Cancellation requests made within 36 hours of the tour date/time cannot be refunded or transferred.
Because of the new rules made by cooperative responsable for Colosseum tickets, including nominative tickets for Under the Moon and Dungeons tour, these two tours are not 100% refundable even before 72h, since the nominative tickets need to be bought in advance and are lost in case of cancellation. The cost of the tickets will not be refunded, the cost of the tour yes.
