Tanzania Safaris is operated and maintained by Everlasting african Adventures, the trading name of Godlisten Wonder Adventures.
Your Rights under this agreement are set out below.
a) Where we are an agent.
i. Where we act as an agent the invoice will say “we act as an agent for….” and then the name of the company with whom you are making a contract. Your contract is with that company and subject to their terms and conditions, a copy of which can be obtained from us.
ii. Where we are acting as an agent, and the commission received by us from the supplier is insufficient to cover costs, a booking fee will have been included in the price quoted. Where an outstanding balance is not received by the due date, we reserve the right to charge a fee to cover the costs of additional administration, credit control and postage that is incurred. If you have any special requests, please inform us as soon as possible in writing. We will pass on such requests to the principal but neither we nor they can guarantee to meet any such requests. Further, we regret we cannot accept any conditional bookings, i.e. any booking which is specified to be conditional on the fulfilment of a particular request.
All such bookings will be treated as standard bookings. In the event of a cancellation/ amendment by you, the principal will apply cancellation charges/ amendment fees in accordance with their booking conditions. In addition, we will apply a charge to cover our losses in advertising, administering and then altering/ cancelling the booking. The relevant charge will be quoted to you when notifying us of a cancellation/ amendment.
iii. Complaint procedure. Whilst as stated, we are not liable in any way for failing to perform or improper performance of the contract, we will do our best to help you resolve any complaint you might have against the principal.
b) Where your contract is with us?
When we act as a principal, the relevant invoice will state that your contract is with Everlasting Africa Adventures . In that case, the following booking conditions will apply.
Your contract is with Godlisten Wonder Adventure. We draw your attention to the following terms and conditions, which cover all brochures and correspondence and all bookings made with us. Any contract with Godlisten Wonder Adventure is subject to these terms and conditions from which no person has the authority to depart. Before making a booking with us you must ensure that you have read and understood these booking conditions (raising any queries you may have with us). By asking us to confirm your booking you are liable to be regarded as having had the opportunity to do so and to have actually done so before the contract between us comes into existence.
Everlasting Africa Adventures does not offer package holidays but will create a tailor-made holiday to suit your personal needs. A binding contract comes into existence between us when: (a) We receive a deposit, the amount of deposit required will be dependent on the components you have selected, or (b) When we receive full payment of the holiday when the booking is made less than 10 weeks before your departure date. No contract will exist between the parties until such funds have been received.
We require full payment to be made for your holiday 10 weeks prior to the departure date. If full payment is not received 10 weeks prior to the departure date, we reserve the right to cancel your holiday and apply the cancellation charges set out in paragraph 5. Cancellation will be without penalty to us and we will have no further liability to you. The lead booking name is liable for making full payment for all persons in the booking party and all those in the booking party agree to be bound by conditions (including anyone added or substituted at a later stage).
It is the responsibility of the lead booking name responsible for making the booking to ensure all in their party are aware of and have read these terms and conditions. If you accept our quote in respect of your holiday you must make a payment of the deposit amount immediately. A delay in acceptance of the quote may result in a variation of the holiday price and/ or availability of all or component pieces. Where the proposed departure date is within 10 weeks of the quote being given we require full payment at the time of your acceptance of the quote. Please note that it is often necessary to make bookings on a request basis. In this instance, you will be informed at the time of booking before a deposit is taken. Godlisten Wonder Adventure accepts no liability if the property, service or item requested is unavailable, however, will offer an alternative or full refund for the unavailable component of the holiday.
3. Medical conditions and disabilities.
If you or any member of your party have any medical problem or disability which may affect your holiday, please tell us before you confirm your booking so that we can advise as to the suitability of the chosen arrangements. In any event, you must give us full details in writing at the time of booking. If we reasonably feel unable to properly accommodate the particular needs of the person concerned, we must reserve the right to decline the booking or, if full details are not given at the time of booking, cancel when we become aware of these details.
Please carefully read your confirmation invoice, tickets and all other documentation we send you as soon as you receive them. Contact us immediately if any information appears to be incorrect as it may not be possible to make changes later. We regret we cannot accept any liability if we are not notified of any inaccuracy in any documentation within 14 days of our sending it out. You will be responsible for any costs and expenses involved in rectifying any inaccuracies except where we made the mistake.
Cancellation of a holiday must be made in writing and is effective from the date we receive the written notification. In all cases of cancellation, the deposit and any amendment charges will be forfeited. Cancellation charges are expressed at a percentage of quoted price as follows:-
Period before departure when we receive your written cancellation and cancellation charge per person cancelling.
Additionally, some itineraries or components may become non-refundable instantly as purchased. In these circumstances, we will inform you at the time of booking and will have no liability to refund these items. If the reason for cancellation is covered under the terms of your insurance policy you may be able to reclaim these charges. Please note that if we have issued your international airline tickets and you choose to cancel them then we will not be able to refund you any monies for these tickets.
The price of your itinerary will be based on known costs and exchange rates prevailing at the date of issue of the itinerary. At any time before full payment of your holiday has been made Godlisten Wonder Adventure reserves the right to levy a surcharge where costs or exchange rates have changed since the date of issue of the itinerary. PZ will absorb amounts up to 2% of the total holiday price and surcharge any amount greater than 2%. Should the surcharge exceed 10% of the total holiday price you are entitled to cancel the holiday and receive a full refund of all monies paid. We reserve the right to make changes to and correct errors in advertised prices at any time before your holiday is confirmed. We will advise you of any errors of which we are aware and of the then applicable price at the time of booking
Other matters influencing a surcharge would include, but are not limited to, increases in transportation costs e.g. fuel, scheduled airfares and any other airline surcharges, taxes or fees payable for services such as landing taxes, or embarkation or disembarkation fees at ports or airports.
If you wish to change your itinerary after a deposit has been made we will do our utmost to make the changes required, provided that notification is received in writing. Every change is subject to a fee of £50 per person per occasion that a change is made. We cannot make alterations to your itinerary within 10 weeks of departure and any such request will be treated as a cancellation of the original booking and will be subject to the cancellation charges set out in paragraph 5.
We reserve the right in any circumstances to cancel your holiday for any reason at any time before full payment has been received. Whilst we always endeavour to avoid changes and flight cancellations, we must reserve the right to do so. In these circumstances, we will return to you all monies paid or offer an alternative holiday of a comparable standard. We may cancel your confirmed holiday if you fail to comply with any requirement of these booking conditions entitling us to cancel. We cannot accept liability or pay compensation where the performance or prompt performance of our contractual obligations is prevented or affected by, or you suffer any damage or loss as a result of force majeure.
In these booking conditions force, majeure means any event which we or the supplier of services in question could not even with all due care foresee or avoid. Such events are likely to include war, the threat of war, civil strife, riot, civil disorder/unrest, industrial dispute, actual or threat of terrorist activity, natural or nuclear disaster, fire, a breakout of an epidemic or pandemic disease, technical problems with transport, closure, congestion of airports or ports, adverse weather conditions and all similar events outside our control. In the circumstances amounting to force majeure, we will not refund any money to you although if we can recover any monies from our suppliers we will refund these to you and additionally we will offer to carry forward your booking to another time or destination.
It is unlikely that we will have to make any changes to your holiday although we reserve the right to make changes at any time. Most of these changes are minor and we will advise you of these in writing at the earliest possible date. When a major change is necessary such as the alteration of your outward or return flights by more than 12 hours or a change in the standard of accommodation, provided it does not arise from conditions amounting to force majeure you will have the choice of accepting the new arrangements, taking another holiday with us or cancelling your holiday and receiving a full refund of all monies paid.
Compensation will not be payable and no liability beyond offering the above-mentioned choices can be accepted where we are forced to make a change or cancel as a result of unusual or unforeseen circumstances beyond our control, the consequences of which we could not have avoided even with all due care. No compensation will be payable and the above-mentioned options will not be available if we cancel as a result of your failure to comply with any requirement of these booking conditions entitling us to cancel, or if the change is a minor one.
A minor change is a change which, taking into account the information you give us at the time of booking or which we can reasonably be expected to know as a tour operator, we would not reasonably expect to have a significant effect on your confirmed holiday. No compensation is payable to children aged 2 and under. Please note we cannot accept any liability for any damage, loss, expense or other sums of any description, which:
On the basis of the information given to us by you concerning your booking prior to our accepting it, we could not have foreseen you would suffer or incur if we breached our contract with you, or Did not result from any breach of contract or any other fault by ourselves or our employees, or where we are responsible for them our suppliers.
