Photos from our trips to Campos do Jordão, SP
Introduction
Campos do Jordão is located at an altitude of 1,700 meters, and scientific research has confirmed its climate’s superiority to that of Davos Platz in the Swiss Alps, as well as its higher oxygen content compared to Chamonix, a famous French resort, thanks to the purity of its air.
Campos do Jordão has an advantage over Brazil’s other climate resorts: its tropical mountain climate means the sun shines practically all year round.
The city is located in a valley, and its three main districts are Vila Abernessia (the resort’s commercial and administrative center), Vila Jaguaribe (part tourist area and part residential), and Vila Capivari (a quintessential tourist village).
The latter is home to the best hotels and restaurants, bakeries and shopping malls, as well as luxurious residences reminiscent of Swiss chalets and imposing Norman-style mansions.

Important notes
The information gathered below covers part of what is stated in our General Conditions. It is essential to read the entire document.
Cancellations, Transfers, and Customer Cancellations
The CONTRACTED PARTY will reimburse the Contractor the amount due, calculated on the total actually received by the Contracted Party, excluding the amount of the commission retained, which should be dealt with the Travel Agent, as well as administrative fees and amounts already paid to suppliers.
In the occurrence of any of the mentioned hypotheses, the following administrative fees will be deducted from the total amount charged for the tourist package, in the following proportion:
- When the cancellation occurs 30 (thirty) days or more before the departure date of the trip: 10% (ten percent)
- When the cancellation occurs 29 (twenty-nine) to 21 (twenty-one) days before the departure date of the trip: 15% (fifteen percent)
- When the cancellation occurs 20 (twenty) to 1 (one) day before the departure date of the trip: 30% (thirty percent)
- If the passenger does not show up at the time and place set for the start of the trip, 35% (thirty-five percent) will be charged
In addition to the fees and penalties described above, amounts already paid to suppliers for securing reservations, duly proven, will be deducted as expenses, since the Contracted Party is only an intermediary in the hiring of tourist services, holding the received amounts temporarily, as it depends on third parties for the effective execution of these services, such as air, maritime, and road transport, as well as accommodation, reception, restaurants, and other contracted services.
For both road and air excursions, date transfers or refunds for unused segments will not be allowed.
Trip abandonment - Once the excursion has started, the passenger who abandons it for any reason will not be entitled to any refund for paid and unused services.

However, if unaccompanied, judicial authorization from the Childhood and Youth Court will be necessary, all in accordance with articles 83 to 85 of the Child and Adolescent Statute - Law No. 8.069/90. The passenger can obtain more information about the required documentation from the Federal Police (www.dpf.gov.br).
