Tour Costs

A non-refundable deposit of $800 per person is required when making a booking, together with a completed booking form. The balance of tour costs is payable 90 days prior to departure as per the terms and conditions of the tour. Payment is either by Visa, MasterCard and American Express or by direct bank credit to the Australian Farmers Travel CBA trust account.

As the tour has been designed as a business trip that includes on-farm and technical visits the cost may well qualify as a tax deductible expense and in this regard you should have a word with your accountant and/or your financial adviser. Your tour leader will maintain a detailed daily diary and at the conclusion of the tour send you a report for you to submit with your income tax return. However, it is not all work and no play as each tour includes leisure time and sightseeing to provide a well-rounded itinerary.

Credit Card Travel Insurance

Credit Cards are designed to make life easier. From helping to free up your cash flow to earning you rewards points for virtually every dollar you spend. But did you know that many Credit Cards, like those offered by American Express, Visa and MasterCard even offer peace of mind by including a range of travel insurance benefits? Depending on the Card you hold, some Credit Cards provide complimentary travel insurance, when you use your Card to book and pay for your tour. Terms, conditions and exclusions may apply (such as maximum age limits, pre-existing medical condition) so you should check with your credit card provider.
