RESERVATION AND DEPOSIT Prices are subject to airline availability at the time of booking. Please forward a deposit of $99 per person to Wendy Wu Tours or your travel agent to arrive at Wendy Wu Tours within 48 hours of receiving confirmation that the company is holding space for you. Wendy Wu Tours reserves the right to correct any errors in rates quoted or calculated, or any omissions made at any time during your booking. Any verbal quote given is only an indication of the final price and is subject to confirmation in writing.

JOINING YOUR TOUR Due to airline schedules, travellers from some cities may need to make their own way to another capital city to join the tour. Due to constantly changing airline schedules some travellers may require pre- or posttour accommodation, an overnight stopover or have a lengthy transit en route to their destination. Any cost for accommodation, transportation or meals incurred will be at the passengers’ own expense. Although Wendy Wu Tours makes every effort to use the airlines noted, an alternative airline may be used due to flight schedule changes or lack of availability.

RECEIPT OF DEPOSIT By sending a deposit the client agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions set forth in this brochure. The client also agrees that: • • • •

All persons are fit and physically able to partake unaided in their chosen group tour as per the itinerary outlined in the Tour Dossier. All persons travelling on a tour extension or tailor-made itinerary are fit and physically able to partake unaided in their chosen itinerary. All parties acknowledge the physical demands and hazards involved in the tour they will be undertaking and have chosen to participate at their own risk. All parties understand that any medical or dietary information provided to Wendy Wu Tours does not, under any circumstances, make Wendy Wu Tours liable if a particular condition exacerbates while on tour.

BALANCE OF PAYMENT The final balance of the travel arrangements is due at Wendy Wu Tours no later than 75 days prior to the confirmed tour departure date as confirmed by acceptance of the booking. Failure to pay in full by the due date may result in additional costs which will be passed on as a late payment fee of no less than $30 per booking or cancellation at the discretion of the company. Wendy Wu Tours reserves the right to request a partial payment of the final balance more than 75 days prior to departure need to be issued by our office or by our operators overseas. Payments by credit cards will incur a fee.

FEES AND CHARGES All group tour prices indicated in the brochure are based on group travel and any deviation from the set itinerary will incur additional airline ticket costs (Breakaway Fee) of up to $100 per person. Arrangements such as transfers, accommodation, etc. outside the set group arrangements/dates are at an additional cost and are not covered by the Breakaway Fee.

AIRLINE FUEL LEVY SURCHARGE Since 2004 all airlines servicing flights to Asia have been charging a fuel levy surcharge, on top of the normal airline ticket price, in order to cover the increased cost of aviation fuel. As fuel prices have fluctuated, so too has the amount the airlines charge for this levy. This amount is detailed against each applicable tour featured in this brochure and will also be advised to you at the time of your booking and is subject to change until your airline ticket is issued.

AMENDMENT & BOOKING FEES The following fees will apply: Air tickets are non-refundable and nonchangeable. Amendments to confirmed and deposited itineraries outside of 30 days prior to departure where the value of the booking is decreased - $25 per change. Amendments within 30 days of departure - $50 per change. Transferring between tours (outside 60 days) - $100 per person. Transfer fees must be paid at the time of change. Transferring between tours (within 60 days) – See ‘Cancellation by Customer’ for applicable fees and details. Once a booking is confirmed name transfers are not permitted as this will be regarded as a cancellation.

CANCELLATION BY WENDY WU TOURS Wendy Wu Tours reserves the right to cancel or vary a tour prior to departure due to insufficient numbers. In such an event alternative guaranteed travel dates will be offered. Should these options not be acceptable Wendy Wu Tours will refund the full price paid, less visa cost. If a tour is cancelled or varied prior to departure due to unforeseeable circumstances such as, but not restricted to, severe weather conditions or force majeure, Wendy Wu Tours will refund all monies prior to departure less visa cost and any cancellation fees levied by airlines and other third parties. Unforeseeable circumstances such as force majeure, adverse weather, flight rescheduling, hotel overbooking and faults with transportation or road conditions may also have an effect on the tour itinerary after the commencement date. Any decision made in respect of tour services by independent operators or airlines to re-route or amend the itinerary due to any of the above or similar circumstances is at the discretion of the tour service provider and Wendy Wu Tours shall not be liable for any claim whatsoever arising from such events.

REFUSAL OF CARRIAGE Wendy Wu Tours retains the right to remove customers from our group tours for reasons that impact on the enjoyment or safety of other tour members, such as, but not limited to, the physical, medical or mental inability of customers to undertake the arrangements of the tour, unsocial or unruly behaviour, or the carriage of prohibited substances and materials.

All passengers will receive a link to download a copy of the Tour Dossier with quote and deposit documents. If you or any member of your party has any medical conditions, dietary requirement/ food allergy, or disability which may affect you while travelling, you must provide us with full details in writing prior to making your booking so that we can assist you in considering the suitability of your arrangements. You must also promptly advise us if there are any changes to your health that may affect your holiday after your booking has been confirmed.

Tipping amounts will range from AU$61 to AU$239 per person based on the tour itinerary and length and are subject to change at any time. Yangtze River Cruise operators have a compulsory service levy which is paid in Chinese Yuan immediately upon boarding the cruise. The amount payable is included in the package price for group tours which include a cruise. Tipping for all other independent travel is not compulsory and is at the customer’s own discretion.

It is recommended that where seatbelts are available customers must use them and remain seated at all times while the vehicle is moving. As such, customers acknowledge that seatbelts may not be available and therefore travel at their own risk.

Single Rail Compartment Option fees are applicable for sole use for any rail component and cannot be waived. Due to rail booking regulations, sole use of overnight soft sleeper compartments on rail journeys is no longer available on our Treasures of Vietnam & China tour.
