Booking Terms

This website, www.icelandguest.com, is a holiday booking site operated by Nordic Visitor Ehf., a fully licensed Icelandic travel agency located at Bríetartún 13, 105 Reykjavík, Iceland (registration no. 690405-0590)

The following booking conditions shall govern all bookings with Icelandguest.com. In these booking conditions, “you” and “your” refers to persons named on the booking and “we”, “us” and “our” refers to Icelandguest.com. Any booking made or order placed by you, whether through the company’s website or otherwise, shall be deemed as an offer by you to purchase the relevant package or other travel arrangement subject to these booking conditions.

No contract between you and Icelandguest.com shall come into existence until Icelandguest.com accepts full payment and issues a confirmation invoice. The person who makes the booking accepts these conditions on behalf of all members of the traveling party and is responsible for all payment due from the party. Booking services with Icelandguest.com are currently only available to persons who are at least 18 years old.

By submitting a booking, you warrant and confirm to us that you comply with these arrangements. 

Booking and confirmation 
After booking a holiday package with Icelandguest.com, you will be contacted within two working days by your designated travel consultant, who will assist with your booking and serve as your point of contact for any travel needs during your stay. 

You will receive the full name and direct contact information for your travel consultant along with information about your booking, payment and what to expect during your holiday. If you are paying by credit card, no payment will be deducted from your credit card until you have been contacted by your travel consultant. 

Terms of payment
A deposit of 20% of the total package price shall be paid to Icelandguest.com at the time of booking. In case of delayed payment, Icelandguest.com reserves the right to treat this as a cancellation and to withdraw confirmation of the services. The balance of the full payment is due to Icelandguest.com no later than 60 days prior to arrival. For packages booked within 60 days or less prior to arrival, the full payment shall be made at the time of booking.

In the event that Icelandguest.com is unable to obtain confirmation from the supplier, an alternative will be offered. If you do not accept the alternative, or Icelandguest.com is not able to offer an alternative, a full refund will be offered. You will be notified by your travel consultant of any relevant changes prior to issuing your confirmation invoice. If you do not accept the alternative offered, you must advise us in writing within seven days from the time you have received your full itinerary with details of all confirmed services and accommodations.  

For services booked directly at Icelandguest.com, we accept all major credit cards and electronic bank transfer.

Third-party credit cards: If your travel services are being paid for with a third-party credit card, we will require written authorization to be provided by the cardholder via fax or letter. 

American Express/Diners Club: Please note that American Express and Diners Club charge very high handling fees, and we regretfully must pass part of this fee – 3% of the total invoice – on to our customers.

Bank transfers: If you wish to make an electronic bank transfer and need details of our bank account, please contact one of our travel consultants.

Currency: All prices for holiday package on Icelandguest.com are listed in Euros. Likewise, all purchases are charged in Euros and all refunds are issued in Euros.

Validity of prices 
All rates quoted or shown in our tariffs include VAT and all other taxes. The rates 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 the control of Icelandguest.com. Any eventual changes in rates will not be made without at least eight 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. Icelandguest.com will absorb an amount equivalent to 5% of the total price. Any amount exceeding 5% will be charged, but should the surcharge exceed 10% the client will be entitled to cancel the booking for a full refund.

Icelandguest.com reserves the right to correct pricing in the event that a booking is made on a package or service that is wrongly priced within the booking system or wrongly quoted by a representative. In such case, the client will be notified as soon as possible and may either opt to pay the difference of the corrected price or cancel the booking for a full refund in the same currency as the purchase was made. No other compensation will be paid and Icelandguest.com shall have no further liability to the client after cancellation.

Icelandguest.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.

Icelandguest.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), the customer is responsible for any additional costs incurred as a result of such changes (i.e., additional hotel nights, meals, transfers, etc.), at the time provided. Furthermore, all optional activities and day tours are undertaken at the customer’s own risk. 

We strongly advise all customers to have comprehensive travel insurance to meet all contingencies.
