted either, as we do not cooperate with them in any service provided.

Upon the payment for the selected services, you will be sent by e-mail (or fax, if you wish) the confirmation voucher for the hotel or other accommodation that you may choose, as well as the details of the services you purchased and all data related to your schedule or the package that you selected, and the payment receipts.

In the event that an already confirmed reservation is cancelled, you should have in mind the following:
When a reservation that has been partially or entirely paid off, you shall e-mail us the cancellation at management@visit-cyclades.com or reservation@visit-cyclades.com. Please note that your cancellation will be valid only if you receive our confirmation within the next 24 hours.

For cancellations made at least one month prior to the onset of your trip or your arrival, no cancellation fees apply, save for a 25.00 Euros fee for file expenses and administrative costs., you will be reimbursed depending on the way you made your payment.

For cancellations done less than a month prior to your arrival, the decision of whether there will be cancellation charges lies on the policy that the hotel or other accommodation that you have chosen follows. In some cases, where the accommodation follows a special cancellation policy, this will be mentioned in the general information related to the accommodation you have selected, otherwise it is up to the hotel to define whether it will charge a cancellation fee or not. It is important to know that our primary concern is our customers’ interest and we always do our best to minimize cancellation fees, if this is possible, upon contact with the accommodation.

Moreover, it’s must be stressed that no reimbursement applies in cases where you do not make use of the pre-selected services due to your own choice or mistake (e.g. you miss the ship, or you are late in waking up or you are not ready at the time set for your transportation appointment, or you give wrong details about your arrival, etc…). In case a service is not provided due to our or our collaborator’s fault, either the corresponding amount will be reimbursed or there will be some sort of other compensation.

In case there are changes or cancellation due to weather condition or other reasons of force majeure, then again upon communication with our company, there will be a readjustment of your schedule, based on the new prevailing conditions and given that this is feasible, otherwise no reimbursement will be made for services not provided due to the foregoing conditions.
