If you need to cancel or modify your booking, please contact us as soon as possible.

Some bookings may be non-refundable or have strict cancellation deadlines.

5. Travel Documentation

You are responsible for ensuring that you have all necessary travel documentation, including valid identification, passports, visas, and any required health certificates or vaccinations. TravelNest Agency is not responsible for any issues arising from inadequate or incorrect travel documentation.

We recommend checking entry requirements for your destinations well in advance of your travel dates. Requirements can change, and it is your responsibility to stay informed about current regulations. We can provide general guidance but cannot guarantee the accuracy of documentation requirements.

6. Travel Insurance

We strongly recommend that all travelers obtain comprehensive travel insurance to protect against unforeseen circumstances such as trip cancellations, medical emergencies, lost luggage, and other travel-related incidents. Travel insurance is not automatically included in our service packages.

TravelNest Agency is not liable for any losses, expenses, or damages that could have been covered by appropriate travel insurance. We can provide information about travel insurance options, but the decision to purchase insurance and the selection of coverage is your responsibility.

7. Liability and Disclaimers

TravelNest Agency acts as an intermediary between you and various service providers including hotels, tour operators, transportation companies, and activity providers. We exercise reasonable care in selecting reputable partners but do not control their operations and cannot be held responsible for their actions or omissions.

We are not liable for any injury, loss, damage, delay, or inconvenience caused by service providers or circumstances beyond our control, including but not limited to weather conditions, natural disasters, strikes, political unrest, or changes in travel regulations. Our liability is limited to the services we directly provide.
