BOOKING TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Adventure Thamserku Treks & Expeditions Pvt. Ltd. has promulgated its terms and conditions for all its trips - trekking, mountaineering, hiking, rafting, wildlife safaris, mountain biking - and any other services operated by the company.

Before completing the registration form and signing the declaration, please read these terms & conditions carefully. They set out your agreement with Adventure Thamserku and contain important information.

  • At the time of booking and completing your form a non-refundable deposit of $US 350 per person is payable. The balance of the trip is to be paid in full at least 40 days prior to departure. At least 2 weeks prior to departure, we require the booking form and a photocopy of your passport, so we can start processing all the logistics.
  • Reservations can be accepted as late as 2 weeks before departure but full payment must accompany the booking form. Earlier bookings are strongly advised.


YOUR TRIP
Adventure Thamserku operates trips in regions where standards of accommodation, transport, safety, hygiene, food, medical facilities and other infrastructure may be lower than those you normally expect. Please keep in mind that Nepal is a third world country, and bear the above in mind when making your booking,

Travelling with Adventure Thamserku requires a certain measure of flexibility, good humour, and an understanding that the itinerary, accommodation and modes of transport may be changed without notice, due to circumstances beyond Adventure Thamserku's control. By signing the Booking form you agree to Adventure Thamserku making such necessary changes without liability.


LIABILITY & ADVENTURE THAMSERKU'S RESPONSIBILITIES
Where Adventure Thamserku provides a service it will do so with due care and skill. Adventure Thamserku is not responsible for the acts and omissions of others, including airlines, accommodation providers nor are we responsible for any loss, damage or expense (including loss of money paid in advance) which you may incur as a consequence of the acts and omissions of others.
Adventure Thamserku will not accept responsibility or liability for any passenger who contravenes any law or regulation of any country visited within the confines of the trip. Any independent arrangements that you make are entirely at your own risk.


FORCE MAJEURE
'Force Majeure' means any event which Adventure Thamserku could not, even with all due care, foresee or avoid. Force Majeure covers events such as war or the threat of war, riot, civil strife, terrorist activity, industrial disputes, disease, industrial or nuclear disaster, adverse weather conditions, fire and any other similar events which are beyond our control. In the case of Force Majeure, Adventure Thamserku will not accept liability, and reserves the right to change and cancel trips at their discretion.

  • If a client prefers to stay in a different hotel in Kathmandu this could be possible but it would have to   be negotiated when the booking and final payment is made.



CANCELLATION BY ADVENTURE THAMSERKU
In the event of Adventure Thamserku cancelling a trip as a result of a Force Majeure, or government travel advice clients will be offered alternative arrangements. If you agree to the alternative, and the price of the alternative booking is less than the original booking, we will refund the difference. If you do not accept alternative arrangements, we will refund all payments (less transaction fees). However Adventure Thamserku will not be liable for any additional costs incurred by you.

To guarantee the price will not change after a booking is made, early payment is an option.


COMPLAINTS
If you have any complaint that cannot be dealt with immediately with your tour leader, or you are not satisfied with the response, please notify us in writing within 10 days of the completion of your trip. We will do our best to resolve the problem.


TRAVEL INSURANCE
Insurance is compulsory on all Adventure Thamserku trips. Your policy must cover accidents, medical expenses, and emergency evacuation including helicopter rescue, air ambulance, and personal liability. Adventure Thamserku also recommends your insurance policy covers cancellation, curtailment and loss of luggage and personal effects. You are required to carry proof of insurance with you, and to produce it if requested by Adventure Thamserku employees. For our climbing and mountaineering trips, you must be covered for mountaineering activities (use of ropes and ice axe, etc). Please note that most standard travel insurance policies DO NOT cover you for mountaineering activities. We can recommend an international company that does cover mountaineering.

Please read the trip notes carefully and pay heed to the trip gradings. Contact Adventure Thamserku for advice in order to make a suitable trek selection.
