Terms and conditions
KEFALONIA Vacation Services Booking Terms
1. Insurance
Adequate travel insurance is a condition of your contract with us. You must be satisfied that your insurance fully covers all your personal requirements including, but not limited to, cancellation charges, medical expenses and repatriation in the event of accident or illness. If you choose to partake in arrangements without adequate insurance cover, we will not be liable for any losses howsoever arising, in respect of which insurance cover would otherwise have been available.
2. Changes by You
If you wish to change any part of your confirmed arrangements, you must inform us in writing as soon as possible. This should be done by the first named person on the booking. Whilst we will do our best to assist, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to meet your requested change. Where we are unable to assist you and you do not wish to proceed with the original booking we will treat this as a cancellation by you. This must be arranged through the relevant booking platform.
Please Note: Certain arrangements may not be amended after they have been confirmed and any alteration could incur a cancellation charge of up to 100% of that part of the arrangements (details are given in the descriptions of the arrangements in question).
3. Accommodation Reservations
If we tell you about a major change after you book your accommodation, you can accept the new arrangements offered by us which will be either the same or similar standard and priced at the date of the change, if we are able to offer you one; or you can cancel with us and receive a full refund.
4. Force Majeure
Except where otherwise expressly stated in these booking conditions we will not be liable or pay you compensation if our contractual obligations to you are affected by any event which we or the supplier(s) of the service(s) in question could not, even with all due care, foresee or avoid. These events can include, but are not limited to war, threat of war, civil strife terrorist activity and its consequences or the threat of such activity, riot, the act of any government or other national or local authority including port or river authorities, industrial dispute, lock closure, natural or nuclear disaster, fire, chemical or biological disaster and adverse weather, sea, ice and river conditions and all similar events outside our or the supplier(s) concerned’s control.
5. Special Requests
Any special requests must be advised to us at the time of booking. You should then confirm your requests in writing. Whilst every effort will be made by us to try and arrange your reasonable special requests, we cannot guarantee that they will be fulfilled. The fact that a special request has been noted on your confirmation invoice or any other documentation or that it has been passed on to the supplier is not confirmation that the request will be met. Failure to meet any special request will not be a breach of contract on our part unless the request has been specifically confirmed. We do not accept bookings that are conditional upon any special request being met.
6. Disabilities And Medical Problems
We are not a specialist disabled excursion provider, but we will do our utmost to cater for any special requirements you may have. If you or any member of your party has any medical problem or disability which may affect your chosen arrangements, please provide us with full details before we confirm your booking so that we can try to advise you as to the suitability of your chosen arrangements. Acting reasonably, if we are unable to properly accommodate the needs of the person(s) concerned, we will not confirm your booking or if you did not give us full details at the time of booking, we will cancel it and impose applicable cancellation charges when we become aware of these details.
7. Complaints
We make every effort to ensure that your arrangements run smoothly but if you do have a problem during the performance of your arrangements, please inform your tour guide immediately who will endeavour to put things right. If your complaint is not resolved locally, please contact us by emailing or writing to info@kefaloniavacationservices.com as soon as possible. Failure to do so will affect ours and the applicable supplier’s ability to investigate your complaint, and will affect your rights under this contract. If the problem still cannot be resolved and you wish to complain further, you must send formal written notice of your complaint to us within 28 days of the end of your tour, giving your booking reference and all other relevant information. Please keep your letter concise and to the point. This will assist us to quickly identify your concerns and speed up our response to you.
8. Your Behaviour
Accommodation Reservations
Only you can use your accommodation. You must not let anyone else stay there. You are responsible for any damage to your accommodation or its contents during your stay.
We can refuse to accept you on your holiday or continue dealing with you if we, or someone in authority, believe your behavior (by any form of communication or in person) is disruptive.
If you are disruptive on your holiday we can remove you from your accommodation. You will not be entitled to a refund and we will not provide compensation or meet any costs or expenses.
If you are disruptive you will be responsible for any damages, costs and expenses (including legal expenses) incurred as a result. This can include cleaning, repairing or replacing property lost, damaged or destroyed by you.
Disruptive behavior includes being threatening or abusive, damaging property, upsetting, annoying or disturbing any other visitors, our staff or putting any of them in danger.
9. Our Responsibilities:
We have a duty to select the suppliers of the services making up your booking with us with reasonable skill and care.
We will not be responsible or pay you compensation for any injury, illness, death, loss, damage, expense, cost or other claim of any description if it results from:
• the act(s) and/or omission(s) of the person(s) affected;
• the act(s) and/or omission(s) of a third party unconnected with the provision of the services contracted for and which were unforeseeable or unavoidable; or
• unusual or unforeseeable circumstances beyond ours or our supplier(s) control, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all due care had been exercised; or
• an event which either ourselves or suppliers could not, even with all due care, have foreseen or forestalled.
Please note, we cannot accept any liability for any damage, loss or expense or other sum(s) of any description which on the basis of the information given to us by you concerning your booking prior to our accepting it, we could not have foreseen you would suffer or incur if we breached our contract with you; or any business losses. We will not accept responsibility for services or facilities which do not form part of our agreement or where they are not advertised on our website.
