Our Travelers Protection Plan consists of a Cancellation Fee Waiver combined with Travel Insurance Benefits.

Part A - Cancellation Fee Waiver (CFW)

Should you have to cancel your tour or interrupt your tour en route, we have added a non-refundable Travelers Protection Plan (TPP) in our deposit schedule. If you do not wish to purchase this protection, simply deduct the amount from your deposit. This non-refundable fee waives all cancellation fees and penalties, provided we are notified of the cancellation one day before your tour departs. While on tour, if a passenger must leave early due to a personal illness, illness or death of a member of the immediate family, the purchase of the Travelers Protection Plan (TPP) guarantees full refund for any unused services (including purchased optional excursions) after the departure of the tour. Handling of return air transportation is included if your airline tickets were provided by Mayflower Cruises & Tours. *Exception: If you purchased non-refundable airline tickets from Mayflower Tours, the TPP does not provide a refund for the airline tickets in the event of a cancellation or a return transportation benefit if you must return home early. You will only be charged the TPP premium for the land tour instead of the premium for land tour with air.
