However, no additional charge will be made less than 30 clear days before the date of commencement of your tour, except in the case of bookings made during that period where additional charges may be made up to. Every effort will be made to avoid any increases to the prices.
  7. Although we are trying to arrange your hotel room, smoking preferences are not guaranteed.
  8. The tour leader or local ground operator who represents Adventure Thirdpole Treks has overriding authority on our tours. By signing our booking form, you agree to do this.

  9. Any complaints with regard to our tours must be immediately brought to the attention of the tour leader, ground operators or hotelier so that the necessary action to rectify the matter can be taken. However, if by the end of the tour you still feel you have a valid complaint you must notify the company, in writing, within 14 days of the end of your tour with Adventure Thirdpole Treks.
  10. These are adventure holidays mostly in developing countries where lower standards of infrastructure and efficiency often prevail and we can only accept your booking on the understanding that you are aware of the risks involved in this kind of travel. The company cannot be held responsible, unless as a direct result of negligence, of any mishap to you or your property. Route and hotel changes may be necessary and will always be at the discretion of the trek leaders and Adventure Thirdpole Treks. They do not constitute an alteration of your holiday and will not be compensated.
  11. It is essential that you obtain suitable holiday insurance before joining one of our tours. This must cover you fully against repatriation costs should you become too ill to continue with the tour and must, above all, cover the evacuation of yourself from remote regions, should the need arise.
