Additional Details:

 

• All tours combined with Alcatraz Island and tickets are deemed final and nonrefundable.
• Missing the ferry departure to Alcatraz precludes substitutions or alternative departures, as Alcatraz tickets are consistently sold out.
• The fees for Muir Woods parking and reservations are included in your booking. Please note that these fees, along with Alcatraz tickets, are nonrefundable in the event of a cancellation.

 

• Irrespective of the reason for your cancellation, be it medical, business-related, weather-related, or personal, we adhere consistently to our cancellation and refund policy, treating all customers equally, as outlined on our website.
• When a booking is made, we reserve tour dates exclusively for you, foregoing other reservations. Regardless of attendance, our business incurs expenses such as tour guide and office staff wages, vehicle costs, the tour itself, Alcatraz tickets and Muir woods commercial permit fees, and other services arranged on your behalf, all of which must be fully compensated. Therefore, our refund policy is applied uniformly to account for these commitments.

 

 

• In cases of cancellations due to medical or personal reasons, we sympathize with the inconvenience it may cause.
• Our website clearly communicates our terms, refund, and cancellation policy during each booking. We recommend thorough consideration of individual circumstances before committing to a booking. Consistent with our business insurance, exceptions to these policies cannot be made.
• We diligently inform customers about our policies through various channels, including our website, email notifications upon booking, and inclusion with the tour voucher. Despite our efforts, some customers may seek a refund without familiarizing themselves with our policies.
• It's important to differentiate our local small business from large travel insurance companies. We do not provide travel insurance and do not consider cancellations resulting from medical situations, personal or professional matters, flight/travel interruptions. We are not qualified to offer travel insurance, as it falls under a different industry regulated by the federal government.
• Travel insurance options are available through various companies like Allianz Global Assistance, Travel Guard by AIG, USI Affinity Travel Insurance Services, Travel Insured International, World Nomads, Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection, IM, AXA Assistance USA, Travelex Insurance Services, Seven Corners, etc. These recommendations are based on a Google search, and we are not affiliated with these companies. Refer to your credit card company, travel agent, bank, or local travel insurance providers for more information. The Federal Government website: https://travel.state.gov/content/travel.html is also a valuable resource.
• Prior to making a booking, please review our website terms, cancellation, and refund policy. These policies are consistently applied to all customers, irrespective of circumstances. Thank you for understanding our position as a small business. We appreciate your time in comprehending our policies.

Declined Transactions: Why was your reservation declined?

 

• A decline may result from mismatched customer bank information, such as name, card number, expiration date, CVV, zip/postal code, or billing address. It can also occur due to insufficient funds. Your tour(s) will be confirmed upon approval of a new transaction by your bank.
