Tripolo understands that a guide canceling a trip—or failing to confirm your booking—can disrupt your plans. While these situations are uncommon, we have policies in place to ensure you are supported and treated fairly.
If your guide cancels your booking
If your guide cancels your trip at any time:
Your guide’s booking fee will be fully refunded
Processing fees may not be refundable
The refund is issued automatically to your original payment method
You will receive a notification in the Tripolo App and by email
No action is needed from you to request the refund.
If your guide does not confirm within 24 hours
Guides must confirm bookings within 24 hours. If your guide does not confirm in time:
Your booking will be automatically canceled
Your guide’s booking fee will not be charged or will be fully refunded
Processing fees are not charged
You will receive a notification in the app
In this case, neither the guide’s booking fee nor processing fees will remain on your card.

Browse other guides available on your trip date
