Scope & acceptance
- These Terms apply to all interactions with NoBound Travels, including browsing, inquiries, quotations, bookings, payments, and post-booking support.
- Each booking is subject to these Terms plus any destination- or package-specific terms shared before payment.
- We may update these Terms at any time. The version effective on your booking date applies to that booking.
Services we provide
NoBound Travels acts as a travel facilitator and package curator. We arrange and coordinate travel components such as:
- Custom or fixed domestic and international itineraries
- Flight, train, bus, and transfer bookings
- Hotel and accommodation reservations
- Visa assistance, where offered
- Travel insurance facilitation through third-party providers
- On-trip support and concierge services, where included
We are not the actual carrier, hotelier, or activity operator. Those services are delivered by third-party suppliers whose own terms also apply.
Booking process & confirmation
- A booking is confirmed only after we issue written confirmation by email or WhatsApp and receive the required payment.
- Availability, prices, and inclusions are subject to change until confirmation.
- Quotations are valid only for the period mentioned in the quote, typically 24-72 hours.
- Names on bookings must match government ID or passport exactly. Name changes may attract supplier penalties and our service fee.
Payment terms
4.1 Token amount (non-refundable)
- A token amount of INR 20,000 per person is required at booking to initiate your reservation and secure your slot.
- The token is non-refundable and non-transferable because it covers planning, holding, and administrative costs.
- The token is retained in all cases, including customer-initiated cancellations, schedule changes, or situations beyond our control.

Unless your package sheet states otherwise, the following applies after the token amount:
