Terms and Conditions - Adventure Yogi

We are Advetureyogi Ltd (“We”, “us” and “our”) of 44b Church Road, Hove, East Sussex, England, BN3 2FN. Company Number 08227881. VAT Number 170146631. In these Booking Conditions references to “you” and “your” include the first-named person on the booking and all persons on whose behalf a booking is made or any other person to whom a booking is transferred. A ‘package’ and ‘lack of conformity’ have the same meaning as in the Package Travel and Linked Travel Arrangements Regulations 2018 and ‘arrangements’ are all the accommodation, wellbeing and other arrangements detailed on your confirmation (including any additions or amendments).

1. Our agreement

You will receive standard information about your package arrangements and details of their main characteristics before a binding agreement between you and us come into existence. That information, these conditions together with our Privacy Policy and any other written information we brought to your attention before we confirmed your booking, form the basis of your contract with us. Please read them carefully as they set out our respective rights and obligations. By making a booking, you agree to be bound by all of them. The key terms of our agreement are:-

Key terms

1. You will enter into a binding contract with us when we issue our confirmation invoice. If you then cancel your arrangements, you will be required to pay cancellation charges. Initially, this will be the deposit you paid to secure your arrangements, but after you’ve paid the balance of the price of your arrangements, these charges could increase up to 100% of the cost of them;
2. You can make changes to your confirmed arrangements in certain circumstances. We will make a charge for processing these changes;
3. We may make changes to and cancel your confirmed arrangements but we will provide suitable alternatives and pay you compensation in certain circumstances if we do so;
4. We are responsible for making sure your confirmed arrangements are not performed negligently but there are some limits on and exceptions to this.

Accuracy of information and booking errors

We endeavour to ensure the accuracy of all the information and prices in our advertising material. However, occasionally changes and errors do arise and we reserve the right to correct them in such circumstances. You must check the current price and all other information relating to the arrangements that you wish to book before your booking is confirmed. We will not be liable for booking errors which are attributable to you or which are caused by unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances as defined in clause 9.

Our agreement becomes binding when we issue a confirmation. Please check all details on the confirmation (or any other document issued) immediately on receipt. It may not be possible to make changes to your arrangements later so you should notify us of any inaccuracies in any documentation within ten days of our sending it out. It may harm your rights if you don’t.

The suppliers whose services make up your arrangements make those supplies in accordance with their own terms and conditions which will also form part of your agreement with us. Some of these terms and conditions may limit or exclude the supplier’s liability to you, usually in accordance with applicable International Conventions. Copies of the relevant parts of these terms and conditions are available on request from ourselves or the supplier concerned.

2. Payment

You must make payment for your arrangements in accordance with the instructions we give you. Generally, we will require a minimum 40% deposit before we issue our confirmation. Balance payments are not due until 8 weeks prior to the event in the UK and for foreign holidays, 8 weeks prior to the arrival day.*Please note* Any booking made before 16th October 2023, is subject to the payment terms at the time of booking (4 weeks for UK retreats and 6 weeks for abroad trips). We will confirm your particular payment terms on booking. If we do not receive any payment due in full and on time, we reserve the right to treat your booking as cancelled by you in which case the cancellation charges set out in clause 7 below will become payable. In the case of international payments, you must ensure that we receive the full GBP Sterling amount. You will be responsible for all bank charges, withholding taxes, and exchange rate fluctuations.

3. Insurance

It is a condition of our agreement that you are covered by adequate travel insurance for your arrangements. Such insurance as a minimum must cover your losses sustained as a result of a cancellation, medical issues, and repatriation in the event of accident or illness. Details of a policy suitable to cover your arrangements are available by contacting a variety of travel insurers. If you choose to travel without adequate insurance cover, we will not be liable for any of your losses howsoever arising, in respect of which insurance cover would otherwise have been available.

4. Special requests

Special requests relating to your arrangements must be advised to us at the time of booking and confirmed to us in writing. Whilst we will try to meet or arrange your reasonable special requests, we cannot guarantee that they will be fulfilled. If we are able to specifically confirm a special request or requirement, we will do so on our confirmation but where requests or requirements have not been so confirmed in writing on our confirmation, a failure to meet them will not be a breach of contract on our part.

5. Health, disabilities and medical problems

You acknowledge that you are choosing to travel at a time where you may be exposed to the COVID-19 virus. You also acknowledge that you must comply with all advice and guidance issued by relevant health authorities. We will take all reasonable steps to ensure your safety and may require you to follow additional safety protocols on your trip. We use information from government foreign departments and reports from local suppliers in assessing how your itinerary should operate. However, it is also your own responsibility to acquaint yourself with all relevant travel information, including applicable health risks, and the nature of your itinerary. 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. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we accept no liability in relation to these additional risks.

You understand that yoga activities can be physically demanding. We will give you information about whether the arrangements you have chosen are generally suitable for persons with reduced mobility but if you or any member of your party has any precise medical problem or disability which may affect your chosen arrangements, please provide us with full details before we issue our confirmation. We will only provide precise information on the suitability of the trip or holiday taking into account your needs if you specifically request us to do so. Acting reasonably, if we are unable to properly accommodate your needs, we will not confirm your booking and/or if you did not give us full details at the time of booking, we will treat it as cancelled by you when we become aware of these details.

6. The price you pay

We reserve the right to amend the price of unsold holiday arrangements at any time and correct errors in the prices of confirmed arrangements.

The price of your confirmed arrangements is subject to variations which occur solely as a direct consequence of changes in:-

(a) the price of the carriage of passengers resulting from the cost of fuel or other power sources;

(b) the level of taxes or fees on your confirmed arrangements imposed by third parties not directly involved in the performance of the package, including tourist taxes, landing taxes or embarkation or disembarkation fees at ports and airports; or

Price variations will be calculated by applying the cost differential we experience as a result of the above factors. Prices may go up or down and we will notify you about any variation by sending you a calculation explaining the variation no less than 20 days before you are due to depart.

If your arrangements are a package, and if that means that you have to pay an increase of more than 8% of the price of your arrangements (excluding any insurance premiums, amendment charges and/or additional services), we will offer you the options in clause 8 under the heading ’Options on change or cancellation’.

If prices go down as a result of the above factors, we will make a reflective refund, but we will also deduct our administrative expenses from what is owed to you and this may extinguish the value of the refund due.

Also, note that travel arrangements are not always purchased in local currency and some apparent changes have no impact on price due to contractual protections in place.

7. Changes and cancellations by you

If you wish to make any changes to your arrangements after they have been confirmed, including if you wish to cancel all or some of them, you must inform us in writing as soon as possible. Your notice requesting a change or cancellation will only take effect when it is received in writing by us at our offices and will be effective from the date on which we receive it. We can’t guarantee that changes can be met, although we will do our best to assist. Since we incur costs in cancelling or changing your arrangements, all such changes and cancellations will be subject to the charges below. Where we are unable to assist with making a requested change, and you do not wish to proceed with the original booking we will treat this as a cancellation by you.

You may cancel any package arrangements prior to their commencement (following the process outlined above) in the event that i) circumstances amounting to unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances (as set out in clause 9) are occurring at the place where your arrangements are due to be performed or its immediate vicinity and; ii) if the performance of your arrangements will be significantly affected by those unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances. In this event, you will receive a refund without undue delay of any payments made but this the maximum extent of our liability and we regret we cannot meet any other expenses or losses you may incur as a result.

If your arrangements are a package and if any member of your party is prevented from travelling, that person(s) may transfer their place to someone else (introduced by you and satisfying all the conditions applicable to the arrangements, including an agreement to these booking conditions) providing we are notified in writing not less than seven days before departure and you pay an amendment fee and meet all costs and charges incurred by us and/or incurred or imposed by us or any of our suppliers. Both you and the person to whom you would like to transfer your arrangements shall be jointly and severally liable for the payment of any balance due and for any additional fees, charges or other costs arising from the transfer. If you are unable to find a replacement, cancellation charges as set out below will apply in order to cover our estimated costs. Otherwise, no refunds will be given for passengers not travelling or for unused services. Please note that in relation to some tours (for example those to India) the local authorities will not permit name changes once passport details have been supplied for entry purposes. In such situations, transfers of bookings will not be permitted.

Charges in the event of a cancellation

In the event of a cancellation, you will have to pay the applicable cancellation charges up to the maximum shown below (The cancellation charge detailed is calculated on the basis of the total cost payable by the person(s) cancelling excluding insurance premiums and amendment charges which are not refundable in the event of the person(s) to whom they apply cancelling):-

More than 56 days before the first day of your retreat – deposit only; more than 35 days before the first day of your retreat – 60% of the total cost of your holiday; more than 21 days before the first day of your retreat – 80% of the total cost of your holiday; 21 days or less – 100% of the total cost of your holiday. If cancellation of a party member results in under-occupancy of a room, those remaining must pay the appropriate empty bed charge.

CoronaVirus Cancellation Policy – in the event of a pandemic

You understand that in booking a retreat during the current pandemic you are taking a risk that circumstances may change following the confirmation of your booking. We would therefore recommend that if you have booked a retreat and are concerned about a potential order to isolate or otherwise ‘lockdown’, which may affect your ability to attend, that you start to reduce the time you spend in social areas such as restaurants, bars etc 10 days before the date of your departure to minimise this risk. Please note that if you do contract coronavirus prior to the retreat or you are required to self-isolate owing to having been in contact with an infected person or are required by a relevant authority to otherwise ‘lockdown’, and this means you are unable to attend the event, you will receive the choice of:-

moving your booking to another retreat of the same cost (if it costs more you will have to pay the difference)
Receiving a full refund as long as we have been able to re-sell your space on the retreat and you meet any other costs and losses we incur as a result of making the re-sale.

In order to process your refund or amendment, we will require evidence that you or someone that you have been in contact within the last 7 days has tested positive for the virus or that you are subject to a local lockdown. If you are subject to a local lockdown you must notify us as soon as this happens so that we can try and achieve your preferred outcome. It is YOUR responsibility to let us know if your area goes into a local lockdown. If you need to cancel for any other reason the terms of our cancellation policy above still apply.

If the reason for your cancellation is covered under the terms of your insurance policy, you may be able to reclaim these charges.

If we have to cancel due to a lockdown we will refund you minus any transaction fees that were incurred in the purchase of the retreat. Your refund will take up to 10 working days to come through.

Charges in the event of a change

In the event we can meet your requested change, you will have to pay £35 per alteration per person per change as well as any applicable rate changes or extra costs incurred as well as any costs incurred by ourselves and any costs or charges incurred or imposed by any of our suppliers. Amendments include: changing number of guests (reduction or addition), a retreat location, retreat date change and guest details (this is not an exhaustive list and there may be other amendments which incur a £35 administration fee) and if the change is within the cancellation terms above.

For UK Retreats: Requests for amendments must be made at least 6 weeks before the start date of the retreat.
For Retreats outside of the UK: Requests for amendments must be made at least 12 weeks before the start date of the retreat. If we are unable to make alterations as you requested (for example due to other retreat being booked up, or we are unable to sell your space) and you do not wish to continue with the booking then our cancellation charges (above) apply.

Note: Certain arrangements may not be amended after they have been confirmed and any alteration or cancellation could incur a charge of up to 100% of that part of the arrangements in addition to the charges above.

8. Changes and cancellation by us

Where we refer to a ‘price reduction’ in this clause, we mean that we will give you an appropriate reduction in the price you paid for the arrangements affected for any period during which there was lack of conformity, (unless that lack of conformity is attributable to you). Where we refer to ‘compensation’, we will pay you appropriate compensation without undue delay for any damage which you sustain as a result of any lack of conformity subject to the limitations and exclusions in section B of clause 12.

Changes and cancellations before departure

Most changes will be insignificant and we reserve the right to make them. If we make an insignificant change to the main characteristics of any package arrangements we will try to notify the change to you as soon as reasonably possible before your departure but we will not notify you about any other insignificant change. We will have no other responsibilities to you in respect of any insignificant changes. Please note that the replacement of one or all tour leaders (tour leaders being: yoga teachers, chefs, therapists, plus any transfers or activities included in the price) on a tour with leaders (or suppliers) having the same level of experience as those originally advertised will amount to an insignificant change.

Occasionally, we have to make a significant change and we reserve the right to do so. A significant change is one where we significantly alter any of the main characteristics of your confirmed arrangements. If we have to make a significant change or cancel before departure, we will inform you without undue delay and if there is time to do so before departure, we will offer you the choice of the following options:-

Options on change or cancellation

i) (for significant changes) agreeing to the changed arrangements,
ii) accepting the cancellation or terminating the contract for the arrangements and receiving a refund (without undue delay) of all monies paid; or
iii) accepting an offer of alternative arrangements of comparable standard from us, if available.

(In the event that any proposed change or alternative offered results in a reduction or increase in the price you have agreed to pay or an increase or decrease in the quality of arrangements we have agreed to provide, we will also notify you of any price reduction or additional amount due).

You must notify us of your choice within 7 days of our offer. If you fail to do so, we will contact you again, re-iterating the above choices and sums payable or refundable and if you again fail to respond within 7 days, we may terminate the contract and refund all payments made by you without undue delay.

Subject to the exceptions detailed below and where your arrangements are a package, we will where appropriate, pay you reasonable compensation, subject to the limitations and exclusions in section B of the clause.

Changes due to coronavirus and changes in government guidelines: After booking, changes in the information we send out about each retreat may be subject to change during the coronavirus pandemic due to the government guidelines changing quickly at this time. The documents we send ou are a working document and so subject to change. The yoga teacher will inform you at the beginning of the retreat of any changes to the literature that we send/give to you during the welcome meeting at the start of the retreat so that everyone can adhere to the new guidelines.

12. The compensation that we offer does not exclude you from claiming more if you are entitled to do so.
We will not pay you compensation where:-

i) we make a significant change or cancel before you have paid the final balance of the cost of your arrangements;
ii) we make a significant change or cancel as a result of unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances as set out in clause 9;
iii) we cancel your arrangements no later than 20 days before they are due to start because the minimum number of participants to run them has not been reached.

We will not make a price reduction or pay you compensation, and the above options will not be available where:-

i) we make an insignificant change;
ii) we cancel as a result of any failure by you (including a failure to make payment in accordance with these terms);
iii) where the change(s) or cancellation by us arises out of alterations to the confirmed booking requested by you.

Changes and cancellations to package arrangements after departure

If we become unable to provide a significant proportion of your package arrangements after you have departed, we will try to offer you suitable alternative arrangements of, where possible, equivalent or higher quality than those specified in the contract. If the alternative arrangements we make are of a lower quality than those you originally booked, we will make a price reduction. Where our original agreement included return transport we will also provide you with equivalent transport back to your place of departure without undue delay or additional cost. You may reject the proposed alternative arrangements only if they are not comparable to what we originally promised to provide or if the price reduction we offer is inadequate. Where we are unable to make suitable alternative arrangements or you reject the proposed alternative arrangements in accordance with this clause, where appropriate and only where your arrangements are a package, we will pay you compensation subject to section B of clause 12.

The above sets out the maximum extent of our liability for changes and cancellations and we regret we cannot meet any other expenses or losses you may incur as a result of any change or cancellation.

9. Unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances

Except where otherwise expressly stated in these booking conditions we will not be liable or pay you a price reduction or compensation if our contractual obligations to you are affected by unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances beyond the control of the party who seeks to rely on them which we or the supplier(s) of the service(s) in question could not avoid even if all reasonable measures had been taken. These events can include but are not limited to war, the threat of war, civil strife, terrorist activity and its consequences or the threat of such activity, riot, the act of any government or other national or local authority including port or river authorities, pandemics or epidemics, industrial dispute, lock closure, natural or nuclear disaster, fire, chemical or biological disaster and adverse weather, sea, ice and river conditions and all similar events outside our or the supplier(s) concerned’s control. Advice from the Foreign Office to avoid or leave a particular country may constitute unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances.

10. Complaints

If you experience difficulty during your retreat or holiday, please inform us without undue delay so that we can take steps to assist you or put things right. We cannot accept any liability whatsoever if we are not informed immediately, of any problem during your stay, in order to give our retreat team the opportunity to remedy the issues raised. If, after the issues raised have not been remedied, you should contact us by emailing [email protected] and put in writing the reasons for your complaint. We will reply within 28 days of receiving your complaint following our due diligence in looking into the detail of the complaint to enable us to give you an adequate reply that is fair and reasonable. If your complaint remains unresolved and you wish to complain further, please send formal written notice of your complaint to us within 28 days of the end of your arrangements, giving your booking reference and all other relevant information. Failure to follow the procedure set out in this clause may affect ours and the applicable supplier’s ability to investigate your complaint, and could affect your rights under our agreement.

11. Your behaviour

If in our reasonable belief or opinion or in the reasonable belief or opinion of any person in authority, your behaviour is jeopardising the safety of aircraft, people or property therein or good order and discipline on board; or is causing or is likely to cause distress, danger, damage or annoyance to any third party or property, or to cause a delay or diversion to transportation, or your behaviour is upsetting to other guests, we reserve the right to terminate your arrangements immediately. In the event of such termination, our responsibilities to you will cease and you will be required to leave your accommodation or another service immediately. We will have no further obligations to you and will not meet any expenses, costs or losses incurred as a result. You may also be required to pay for loss and/or damage caused by your actions directly to the applicable supplier prior to departure from the service. If you fail to do so, you will be responsible for meeting any claims and costs subsequently made against us as a result.

12. Our Responsibility

A. Our responsibilities differ according to what you have booked:

In relation to bookings of Packages

We accept responsibility as an “organiser” under the Package Travel and Linked Travel Arrangements Regulations 2018. Subject to these booking conditions, if we fail to arrange or perform your package arrangements in accordance with our agreement, we will remedy any resulting lack of conformity. If that is impossible or entails disproportionate costs (taking into account the extent of the lack of conformity and the value of the arrangements affected), we will instead pay you compensation subject to clause B of this clause. Please note that it is your responsibility to show that we or our supplier(s) have been negligent if you wish to make a claim against us.

In relation to all other bookings

We have a duty to select the suppliers of the services making up your booking with us using reasonable skill and care. Except as stated otherwise in these terms, we have no liability to you for the actual provision of the services, except in cases where it is proved that we have breached that duty and damage to you have been caused. Therefore, providing we have selected the suppliers using reasonable care and skill, we will have no liability to you for anything that happens during the service in question or any acts or omissions of the supplier, its employees or agents.

Please note that it is a condition of our acceptance of the responsibility above that you inform us and the supplier(s) concerned without undue delay of the lack of conformity you perceive; and allow us a reasonable period in which to remedy it. Please contact [email protected].

B. Limitations and exclusions of responsibility

In these terms and conditions, our responsibilities are limited, and the duty to pay compensation is limited as follows:-

We will not be responsible, make a price reduction or pay you compensation for any lack of conformity injury, illness, death, loss, damage, expense, cost or another claim of any description if it results from:-

(a) the act(s) and/or omission(s) of the person(s) affected;
(b) the act(s) and/or omission(s) of a third party unconnected with the provision of your arrangements and which were unforeseeable or unavoidable; or
(c) Unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances as set out in clause 9.

We will not be responsible, make a price reduction or pay compensation:-

a) for services or facilities which do not form part of our agreement or where they are not advertised by us. For example any excursion you book while away, or any service or facility which your hotel or any other supplier agrees to provide for you.

b) for any damage, loss or expense or other sum(s) of any description which on the basis of the information given to us by you concerning your arrangements prior to them being confirmed, we could not have foreseen you would suffer or incur if we breached our contract with you; or that relate to any business.

Any price reduction or compensation that is payable will be calculated taking into consideration all relevant factors for example (but not limited to):-

(a) whether or not you have followed the complaints and notifications procedure as described in these conditions. It is a condition of our acceptance of liability under this clause that you notify any claim to ourselves and our supplier(s) strictly in accordance with the complaints procedure set out in these conditions.

(b) the extent to which ours or our subcontractor’s, employees’ or suppliers’ negligence affected the overall enjoyment of your arrangements.

(c) the deduction that we must make to take account of any money which you have received or are entitled to receive from any transport provider or hotelier for the complaint or claim in question.

(Please also note that where any payment is made, the person(s) receiving it (and their parent or guardian if under 18 years) must also assign to ourselves or our insurers any rights they may have to pursue any third party and must provide ourselves and our insurers with all assistance we may reasonably require.)

Luggage or personal possessions and money

The maximum amount we will have to pay you in respect of any claim for loss of and/or damage to any luggage or personal possessions or money is an amount equivalent to the excess on your insurance policy which applies to this type of loss per person in total because you are assumed to have adequate insurance in place to cover any losses of this kind.

Claims covered by an International Convention

We rely on the terms and conditions contained within any applicable International Conventions. The extent of or the conditions under which compensation is to be paid or liability accepted will in all cases be limited as if we were a hotelier under the appropriate Conventions. You can ask us for copies of these Conventions.

Any other claims which don’t involve injury, illness, death or damage caused by us or our suppliers intentionally or negligently; or other liability that can’t be limited by law

The maximum amount we will have to pay you in respect of all such claims is three times (twice in the case of arrangements which aren’t packages) the price paid by or on behalf of the person(s) affected in total. This maximum amount will only be payable where everything has gone wrong and you or your party has not received any benefit at all from your arrangements.

Assistance to those travelling on a package in the event of difficulty

Where you have booked a package, we will provide appropriate assistance without undue delay in the event that you experience difficulty. Such assistance will extend to providing appropriate information on health services, local authorities and consular assistance; and helping you to make distance communications and to find alternative travel arrangements. We will charge a reasonable fee for such assistance if the difficulty is caused by you intentionally or as a result of your act or omission. In the event such assistance is needed please contact our local representative [email protected].

13. Jurisdiction and applicable law

These Booking Conditions and any agreement to which they apply are governed in all respects by English law. We both agree that any dispute, claim or other matter which arises between us out of or in connection with your contract or booking will be dealt with by the Courts of England and Wales only. You may, however, choose the law and jurisdiction of Scotland or Northern Ireland if you live in those places and if you wish to do so.

14. Financial security for packages

The Package Travel and Linked Travel Arrangements Regulations 2018 require travel companies to provide security for the monies that consumers pay for certain types and combinations of travel arrangements booked with them and for consumers’ repatriation in the event of their insolvency. We provide this protection for our package arrangements by way of a trust account run and administered by Protected Trust Services of 307-315 Holdenhurst Road Bournemouth Dorset BH8 8BX.

If you book arrangements other than a package with us, your monies will not be financially protected. Please ask us for further details.

15. Passport, Visa and Immigration Requirements and Health Formalities

It is your responsibility to check and fulfil the passport, visa, health and immigration requirements applicable to your itinerary. We can only provide general information about this. You must check requirements for your own specific circumstances with the relevant Embassies and/or Consulates and your own doctor as applicable. Requirements do change and you must check the up-to-date position in good time before departure.

Most countries now require passports to be valid for at least 6 months after your return date. If your passport is in its final year, you should check with the Embassy of the country you are visiting. For further information contact the Passport Office on 0870 5210410 or visit www.passport.gov.uk

Up-to-date travel advice can be obtained from the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, visit www.fco.gov.uk

Non-British passport holders, including other EU nationals, should obtain up to date advice on passport and visa requirements from the Embassy, High Commission or Consulate of your destination or country(ies) through which you are travelling.

We do not accept any responsibility if you cannot travel, or incur any other loss because you have not complied with any passport, visa, immigration requirements or health formalities. You agree to reimburse us in relation to any fines or other losses which we incur as a result of your failure to comply with any passport, visa, immigration requirements or health formalities.

16. Airport transfers:

It may sometimes be necessary to combine, on certain transfers, customers arriving or departing on more than one flight or train, which may require additional waiting time at your airport or resort. Sometimes our airport transfers are contracted to a specialist local agency.

In-resort minibus service: AdventureYogi Ltd sometimes provide free transportation service in resort for your convenience, the use of this service is taken entirely at your own risk and AdventureYogi Ltd take no responsibility for death or personal injury caused through the use of this service. Please note that the use of the vehicle is provided free of charge and does not form part of the holiday cost. In the event of bad weather, breakdown, illness, or accident, AdventureYogi Ltd cannot guarantee that the resort vehicles will be available to transport guests around the resort. Minibuses are usually 8 passenger seaters (can include other vehicle types).

17. Lost & Stolen Property:

AdventureYogi Ltd will not be held responsible for any theft or loss of personal possessions from our premises or vehicles. Whilst AdventureYogi Ltd will endeavour to ensure the security of guests’ personal possessions, AdventureYogi Ltd cannot guarantee it. It is up to the group leader to ensure that each member of the party is responsible for the safety of all their own personal possessions, documents and equipment. No responsibility or liability is or will be accepted in respect of such items. All clients should ensure their health and possessions are covered by personal travel insurance.

18. Vouchers:

Vouchers are only redeemable against AdventureYogi Ltd retreats or holidays. AdventureYogi Ltd lists a number of other holidays or retreats by alternative providers, however, the vouchers are not valid for these. The vouchers once bought are non–refundable and any rights or remedies detailed in these booking conditions which refer to a refund of monies paid will mean a refund in vouchers.

19. Website content:

We make every effort to ensure the accuracy of the information contained in our brochures and on our website. However, content is subject to change from time to time, often due to the actions of our suppliers (eg. hotels, tour companies, and suppliers in the country of the package with us). We will endeavour to notify you of any change known to us affecting your holiday prior to issuing you with our booking confirmation.

We do not generally use linking or framing. We are not responsible for the content, policies and services of any sites linked to or accessible via our website.

Travellers are also entitled to a price reduction or compensation for damages or both where the travel services are not performed or are improperly performed.
The organiser has to provide assistance if the traveller is in difficulty.
If the organiser or the retailer becomes insolvent, payments will be refunded. If the organiser or, where applicable, the retailer becomes insolvent after the start of the package and if the transport is included in the package, repatriation of the travellers is secured. Adventureyogi Ltd has taken out insolvency protection with Protected Trust Services Ltd. Travellers may contact this entity by writing to Protected Trust Services of 307-315 Holdenhurst Road Bournemouth Dorset BH8 8BX or, where applicable, the competent authority, the Civil Aviation Authority if services are denied because of Adventureyogi Ltd’s insolvency.
