Cancellation Policy angle-down

Deposits are not refundable under any circumstances. Refunds of payments other than deposits are entirely at the discretion of the Operator and if granted will always be paid net of all expenses incurred. In general no refunds will be given for “no shows”. 2. After we have accepted deposits the price stated on the written confirmation will not change unless the booking is changed or unless as a result of Government action. 3. The Operator reserves the absolute right to cancel or amend any service at any time for any reason and assumes no liability whatsoever for any loss, additional cost or any other consequent result. 4. It is the client’s responsibility to advise the Operator in writing at the time of the booking of any medical condition or physical disability, which requires any special treatment or attention. The Operator reserves the right to decline client’s bookings on the grounds that their safety could be compromised. No person presenting themselves for a rafting trip in an apparently intoxicated state or under the influence of drugs will not be rafted nor will any refund be forthcoming. 5. The activities provided by the Operator carry a degree of risk by participating in any of the activities provided by the Operator clients are expressly assuming those risks personally and are releasing the Operator and it’s officers, employees and agents from any liability, claims, losses, damages or expenses caused by any event including but not limited to personal injury or death; property loss or damage. Acts which may be construed as negligent or accidental, any other loss, damage, suffering, emotional or nervous disorder. 6. The Operator under no circumstances will accept responsibility either directly or through it’s suppliers for any costs incurred as a result of an accident involving injury or death. 7. By participating in any of the activities provided by the Operator, clients agree not to commence any litigation or proceedings in any country in relation to the risks and perils set out in “Sub-rule 5” above and indemnify the Operator from any such claims. 8. A minimum physical size is required for rafting. The normal criterion is to set the minimum age of rafting at 13 years of age and minimum of 40kg. (river section and grade dependent), however we reserve the right to refuse to raft older children should we consider their build to be too slight for safety.
