“Philoxenia” Yoga Retreats Cancellation Policy
Yogazaz always caters for the best of its guests and canceling a retreat will always be the very last option. However, if Yogazaz must cancel a scheduled retreat due to low participation, you’re entitled to transfer your full payment to another scheduled retreat or request a refund of your payment.
Yogazaz is not responsible for your expenses incurred in preparation for any cancelled retreat, such as other accommodation, airline tickets, car rental, loss of work, and/or other costs associated with preparing for your trip.
Force Majeure
Yogazaz shall not be responsible for not fulfilling its contractual obligations to the extent that the failure to fulfil them is due to events outside its control, that is, force majeure events such as a pandemic, acts of God, fire, flood, cancellation of flights or/and prohibition of sailing due to adverse weather conditions, war, acts of terrorism, riot, civil commotion, governmental actions (excluding regulatory change), labour disputes, and any similar events. In such force majeure events, you’re entitled to transfer your full payment to another scheduled retreat or request a refund of your payment.
Reservation of Right
Yogazaz reserves the right to make any changes deemed necessary to our retreats.
Travel Insurance
Guests must have adequate travel insurance to cover the retreat’s activities.
Please note, even if you have a private health insurance in Greece or your respective country of residence, it is unlikely that this insurance will cover overseas trips such as the retreats offered by Yogazaz.
It is your responsibility to organise suitable travel and health insurance. Although we strongly encourage you to do so, you acknowledge that Yogazaz is not in the business of providing insurance products and cannot be held liable if your failure to arrange suitable insurance coverage leaves you exposed, medically, financially, or otherwise.
Passports, Visas and Documents
It is the responsibility of each guest to obtain a valid passport, visa(s) and necessary certificates for traveling to Greece.
