1. Rules, Terms and Conditions

Introduction

These are the Terms and Conditions under which you book your tour with Jarramali Rock Art Tours . Once you make a payment towards your tour, you become bound by these Terms and Conditions, so it is important that you read them carefully.
Certain laws such as the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) and any applicable state-based consumer legislation (from here known as ‘consumer laws’), are in place for your protection. They are designed to ensure our services are provided with due care and skill and are reasonably fit for a tour holiday. These Booking and Tour Conditions do not alter any protection given to you by consumer laws.

Tour itineraries are not guaranteed, however we will do everything we reasonably can to make sure everything goes according to plan; however, sometimes changes can happen that may affect your holiday experience. Many factors may affect our ability to provide any particular itinerary. These include weather, mechanical difficulties, civil unrest or other unforeseen circumstances. We agree to use reasonable endeavours to provide a tour in accordance with our published schedules and itineraries. However, we do not guarantee itineraries and they do not form part of your contract with us.
In addition, we may charter all or part of the tour vehicle or remove the vehicle from service where this becomes necessary. We may change the itinerary, vehicle or cancel the tour due to operational or commercial requirements. We will notify you of these changes as soon as we can. If we are forced to cancel your tour for any reason prior to departure we will provide a full refund. Since your itinerary is not guaranteed, please do not make any important arrangements or meetings based on the proposed itinerary.

Changes within our control

Where we make a significant change to your itinerary prior to departure and this is due to a circumstance within our control, for example for operational or commercial requirements you will have the choice of:
1. the new itinerary;
2. an alternative tour of comparable standard, if available; or
3. cancelling the tour for a full refund of your fee paid.
For the purposes of this clause, 'significant change' means the date or location of departure.

Changes outside our control

If it is necessary to change the itinerary due to safety, law, severe weather, to protect human life or health or other factors outside our control, we will attempt to offer a revised itinerary as close as possible to the original itinerary. We will not provide any compensation in connection with the revised itinerary unless consumer laws require otherwise.

Your Health and Fitness

You must ensure that you are medically and physically fit for the activities that form part of the tour, and that such activities will not endanger yourself or anyone else. At the time of booking (or as soon as possible after booking), you must advise us if you have any medical or physical condition that will or may require medical attention, medication or special treatment during your tour. We may also ask you to complete a health questionnaire.
If a participant has a condition that we decide may seriously affect the enjoyment, health or safety of themselves or any other person on the tour, we can refuse or cancel a booking. Such decisions will be made giving reasonable consideration to your circumstances and we will advise you of our decision as soon as possible. Where your booking is cancelled and you have provided us with a completed health questionnaire with all relevant information about your condition, you will be entitled to a full refund.
Participants with restricted or limited mobility, and those with medical conditions must be self-sufficient or travel with a carer or someone who can assist with activities. Our staff are unable to act as personal carers.

Rights of the Operator

In such cases, we are not responsible for any expenses including your return home. In addition, you will not be entitled to any refunds. While the Operator will always act reasonably in these circumstances, you accept that the safety, well-being and enjoyment of everyone on the tour comes first.
