Terms & Conditions
Reservations
Please visit www.crestwellgetaways.com, call Crestwell Travel Services LLC at (470) 232-9288, or contact us via email at info@crestwellgetaways.com.
Identification
Guests must make reservations in the full name that is listed on their passport that they will use for travel. If you need to make any changes to a name after travel documents have been issued, clients will be responsible for all name change fees, if applicable.
Payments
Reservations can be made online with major credit cards.
Refunds
All payments to Crestwell Travel Services are non-refundable and non-transferable. This is because Crestwell Travel Services has contractual agreements with hotels, airlines, and other vendors that will not allow us to obtain refunds. This way, we can keep our package prices competitive and allow you to make monthly payments on your vacation.
Chargebacks
Before filing a dispute with your bank, call Crestwell Travel Services LLC at (470) 232-9288 or contact us via email at info@crestwellgetaways.com to discuss account resolution. Filing chargebacks could result in your reservation being canceled and may prevent future travel with Crestwell Travel Services LLC.
Passports and Visas
Passengers are responsible for ensuring they have the proper travel documents and MUST CHECK with the respective consulate(s) or visa agency to determine whether any visas or passports are required. Passports are required to be valid for at least 6 months after the date of travel. Some countries require a full blank "VISA" page in the passport for stamping purposes.
Any information provided in the travel description pertains to US citizens only. Non-US citizens should check with the respective consulate of the country(s) to be visited for current entry requirements. Crestwell Travel Services LLC does not provide or validate travel requirements for Non-US citizens. We strongly suggest all cruise passengers have a valid passport in their possession while cruising.
Travel Insurance
Missing a vacation is bad enough. Losing the money you paid for your vacation is even worse. Therefore, we highly recommend Travel Insurance that provides coverage for Trip Cancellation, Interruption, Baggage Loss, and more. You are required to select and purchase travel insurance yourself for domestic and international tours.
Travel Documents
Provided full payment is received no later than your Final Payment due date, travel documents and travel instructions will be sent via email and/or mail 30 days or earlier before travel.
Children
All children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult. The minimum age for children on tours is 16. Accompanying adults are responsible for the safety of their children. Please note that many countries have adopted practices to prevent international abductions of children. If a person under the age of 18 years is traveling with an adult other than his/her parents or with only one parent, a notarized letter written by the parents, or non-traveling parent, granting authorization to travel, including the dates of travel, should be carried.
Prices
All prices listed are per person based upon shared twin room occupancy unless otherwise clearly specified. Prices do not include items of a personal nature, such as laundry, wines, water, beverages, food (other than at all-inclusive resorts or where clearly specified), passport and visa fees, insurance, and foreign port taxes unless specifically indicated in the package inclusions.
Prices are correct at the time of publication; however, as airfares continually fluctuate and classes of service may have limited capacity, tour package prices and availability will change accordingly. In case of human or computer error, Crestwell Travel Services LLC reserves the right to re-invoice for the correct price or service. A full refund will be made to passengers who choose not to pay an increase, provided Crestwell Travel Services receives a written cancellation within five days of the price increase notification.
Automatic Billing Plan
You are automatically enrolled in our automatic billing plan upon booking. You can relax knowing that your future payments will be made automatically. When you book, we'll calculate an evenly divided automatic billing plan for you, and you will know in advance on the day of every month that your payment will be processed. Your initial deposit is due at the time of booking, and your future payments will be charged according to the schedule you see on your invoice. Automatic billing is available at no charge.
You can opt out of automatic billing by emailing us after you make your reservations at info@crestwellgetaways.com.

Force Majeure
There may be times when either party is unable to perform under the travel contract for reasons out of each other's control.

In the event that a force majeure event occurs, the parties will look to and follow the cancellation policies of the suppliers and these terms & conditions. Passengers will be informed of their options if a force majeure event occurs.
Travelers with Disabilities
In order to fully enjoy your tour, we recommend that you select a trip that is suitable to your physical capabilities. Tour participants requiring any form of assistance are required to notify Crestwell Travel Services LLC prior to reservation. The tour participant must be accompanied by an individual responsible for providing those services. Tour managers, guides, drivers, or other personnel are not able to provide such assistance.
Wheelchairs & Walkers (USA Tours): Crestwell Travel Services LLC seeks to accommodate disabled travelers to the extent possible. However, we cannot provide individual assistance to travelers with wheelchairs or other mobility devices. Passengers are required to advise us of their accessibility requirements prior to booking.
International Tours: Hotels and cruise lines outside of the United States are not required to comply with ADA requirements and may not have ramps, wide entryways, or elevators. Due to physical constraints and space limitations, wheelchairs and motorized scooters may not be taken aboard motor coaches and river cruises.
Service Animals: Service animals cannot be accommodated on international escorted tours. Passengers on USA escorted tours who require a service dog should check with Crestwell Travel Services LLC prior to booking.
Airlines
Crestwell Travel Services LLC is not responsible for the services and policies imposed by the airlines. Airline schedules and flights are subject to change without notice.

Crestwell Travel Services LLC takes no responsibility for ship substitutions or itinerary changes imposed by a cruise line.

Assumption of Risk
I am aware that travel involves hazardous activities, with a risk of illness, injury, or death which may be caused by forces of nature, animals, insects, or flora, the negligence of Crestwell Travel Services LLC, or other persons and companies known or unknown, or of the willful or criminal conduct of third parties. I am willing to accept the risks and uncertainty involved as being an integral part of my adventure, and I hereby accept and assume full responsibility for any and all risks of illness, injury, or death.
