You are strongly advised to take out cancellation insurance at the time of making the booking as this will cover cancellation charges in certain circumstances. (Note such insurance will not cover a change of mind.) Acceptance of risk Adventure travel involves risks, including injury, disease, loss or damage to property, inconvenience and discomfort. The itineraries given for each holiday must be taken as an indication of what the tour will cover, and not as a contractual obligation on the part of the Company. Changes in itinerary may be caused by local political conditions, flight cancellations, mechanical breakdown, weather, border restrictions, sickness, or other unforeseeable circumstances. No refunds will be given for unused services. It is a condition of booking any of our holidays that you accept this flexibility, and acknowledge that delays and alterations and their results, such as inconvenience, discomfort, or disappointment, are possible. Please don't expect Western standards of accommodation or travel. Tajikistan is a developing country. Local conditions of health, safety and efficiency may not be up to Western standards. Some facilities will be basic, although we will do our best to offer you the best there is. Authority on holiday On an adventurous holiday it is necessary that you abide by the authority of the leader, who represents the Company. Signing our booking form indicates your agreement to this. If you commit any illegal act when on the holiday, or if in the opinion of the leader your health or behavior appears likely to endanger the safe, comfortable or happy progress of a holiday we may terminate your travel arrangements without any liability on our part. In the case of ill-health we may make such arrangements as we see fit and recover the costs from you. If you are affected by any condition, medical or otherwise, that might affect your or other people's enjoyment of the holiday, you must advise us of this at the time of booking. Our responsibility for your holiday We will accept liability for the negligence of our staff or agents causing death or physical injury to persons or loss or damage to personal property only to the extent that we are obliged to under Tajikistan law. We cannot be held responsible for any other mishap to yourself or your property, and in particular for the consequences or effects of flight cancellations, strikes, wars, riots, robbery, sickness, quarantine, government intervention or other such happenings. We shall not be liable for any damage or loss if the failure to carry out the contract is: • attributable to you. • unforeseeable or unavoidable and attributable to a third party unconnected to the Company. • due to unforeseen and unusual circumstances beyond the Company's control, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all due care had been exercised. • due to political disputes, border closures, refusal of visas, industrial action, delayed flights, climate or other matters of a similar nature and any other force majored. • due to an event which the Company could not foresee or forestall, even with all due care. • due to the theft of bicycles/kayaks or injury as a result of cycling/kayaking and in particular injuries as a result of either inadequately serviced and maintained personal equipment, including privately owned bicycles/kayaks or failure to wear the correct safety equipment, most notably a helmet. Any liability is limited to the price paid. In the case of damaged property the liability is limited to a maximum amount equal to the amount paid by or on behalf of the owner of the property. In all cases we specifically exclude all liability for indirect or consequential loss or expense including loss of profits. The Company's acceptance of liability is limited, in the case of air travel, rail travel, sea travel or hotel accommodation, to the amount set out in the provisions of the Carriers Liability Limited, the 1961 Berne Convention, the 1974 Athens Convention and the 1962 Paris Convention. Any independent arrangements that you make which are not part of the holiday are entirely at your own risk. The holiday starts in Tajikistan, and our responsibility does not start until the appointed time at the designated meeting point. If you fail to arrive there at the appointed time, we shall not be responsible for any additional expenses incurred by you to meet up with the group. Complaints If you have any complaint about the holiday, you should make it known at the earliest opportunity to the leader and/or our local representative, who will normally be able to take appropriate action. If you are not satisfied with their response and you feel your enjoyment of the holiday is likely to be significantly affected, you should notify our head office in England and we will do our best to resolve the problem. If at the end of the holiday, you feel your complaint has not been properly dealt with, we shall try and agree a settlement with you, but you must first notify us of your complaint in writing within 30 days of your scheduled date of return. Photos We may use any likeness or image of you secured or taken on any of our holidays without charge in all media for promotional purposes, such as in brochures, slides, the internet and video shows. |
