The below terms and conditions supersede any prior communication or understanding you have had from any of Adansi Travels’ staff or Sales Representative or directly from any of our advertising or communication platforms.

1. SAFETY CONCERNS

As a travel agency, we feel highly responsible for the safety of our guests and your safety is a top priority in all we do. In view of this, we encourage our prospective clients to travel only when it is safe to do so.

 

The destinations we promote are countries who have demonstrated high level of concern for the health and safety of citizens and international tourists. We have selected hotels who have put in place Covid-19 Safety Measures for guests and same applies to the attraction centers. You can be rest assured that we will always prioritize your health and safety in all we do at Adansi.

 

However, the ultimate responsibility for your safety and health during the trip rest on you and you must travel only when you are 100% fit to do so and must at all times adhere to the safety measures put in place by Health Authorities at any destination you may find yourself.

 

 

We provide free covid-19 safety kits for all our travels, including Face Mask, Disposable face masks and hand sanitizers. All our foreign trips are also insured against covid-19 and other unexpected circumstances.

2. PACKAGE CONTENT

We have taken our time to state the content of each package under the costing. It is your responsibility to take your time and go through this before you make your final decision. We will endeavor to deliver as per the advertised content.

 

If any component needs to be changed after booking as a result of situations beyond our control, we will inform you in advance and come to an agreeable term. Your payment entitles you to only the content as advertised in our official channels per the particular tour booked.

3. HOTEL ACCOMMODATION

Hotel Accommodation is based on twin/double sharing in the star category chosen. We will
endeavor to ensure all sharing rooms have two separate beds for people of same sex sharing and double bed for couples. For those travelling alone and may not want to share, you can make extra payment identified on the rate sheets as single supplement. This is the extra amount of money required to book your package under single room use. Most hotels have their check in from 2:00-3:00pm and the check out from 11:00am-12:00pm.

 

Early check in or late check out is entirely based on availability of the hotel and cannot be guaranteed by Adansi Travels. For flights arriving very early, you can book extra night earlier than your arrival date to guarantee early check in.

 

For flights departing very late, you may book extra night beyond the advertised room nights to guarantee late check out.

 

We have included all mandatory hotel taxes in our rate except in Dubai where Tourism Dirham Fees of $3-5/night/room is excluded. This fee is supposed to be paid by guest directly upon check in or check out depending on the hotel’s policy.

We carefully select our hotels to make sure your safety and comfort is assured. Our 3 star hotels give you standard services, 4-star hotels offer superior services whiles the 5-star hotels give luxury services. We implore you to book as per your budget considerations and your expectations for the trip. All hotel rooms are priced based on the starting room category of the particular hotel chosen.

 

Should you require room upgrade, you can indicate that prior to our scheduled trip so we check and update you on the extra cost involved. The hotel names given in our tour brochures are to help you know the standard of service per each star category.

 

We cannot guarantee securing the same mentioned hotels as that will depend on availability, but we will ensure that we provide hotels with similar comforts as those advertised per each star category. We have no control on hotel’s check in process and room or floor assignment as that is entirely based on availability at the time of check in.

4. VISAS

There is no visa required for Ghanaians travelling to certain destinations like Kenya, Singapore, Maldives, Mauritius, etc. and so no visa fee is included such packages. For Dubai, e-visa is required and Adansi Travels will acquire the visa for the client once the required document is submitted to Adansi. The visa duration used for this trip is usually 1-month Tourist Visa and the cost is already included in the package. Visa fees paid is non-refundable.

 

For destinations like UK, USA, Canada, South Africa, Malaysia, etc a stamped visa is required and we have included the cost of processing in the package. For destinations in Europe, visa fees are not included in the tour package and clients may have to pay at the embassy or application center.

After payment of the package, our visa consultant will engage you to assist you with the process.

 

We do not use any 3rd party to influence the decision of the visa outcome and so we scrutinize documents well to ensure high success rate. It is noteworthy to mention that we do not guarantee visas for any of our tours as the visas are issued at the discretion of the Consular officer for the particular country.

 

Clients take full responsibility for the information and documents submitted on their behalf during the visa application process and Adansi Travels cannot be blamed for any acts of errors or omissions resulting from the visa application.

In most instances, documents submission is done directly by applicant as biometric fingerprints would be required. We expect all clients to produce only genuine documents for the visa application and we have no way to verify the genuineness or otherwise of it. If your visa is refused as a result of fake documents, your entire deposit with us will be used to compensate the reproach on our business reputation. Visas acquired through our services should be utilized for the purpose of the tour and shall not be valid for employment or other immigration purpose.

 

Should you overstay or abuse your visa, Adansi Travels have the right to cooperate with the concerned Embassy and provide them with the needed information to track you. Should there be visa refusal for any reason other than fake documents, we will refund your payment with Adansi less the visa fees plus administrative charges. Please check the Refund Policy and also Visa rules for UAE

5. COSTING AND PAYMENT

The tour costing is originally priced in US Dollars because the service inclusions to be paid for are charged in USD or other foreign currencies other than Ghana Cedis. However, we accept payment of the trip in Ghana cedis at the prevailing exchange rate to be determined by Adansi Travels.

administrative fees of $100 or its equivalent.

paid:
UK: $300
Dubai: $150

19. UAE TOURIST VISA RULES

Adansi Travels has a high reputation of getting visas granted to their applicants. However, the entire decision to grant or refuse UAE visas is the sole decision of the Dubai Immigration.

Visa fee is non-refundable once applied irrespective of the outcome. If for any reason visa is refused, the visa fee of $150 will be deducted from the deposit amount paid and the rest refunded based on the refund policy of the tour. The normal processing time for the visa is usually 5-7 working days.

Applicants are advised to submit documents early enough to smoothen the process and receive visas ahead of travelling date. Visa can only be applied from Sunday to Thursday as Friday and Saturday are weekends.

The validity of the visa is usually 2 weeks to 2 months depending on the visa type and stay period varies from 96 hours to 1 month. As a tour participant, you agree to leave Dubai before expiry of your visa.

 

Should you overstay for any reason, you shall bear all the charges related to that overstay as stipulated by the Dubai Immigration. In the event that tour participants exceed their stay in the UAE beyond the validity of their visa, such clients are recorded as an “Overstay / Absconder” by the UAE Authorities. Under the circumstances, the person will be liable for the following penalties

- USD 2,000.00 per person for violation penalties to cover fines and deportation charges.

- USD 55.00 per person for the first day of overstays.

- USD 27.00 per person for each following overstay day.

 

The above charges are fixed and are non-negotiable. In view of the above, all tour applicants are highly encouraged to return before the expiry of their visas to avoid unnecessary penalties.
