“Ali Travel's service is excellent, and the advisors at every store are professional. We are two seniors and have travelled with them to Cuba, Yellowknife, the Dominican Republic, Cancún and China — every experience was fantastic.…”
“The whole trip went very smoothly. Canace was very professional — she managed the route and timing well and solved any issue promptly, which took a load off our minds. The pacing was just right: relaxed, not exhausting. A very go…”
“Ali Travel was great and professional, highly recommend! Their pricing was competitive and they had a lot of variety to choose from. I look forward to booking with them again for my next vacation!”

Reserve online and pay the CAD $300 per-person deposit right away (unless a different amount is stated for this tour) — that secures your booking. We then confirm availability, usually within 24 hours, and update your booking status — if we cannot confirm your reservation, your deposit is refunded in full. The balance is due 30 days before departure. The deposit option applies to bookings made more than 60 days before departure — within 60 days of departure, full payment is required at booking.
Price adjustments (Travel Industry Act, 2002 — O. Reg. 26/05): increases resulting from retail sales or federal tax changes excepted, if the total price rises by more than 7% you may cancel for a full refund — and no price increase is permitted after you have paid in full.
Card details are entered directly into Moneris, Canada’s largest payment processor — your card number never reaches our servers.
Cancellation charges, from the date we receive written notice:
Once airline tickets have been issued, the air portion is non-refundable regardless of the schedule above.
