One place for everything you need to know about how booking, payment, cancellation, and refunds work with QIMA Travel and Tourism — in 8 clear sections.
Last updated: July 21, 2026
You can request a booking through our website, by phone, or via WhatsApp. Here’s how the process works:
Please double-check all traveler names, dates, and details in your confirmation — these must match official travel documents exactly.
To cancel or modify a confirmed booking, contact our support team (Section 8) with your booking reference number. Requests are reviewed against the terms of the specific package and its suppliers (airlines, hotels, activity providers), since supplier cancellation rules vary by booking.
Our standard cancellation and refund rule is:
| When you cancel | Refund |
|---|---|
| 14 or more days before the departure/travel date | 100% refund of amounts paid to QIMA |
| Less than 14 days before the departure/travel date | Refund amount depends on the specific terms of the airlines, hotels, or other suppliers involved in your booking, which may apply their own cancellation charges. We will always confirm the exact refundable amount with you before finalizing the cancellation. |
Whether a package includes travel insurance, and the value/coverage of that insurance, varies by tour and supplier. Where insurance is included or offered as an add-on, the details (coverage, cost, and refund terms for the insurance portion itself) will be clearly shown on the specific package page and confirmed with you before booking.
Where a package does not include insurance, we recommend travelers arrange independent travel insurance appropriate to their trip.
We are expanding our online payment options to support secure card payments (Visa/Mastercard) directly at checkout. Until that rollout is complete on every package, our team will confirm the accepted payment method with you directly at the time of booking — this may include bank transfer or another approved method.
VisaMastercardBank Transfer
Whichever method applies to your booking, payment instructions and confirmation of receipt will always be provided to you in writing (email or WhatsApp) before your booking is treated as confirmed.
In accordance with the tax regulations of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, our pricing policy is that the price shown for a tour or package is inclusive of 15% Value Added Tax (VAT) and any mandatory service fees, unless a page explicitly states otherwise. The price you agree to at booking is the price you pay — no VAT is added as a surprise at checkout.
Optional extras (upgrades, additional excursions, travel insurance) are quoted and agreed separately, in addition to your base package price.
Once your booking is confirmed, you will receive a booking document (confirmation/voucher) electronically by email and/or WhatsApp. This document includes your booking reference number, a summary of the service booked, the total price paid, and a link to the cancellation and refund terms that apply to your booking.
Please keep this document accessible during your trip, as suppliers (hotels, transport providers) may request it at check-in.
