Pay close attention to our subsequent communications, where we will inform You about the progress and status of your Purchase Request.

4. WHAT DOCUMENTATION WILL I NEED FOR TRAVEL?
You have the duty to responsibly inform yourself about the legal and/or migratory and/or health requirements that You or the people traveling with You may need to travel as planned (the "Travel Documentation"). Check in advance the entry conditions for the destination country and/or transit, special visa and/or passport conditions, driving licenses, vaccines, permission for minors, or other document requirements, both for the destination countries and transit countries, even if it is not necessary to leave the airport. If required and not available, make the necessary arrangements to obtain it in advance. Requirements may vary depending on the destination country and/or transit and according to your nationality and/or residence and/or the documentation with which You travel. Remember that it is your responsibility to comply with all entry and/or transit requirements and/or documentation required by immigration, customs, and/or health authorities of the destination country/s and/or transit. We advise You to check all necessary requirements with the respective Embassy or Consulate before booking and departing. For more information visit:
https://www.iatatravelcentre.com/. Check the expiration date of the documentation in advance and note that, in some countries, the expiration date must not be earlier than six months from the arrival in foreign territory.
In the case of traveling with minors under 18, in addition to the enabled travel document (National Identification Document or Passport), they will need authorization according to different considerations:
* If the minor travels with both parents, it will be sufficient for them to prove the relationship through the Civil Registry of Birth, Birth Certificate, or Certificate of Birth (regardless of the date of issue) or the minor's Identification Document, where the filiation data of the parents are stated,
* If he/she travels with only one of his/her parents, in addition to demonstrating the parental relationship with any of the mentioned documents, he/she must accompany the authorization of the absent father/mother, and
* If he/she is the child of minors, he/she will need the authorization of the parents and the permission of one of his/her grandparents. Regardless, review the Travel Documentation required according to the type of transport, the Provider, and the origin and/or destination of the transport, as requirements may vary depending on whether You travel by sea, land, or air and according to each Provider. In the case that the minor/s do/does not travel accompanied by a responsible adult, please review the unaccompanied minor policies of each Provider. For more information visit

5. WILL I HAVE THE RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL?
METALHEAD TOURS informs You that, in accordance with the provisions of Article 47 of Law 1480 of 2011, (Colombian Consumer Statute), the right of withdrawal operates in all contracts for the sale of goods and provision of services through financing systems, sale of timeshares, or sales that use non-traditional or distance methods, which by their nature should not be consumed or have not begun to be executed before five (5) days. To exercise this right and receive the amount paid, without discounts or retentions, You must, within the five (5) days following the purchase transaction, notify METALHEAD TOURS of your decision to do so, through electronic means or similar. METALHEAD TOURS will handle the presentation and follow-up of your request to the tourist service provider, and - if it has been paid - it will be the tourist service provider who must directly proceed with the refund of your money, through a credit, a chargeback to your credit card, or the return of the amount paid, according to the most convenient method of refund. If the payment had been made by bank transfer, METALHEAD TOURS will require your data again to process the refund by this means.
6. ONCE A PURCHASE REQUEST IS CONFIRMED, CAN I CANCEL IT? IF I DO, ARE THERE ASSOCIATED COSTS?:
If you request a cancellation outside the deadlines and procedures explained in the previous point, METALHEAD TOURS will carry out the presentation and follow-up of your request, but the final decision will be made by the Tourist Service Provider. The procedure and special conditions governing changes or cancellations in a reservation confirmed by you are determined by the Tourist Service Providers, who may establish fines or total penalties applicable to the requested changes. Remember that there are Tourist Services that, at the discretion of the Providers, do not allow changes and/or refunds, or allow them with restrictions and/or penalties, even in cases of illness, strikes, weather phenomena, etc. Remember that each Provider defines their penalties without METALHEAD TOURS intervention or interference.
* It should be clarified that Providers are not obligated to exempt the passenger from the contract conditions, even in documented cases of illness or physical incapacity preventing them from traveling; that is, if the paid fare includes a penalty for modifications/refunds or does not allow changes and/or reimbursement, the Provider can charge these fees or deny the refund of the reservation cost.
* If it is not possible to exempt any service offered by the providers from penalties or changes, METALHEAD TOURS will inform you that it is non-refundable. In case of cancellation of confirmed reservations for any reason, it will not be refunded as it corresponds to a service effectively provided by METALHEAD TOURS. Likewise, in the event that you request the change or cancellation of a Tourist Service, METALHEAD TOURS may charge an additional Management Fee.
* METALHEAD TOURS will not generate refunds. It could be considered in certain cases as credit for future purchase, with a maximum time of 1 (one) natural year, which you will send in writing by email along with the required support. If necessary, you may transfer the contracted services to another passenger, and you must take care of this procedure without fail.
* When you request a change, you are canceling a confirmed reservation and requesting a new one that will be governed by the particular conditions applicable at the time you make the change, so, in addition to the applicable penalties, there may be a fare difference consisting of the value resulting from the difference between the originally paid fare and the new fare according to fare availability at the time of making the change (the "Fare Difference"). Remember that tourist rates are dynamic and depend on variables such as advance purchase, travel dates, and promotions.
7. WHAT HAPPENS IF I DO NOT SHOW UP TO USE A RESERVATION?
If you do not show up to use your reservation on the indicated date and times (or arrive late), it is considered what is known in the tourism market as a No Show, and you will not be entitled to demand a total or partial refund of the amount paid. If you are not going to use your reservation in whole or in part, or if you are going to arrive late to use your reservation, we recommend notifying METALHEAD TOURS in advance to know the applicable restrictions.
