Please make sure that you read this section as these are the conditions that you agree to when you book.

1. Contract:

No contract shall exist between the client or persons on whose behalf the booking form is made and AdventureYogi until a booking form has been received with a deposit of 30% minimum or full payment as applicable and our confirmation invoice has been issued. All clients are subject to these conditions whether they have signed our booking form or not. We reserve the right to refuse to accept bookings in our absolute discretion, without stating the reason for doing so.

2. Payments:

The balance of monies due from the customer must reach the AdventureYogi office 8 weeks before departure. All financial transactions, tour administration, information distribution, and ticketing will be done through the group leader on the retreat or holiday.

If we do not receive a payment within the agreed timeframe, AdventureYogi reserve the right to cancel your space.

Requests for amendments must be made at least 12 weeks before the start date of the retreat.

CoronaVirus Cancellation Policy Updated June 11th 2020

If you book from June 11th onwards up until May 2021, if your retreat or holiday has been cancelled by AdventureYogi Ltd due to the coronavirus pandemic flare-up, you will receive the choice of a refund, a holiday voucher to be used at any time in the future, or you can choose a specific retreat of your choice. If you need to cancel for any other reason the terms of our cancellation policy above still apply.

In the situation that you have coronavirus prior to the retreat and so can’t attend, we will either offer a holiday voucher or to move your booking to another retreat of the same cost (and if more you will have to pay the difference) after we have seen a doctors letter to say that you have it.

In the circumstance of Force Majeure, which is due to unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond the control of AdventureYogi Ltd there is no refund/compensation entitlement and AdventureYogi Ltd will direct you to your travel insurers. Please check with your travel insurance provider prior to your holiday to see what your entitlement is with regards to this.
