Excursión Panorámica al Everest

1. If you wish to transfer from one trip or trek to another, 10% of the tour cost will be made to cover office administration. We are happy to accept transfers only providing this does not cause us to cancel the trip or trek you are already booked onto and provided we do not suffer costs incurred from suppliers and airlines relating to your cancellation. Any additional costs incurred as a result of your transfer will be passed on to you.

2. If you want to make changes to your itinerary after we have confirmed your booking we must be notified in writing at least 15 days prior to departure. A fixed fee of US$150 per person will be charged to cover administration and booking cancellation costs. Costs resulting from changing your booking will be passed on to you. Changes made 15 days or less before your departure date will be considered to cancel your original booking and the cancellation charges outlined will be applied.

3. Cancellation must be advised, in writing, and will be effective from the date of receipt by The Company. In the case of group bookings, cancellation of one or more individual places within the group must be received in writing from the person responsible for placing the booking originally and not from individual members of the group.

Cancellation/Amendment Policy:

No refund/changes within 17-day prior to departure date based on the tour operator's time zone.

18-32 days prior to departure date - 25.00% Refund

33-47 days prior to departure date - 50.00% Refund

48 days or more prior to departure date - 75.00% Refund

4. Such terms are adopted in a similar form throughout the travel industry and are designed to protect The Company who is required to make certain advance payments as part of your holiday arrangements. Provided the reason for cancellation falls within the terms of the policy, you may be able to claim cancellation charges back from your insurance company. We strongly suggest you take out insurance at the time of booking to cover against possible cancellation charges. Should you cancel your booking the insurance premium is forfeit.

5. We reserve the right to cancel or modify your holiday. If we have to cancel your holiday before the date of departure, you will have the choice of taking an alternative holiday. Where this is a lower price we will refund the difference and where this is of a higher price you will be expected to pay the difference. Or you can choose to withdraw from the contract with us and accept a full refund. In addition and in appropriate cases, where the full balance has been paid, and where such cancellation is not due to under booking or force majeure (as defined below), we will pay you compensation, which is reasonable given the circumstances in question. Force majeure is defined as unusual and unforeseeable circumstances, beyond our control, the consequences of which neither we nor any of our suppliers could avoid. If a tour is under booked and as a result will not run, we will inform you no later than 6 weeks prior to departure. We cannot be held liable for any loss or damages incurred or any claims due to any cancellation on any account whatsoever.

6. No refund or compensation will be made for any unused air tickets, accommodation or any other activity, service or feature of the trip. A general indication is provided of the itinerary for each adventure holiday, accommodation used, what is included in the price, passport and visa requirements and health formalities. As indications, they are not a contractual obligation on the part of The Company. Changes in any or all of these may be made at any time and we will notify you of any such changes that we become aware of as soon as we are reasonably able to do so. Most holidays will have accompanying detailed Itineraries which can be downloaded from our website or sent out to you on request. We advise you to read these notes carefully before making any booking to ensure you understand the nature of the holiday and what is and is not included in the price. If you have made a booking and, after reading the itinerary, feel you have not fully understood the details of the holiday, you may cancel your booking without penalty and we will refund any monies paid to us. This type of cancellation will only be allowed during the 7 days following our sending the Itineraries to you. Cancellation of this type will not be allowed if your booking is made less than 8 weeks before departure.

7. It must be realized that with adventure travel, changes to an itinerary may occur. Most of our trips operate in developing and/or remote countries and regions and a degree of flexibility is required, sometimes patience and a sense of humor, which are part of the adventure travel experience. We reserve the right to make such changes after we have confirmed your booking and if we do so, we will make the best efforts to inform you before departure and make suitable alternative arrangements. Circumstances may arise where we are forced to alter trip dates, duration or hotel accommodation before leaving your country. Local events may result in delays or alterations. Clients will be informed of any such changes as soon as we know of them and will be invoiced for any additional costs resulting, or refunded any difference as appropriate. During a trip, we will do our best to ensure suitable alternatives and minimal disruptions to your itinerary and any changes will be made in discussion with the group.

8. Your booking is accepted on the understanding that you realize and accept the risks and hazards potentially involved in adventure holidays and that you are mentally and physically capable of undertaking your chosen trip. You must tell us if you have an existing medical condition or disability that might affect your holiday before you make any booking. If in our reasonable opinion, your chosen holiday is not suitable for your medical condition or disability, we reserve the right to cancel the contract if medical or other problems are discovered. In this eventuality, we will give a full refund but no compensation. You are responsible for bringing with you the proper clothing and equipment.
