What's included

Airfare? Check. Group Airbnb with private room and ensuite bathroom? Check. Daily adventures, local transportation, tickets, and your personal trip guide who actually shows up every day? Check, check, and check. We handle the planning so you can handle the fun.

Travel Insurance

Highly recommended. Coverage for trip cancellation and emergency medical expenses can be useful. You’ll sleep better, and your wallet will thank you if the unexpected pops up. Search on google for "travel insurance" or we can recommend a few options for you.

Before We Travel

What's not included

Your shopping sprees, food, drinks, gourmet “I deserve this” treats, tips for local guides, travel insurance, European city tourist fees, and baggage fees aren’t included. Basically, we cover the essentials—you cover the splurges.

Double Occupancy

Prices are based on two guests sharing a room. Flying solo or want your own space? We can quote a single-room option for you.

Kids & Rooms

Kids are welcome! Anyone under 18 must share a room with their parent or legal guardian. Most rooms fit up to four people. On some trips If you add a 3rd or 4th traveler to your room, we apply a discount for each of them. Check that trip's details for more information.

Luggage Allowance

Due to train travel, we recommend one carry-on size suitcase and one personal bag per traveler. Keep in mind, in Venice there are no cars, so you will have to walk with your bags up and down stairs, bridges, and on old cobblestone paved roads. Travelers who choose to bring larger checked bags must be prepared to manage them independently, especially on trains and uneven terrain. You will be responsible for all baggage fees as well which can sometimes be as high as $150 each way.

Passport & Visas

Your passport must be valid for at least six months beyond your travel dates—many countries refuse entry otherwise. If your destination requires a visa, we’ll help you understand the process (but you’re responsible for completing any required applications). For Italy, US citizens do not require a visa at this time.

Group Size & Activity Level

We travel in small groups—usually 6–8 travelers—so it feels like an experience, not a parade. Expect moderate daily walking, stairs, uneven terrain, and the usual European cobblestones doing their thing. If mobility or medical needs are a concern, contact us before booking to make sure this itinerary fits your abilities.

Skipping Activities

Want to sleep in, slow down, or go off-script for the day? Great. Just know the package price stays the same—activities are bundled, not à la carte.

Payments

How You Can Pay

We accept all major credit cards and ACH.

Your Money's Safety: Trust Account

Tricdhis Hideaways is a registered California Seller of Travel (CST 2168103-40). Registration as a seller of travel does not constitute approval by the state of California. All customer funds are held in a designated travel trust account and can only be used to pay for your travel services. This is required by California law and protects your payments.

California Extras

If you are physically located in California at the time you pay, you may be eligible for TCRF reimbursement if a registered Seller of Travel fails to provide contracted services. If you are outside California when you book, TCRF does not apply.
This distinction is required by state law. See the LEGAL FAQ for complete details.

Contract Transparency

All payment deadlines, cancellation deadlines, and relevant dates will be included on your original contract and invoice. That way, you always know exactly when payments and cancellation deadlines fall.

When is full payment due?

Full Payment is due at least 60 days before departure. Please see our cancellation FAQ regarding trips that are not paid in full in time.

Monthly Payment Plans

Monthly payment plans are offered at no extra cost but must be paid on time.

  • 7-day grace period for each monthly payment

  • $25 late fee if payment is not received within 7 days

  • Automatic cancellation after 14 days of non-payment

  • Deposits are non-refundable if a booking is canceled for non-payment

Cancellations

What Happens if We Cancel Your Trip

Upon cancellation of travel services where the passenger is not at fault and did not cancel in violation of any terms previously disclosed and agreed to, all payments made for services not provided will be refunded promptly in accordance with California law.

Payment Default

If full payment is not received by 60 days before departure, you will be given a 15 day grace period to pay the balance in full, extending the final due date to 45 days before departure. After the grace period, if the full payment is still not received then the booking is considered canceled; you will forfeit the full deposit per person, and you will receive an immediate refund minus the cost of any non-refundable purchases.

If you Cancel:

Your refund depends on timing and whether non-refundable purchases have been made in your name (such as airfare, some hotels, or certain tours).

  1. Cancellations made within 30 days of booking are subject to a per person cancellation fee (equal to half of the deposit). Any remaining balance will be refunded.

  2. Cancellations made after 30 days of booking result in forfeiture of the full deposit per person.

  3. In all cases, the traveler is responsible for the actual cost of any non-refundable travel services (including but not limited to airfare, hotels, or tours) that have already been purchased on their behalf and cannot be recovered from the supplier.

  4. Any refund issued will be reduced by any non-recoverable payment processing costs incurred when accepting the traveler’s payment.

Contract Transparency

All payment deadlines, cancellation deadlines, and relevant dates will be included on your original contract and invoice. That way, you always know exactly when payments and cancellation deadlines fall.
