I understand that Legit Trips will not be responsible for any medical costs associated with an injury I may sustain. 

I agree at all times during the Tour, to abide by and comply with any additional instructions given by my tour guide and I accept that non-compliance may result in injury, death or permanent disability.

I acknowledge that I can fully participate in this Tour. I am fully aware of risks and hazards connected with the Tour, including but not limited to the risks as noted herein and I voluntarily assume full responsibility for any risks of loss, property damage or personal injury, including death, that may be sustained by me, or any loss or damage to property owned by my, as a result of my participation. 

CANCELLATION POLICIES

Due to the unprecedented impact of coronavirus (COVID-19) on the travel industry and our small business, we have updated our Booking Conditions and cancellation policies. The updated terms and conditions below took immediate effect on March 12, 2020.

Travelers who book a trip that must be rescheduled by Legit Trips due to an insurmountable risk to the guests will receive a credit of 100% of all monies paid, toward any future trip with Legit Trips, one year from original trip departure date. You will be notified of any rescheduling via email directly from the Legit Trips owners.  

If you choose to cancel a scheduled Legit Trip itinerary due to your own reasons (ie: contracting COVID, feeling uncertain about travel, etc.) our normal policies apply: Deposits are non-refundable (but are transferable to another person or trip) and additional payments can be refunded if cancelled more than 90 days prior to the trip start date (or per trip policies, some trips can not be cancelled, read the specific trip notes on the website please).  Deposits may only be transferred one time and incur a $100 rebooking fee.

There are no exceptions to this cancellation policy, including reasons related to weather, terrorism, civil strife, airline default, strikes, personal, family or medical emergencies, or any other circumstances beyond our control.  If you cancel because of medical issues, a positive virus test, sickness, quarantine, travel restrictions or warnings, fear of traveling, or any other reason, your booking is subject to this cancellation and refund policy.  Therefore, we suggest you purchase travel insurance.

Further, we cannot provide refunds for any unused portion of your trip if you are quarantined, refused services due to exhibiting symptoms, test positive for infectious disease, or refuse to comply with health and safety standards for our trip, and therefore cannot complete the itinerary. This includes if you are unable to board a plane to your trip destination or return flight home due to symptoms of an illness or if you are denied entry or if you are required to quarantine. 

Legit Trips are hosted by a trip host. The decision of the trip host is final on all matters likely to affect the safety or well-being of all guests on the trip. If you fail to comply with a decision made by a trip host, or interfere with the well-being or mobility of the group, the trip host may direct you to leave the trip immediately, with no right of refund. Legit Trips may also elect not to allow you on any future trips, even if they are already booked.

We strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance that covers cancellation, personal liability, loss of luggage and personal effects, evacuation, and repatriation. We strongly recommend that participants consider the purchase of “cancel for any reason” coverage. Our preferred travel insurance provider can be found on legittrips.com

AIR TRAVEL SCHEDULES

Legit Trips is not liable for mistakes or errors in airfare bookings made by the traveler or any independent third parties. It is up to the traveler to book the correct arrival and departure flight from the trip start and end cities. All travelers should speak to a Legit Trips representative before booking their flight. Any airline charges or change fees are the sole financial responsibility of the traveler.

Legit Trips is not responsible for any change to airline schedules or flight numbers or for any additional expenses or loss that may arise from airline strikes and/or airline, airport, or weather delays. Legit Trips will not reimburse travelers for any additional expenses incurred as a result of such events or delays.

ALCOHOL AND ILLEGAL SUBSTANCES

If I use, consume, or am under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs prior to or while engaging in the activities or anytime during the Tour, I ASSUME AND ACCEPT ALL RISKS, DANGERS, AND HAZARDS THAT MAY RESULT FROM THIS INCLUDING THE POSSIBILITY OF PERSONAL INJURY, DEATH, PROPERTY DAMAGE, AND LOSS, even in the event of negligence or fault by Legit Trips or third parties, and will indemnify Legit Trips from any and all liability for any damage to property or personal injury to any third party, resulting from my participation in the Tour, while, during, or after consumption of illegal drugs or alcohol.

I AM AWARE OF THE RISKS, DANGERS, AND HAZARDS ASSOCIATED WITH THE TOUR.

I am not relying on any oral or written representations or statements made by Legit Trips about the safety of the Tour other than what is stated in this Liability Waiver.
