Download the terms (Word)
These terms and conditions (the “Agreement”) govern the relationship between Alexander Tufel and Cesar Monell, two independent travel advisors working together (collectively, “Travel Advisors,” “we,” “us” or “our”), and the purchaser of travel services or lead traveler (“Client” or “you”).
1. Use of our services
You represent and warrant that:
a. You are at least 18 years of age and are authorized to enter into this Agreement and make travel bookings with Travel Advisors;
b. The information you provide (whether for you or on behalf of others) is true and accurate, and you will continue to provide updated information throughout your engagement with Travel Advisors; and

2. Independent Travel Advisors
a. Cesar Monell and Alexander Tufel are independent travel advisors affiliated with Fora Travel, Inc. (“Fora”) who work together to provide the services described in this Agreement. They are referred to collectively as “Travel Advisors” or “we.” Client understands and agrees that: (i) Travel Advisors are not agents, representatives or employees of Fora; (ii) Fora is a technology provider and host agency, not a travel service provider; (iii) Client will have no claim against (nor will Client file any claim against) Fora for losses or damages resulting or arising from the provision of services by Travel Advisors; and, (iv) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or otherwise, Fora is not a party to this Agreement for any purpose. Client expressly waives any claims, demands, or causes of action against Fora arising from or relating to any travel arrangements, advisor services, cancellations, disputes, or any other matters related to this Agreement.
3. Services; Concierge Fees
a. Travel Advisors will provide Client with travel planning services, which may include researching and booking travel arrangements such as accommodations, transportation, activities and tours based on Client’s preferences and budget, as well as any other services agreed to by the parties in writing.
b. Travel Advisors may charge a concierge fee for their services, which will be mutually agreed with Client in writing. Any concierge fees charged are 100% non-refundable and due before Travel Advisors begin work on an itinerary.
4. Suppliers; Client’s Responsibility
a. Travel Advisors’ role is to make travel reservations for the Client upon request and to act as liaison between Client and travel suppliers, ensuring the itinerary runs smoothly.
b. Client acknowledges that the suppliers whose names appear in travel documentation are those actually responsible for providing the travel services purchased and that travel documents may be issued by third party booking channels selected by Travel Advisors. Client consents to the use of the suppliers disclosed to Client and is responsible for due diligence of the suppliers chosen by Client or the traveler and quality of their services. Client agrees that the Travel Advisors will not be responsible if the Client is not satisfied with the final choices.
c. Travel Advisors make no guarantee of a supplier’s rates, bookings, quality of services, or special requests. Each supplier is an independent entity with its own management and is not subject to Travel Advisors’ control. Travel Advisors bear no responsibility for any changes, delays, alterations, modifications or cancellations of an itinerary or booking made by a supplier, other third party or due to force majeure and do not cover associated costs.
5. Travel Bookings
a. Rates: All quoted prices are in USD unless otherwise indicated and are subject to change without notice. You understand and agree that many suppliers employ dynamic pricing and prices are based on several factors, including demand and availability. Prices cannot be guaranteed until the applicable service is booked and the deposit, if applicable, is received.
b. Currency Fluctuations: Client is aware that there may be currency fluctuations that may affect the final amount due for the Client’s reservations.
c. Confirmed Bookings: All bookings are subject to availability and confirmation by Travel Advisors.
d. Personal Information: Client authorizes Travel Advisors’ use of Client’s personal information for bookings, airfare/airline tickets, tours, cruises, restaurant reservations and any other services requested by the Client.
e. Payment: Client will pay for all travel services promptly when due by paying the supplier directly or, if directed by Travel Advisors, by paying Fora who will process the payment on behalf of a supplier.
f. Credit Card Authorization; Disputes and Chargebacks: You may choose to keep a credit card on file with Travel Advisors which Travel Advisors may charge for any travel services and associated amounts that are expressly authorized by you. You further certify that you are an authorized user of any credit card provided to Travel Advisors. YOU AGREE NOT TO FILE ANY DISPUTE WITH YOUR BANK OR CREDIT CARD COMPANY TO AVOID OR VIOLATE ANY BOOKING TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF TRAVEL ADVISORS OR OUR TRAVEL SUPPLIERS OR PARTNERS, INCLUDING CANCELLATIONS OR CHANGES OF ITINERARY OR ARRANGEMENTS FOR REASONS BEYOND OUR CONTROL, UNLESS THE PRODUCT OR SERVICES PURCHASED WERE NEVER PROVIDED OR GROSSLY MISREPRESENTED. You agree to notify Travel Advisors immediately if any products or services purchased are not as expected and to give Travel Advisors a reasonable opportunity to assist in finding an acceptable resolution with the supplier responsible for providing the product or services.
g. Fees from Independent Travel Arrangements: Travel Advisors are not responsible for costs and fees incurred for travel arrangements made independently of Travel Advisors.
h. Nonrefundable Bookings; Modifications and Cancellation Fees: Client understands and agrees to all terms and conditions of suppliers from which it has purchased travel services, and that Client is subject to the deposit, cancellation, modification and refund policies of each individual supplier. Client also agrees to provide Travel Advisors with a minimum of 48 hours’ notice by email for Travel Advisors to effect any cancellation or modification requests. Travel Advisors will not be liable for any penalties imposed on Client due to untimely requests by Client. Client further agrees that to the extent Travel Advisors incur any fees or expenses because of modification or cancellation of a booking, such costs and expenses will be passed on to Client.
i. Travel Insurance. Travel insurance is not included unless expressly stated and purchased by Client. Travel insurance can protect against supplier issues, delays, cancellations, medical emergencies, lost luggage, and more. Proper insurance helps safeguard against financial loss in most situations. Without appropriate travel insurance, you understand and agree that if you cancel your travel or your trip is interrupted for any reason, Travel Advisors and travel suppliers’ cancellation penalties will apply resulting in the loss of monies up to the full cost of Client’s travel booking and related costs.
6. Government Identification and Travel Advisories
a. Denial of Entrance. You understand that Travel Advisors are not responsible for the denied entry into any country for any guest and that all guests are responsible to ensure that they have all the proper documents for entry. All names on documents must match the legal name on the guest’s photo I.D., and travel document information must match tickets. You understand that minors unaccompanied by birth parents will need a permission letter for travel outside the U.S. and any travelers with criminal convictions may be denied entry to certain countries, including Canada. Each guest is responsible for determining if issues are present with the immigration/customs process into a foreign country. BEING DENIED ENTRY FOR ANY REASON MAY RESULT IN A COMPLETE FINANCIAL LOSS ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR TRIP AND DOES NOT ENTITLE YOU TO ANY REFUND.
b. Passports. You understand that a passport is required for international travel, including for children & babies and that for some countries (including Mexico, Costa Rica, St. Lucia, Europe) passports must be valid 6 months after the date of travel. Additionally, a visa may be required by applicable government regulations. WHEN YOU RECEIVE YOUR TRAVEL DOCUMENTS, IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO ENSURE THE INFORMATION IS CORRECT.
c. Traveling with Minors. Children and infants may also require travel documents. Minors traveling with one parent, and/or without both parents, may be stopped and not admitted, unless authenticated and verified consent forms are provided to the authorities; please see https://help.cbp.gov for additional information. Parental or legal guardian consent must be provided to the supervising adult or group leader in writing.
d. Travel Advisories. Travel to certain destinations or during certain times may involve greater risk than others (especially as it relates to COVID-19/other communicable diseases and evolving geopolitical tensions). Changes in travel advisories (i.e., government-issued warnings, recommendations or notices regarding safety, security, health risks or other travel-related concerns in certain destinations) shall not supersede the cancellation and refund policies of travel suppliers or partners. Client acknowledges that unless they have applicable travel insurance coverage, changes to travel advisories or personal concerns, including anxiety or discomfort regarding a destination, do not entitle you to a refund, credit, or other compensation. It is your responsibility to review and understand travel advisories issued by the United States and the destinations you will be visiting. Travel Advisors do not represent that travel to locations, even locations for which they provide services to, is advisable or without risk. CLIENT’S PARTICIPATION IN ANY TRAVEL CONSTITUTES ACCEPTANCE OF SUCH RISK.

9. Inquiry and engagement
Reading our website, guides or social media content, requesting information, or submitting a planning questionnaire does not itself authorize a reservation, a payment or a planning fee. We will confirm the proposed scope and any applicable fee in writing. This Agreement must be actively accepted before payment of a planning fee or authorization of a booking. Supplier conditions and specific payment authorizations must also be approved where applicable. General published content is informational and is not a personalized recommendation for every traveler.
10. Compensation and hotel only bookings
We may receive commissions from hotels or other travel suppliers for bookings we arrange. There is no additional advisor fee for a hotel-only booking through us; we are paid by the property. Supplier charges, taxes, deposits and cancellation or change penalties remain applicable. Any separate concierge or planning service and its fee will be agreed in writing before that work begins. Preferred-partner benefits, promotions and amenities depend on the property, eligible rate, availability and applicable program conditions; they are not guaranteed unless expressly confirmed.
11. External links and personal information
Links to supplier or other third-party websites are provided for convenience. Those websites are independently operated and have their own terms and privacy practices. Our client booking responsibilities remain governed by this Agreement. We use information supplied by you to respond to inquiries and arrange requested services as described in the applicable privacy notice. If you provide information about another traveler, including a child, you confirm that you have appropriate authority to provide it. This provision does not replace a separate privacy policy.
Client acceptance
I acknowledge that I have received and reviewed this Agreement and actively agree to its terms. I understand that submitting an inquiry alone is not acceptance of this Agreement or authorization to book. This acceptance does not replace approval of specific supplier conditions or payment authorization. Use the signing bar at the bottom of this window to accept.
