2. When you make this booking on behalf of yourself and / or other persons you undertake that you have the authority to accept
and do accept on  behalf of your party the terms of these booking conditions. This contract is made subject to these terms and conditions,
which are governed by English Law and the non exclusive jurisdiction of the English Courts.

3. Provisional booking reservations may be made by telephone but all such bookings must be confirmed within 14 days by sending to us a fully completed booking form and deposit of £300 per person, per holiday for all our holidays. Any provisional booking is not a contract between us and you. A contract between us and you will not come into effect until we notify you in writing of our acknowledgement of deposit and booking. Please check our acceptance of your booking very carefully to ensure that all the information is correct and tell us immediately of any errors.

4. Full payment of the balance of the holiday cost is due 90 days prior to all our holidays. If you do not pay the outstanding balance for your holiday or of anyone in your party on or before the date when it is due we may cancel the booking and you will be required to pay cancellation charges detailed at clause 6 below. The date of cancellation will be the date we receive confirmation in writing that you intend to cancel a booking, or 15 days after the balance of the holiday cost is due, whichever comes first.

5. If after we notify you in writing of our acceptance of your booking you wish to change your holiday in any way we will do our utmost to
make these changes. However it may not always be possible. Any request for changes must be made by the person who has made the
booking on the booking form. Please note that certain holidays and fares cannot be changed after a booking has been accepted and any such
alteration request can incur a 100% cancellation charge. Any charges incurred as a result of changes you request and agreed by us will be payable by you.

6. You, or any member of your party, may cancel your holiday at any time. Written notification from the lead name on your booking must
 be received by us. Since we are likely to incur costs in arranging your holiday you will have to pay a cancellation charge. If you cancel more than
90 days before departure you will lose your deposit. Cancellation between 89 & 60 days before departure will result in a cancellation charge
of 50% of the booking price. Cancellation between 59 & 30 days before departure will result in a cancellation charge of 70% of the booking
price. Cancellation between 29 & 15 days before departure will result in a cancellation charge of 90% of the booking price. Cancellation
between 14 days and day of departure will result in a cancellation charge of 100% of the booking price.  It’s strongly recommended you obtain
cancellation insurance to protect your deposit and the balance of payment in the event of cancellation.

7. There may be circumstances in which we have to cancel your holiday. Sometimes changes are unavoidable and we reserve the right to make them.

Most of these changes are likely to be minor and we will do our best to keep you informed. If after accepting your booking, and before departure,
we make a significant change to your holiday you will have the option of withdrawing from the holiday without penalty. Alternatively, we will try to offer
you a suitable alternative holiday without additional charge. A significant change would involve a change in the departure date or location of the holiday.

8. When we have notified you of the changes or proposed cancellation of a holiday and options available you must tell us your decision
as soon as possible and within 14 days of our sending you notification of change or cancellation.

9. Save as set out below, if we notify you of a significant change to the holiday arrangements which you do not accept more than 60 days
before the departure date or we cancel the holiday arrangements more than 60 days before the departure date we will refund to you all
the monies you have paid but no compensation will be payable.

10. Any monies paid referred to in clause 9 above will not be re-paid where the changes or cancellations are made as a result of events beyond our
 control, to include war, threat of war, riot, civil strife, terrorist activity, industrial dispute, fire, quarantine, epidemic or health risks, natural or nuclear
disasters, port and terminal closures and / or adverse weather conditions or generally as a result of 'force majeure'.

11. We also reserve the right in any circumstances to cancel your holiday, for example if the minimum number of persons required for
a particular holiday is not reached we may cancel the holiday. If it is necessary to cancel your holiday, except where cancellation is due to
non-payment by you of your final balance or for any reason set out in clause 10 above, we will re-pay to you the monies paid as set out at clause 6 above.
 

12. Please note that travel insurance is mandatory and is not included in the cost of the holiday. It is a condition of your booking with us that each party to a
booking, or member of a group booking, has travel insurance to include medical insurance for a minimum of £1,000.000.00 including   
repatriation, and liability insurance for a minimum of £1,000.000.00. We also recommend that your cover include holiday interruption / cancellation
and personal accident. We cannot be held liable in the event of any claim arising out of events beyond our control as a result of optional activities run
by others, or as a result of you indulging in activities which are not part of the original booking. Failure to provide proof of adequate travel insurance
may result in the cancellation of the holiday on the same terms as cancellation by you.
