DG Policy
A Deposit towards a DiscoverGidi (known as DG throughout the rest of this statement) trip payment does not guarantee you an automatic spot on the trip.

DG is committed to curating and creating an experience that aligns with the culture and brand of its founders and their business. The DG experience guarantees you positive vibes and energy, throughout your fun, cultural and educational experience. DG therefore reserves the right to terminate your spot on this trip, if your words or actions negatively impact business, do not align with the mission or values of the brand, or deviates from and may potentially deteriorate the experience of others on the trip. In this event, you will be notified by DG of their decision, you will receive a full reimbursement for your DG ticket and you will be removed from all trip communications. DG will not be responsible for any trip related cost you have incurred before your termination.

Covid 19 Cancellation
As stated on the home page banner, there are no refunds, unless the country we are going to closes its borders due to COVID-19. We ask that you take the necessary precautions to remain prudent and safe before traveling with us so that you do not contract COVID-19! In the event that you do test positive for COVID-19 resulting in your inability to travel, we will not be able to issue you a full refund. However, in certain cases we will offer a partial credit towards another trip, as we have paid vendors that will not refund us due to your absence

Chargebacks
