We may cancel a trip at any time prior to departure if, due to terrorism, natural disasters, political instability or other external events it is not viable for us to operate the planned itinerary. In circumstances where the cancellation is due to external events outside our reasonable control refunds will be less any unrecoverable costs. We are not responsible for any incidental expenses that you may have incurred as a result of your booking including but not limited to visas, vaccinations, travel insurance excess or non-refundable flights.

All booking variations made 30 days or more after booking; including transferring between tour packages and departure dates, incur an amendment fee from $100 per person per change to be paid at the time of the change (other fees may apply). Amendments within 90 days of departure will be regarded as a cancellation and will incur heavy penalties. Bookings requiring reissue of air tickets and other documents will incur an additional administration fee from $150 per person.

For any changes that involve amendments to fixed group flights or default package components, such as airline upgrades, stopovers and breakaways from the group itinerary, all associated fees are payable immediately at the time of the change.

A surcharge from $100 per person is applicable to clients who request booking components such as flights be finalised earlier than the standard booking finalisation time frame of within 30 days of booking, or 90 days before departure, whichever comes first.

Changes must be made in writing by the person who made the original booking, or his or her travel agent. Once a booking is confirmed, name transfers are not permitted and will be regarded as a cancellation.

You acknowledge that your decision to travel is made in light of consideration of this information and you accept that you are aware of the personal risks attendant upon such travel.
