How do book now, pay later options for tours work?
Most tour companies let you secure your tour date and price at the time of booking with a deposit. The deposit’s usually not refundable, but can sometimes be used towards another tour or transferred to a friend as long as you’re within its cancellation window. We recommend checking the terms and conditions before checking out, to ensure you’re up-to-date on the deets.
Bottom line
Booking a tour with an initial deposit can be a good option for travel junkies who need a bit more time to save up the funds — just keep in mind that you’ll need to pay in full by the deadline, or risk losing your reservation. Keep an eye on our travel coupons, deals and discounts for ways to save money on your next getaway.
No, tour companies won’t check your credit when you send in a deposit. However, if you use a financing provider like Affirm to fund your travels, it will likely run a credit check before loaning you money.
Under these policies, you can change your flight once without any fees, as long as you travel within the departure dates specified by the individual airline policy.
