Travel Protection:
Travel Insurance is not included in the tour price.
Travel Insurance is strongly suggested to protect your investment in your vacation, and/or may be required by some destination countries. Recommended coverage is detailed here: 
Tour Protection Plan | Conservancy Travel (travelinsure.com)
Conservancy Travel highly recommends the purchase of trip insurance to cover unforeseen trip cancellation, interruptions, lost baggage, and emergency medical assistance and evacuation. Participants may purchase trip insurance through any provider. For CFAR “Cancel for any reason” a trip insurance policy must be purchased within a 14-day window, to waive the pre-existing medical conditions. An insurance policy, when issued, shall constitute a contract only between the participant and the insurance provider. Conservancy Travel will not intervene in any transactional issues or claim disputes between the participant and the insurance provider.

Air Arrangements: You may choose to make your own air arrangements, or request assistance from Conservancy Travel’s Air Desk. All flight purchases are transacted between the passenger and the Air Desk service provider, whose fee schedule is independent of Conservancy Travel. 
All changes and/or cancellations for purchased air arrangements are the responsibility of the passenger.

Cancellation Fees: All cancellations are effective from the date that written notification is confirmed as received by Conservancy Travel
●	91 days or more before departure: Cancellation fees equal the amount of your deposit 
●	90-61 days before departure: 50% of the package price less the deposit is non refundable 
●	60 days or less before departure: 100% of the package price/total order is non-refundable

Cancellation by Conservancy Travel: In the rare event that a journey is canceled by Conservancy Travel for reasons other than force majeure or extraordinary causes beyond CT’s control, all monies paid to The Center for Conservation and Community or Conservancy Travel will be refunded in full including change fees on air tickets purchased through Conservancy Travel. Conservancy Travel cannot accept responsibility for any other expenses incurred in preparing for the journey, including non-refundable or non-transferable airline tickets not purchased or provided by Conservancy Travel. If a journey is canceled by Conservancy Travel for reasons of force majeure or extraordinary causes beyond Conservancy Travel’s control, Conservancy Travel will make every attempt to recoup the maximum reimbursements from operators and will in turn refund all recoverable costs.

Travel Documents/Vaccinations:  Travel participants must be in possession of valid passports and any visas (if necessary for the destination).  Any permits that may be required for the destination will be provided by Conservancy Travel.  Participants must have received all vaccinations as required by the in-country operators and as are normally recommended for the countries through which they intend to travel. Information as to these matters and as to climate, clothing, baggage, gear, and similar matters is given in good faith but without responsibility on the part of Conservancy Travel.

PHYSICAL HEALTH: All participants must be in overall good health to participate in a Conservancy Travel trip. All programs require physical independence and mobility: participants must be able to embark or disembark all conveyances used on the trip alone or with minimal assistance from a traveling companion and must be able to climb stairs and step over raised thresholds without assistance.  Participants requiring assistance must travel with a companion who will be responsible for providing such assistance, including but not limited to handling any personal equipment a traveler requires. Any physical or mental health condition that may require special medical attention or physical assistance must be disclosed in writing prior to booking so that Conservancy Travel may evaluate whether participation is feasible. All participants should consult with their doctor about whether they can meet the physical requirements of their trip and must complete and return any medical forms required. Participants with dietary restrictions also must make these known to Conservancy Travel well before departure. Some destinations are unable or unaccustomed to some dietary restrictions, and Conservancy Travel does NOT guarantee the delivery of specifically catered dietary restrictions for all meals in all circumstances.

California Seller of Travel Program: Please be advised California has established a Travel Consumer Restitution Fund. It does not cover non-California residents, and even in the case of California residents, does not cover any foreign travel where the foreign “providers of transportation of travel services” are not in compliance with the seller of travel law (compliance being defined as: registered as a seller of travel in California and a participant in the Travel Consumer Restitution Fund). Thus, your tour does not qualify and by law you are required to be advised that you would not be eligible to make any claim from that fund in the unlikely event of default by Conservancy Travel, the airline or any of our foreign suppliers.  Registration as a seller of travel does not constitute approval by the State of California.

Limits on Conservancy Travel Responsibilities: Conservancy Travel and their affiliates, owners, officers, agents, employees, contractors, and subcontractors (hereafter in this paragraph “Conservancy Travel”) purchase transportation, hotel accommodations, restaurant services, and other services from various independent suppliers that are not subject to its control. Neither Conservancy Travel, nor any associate organization, agent, employee, contractor, or subcontractor shall be held liable for any act, default, injury (including death), loss, expense, damage, deviation, delay, curtailment, or inconvenience caused to or suffered by any person or their property, howsoever arising, which may occur or be incurred by any organization or person, even though such act, default, injury, loss, expense, damage, deviation, delay, curtailment or inconvenience may have been caused or contributed to: (a) by the act, neglect or default of Conservancy Travel, owners, officers, agents, employees, contractors, and subcontractors, or of any persons for whose acts it would otherwise be responsible, or (b) defects or failures of any aircraft, vessel, automotive vehicle or other equipment or instrumentality under the control of independent suppliers. In addition, Conservancy Travel will not be liable for delays in departure or interruption of your vacation arrangements caused by weather conditions, technical problems of any aircraft, vessel, automotive vehicle, or other equipment or instrumentality, strikes, war, terrorist activity, civil commotion, act of God, perils of the sea, harbors, rivers, or other navigable water, act of any governmental or ruling authority, epidemic, collision, stranding, fire, any abrupt or unexpected increase in the cost of fuel or shortage of fuel, or any other cause or circumstance beyond Conservancy Travel responsibility or control. The right is reserved to substitute accommodations or modes of transportation and to make any changes in the itinerary where deemed necessary or caused by changes in air schedules. On tours of this type, it is not possible to accommodate persons with severe health problems or physical disabilities. It is the participant’s, or guardian’s, responsibility to judge the appropriateness of these travel activities to his or her physical capabilities; however, Conservancy Travel reserves the right to require your physician’s permission for travel. Conservancy Travel takes no responsibility for special arrangements or problems incurred by participants physically unable to participate in the planned activities. No refund can be made for absence from the tour unless arrangements are made at the time of booking. The right is reserved to decline to accept or retain any person as a participant for any reason, which affects the operation of the tour or the rights and welfare or enjoyment of the other participants. Conservancy Travel will not discriminate against any individual because of race, sex, creed, or nationality. In no event will Conservancy Travel be responsible for incidental, consequential or special damage or loss suffered by any person. Conservancy Travel maximum liability, for any reason whatsoever, will be limited to the amount paid to Conservancy Travel for its services. In issuing tickets and coupons for transportation of the purchaser by any means and making arrangements for hotel or other accommodation, Conservancy Travel is not acting as principal but only as agent for the companies, corporations, or persons providing or offering the means of transportation and accommodation. To the extent Conservancy Travel shall not be acting as an agent, as stated above, it shall be deemed to be acting as an agent of the purchasers in arranging or booking transportation and accommodation.

Waiver: Any failure by either party at any time, or from time to time, to enforce or to require the strict keeping and performance of any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of any such terms or conditions and shall not affect or impair such terms and conditions in any way or the right of such party at any time to avail itself of such remedies as it has for the breach or breaches of such terms and conditions.
