Terms and Conditions for Photo Workshops & Private Tours

Last updated on 20/07/2024.

These terms and conditions apply to photo workshops & private tours which are sold by Iceland Travel through JVN Photography ehf.

Terms of Payment

Iceland Travel accepts Visa, MasterCard and American Express.

For all bookings made and/or signups to a photo workshop within 90 days prior to the start, a full payment must be made at the time of the booking.

For all bookings made and/or signups to a photo workshop made 91 days or more prior to the start, a 25% non-refundable deposit must be paid at the time of the booking. The remainder of the total price is to be paid 90 days prior to the start. If payment is not received 90 days prior to the start, this will be treated as a cancellation of the booking and withdraw its confirmation of services.

Cancellation

A cancellation must be sent in writing, by e-mail, and needs to be confirmed by JVN Photography ehf./Iceland Travel in order to be valid. In conformity with business practices within the Icelandic travel industry, the traveller is required to pay cancellation fees on the total holiday price as follows:

Time of cancellation:

More than 90 days before the workshop commences	25% of the total amount is non-refundable (deposit)
Between 90 and 61 days before the workshop commences	50% of the total amount is non-refundable
Between 60 and 31 days before the workshop commences	65% of the total amount is non-refundable
Between 30 and 8 days before the workshop commences	75% of the total amount is non-refundable
7 days before the workshops commences	100% of the total amount is non-refundable

We strongly encourage getting private travel insurance that may reimburse the non-refundable amount in case of unforeseen circumstances on your behalf.

If a service that has been confirmed unconditionally is cancelled by Iceland Travel/JVN Photography ehf., for example, due to insufficient participation, cancellations will be made with at least 4 weeks’ (28 days) notice. Iceland Travel shall make every effort to provide similar alternative arrangements without additional costs. Should those alternatives not be to your satisfaction, a full refund will be made of the amount paid.

The counting method for cancellation charges excludes the day of the start of the trip and begins on the date when we receive written notice of cancellation, or on the date upon which your cancellation is treated as occurring because of non-payment. A week is seven days.
