Validity, Ticket Use & Wristbands

Unique QR Code

Each ticket has a unique QR code valid for a single scan. Upon registering at Ticket Booth, Reception or Antigua offices, the ticket automatically deactivates as 'Attended'.

Mandatory Wristband Use

Visitors must keep their wristband on and visible at all times. There is no wristband replacement in case of loss or damage; if lost, a new one must be purchased to remain in the park.

Packages & Promotions

If you purchase a package directly at the ticket booth, offices, or online, park entry is included. If you purchase entry only and later decide to add restaurant/dining, package discounts cannot be applied retroactively. (We recommend purchasing packages before payment).

Natural Environment, Weather & Activity Safety

Mountain Location & Climate

Hobbitenango is located in a high mountain area. Weather changes quickly and visitors may experience intense sun, cold, or sudden rain. Please come prepared with comfortable, warm clothing and sun/rain protection.

Altitude Effects

Due to high altitude, some visitors may experience mild dizziness or mountain sickness. Please walk at your own pace and stay hydrated.

Rules & Safety Instructions for Games and Activities

Each game and activity inside the park has its own posted rules and usage restrictions or instructions provided by staff. Following staff instructions is mandatory for safety. Hobbitenango is not responsible for incidents resulting from failure to comply with safety instructions or posted rules.

General Cancellation & Rescheduling Policies

(Applies to day passes, transport and food tickets)

Refunds and Changes Schedule

• Cancellation 35 days or more: 100% refund.

• Cancellation between 34 and 10 days: 80% refund.

• Cancellation under 10 days: No refund. Rescheduling only.

• Last minute date changes (2 days or less): Mandatory 20% logistics fee applies (subject to availability).

• No-Show: Full payment forfeited without changes or refunds.

• Refund of Hobbitenango Fees and Services.

In cases where the cancellation of a reservation or service qualifies for a full refund, Hobbitenango will process the return of 100% of the net amount actually received and deposited into its bank accounts. Hobbitenango does not retain or charge penalties on funds corresponding to transactions that are cancelled, not settled, or not approved under the applicable conditions.

• Booking Fees, Payment Gateways and Bank Charges.

The client/user acknowledges and agrees that charges corresponding to:

• Platform or service usage fees (Booking Fee).

• Credit or debit card processing fees.

• Administrative charges from international payment gateways and financial intermediaries (including, among others, WeTravel, Stripe or issuing banks).

Constitute amounts charged and retained directly, independently and exclusively by those intermediary financial entities for the use of their transaction infrastructure. Consequently, such amounts do not form part of Hobbitenango's income, fees or bank accounts, and the establishment lacks the technical and financial authority or jurisdiction to process the return or refund of such commissions.

• Bank Transfer Processing and Verification Times.

Payments made by bank transfer require a manual verification and posting process that will take 3 to 7 business days to be formally reflected in our system. By selecting this payment method, the client/user expressly agrees to submit the transaction to this administrative review. To expedite payment and immediate reservation confirmation, the client/user is recommended to pay by credit or debit card.
