Cancellations & refunds

What you pay online is Casa Aureum's booking deposit. Here is exactly what happens if your plans change.

Shared tours

Cancellations & refunds

Online you only pay Casa Aureum's booking deposit; the rest goes directly to the operator on the day of your tour. And if your plans change, we're happy to help.

  2. 7 days to 72 hoursWe refund halfof your deposit, minus the gateway fee, or you move your date once

  • If the weather keeps us in port, no worries: we reschedule your date for free, or refund your deposit minus the gateway fee.
  • About the gateway fee: PayPal charges around 5 to 6% of the deposit to process the payment (roughly $50 to $60 per $1,000). It goes to PayPal, not to Casa Aureum, which is why it can't be returned.
  • To cancel or change your date, just message us on WhatsApp or email with your booking code. We're here to help.
