It is payable within 7 days of the confirmation invoice. The final balance is due 75 days before departure. Transfers to another tour more than 75 days out cost AUD 100 (or equivalent) per person. Prices are shown in AUD.

For services sold as principal: 75 days or more before departure, loss of deposit; 45-74 days, 30% of the booking value; 30-44 days, 50%; under 30 days, 100% less any direct costs Sundowners does not incur.
