This version supersedes all previous refund schedules.<\/p><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\">Clarity is part of hospitality. This page sets out exactly what happens if your plans change &mdash; in defined figures you know before you pay, not afterwards.<\/p><p style=\"margin:0 0 20px\">Please read it before confirming your booking.

Who we are<\/h2><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\">Our journeys are marketed and managed by <strong>Moratra LLC<\/strong>, registered in the State of Wyoming, United States (Filing ID 2026-002017761), and operated on the ground in Morocco by our partner operator <strong>ALLOTRIPS SARL<\/strong> (Commercial Register 140897, Commercial Court of Marrakech &middot; ICE 003372765000012).<\/p><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\">The version of this policy in force <strong>at the time you complete your booking<\/strong> applies to that booking. Later updates do not affect bookings already confirmed.<\/p><h2 style=\"font-family:'Playfair Display',Georgia,serif;font-size:23px;color:#0d9488;margin:34px 0 12px\">2. How booking &amp; payment work<\/h2><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\">We operate two booking types. Yours is determined and confirmed to you in writing before you pay.<\/p><p style=\"margin:0 0 10px\"><strong>A. Deposit bookings.<\/strong> This applies to:<\/p><ul style=\"margin:0 0 14px;padding-left:22px\"><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\">Tous <strong>multi-day journeys<\/strong><\/li><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\">Tous <strong>private tours and private bookings<\/strong> &mdash; any trip or service reserved exclusively for you or your group<\/li><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\">Tous <strong>customized and tailor-made itineraries<\/strong><\/li><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\">Any booking that includes a night in a <a style=\"color:#0d9488\" href=\"https:\/\/moratra.com\/fr\/sahara-desert-morocco-tours\/\">campement dans le d\u00e9sert<\/a>, a <strong>private 4&times;4<\/strong>, or a <strong>private guide<\/strong><\/li><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\">All bookings during <strong>peak periods<\/strong><\/li><\/ul><ul style=\"margin:0 0 14px;padding-left:22px\"><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\">A <strong>acompte de 50 %<\/strong> of the trip price confirms your booking<\/li><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\">le <strong>remaining 50% balance is due 5 days before departure<\/strong><\/li><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\">Separate payment links per traveller are available on request<\/li><\/ul><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\">We send the balance payment link 10 days before departure, with a reminder at 7 days. <strong>Failure to pay the balance by its due date is treated as a cancellation by you<\/strong>, and the cancellation charges in force on that date apply.<\/p><p style=\"margin:0 0 10px\"><strong>B. Pay-on-arrival bookings.<\/strong> Limited to shared day <a style=\"color:#0d9488\" href=\"https:\/\/moratra.com\/fr\/activities-in-marrakech\/\">activit\u00e9s<\/a>, day tours and transfers, outside peak periods, and provided they include no private or customized service.<\/p><ul style=\"margin:0 0 14px;padding-left:22px\"><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\">No deposit.

The 24-hour window<\/h2><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\">If you cancel <strong>within 24 hours<\/strong> of paying your deposit, your deposit is refunded in full, less bank and transfer fees. This window applies <strong>automatically by time<\/strong>, and requires no action or notice from either party.<\/p><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\"><strong>After 24 hours, the deposit is non-refundable.<\/strong> From that point we begin securing your arrangements with our suppliers, and those commitments are not recoverable.<\/p><p style=\"margin:0 0 10px\"><strong>The 24-hour window does not apply to:<\/strong><\/p><ul style=\"margin:0 0 14px;padding-left:22px\"><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\">Bookings made <strong>fewer than 21 days<\/strong> before departure<\/li><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\">Bookings falling within <strong>peak periods<\/strong> (section 4)<\/li><\/ul><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\">For these, arrangements are secured immediately on receipt of the deposit, and the deposit is non-refundable from the moment of payment.<\/p><h2 style=\"font-family:'Playfair Display',Georgia,serif;font-size:23px;color:#0d9488;margin:34px 0 12px\">4.

These follow the Islamic calendar, shift each year, and the exact dates applying to your journey are confirmed to you in writing at the time of booking.<\/li><\/ul><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\">During peak periods, camps, riads and vehicles must be secured immediately and irrevocably. Bookings in these periods always require a deposit and are not eligible for the 24-hour window or for pay-on-arrival.<\/p><h2 style=\"font-family:'Playfair Display',Georgia,serif;font-size:23px;color:#0d9488;margin:34px 0 12px\">5.

They are not subject to later calculation or line-by-line review.<\/p><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\"><strong>The charges apply whatever the reason for cancellation<\/strong>, including illness, visa refusal, flight cancellation and family emergencies. These are precisely the situations travel insurance is designed to cover (section 11).<\/p><h2 style=\"font-family:'Playfair Display',Georgia,serif;font-size:23px;color:#0d9488;margin:34px 0 12px\">6. Why the deposit is non-refundable<\/h2><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\">We work in Morocco with a network of local providers: desert camps, camel operators, 4&times;4 owners, drivers, guides and family-run riads. Securing these arrangements &mdash; particularly in the Sahara and during peak periods &mdash; requires immediate and irrevocable commitment, <strong>most often settled in cash<\/strong>, in line with how the sector operates in Morocco.<\/p><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\">These commitments are spent the moment your journey is secured, and they are not returned to us when a booking is cancelled.<\/p><div style=\"background:#fff;border-left:4px solid #0d9488;padding:18px 22px;border-radius:0 10px 10px 0;margin:0 0 14px\"><p style=\"margin:0\">Moratra is not required to produce invoices, receipts or any third-party documentation as a condition of applying the cancellation charges set out on this page, as these charges are pre-agreed contractual amounts and not a claim for reimbursement of expenses.<\/p><\/div><h2 style=\"font-family:'Playfair Display',Georgia,serif;font-size:23px;color:#0d9488;margin:34px 0 12px\">7. Exceptional circumstances<\/h2><p style=\"margin:0 0 10px\">We treat every case fairly. In documented exceptional circumstances, Moratra <strong>may<\/strong> &mdash; entirely at its own discretion, without obligation, and without setting any precedent &mdash; offer one of the following:<\/p><ul style=\"margin:0 0 14px;padding-left:22px\"><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\">A <strong>travel credit<\/strong> for part of the amount paid, valid for twelve months<\/li><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\">A <strong>date transfer<\/strong> to another available departure<\/li><\/ul><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\">We prefer these to a cash refund, because they preserve the value of what you have paid rather than losing it.<\/p><h2 style=\"font-family:'Playfair Display',Georgia,serif;font-size:23px;color:#0d9488;margin:34px 0 12px\">8. If we cancel<\/h2><p style=\"margin:0 0 10px\">If Moratra cancels a confirmed booking for any reason other than force majeure, you choose:<\/p><ul style=\"margin:0 0 14px;padding-left:22px\"><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\">A <strong>remboursement int\u00e9gral<\/strong> of everything you have paid, or<\/li><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\"><strong>Free rescheduling<\/strong> to another available date of equivalent value<\/li><\/ul><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\">In cases of force majeure beyond our control &mdash; natural disasters, civil unrest, border closures, epidemics, extreme weather, government decisions &mdash; we will do everything we can to reschedule your journey or issue a credit for the amount paid, less commitments already made to our suppliers that cannot be recovered. For weather-dependent activities such as hot-air balloon flights, safety may require rescheduling; if no alternative date works for you, any amount paid for the affected service is refunded in full.<\/p><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\">In all cases, Moratra is not responsible for incidental expenses you may have incurred in connection with your booking, such as flights, visas, vaccinations or insurance.<\/p><h2 style=\"font-family:'Playfair Display',Georgia,serif;font-size:23px;color:#0d9488;margin:34px 0 12px\">9. Changes to your booking<\/h2><ul style=\"margin:0 0 14px;padding-left:22px\"><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\"><strong>Date change more than 21 days before departure:<\/strong> free once, subject to availability and any difference in price<\/li><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\"><strong>Date change fewer than 21 days before departure:<\/strong> treated as a cancellation; the charges in section 5 apply<\/li><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\"><strong>Name changes:<\/strong> free up to 7 days before departure<\/li><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\"><strong>Reduction in group size:<\/strong> the per-person price is recalculated on the new group size, and the cancellation charges apply to the withdrawing traveller<\/li><\/ul><h2 style=\"font-family:'Playfair Display',Georgia,serif;font-size:23px;color:#0d9488;margin:34px 0 12px\">10. Unused services &amp; non-refundable components<\/h2><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\">Services included in your itinerary that you do not use &mdash; a meal, a night, an activity, an excursion &mdash; are <strong>neither refunded nor exchanged<\/strong>, whether due to late arrival, early departure or a change of plan during the journey.<\/p><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\">The following are non-refundable in all circumstances, regardless of when you cancel: official permits, domestic flight tickets, special event tickets, advance hotel payments during peak periods, and bank transfer fees. Discounted packages explicitly marked &ldquo;non-refundable&rdquo; at the time of purchase are excluded from refunds, as stated on their offer page before you pay.<\/p><h2 style=\"font-family:'Playfair Display',Georgia,serif;font-size:23px;color:#0d9488;margin:34px 0 12px\">11. Travel insurance<\/h2><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\"><strong>We strongly recommend<\/strong> arranging comprehensive travel insurance when you confirm your booking, covering trip cancellation, interruption, medical care, evacuation and lost baggage.<\/p><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\">The charges in section 5 apply regardless of the reason for cancellation. Insurance is how you recover your money in the circumstances where we cannot.<\/p><h2 style=\"font-family:'Playfair Display',Georgia,serif;font-size:23px;color:#0d9488;margin:34px 0 12px\">12. How to cancel<\/h2><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\">Cancellation must reach us <strong>in writing<\/strong> \u00e0 <strong>Info@moratra.com<\/strong>, or by WhatsApp on <strong>+212 727-541683<\/strong>.<\/p><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\">A cancellation takes effect <strong>from the moment we receive your notice<\/strong>, in Morocco local time (GMT+1). Verbal notice and calls not confirmed in writing are not taken into account when calculating charges. We acknowledge every cancellation request in writing within 24 hours.<\/p><h2 style=\"font-family:'Playfair Display',Georgia,serif;font-size:23px;color:#0d9488;margin:34px 0 12px\">13. Refund processing<\/h2><ul style=\"margin:0 0 14px;padding-left:22px\"><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\">Amounts due are processed within <strong>5 \u00e0 10 jours ouvrables<\/strong> of the cancellation being confirmed<\/li><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\">Refunds are issued to the <strong>original payment method<\/strong> and to the original payer only<\/li><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\">Bank transfer fees are deducted from the amount refunded<\/li><li style=\"margin:0 0 8px\">Refunds are made in the original currency of payment; we do not compensate for exchange-rate differences between the date of payment and the date of refund<\/li><\/ul><h2 style=\"font-family:'Playfair Display',Georgia,serif;font-size:23px;color:#0d9488;margin:34px 0 12px\">14. Disputes<\/h2><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\">If you disagree with an amount or with how this policy has been applied, <strong>contact us first<\/strong>. We undertake to respond within five business days, and the overwhelming majority of cases are resolved amicably at this stage.<\/p><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\">By accepting these terms, you agree to contact us before initiating any dispute procedure with your bank or financial institution. A bank dispute raised in respect of an amount properly due under this policy constitutes a breach of our agreement.<\/p><h2 style=\"font-family:'Playfair Display',Georgia,serif;font-size:23px;color:#0d9488;margin:34px 0 12px\">15. Governing law<\/h2><p style=\"margin:0 0 14px\">This policy and any dispute arising from it are governed by the laws of the Kingdom of Morocco, under the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Marrakech, Morocco.<\/p><div style=\"background:#fff;border-left:4px solid #0d9488;padding:18px 22px;border-radius:0 10px 10px 0;margin:28px 0 0\"><p style=\"margin:0 0 8px\"><strong>Moratra<\/strong><br>Info@moratra.com &middot; +212 727-541683<\/p><p style=\"margin:0;color:#6b7280;font-size:14px\">The English version of this policy prevails in the event of any difference of interpretation between language versions.
