If you wish to change cards for the remaining amount please notify your assigned travel consultant in writing as soon as possible after booking.

In the case of delayed payment, Swadeshi (deshghuri.com) reserves the right to treat this as a cancellation of the booking and withdraw its confirmation of the services

All rates quoted or shown in our tariffs are based on current prices and are subject to change without notice in the event of currency fluctuation, government taxes or any such cost increase that is beyond Swadeshi (deshghuri.com)’s control. If an incorrect price has been posted in error, we reserve the right to refuse, cancel, amend or limit any order placed at the incorrect price.

Swadeshi (deshghuri.com) reserves the right to notify you of any increase to prices already published in our pricelists, brochures or website. Any eventual changes in rates will not be made without at least six(6) weeks’ notice.

After the final invoice has been issued, the price is guaranteed against any surcharge, unless an increase is due to government laws or currency changes. Swadeshi (deshghuri.com) will absorb an amount equivalent to 5% of the package price. Amounts exceeding 5% will be charged but should the surcharge exceed 10%, you will be entitled to cancel your booking with a full refund.

Our Forever Yours deposit is designed to protect you from unexpected events that may force you to cancel or delay your trip. Our standard cancellation terms still apply, but this policy ensures that the 20% deposit you paid for your booking can be used for the same tour package with a different arrival date, transferred to a new tour package or passed on to a friend or family member.

NOTE: Our Forever Yours deposit policy applies to all tour packages except those that include travel by cruise, train or flight or accommodation at ice/snow hotels as well as tour packages with stricter payment and cancellation rules specified in the package details.

For all cancellations, Swadeshi (deshghuri.com) will make every effort to ensure the best protection for you. However, late cancellation can result in compensation claims from hotels and other service providers.  All cancellations must be sent to Swadeshi (deshghuri.com) in writing, by letter or e-mail from the tourist/the person involved in booking. In accordance with standard business practices of the travel industry, Swadeshi (deshghuri.com) is obliged to charge customers cancellation fees at a percentage of the full price, as follows :

Please note that cancellation rules are stricter than normal for the following services: international and domestic flights, day tours that include flights, accommodation at ice/snow/igloo hotels, Resorts/City Hotels/theme parks, train tickets and cruises. Therefore, Swadeshi (deshghuri.com) cannot refund any of these services booked through us. 

Some of our holiday packages do have stricter cancellation rules, and in those cases the information will be stated in the package details online.

Please note that cancellation by passenger(s) within a group may either result in a price increase for the whole group or a cancellation fee being charged to the passenger(s) who has cancelled.

We strongly recommend that all our clients take out comprehensive travel insurance to avoid dispute in case of cancellation.

Change is data and destination is NOT considered as change to booking policy. Schedule, Itinerary change etc are to be considered as CANCELATION and then new booking has to be applied.  All requests for changes to a booking must be made in writing from the person who submitted the booking. An administration fee of BDT 1200 (USD $15) will be charged to the credit card used for the original booking for each day/night of the itinerary that is modified in addition to any additional supplier costs incurred by the change(s) requested.

However, the administration fee will be waived if changes are requested within 30 days of the date of booking. Furthermore, for bookings made within 60 days of arrival, changes can be made without incurring an administration fee until the confirmation/travel documents have been sent. Additional supplier costs may still apply depending on the change(s) requested.

Transfers: A booking may be transferred from one party to another, provided that the new party upholds the conditions of the booking. Both parties must assume joint liability for this fee and any other costs that may be incurred to the booking.

Swadeshi (deshghuri.com) claims no responsibility for any loss, damage, accident, injury, sickness or schedule change due to weather, strike or any other cause beyond Swadeshi (deshghuri.com)’s control. Swadeshi (deshghuri.com) acts in good faith, and cannot be held responsible for any agent, hotel, coach operator, airline, guide, restaurant or any other person’s or company’s acts, defaults or delays.

Swadeshi (deshghuri.com) reserves the right to alter routes, itineraries or departure times, without prior notice, should the necessity arise. In the case of any changes to flights (domestic and international) or to scheduled travel by cruise, ferry, bus or train, the passenger is responsible for any additional costs incurred as a result of such changes (e.g., additional nights at a hotel, meals, transfers, etc.) at the time provided. We therefore advise all customers to have comprehensive travel insurance to meet all contingencies.

Our goal is to provide excellent customer service, and in order to do so we maintain strict quality monitoring. If, for any reason, you are unhappy with your tour package, we want to hear about it right away. We recommend calling our office as soon as any incident arises while on your holiday. If you are unable to do so at the time, you must notify Swadeshi (deshghuri.com) in writing within 30 days of your return or else you may jeopardize your right to compensation.
