TRIP PLANNING POLICY / PROCESS

 

At Marianatha Tours, we design thoughtfully curated travel experiences for individuals, families, 

parish communities, and leadership groups.


To ensure a seamless and efficient planning process, we have implemented a Professional Trip Planning Fee Policy. 

This allows us to provide customized recommendations aligned with your travel goals, timeline, and budget.


Step 1: Submit a Travel Planning Request

Travelers are invited to complete our Travel Planning Service Request Form, 

which gathers essential information required to begin designing your travel experience, including:

  • Destination(s) 
  • Preferred travel dates
  • Number of travelers 
  • Estimated budget per person 
  • Travel purpose (e.g., leisure, pilgrimage, leadership retreat) 
  • Preferred travel style or experience 
  • Passport citizenship and documentation requirements 
  • Milestone celebrations (if applicable)

 

Submission of this form does not initiate itinerary planning services.

Step 2: Professional Planning Fee

Once your request has been reviewed, Marianatha Tours will determine 

the applicable professional planning fee based on the type and complexity of travel requested.

Planning fees are required prior to initiating:

The planning fee is:

  • Is non-refundable

  • Includes one (1) revision after the initial itinerary is submitted
