(iii) Pricing & Inclusions/Exclusions

Prices listed on the Website are per person, unless otherwise specified.
All prices displayed on the Website include all local taxes and fees (subject to change of such taxes and fees), unless specifically stated.

In case that accommodation is provided, overnight stays are subject to residence fee, ranging from €0,50 – €4,00 (euros) per room, depending on the classification of the hotel. This fee has to be paid by the customer directly to the hotel providing the accommodation therefore it cannot be included in the offered price.

Various additional services such as pick up service, ticket value e.g. to museums, archaeological sites, shows, concerts etc and beverages or food may or may not be included in the offered price. Please read carefully the “details” section of each product before making a booking.

Price quotations are subject to change without notice, until a booking has been confirmed.

(iv) Payments & Transaction Security

The accepted means of payments are by debit, credit and/or prepaid card, e-wallet or by PayPal transfer, as described below. Payment made by any other means will not be accepted therefore it will not confirm your booking.
All payment transactions occur through the secure environment of Greek bank “Alpha Bank S.A.”, or via PayPal.

Greece Tour Hub accepts the following cards: Visa, MasterCard, Maestro, American Express and Diners as well as Masterpass e-wallet. There is no charge or service fee for processing card payments.

All payments made using the card are processed through the electronic payment platform of “Alpha e-Commerce” of Alpha Bank and uses TLS 1.2 encryption protocol encryption with 128-bit (Secure Sockets Layer – SSL). Encryption is a way of coding the information until it reaches its recipient, who will be able to decode it using the appropriate key.

Greece Tour Hub is not liable or responsible for not confirming a booking due to late or partial payments, false or wrong bank data (e.g. bank account or credit/debit card number) and use of expired or invalid credit/debit cards.

(v) Cancellation & Refunding Policy

All requests for cancellation of your booking must be directed to the Greece Tour Hub Customer Care Team (info@greecetourhub.com) who will process the request.

The standard policy for cancelling/refunding is as follows:

• No fees are charged for cancellation made at least 24 hours prior to the tour (full refund).
• Cancellations made within 24 hours of the start date of the tour will receive no refund.
• In case of non show on the day of the tour you will receive no refund.

In your cancellation email you will have to report the Tour Code Number, which was sent to you in the confirmation email, and the number of the Electronic Transaction Confirmation from the payment gateway.

If possible, use the same email address you used for the booking, since we will be able to identify you immediately.

In some cases you may be sent an email asking for additional information about your cancellation e.g. email change or multiple bookings.

In case you are eligible to refund, you will be notified by Greece Tour Hub within two (2) working days that your refund request has been processed.

The value of the transaction may be subject to taxes, duties, foreign transaction, currency exchange or other fees.

Your bank or credit or debit card company may convert the payment into the local currency and charge fees, resulting in differences between the amount displayed on Greece Tour Hub.com and the final amount charged to your bank account or credit or debit card statement. Please contact your bank or card company if you have any questions concerning any applicable conversion or fees.

Cancellation policies may vary from the standard and you must check any specific cancellation policy contained in the “booking info” section at the time of your booking, which is the policy that will apply to and govern the terms of your cancellation and any refunds.

All cancellation requests are processed through Greece Tour Hub. Greece Tour Hub is not liable or responsible for any refund and/or any form of compensation in case a cancellation or refund is requested in any other way than the one described above.

(vi) General Provisions

Tours and activities may not be confirmed or may be cancelled due to force majeure, illness, unavailability of the personnel or premises involved or for safety reasons. Should the activity/tour be cancelled due to force majeure causes, bad weather or sudden illness, it will be postponed to another date agreed upon by the parties. In case the activity cannot take place due to reasons ascribed to Greece Tour Hub, a full refund will be processed within 60 calendar days.
