EXPERIENCE BOOKING TERMS

We act as an agent on behalf of various local experience Hosts who organise and supply outdoor, active & adventure experiences  in the area in which they’re based. References to “Host” in these Booking Conditions, means these third party suppliers organising and providing your experience.

References to “Experience” in these Booking Conditions means the outdoor, active & adventure experiences provided by the Host, which will generally consist of activities and excursions and other experiences as specified on your booking confirmation.

References to “you” and “your” means all persons named on the booking. By making a booking, the first named person on the booking agrees on behalf of all persons detailed on the booking that they: – have read these Booking Conditions and have the authority to and does agree to be bound by them; – consent to our use of personal data in accordance with our privacy policy and are authorised on behalf of all persons named on the booking to disclose their personal details to us, including where applicable, special categories of data (such as information on health conditions or disabilities and dietary requirements); – are over 18 years of age and where placing an order for services with age restrictions declares that he/she and all members of the party are of the appropriate age to purchase those services; – accept financial responsibility for payment of the booking on behalf of all persons detailed on the booking.

1. YOUR CONTRACT

When making your booking we will arrange for you to enter into a contract with the applicable Host of the Experience (we commonly refer to them as the ‘Host’), as specified on your confirmation invoice. Your booking with us is subject to these Booking Conditions and the specific terms and conditions of the relevant Host(s) you contract with and we advise you to read both carefully prior to booking. The Host’s terms and conditions may limit and/or exclude the Host’s liability to you. Please ask us for copies of these if you do not have them.

Your booking is confirmed and a contract between you and the Host will exist when we send you confirmation on their behalf. Except where explicitly stated otherwise in these Booking Conditions, as an agent we accept no responsibility for the acts or omissions of the Host or for the Experience provided by the Host.

2. BOOKING

When you make a booking on our website, you will have the opportunity to review all the details of the booking before making payment. Once you have reviewed these details and made payment, we will proceed to confirm the booking. In some instances, we will need to check availability with the Host before confirming the booking.

Please check that all names, dates and timings are correct on receipt of all documents and advise us of any errors immediately. As we act only as a booking agent, we have no responsibility for any errors in any documentation except where an error is made by us.

The booking information that you provide to us will be passed on only to the relevant Host or other persons necessary for the provision of your Experience. The information may be provided to public authorities such as customs or immigration if required by them, or as required by law. This applies to any special category (sensitive) information that you give to us such as details of any disabilities, or dietary and religious requirements. In making this booking, you consent to this information being passed on to the relevant persons. Certain information may also be passed on to security or credit checking companies. Please click here for full details of our privacy policy.

3. PAYMENT

In order to book your chosen Experience, you must pay a non refundable 25% deposit at the time of booking (or full payment if booking within 60 days of the experience).

If you have paid a deposit, you must pay the full balance by the balance due date notified to you. If full payment is not received by the balance due date, we will inform the Host(s) who may cancel your booking and charge the applicable cancellation fees (as set out in the Host’s terms and conditions).

Except where otherwise advised or stated in the terms and conditions of the Host concerned, all monies you pay to us for Experience will be held by us on behalf of the Host concerned until we make payment to the Host in accordance with our agreement with the Host.

4. ACCURACY

We endeavour to ensure that all the information and prices both on our website and in any advertising material that we publish are accurate, however, occasionally changes and errors occur and we reserve the right to correct prices and other details in such circumstances. You must check the current price and all other details relating to the Experience that you wish to book before you make your booking.

5. PRICES

We reserve the right to amend advertised prices at any time. We also reserve the right to correct errors in both advertised and confirmed prices. Special note: changes and errors sometimes occur. You must check the price of your chosen Experience at the time of booking.

6. INSURANCE

We recommend that you take out appropriate activity/travel insurance. Your policy of insurance should cover you and your party against the cost of cancellation by you; the cost of assistance (including repatriation) in the event of accident or illness; loss of baggage and money; and other expenses, as well as ensuring you have cover for any activities you have booked. If you choose to undertake the Experiences without adequate insurance cover, neither we nor the Host will be liable for any losses howsoever arising, in respect of which insurance cover would otherwise have been available.

7. SPECIAL REQUESTS

Any special requests must be advised to us at the time of booking e.g. dietary requirements. This should be done in writing as part of your booking. We will pass your request on to the Host but we cannot guarantee that they will be fulfilled. The fact that a special request has been noted on your confirmation invoice or any other documentation or that it has been passed on to the Host is not confirmation that the request will be met.

8. FITNESS TO TRAVEL AND MEDICAL CONDITIONS

We are not a specialist disabled experience company but we will do our utmost to cater for any special requirements you may have. If you or any member of your party has any medical problem or disability which may affect your trip, please provide us with full details before we confirm your booking so that we can try to advise you as to the suitability of your chosen Experience. We may require you to produce a doctor’s certificate certifying that you are fit to participate in your chosen experience.

Acting reasonably, if the Host is unable to properly accommodate the needs of the person(s) concerned, we will not confirm your booking on the Host’s behalf or, if you did not give us full details at the time of booking, we will inform the Host who may cancel it and impose applicable cancellation charges, when we become aware of these details.

9. CHANGES AND CANCELLATIONS BY YOU

Any cancellation or amendment request must be sent to us in writing, via the Wellwild website, and will take effect at the time we receive it. Please ensure that you have received written confirmation of any changes to your booking prior to travel. Whilst we will try to assist, we cannot guarantee that the Host will meet such requests. Amendments and cancellations can only be accepted in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Host of your Experience. The Host will charge the cancellation or amendment charges shown in their booking conditions (which may be as much as 100% of the cost of the Experience and will normally increase closer to the date of departure). Please note: some Hosts do not allow changes and therefore full cancellation charges will apply.

If a trip is cancelled by you for any reason and the booking terms for your trip allow – the deposit paid (defined as 25% of the total experience price) will be automatically converted into Wellwild credit and can be put against booking any other trip.

If you move your booking to a new date, your original booking terms will apply. This decision is final and refunds cannot be requested at a later date.

10. CHANGES AND CANCELLATIONS BY THE HOST

We will inform you as soon as reasonably possible if the Host needs to make a significant change to your confirmed Experience or to cancel them. We will also liaise between you and the Host in relation to any alternative Experience offered by the Host but we will have no further liability to you.

If a trip is cancelled by your supplier/principle for any reason you are entitled to either a full refund, to move your booking to an alternative date or to convert your payment into credit. Your decision to convert your booking to account credit is final once submitted and refunds cannot be requested at a later date.

If you move your booking to a new date, your original booking terms will apply. This decision is final and refunds cannot be requested at a later date.

11. COMPLAINTS

As the contract for your Experience is between you and the Host, any queries or concerns about your Experience should be addressed to them in the first instance. If you have a problem with your Experience whilst using them, this must be reported to the Host immediately. If you fail to follow this procedure there will be less opportunity for the Host to investigate and rectify your complaint. The amount of compensation you may be entitled to may therefore be reduced or extinguished as a result.

If you wish to complain after your experience, please put your complaint in writing and send it to hello@wellwild.com within 28 days of your Experience.

We will endeavour to assist in our capacity as an agent by liaising with the Host on your behalf.

12. ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Alternative dispute resolution is a process where an independent body considers the facts of a dispute and seeks to resolve it, without you having to go to court. If you are not happy with how we have handled any complaint, you may want to use alternative dispute resolution.

13. OUR RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR BOOKING

Your contract is with the Host and its booking conditions apply. As agent, we accept no responsibility for the actual provision of the Experience. Our responsibilities are limited to making the booking in accordance with your instructions. We accept no responsibility for any information about the Experience that we pass on to you in good faith. However, in the event that we are found liable to you on any basis whatsoever, our maximum liability to you is limited to twice the cost of your booking (or the appropriate proportion of this if not everyone on the booking is affected).

We do not exclude or limit any liability for death or personal injury that arises as a result of our negligence or that of any of our employees whilst acting in the course of their employment. 

14. EVENTS BEYOND OUR CONTROL

Except where otherwise expressly stated in these Booking Conditions we will not be liable or pay you compensation if our contractual obligations to you are affected by “Events Beyond Our Control”. For the purposes of these Booking Conditions, Events Beyond Our Control means any event beyond our or our supplier’s control, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all reasonable measures had been taken. Examples include warfare and acts of terrorism (and threat thereof), civil strife, significant risks to human health such as the outbreak of serious disease at the travel destination or natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes or weather conditions which make it impossible to travel safely to the travel destination or remain at the travel destination, the act of any government or other national or local authority including port or river authorities, industrial dispute, labour strikes, lock closure, natural or nuclear disaster, fire, chemical or biological disaster, unavoidable technical problems with transport and all similar events outside our or the Host’s (s) control.

You must check requirements for your own specific circumstances and your own doctor as applicable. Requirements do change and you must check the up to date position in good time before the Experience.

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.

20. YOUR BEHAVIOUR

You are expected to conduct yourself in an orderly and acceptable manner and not to disrupt the enjoyment of others. If in the Host’s opinion or in the opinion of any other person in authority, your behaviour or that of any member of your party is causing or is likely to cause distress, danger or annoyance to any other customers or any third party, or damage to property, or to cause a delay or diversion to transportation, the Host reserves the right to terminate your booking immediately with no further liability to you. You and/or your party may also be required to pay for loss and/or damage caused by your actions and you and each member of your party will be jointly and individually liable for any damage or losses caused. Full payment for any such damage or losses must be paid directly to the Host prior to departure. If you fail to make payment, you will be responsible for meeting any claims (including legal costs) subsequently made against us because of your actions together with all costs we incur in pursuing any claim against you.
