Deposit Protection Plan Our 5-Year Guarantee: Should your plans change and you cancel your booking one hundred and twenty (120) days or more prior to your cruise-tour start date, you will receive a credit of R 3 000 per person, valid for up to five years from date of cancellation. This credit cannot be used as deposit for a future booking and can only be used as a credit (no cash value) towards a new booking on an alternative departure. Only one credit per person can be applied to each cruise or cruise/tour booked, and is combinable with all current Uniworld promotions.

Rivers Of The World bookings: For cancellation 120 days or more prior to departure the cancellation charge is R 35 000 per person. For cancellations less then 120 days from departure please refer to the above schedule.

ILLNESS OR ABSENTEEISM: In the event of your withdrawal from a cruise after commencement for reasons of illness, you must obtain a medical certificate in support of any insurance claim. We regret that no refunds can be made for absences from a cruise, including but not limited to missed meals or sightseeing.

Cruise/Tour Revision Fee: A fee of R 500 per person, per transaction, will be charged for any passenger name change, cruise date change (within the same calendar year only) or itinerary change made to a reservation after the booking is confirmed unless the change increases the value of the booking. A passenger name change, cruise date change or itinerary change within 120 days of departure will be treated as a cancellation subject to our cancellation policy and a new reservation must be made. Cancellation charges (as shown above) will apply. Any revision to a booking may result in the loss of a confirmed airline reservation, change fees (refer to the Air Travel change fees section for details) and increased airfare in addition to any charges levied by the airlines, which will be payable by the Passenger.

YOUR FLIGHT

Airlines and Airfare: Airfares are subject to change or withdrawal at any time (without notice), and airlines reserve the right to change the payment due date at any point prior to ticketing. Changes to flight itineraries and name changes may result in penalties charged by the airline concerned and passed on to the passenger.

Air Inclusive Promotions: All tickets must be issued by the end of any air inclusive promotion, unless otherwise stated. For any airfares where the airline has not yet published their schedule at time of booking your cruise/cruise package, we will aim to contact your travel advisor within fourteen (14) days of your preferred return flight date becoming available, if advised at time of booking.

Air Revision Fee: A fee of R 500 per person will be charged for any revision or alteration made to an airfare after confirmation. This charge will apply each time you make a change. If you change your air travel plans after your ticket is issued, you will be charged R 1 100 per person per change, plus any airline-imposed penalties which may be up to 100% of the air ticket value.

Airline Cancellations: If you choose to cancel your air arrangements at any time, your air deposit will be non-refundable, alongside any fees and charges the airline may impose for cancellation under the rules of the air ticket that has been issued by Uniworld on your behalf. Inside 120 days the full airfare costs are non-refundable. For air booked under “air included” or promotional offers, cancellation charges may be deducted from any cruise fare refund you may be entitled to under our Cancellation Policy.

Air Bookings and Restrictions: Uniworld is not responsible for denied boarding or reissued costs due to an incorrect name, date of birth or gender information supplied to Uniworld. Flight itineraries supplied prior to ticketing are subject to change without notice. Uniworld is not responsible for any inconvenience or costs or fees incurred as a result of delays, lost luggage, or disruption of air service. Flight itineraries provided are subject to change by the Air Carrier(s).

Seat Assignments and Special Services: Requests for seat assignments, special meals and special services must be made directly to the airline. Not all airlines offer pre-assigned seating and any additional charge will be at the guests’ expense. Seating is solely under the airlines control as are itinerary changes, flight delays and schedule changes.

ARRIVAL AND DEPATURE TRANSFERS

Complimentary Group Transfers: Complimentary group transfers are available between the airport and the ship/hotel on the day the cruise or cruise-tour begins, and between the ship/hotel and the airport on the day the cruise or cruise-tour ends, when flight arrival and departure times meet our published Transfer Guidelines. Please note, there may be a waiting period of two hours or more unless private car transfers have been purchased.

Please note: Due to airport restrictions, group transfer motor coaches may not be allowed to park near the terminal exit. As a result, guests with group transfers should expect to walk up to 15 minutes or longer from the terminal to the motor coach. Our airport representatives have limited ability to carry luggage or assist guests with mobility needs. Guests who want or need assistance on arrival are advised to consider booking a private transfer, as private cars can usually stop in front of the terminal exit and provide guests with more assistance.

Private Car Transfers: Private car transfers for up to two guests per car are available between the airport and the ship/hotel on the day the cruise or cruise-tour begins, and between the ship/hotel and the airport on the day the cruise or cruise-tour ends, for guests whose flights fall within our published Transfer Guidelines.

Transfer Guidelines: Please visit our Arrivals, Departures & Transfers page to view the flight arrival and departure times that meet our transfer guidelines. If your flight arrangements arrive/depart outside of these parameters, you must make your own transfer arrangements. Guests making their own flight arrangements must provide their flight details to Uniworld no later than forty-five (45) days prior to departure to schedule their transfers. Uniworld will not be responsible for missed transfers due to delayed or cancelled flights, or for missed cruise/trip days, or for extra costs resulting from the foregoing.

ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS

Baggage Fees, Baggage and Personal Belongings: Uniworld allows one (1) suitcase, one (1) carry-on bag, and one (1) personal bag (handbag, computer case, etc.) per person onboard our ships and motor coaches. Airlines may have additional baggage restrictions and may impose additional fees for checked baggage and/or excess baggage (visit: iflybags.com). Additional taxes and surcharges may be collected by foreign government and non-government entities. Keep an eye on your baggage—it is your responsibility throughout the trip. Uniworld is not responsible for loss, theft, or damage to baggage and/or personal belongings at any time during the cruise, or on included transfers and other transportation. We recommend Comprehensive International Travel Insurance is obtained by all travellers to provide cover for any lost, stolen or damaged baggage.

Flights included as part of the cruise-tour itinerary: Should your Uniworld itinerary include one or more flights within the region visited as part of your cruise-tour itinerary, such flights will be in economy class. Should passengers’ baggage exceed the airline’s limit, excess baggage fees may be levied and will be the passengers’ responsibility to pay (visit: iflybags.com).

Check-In and Check-Out Times: Please note that standard check-in and check-out times will apply regardless of flight schedules or transfer arrangements.

  • Arrivals: On the day of embarkation your stateroom will be ready after 3:00pm. Guests who embark prior to 3:00pm can wait in one of the public areas onboard. For itineraries beginning at a hotel, your room will be ready after the hotel’s standard check-in time. We are unable to request early check-ins.
  • Departures: On the day of disembarkation you must vacate your stateroom by 8:00am. Guests with flights departing later in the day may wait onboard in one of the public areas until 1:00pm or later, depending on the sailing schedule. For itineraries ending at a hotel, you must vacate your room by the hotel’s standard check-out time. We are unable to request late check-outs.

 

TRAVEL DOCUMENTS

Mandatory Passenger Registration: Uniworld Guests are required to register for their cruise at my.Uniworld.com. There you can provide the following necessary information:

  • Your personal details, including your email address and phone number.
  • Your emergency contact info and travel insurance details, just in case we need it.
  • Any dietary, medical or other special requirements you may have.

Documents: Provided full payment has been received on time and registration is completed, travel documents will be available to download in electronic format 21 days prior to travel from my.Uniworld.com. Here, you’ll also find information about your cruise such as the point of embarkation, your accommodations, and answers to a host of FAQs.

Passport/Visa: A valid passport is required to travel on all Uniworld programs. Passports must be valid for at least six (6) months after the scheduled return date of the trip. You should check with your travel agent or the South African Consulate Service for information regarding necessary documentation. Non South African citizens must check with the appropriate consular office for entry requirements pertaining to your trip.

Any visa(s) or other documentation required for a particular itinerary is the sole responsibility of the guest. Obtaining and carrying these documents is your sole responsibility. Uniworld will not be responsible for advising and/or obtaining required travel documentation for any passenger, or for any delays, damages and/or losses, including missed portions of your trip, related to improper travel documentation. Entry to another country may be refused even if the required information and travel documents are complete.

 

Travel Insurance Recommendation: We strongly encourage you to purchase travel protection when traveling with Uniworld. Should you choose to travel on Uniworld without travel insurance coverage you will need to acknowledge your agreement to take full responsibility for all expenses (trip interruption, trip delay, medical expenses, quarantine expenses and emergency evacuation/repatriation) that may arise while traveling with Uniworld. Your cruise documents will not be released until the insurance acknowledgement section of the Passenger Information Form found on "My Uniworld" has been completed. If you do not currently have travel insurance, please contact Uniworld or your travel advisor as soon as possible to discuss your options.

Travel Protection Plan: Uniworld makes every effort to ensure that your trip is safe and enjoyable. However, situations beyond our control may occur. Also, keep in mind that your medical aid plan coverage for a stay outside South Africa may be limited. We recommend you obtain a travel protection plan.

Itinerary Changes: You can count on the value of Uniworld’s experience and regional knowledge to make sure you enjoy your cruise or cruise/tour even when conditions beyond our control occur. The very nature of a river, its sources, and networks of bridges and locks, means that there will be times when weather or other conditions in a region require Uniworld to make adjustments and/or modifications to an itinerary. Although every effort will be made to keep itineraries, vessels, and hotels as they are shown in the brochure, Uniworld reserves the right to substitute itineraries, hotels or vessels. In such cases, we will do everything we can to make sure the locations visited, the excursions taken and the hotels or vessels offered are similar to the ones originally planned. Any changes to itineraries will not result in eligibility for a refund. Itineraries are subject to change without notice and may need to be altered specifically because of water levels, wind factors, or other conditions.

Extensions/Land Tours: Uniworld reserves the right to reschedule and/or cancel land extensions or land tours if the minimum number of participants (20 people) is not met or for safety reasons. If you, as the Passenger, choose to cancel your pre- or post-cruise extension one hundred and nineteen (119) days or less before departure, then please refer to the Cancellation Policy section for the applicable cancellation policy and penalties that will be applied.

Advanced, Cancelled, or Delayed Sailing: Uniworld reserves the right to cancel, advance, postpone or modify scheduled departure, return or itinerary dates, as well as locations, events and schedules, and may, but is not obligated to, substitute, vary, alter, reschedule, cancel and/or relocate any accommodations, vessels, modes of transportation and other aspects of the holiday. Uniworld is authorized to take these actions due to causes or circumstances of any kind or nature beyond Uniworld’s control, or causes or circumstances within Uniworld’s control that Uniworld deems to make such actions appropriate. Uniworld will not be liable for cancellation, delay, rescheduling or other adjustment or impact to a departure or itinerary, or other aspects of the holiday brought about due to force majeure or other circumstance beyond its control that prevents or interferes with any aspect of the cruise-tour, also including governmental and administrative actions. Uniworld is not responsible for other travel arrangements affected due to our cancellations or changes and is not liable for any cancellation or change costs or penalties incurred on other travel arrangements, including air tickets.

Stateroom Changes: If due to unexpected technical or other unforeseen circumstances, it becomes necessary to change a guest’s stateroom onboard, any change to stateroom category will result in eligibility for a refund equal to the fare difference between the category booked and the category or relocation.

Security: Security is a major concern to all of us and the situation globally is constantly changing. Events around the world, coupled with the “Travel Advisories” put out by various governments, may at times necessitate changes to the accommodations and itinerary or even trip cancellation. You must accept these risks involved in travel to any country that may experience security difficulties and accept responsibility for your own travel decisions.

Health and Mobility: The Company strives to provide a safe, enjoyable, and memorable travel experience for all passengers, and has therefore put the following policies in place:

  • All guests must ensure they are medically and physically fit for travel.
  • Passengers are required to advise the Company at time of booking of any physical, medical, or other special needs that require accommodation. After the time of booking, should a Passenger develop a physical or medical condition that requires accommodation, the Passenger is required to advise the Company.
  • The Company may impose health and safety requirements necessary for the safe operation of the cruise-tour, and for the wellbeing of our Passengers and crew. The Company may also exclude an individual from participating in a tour or activity if that individual’s participation poses a direct threat to health or safety. To stop the spread of contagious illnesses, the Company or local authorities may require the isolation or quarantine of Passengers. These measures will not result in the eligibility for a refund of unused features or services.
  • The Company welcomes Passengers with special needs or disabilities, however please note that the Company does not provide personal medical or mobility devices (such as wheelchairs, hearing aids, or prescription eye glasses) or services of a personal nature (such as pushing a wheelchair or assistance in eating, toileting, or dressing). A companion capable of providing such assistance must accompany any Passenger who requires services of a personal nature.
  • The Company does not employ medical personnel. Any necessary medical attention will be provided by a local facility at the passenger’s expense. The Company is not responsible or liable for any losses or costs incurred as a result of medical services obtained while on tour, or for the quality of the care or services received.
  • Passengers should be aware some tours include rough terrain, extensive walking over cobblestone streets, uneven pavement, stairs, and locations which may not be easily accessible or accessible by wheelchair. During the tour, the Company may make arrangements with carriers, hotels, and other independent suppliers to provide travel services. These parties are independent entities over which the Company has no control. Accommodations on international tours may differ from those in your home country. The Company cannot guarantee disability access or accommodations for passengers travelling on international tours.
