Chilled boxes are dispatched Monday and Tuesday to ensure delivery by Friday.

How will I know when my Box will be delivered? 

Once we have dispatched your order you will receive an email with a Tracking Number so that you can see where your parcel is at a given time.  Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee a specific date and time for delivery. Currently delivery times may be longer than usual due to the COVID-19 impact on both domestic and international deliveries.  Delivery dates and times vary from country to country.

How long does my order take to get to its destination?

Delivery times in ROI, to NI, Britain and Europe are normally within 1-2 working days.  However, International deliveries may vary depending on the product purchased and the country you wish to have it delivered to. Once on the product page on the online shop you can select the destination country and it will calculate the delivery time.  

What if my delivery is late or does not arrive?

You can contact us at info@goodfoodireland.ie and we will be happy to help.  However, in some cases it might be a speedier process to contact your local depot or access point quoting your Tracking Number.  To view all UPS Access Point locations with its individual opening days and hours please go to the www.ups.com webpage.

It is crucial to ensure the delivery address and phone number are correctly inputted before placing an order. Any failed deliveries through no fault of our own or through no fault of the courier service, for example, wrong address given, refused delivery by the recipient or no one available to receive the package, the purchaser is liable for delivery charges. 

If I purchase a Box for delivery as a gift, will the recipient know who it is from?

When you purchase the Box, you can tick the “Give as a Gift” button and include a personal gift message for the recipient so they know where it has come from.

You can use this notice to reschedule delivery using the options provided.  Or you can choose to have UPS attempt another delivery. They will make up to three delivery attempts. After the third delivery attempt your package may be returned to us.

Why are there two delivery charges if items are going to the one address?

For orders including 2 or more items, we will pack items together for shipping where possible. For safety reasons, some items must be packed in separate boxes, incurring separate delivery charges. We will do our utmost for you to pack gifts together to save on shipping costs but this is not always possible. If you have multiple items please do not hesitate to contact us and we will be happy to advise you on best possible options.

Any additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by the receiver. We have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. Customs policies vary widely from country to country, so you should contact your local customs office for further information.

Booking Acceptance

1.1 A booking is accepted by Vagabond, only when we, or our agent have either received a €100 deposit per person and confirmed your booking by email if your booking is made more than 30 days in advance of your tour departure or when we have received payment in full and confirmed your booking by email if your booking is made less than 30 days before your tour departure. No tickets will be issued until full payment has been received.

1.2 On receipt of payment as detailed above, subject to availability and at our discretion, Vagabond will reserve the client a place on a trip. A contract is only made between the client and Vagabond upon the confirmation of your booking and our communication thereof to either you or our travel agent.

1.3 It is a condition of your booking being accepted that each client signs (or has signed on his behalf if under 18) our waiver of liability, a copy of which will be forwarded to you on booking and which must be signed and presented to your Vagabond Representative at the commencement of your tour. Failure to sign a waiver will result in the client’s booking being treated as having been cancelled by you and we reserve the right to impose the cancellation fees described in this agreement.

Insurance

2.1 The price of your ticket does not cover your travel insurance.

2.2 Vagabond strongly recommends that client’s purchase comprehensive travel insurance cover for cancellation, medical expenses, personal accident, personal luggage, money and public liability, before you travel. Clients should ensure that any activities undertaken during the tour are covered by their travel insurance policy. Please note that some activities may require specific insurance and it is a matter for the client to ascertain this position with their insurer before partaking in any activity. Vagabond reserves the right to refuse admission to a passenger unless the client has arranged appropriate insurance. Vagabond accepts no responsibility for loss or personal damage to personal belongings or liability for personal injury/death.

Cancellation

3.1 Cancellation of a client’s booking must be notified in writing to Vagabond. Cancellation charges are calculated on the day when written notification is received by Vagabond. The table below shows the number of days before departure dates that Vagabond receives written confirmation of cancellation, including any surcharges that will be imposed on the client as a corresponding cancellation charge. Please note that in addition to the tour fare cancellation charges set out below, the client may also incur cancellation fees in respect of any third-party suppliers booked by the client in association with a Vagabond Tour.

We have enacted the following temporary changes to our cancellation policy in light of the Covid-19/Coronavirus situation:

6.2 The ticket must be produced at any time at the request of a Vagabond Representative, and the client may also be asked to produce valid photo identification.

It is a condition of booking that the client must comply with the authority and decisions of the appointed Vagabond representative. If the client does not comply with the Vagabond representative and is not compatible with the general enjoyment and wellbeing of the other members of the tour, Vagabond reserves the right to exclude the client from continuing the tour.

We may require a medical certificate if you have a special condition. We reserve the right in our sole discretion to accept, decline, or remove anyone from a tour (at departure or during the tour) who we judge to be incapable of meeting the tour’s physical demands. You must complete a waiver as detailed above before commencement of the tour confirming your understanding of these circumstances and confirming your physical and medical condition. Please be aware in this regard that participation in each individual activity is a matter for the client on a day-to-day basis during the tour. If you do not want to participate in a particular activity, please let the Vagabond Representative know.

8.5 The client agrees that Vagabond may take photographs and films of the client while on the tour and that these may be used in Vagabond brochures, on our website and/or advertising without obtaining further consent or payment in respect of such photographs or films.

Any claims made after the 28 days period will not be considered by Vagabond. If the client chooses to write to Vagabond via the Internet, please include a home address to reply to in writing.

8.8 If any provision of these terms and conditions is held invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be deemed to be re-written to give effect to the same purpose within the permitted limits of the law.

You expressly waive any right you may have to recover such damages.

8.12 Pets are not allowed on Vagabond or Driftwood tours. If you need to bring a service dog, Vagabond Tours must be notified before you book your tour. Vagabond Tours may not be able to accommodate this request due to accommodation restrictions and considerations of other passengers.

8.13 For people with mobility issues, we would recommend our Driftwood tours. The walks on the Driftwood tours are generally more like strolls and there are no long hikes. They are quite manageable and we would be happy to advise you further as to the suitability of each tour before booking. The vehicles are also lower to the ground and easier to get in and out of. Our mini coaches are not wheelchair accessible so you must be able to get on and off the coach unaided or have someone come on tour to help you. A light-weight foldable wheelchair can sometimes be stowed in the luggage compartment but our tours are not suitable for larger wheelchairs or mobility scooters. You must advise us before booking a tour that you will be using a wheelchair or other mobility aids.
