FAQ
WHAT ABOUT THE ITINERARY?
Once your payment is received in full, you will receive the itinerary by email. On these sacred journeys, we are being guided by Spirit and changes to the itinerary may occur. We are learning to trust and flow. Wherever possible, Sacred Travels will adhere to the itinerary.
WHAT ABOUT VISAS?
If you are an Australian citizen, and want to visit the United States, you will need to apply for an ESTA American Visa Waiver (certain requirements must be met). You can do this online at https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov/esta/ If you are of another nationality, please check this website to ascertain whether you are eligible for this Visa Waiver program. Please contact your embassy to enquire about Visa Requirements for Britain, Australia and Bali.
WHAT IS ACCOMMODATION LIKE?
Accommodation is based on twin-share. If you need to have your own room, there will be an additional cost to subsidise the difference in room costs where available. Sacred Travels will do our best to match you with someone suitable of the same gender. If this is not possible, you will be responsible for paying the additional single occupancy supplement. As we are travelling to so many different areas, most of our accommodation will be 4-star, some 3-star accommodation (Hawaii oceanfront) and 5-star.
TRAVEL INSURANCE
We recommend Comprehensive Travel Insurance to cover you against personal accident, death, medical expenses, emergency repatriation, personal liability, loss of luggage and personal effects, with a minimum coverage of US$200,000.
We also recommend Trip Cancellation Insurance .
DO I GET FREE TIME?
Yes, we factor in down time almost every day to regroup and integrate your experiences
WHAT IF I ARRIVE LATE?
If we have moved to a different location by the time you arrive, it will be your responsibility to ‘catch up’ with the group. If you are late due to unforeseen circumstances, please call the number on your Retreat Info Form which will be sent to you once your deposit has been received.
WHERE WILL I BE STAYING?
Upon registration, you will be provided with accommodation details and contact information.
TIPPING
This is commonplace and expected, especially in the United States. You will be given advice on the recommended amount and who to tip on your Retreat. If you are happy with the service you receive, it means a great deal to those who serve you, when you show your appreciation in this way.
HOW TO PAY
We recommend bringing a mixture of cash, credit and/or debit card, and/or ATM travel card. Visa cards are accepted more widely than the others. You will need this for your extra meals, shopping, tipping, extras like massages.
