If you wish to cancel your trip, you must complete and submit our cancellation form. If you have any questions prior to cancelling, please contact us and we will be happy to help.
Since we incur costs in cancelling or amending your travel arrangements, cancellation or amendment charges may apply. Please check our booking conditions for a full list of these charges.
If the reason for your cancellation or change is covered under the terms of your insurance policy, you may be able to reclaim charges. We therefore recommend that you secure appropriate insurance as soon as you have booked your holiday.
Most of our trips can be updated to suit a variety of accessibility needs. All of our journeys are on train, bus, or ferry routes, making it easier to get around and we try to choose hotels that are close to stations or centrally-located where possible.
If you have specific requirements, our expert Trip Design team can build a custom trip for you. Please contact us about your particular requirements.
We’re always looking for ways to improve accessibility. If you have any suggestions, please share them with us at hello@byway.travel.
