D) CHANGES & CANCELLATIONS

BY THE BOOKER

CHANGES

If you want to change your Event in any way after we have received your Booking Form you must inform us in writing, as soon as possible. We will try to accommodate your change requests, although we cannot guarantee that we will always be able to do this as changes are subject to availability at the time and the booking conditions of suppliers.

Any changes may result in additional charges, which you will need to agree to pay. Additional Charges may also apply where a request for an itinerary change is made after the full balance has been paid. Any change to your start date, activities or timing has to apply to all members of your Group.

As the price of your event is based on your initial numbers, if there is a drop or increase in numbers, The Intrepid Collective Ltd may be required to recalculate the package price based on the final number of people attending. The Booker will be required to pay the balance of the booking based on the reworked price.

If we are unable to make any requested change and you do not wish to continue with the Booking then our cancellation charges will apply.

CANCELLATIONS

If you would like to cancel your event in any way after we have received your Booking Form and payment you must inform us in writing, as soon as possible. If you cancel with more than 14 days until your event, we will refund your event minus the cost of any payments already incurred by us. If you cancel within 14 days of the event, there will be no refund. We incur costs as soon as we confirm your Booking, therefore we cannot give full refunds on any payments made. Please note that any date change requests will be subject to cancellation terms.

If your numbers go down more than 14 days ahead of the event, those cancelling are subject to any costs incurred. Within 14 days of the event, if there is any reduction in numbers, we are unable to offer any refund.

In the case of a Significant Change before your Event we will provide you with three alternatives:

Alternative arrangements of equivalent or similar (‘like for like’) standard and price, if available;
Alternative arrangements of a lower standard together with a refund of the difference in price;
Cancellation of the specific arrangements affected with a full refund of all monies paid for these arrangements only.

If the change occurs as a result of the circumstances beyond our control, clause ‘Limitation of our Liability to You’ will apply.
