You can find all the details of our payment and refunds policy here, but here is a summary of the payment schedule and methods to pay for easy and secure payments.

Deposit Payment: To confirm your booking, we require a deposit that is 20% of the total tour cost for private tours or 100 to 250 USD per person if you’re joining a scheduled group tour. (Please note, for Pamir Guaranteed Departure tours, full payment is required at the time of booking to reserve your seat). We will send you a link to pay this deposit via WeTravel (a safe and secure online payment system) after we finalize and confirm your itinerary. You will get a confirmation after paying the deposit.

Remaining balance: This can be paid just before the tour begins or when you arrive at the start of the tour. You can choose to pay by one of the following methods:

Online in advance via WeTravel. We will send you a link with the final payment amount and you can choose to pay by credit card (3+ % charge) or bank account (1-2% charge).
By credit card in our office in Osh or Bishkek with a 4% charge.
By cash in the Visit Alay office in Osh or Bishkek. Please bring new large denomination banknotes (50s or 100s) of USD since our banks offer lower rates for smaller banknotes. Note: some ATM machines in the big cities of Bishkek or Osh offer the option to withdraw USD.

In summary, pay a deposit to lock in the trip and then pay the rest by whichever method is easiest for you – cash or credit card on the ground or online in advance. We’ll confirm all payments via receipt.
