light pgrades uoni ha e a long standing relationship with o er 70 airlines so we’re often first to hear about special upgrade offers. Our preferred airline partners offer you the opportunity to travel in premium cabins with award-winning service and on-board entertainment. Not only this but many also offer the convenience of regional departures or connections, allowing you to begin your journey closer to home. Many even allow upgrades on certain sectors of your trip, such as an upgrade on the way out, or way home only. Selected tickets include the added advantage of a chauffeur driver service to the airport.

Airport lounges You can easily add airport lounge access to start your wedding in style. Lounge passes starting from as little as 40 per couple but we recommend our Wedding Package airport lounge access starts from 90 per couple and includes a bottle of Champagne and mini spa treatments.

Private transfers Many of our destinations already include private transfers, but you can easily add these to simplify the journey from the airport to your hotel, so it’s just the two of you.

Experiences We’ve searched the globe for authentic, exciting and romantic experiences to make your wedding extra special. In Saint Lucia soar over tiny Caribbean villages in a private helicopter and witness the astounding Twin Pitons; In Kenya drift over the plains in a hot air balloon at sunrise and in the Maldives, have a desert island experience in a beach villa with your own private chef and waiter on hand to serve your four-course dinner on the beach.

General information & when to go Weddings and renewal of vows in Mauritius

Flying time Port Louis 12 hours

Your wedding in Mauritius includes a wedding co-ordinator, affidavits (completed in Mauritius), registrar’s fees, private car to and from Port Louis to complete wedding paperwork. Renewal of vows packages are also available. Please see your Personal Travel Expert for details. See pages 90-91 for full legal requirements.

Time difference GMT+4 hours. Visa info Visa not required Currency: Mauritian rupee Language: Mauritian Creole, English and French.

For such a special occasion you could consider combining Mauritius with some other destainations. Our favourite combinations with Mauritius include Dubai and South Africa, but for something a bit different, how about Reunion Island for adventure and stunning scenery, See your Personal Travel Expert for ideas on how to put together this extra special holiday.

As Mauritius is located in the southern hemisphere, seasons are the opposite to those in the UK. Temperatures peak in the summer months, averaging between high 20s and low 30s, whilst the winter season is slightly cooler. Between July and August, the evenings can be cool - so a light sweater may be required when sitting outdoors. There’s no real rainy season in Mauritius, however there can be short downpours throughout the year, though they never last long. The main difference between the east and west coasts of Mauritius is the winds – the east coast experiences trade winds in winter which can actually be a welcome relief from the balmy temperatures. You’ll find that the hotels on the east coast are designed with this in mind, with public areas protected from coastal winds. Jan °C

Thailand’s peak season is between November and February when the climate is drier and slightly cooler whilst the hottest period is April to May. May to October tends to have higher rainfall but there should still be plenty of sunshine and this is the time to benefit from the greatest value and less crowded beaches. There are seasonal variations between beach resorts, for example, the east coast beach resorts of Koh Samui and Koh Phangan generally have more sun and less rain from May through until June. Northern Thailand is generally cooler than Bangkok in the winter and hotter in the summer.

requently asked questions

What is included in our wedding

Can we have more than one copy of the marriage certificate

Free weddings may not always include the same items as paid for weddings and are not usually combined with hotel special offers. Wedding package inclusions are correct at time of print ct 2014 however they may be subject to change.

YES, copies can be obtained by taking the original marriage certificate to your solicitor who will certify copies for you. Alternatively, when you are in resort, please request an additional copy from the marriage officer. In some destinations, the overseas authorities complete paperwork after the wedding has taken place. Generally, your original marriage certificate will be sent to you within four months.

Who will condu our ceremony The majority of our weddings are conducted by a marriage officer whose title varies depending upon the resort ie: Australia will be a Celebrant, Barbados will be a Minister or Registrar. Where it is possible to be married by a Minister, the ceremony will be non denominational unless otherwise stated.

oliday Information

The following terms and conditions (‘booking conditions’) form the basis of your contract with Kuoni Travel Limited. Please read them carefully as they set out our respective rights and obligations. By asking us to confirm your booking, we are entitled to assume that you have had the opportunity to read and have read these terms and conditions and agree to them. Except where otherwise stated, these booking conditions only apply to holiday arrangements which you book with us in the UK and which we agree to make, provide or perform (as applicable) as part of our contract with you. All references in these booking conditions to ‘holiday’, ‘booking’, ‘contract’, ‘package’, ‘tour’ or ‘arrangements’ mean such holiday arrangements unless otherwise stated. In these booking conditions, ‘you’ and ‘your’ means all persons named on the booking (including anyone who is added or substituted at a later date) or any of them, as the context requires and ‘lead name’ means the person who makes the booking. ‘We’, ‘us’ and ‘our’ means Kuoni Travel Limited. All weddings are subject to availability. Please note that the packages featured in this brochure are for travel 01 anuary 2015 to 31 ecember 2015. In order to book a wedding package the wedding couple must already have a holiday confirmed with Kuoni as we do not sell weddings only. Check with individual airlines for policies on transportation of a wedding dress.

Before you book 1.1 C S U The holidays contained within this brochure are for departures between 01 anuary 2015 to 31 ecember 2015. e hope that your Kuoni holiday will live up to your expectations so it is very important that you choose the right holiday for you. Space in our brochures to give detailed information is limited but there is more information online at www.kuoni.co.uk and our staff are always happy to advise and give you their professional opinion. our wedding date is on re uest and cannot be confirmed at the time you boo your holiday. ou will be ad ised of any wedding date we are able to offer. n rare occasions it may not be possible to confirm a wedding during your holiday. If we are unable to provide you with a suitable alternative travel date or destination we will issue you with a full refund of any monies paid on your wedding booking. Family/ friends that book holidays with other companies will incur charges if they then have to change or cancel their travel arrangements. We cannot accept responsibility for any amendment or cancellation charges incurred by other parties who have not booked through us. 1.2 C U When you decide to confirm your holiday with us, please ensure that you cancel any other flights which may have been held for the same dates airlines, by other Tour perators Tra el gents. Failure to do so, may result in the airline subsequently cancelling the flights we have booked, and additional costs being incurred to re-book. 1.3 C U S S Where you book cruise only arrangements with us (i.e. just the cruise without any flights, pre or post cruise accommodation or other on shore services which you ask us to arrange for you), your contract will be with the cruise operator (for whom we act as agent) and not us. The cruise operator’s terms and conditions will apply to your booking in addition to the relevant sections of these conditions. These terms and conditions can be found on the cruise operator’s website and we can also provide you with a copy at the time of boo ing and on re uest, n administration fee of 30 will be payable for cruise only bookings. The pro isions of the Con ention elating to the Carriage of assengers and Their uggage by Sea 1974 thens Con ention as amended by the 2002 rotocol and C egulation 392 2009 apply to your cruise. This means any liability we or the cruise operator may have to you will be limited in accordance with this Convention as amended and egulation.

1.4 T S Choosing the right hotel can be a dilemma, especially when travelling to long haul destinations and whilst most hotels have official star ratings locally, in some cases official ratings cannot always be relied on. Subse uently we ha e categorised all hotels throughout the brochure as three, four or five star to give a general guide. owe er, standards can ary between hotels of the same class in different countries, and even in the same country. For example city hotels which often cater for business as well as leisure travellers may well have generally higher standards than a beach resort hotel where the whole atmosphere will tend to be more relaxed. It is important to read carefully the individual hotel descriptions. A comparison of the extra night cost shown in the price box against each hotel will also give some idea of how hotels in the same resort/country are likely to compare in terms of general standards. 1.5 S S It is an unfair fact of life that single travellers often have to pay over the odds for a room, often up to twice the price each person in a twin room might ha e to pay. So we ha e negotiated some super deals and are delighted to offer you the widest choice of single saver offers available on the UK longhaul market today. Please check in the Kuoni Plus box on each page for these very special offers. owe er note that the standard and location of single rooms is not always as good as that of twin/double rooms even when you pay the single supplement. n safari, e cursions and touring holidays single rooms cannot always be guaranteed. Supplements paid will be refunded if a single room previously confirmed is not available. i) Why are single travellers asked to pay more for their room? If a single person occupies a double room they will usually be as ed to pay e tra a single supplement . otels price their rooms, as doubles or family rooms and they do not reduce the rates if it is occupied by a single person. The costs to the hotel of providing the room – heating, lighting, cleaning etc are the same regardless of how many people occupy that room. This also applies to selfcatering units where, for example, three people may choose to occupy accommodation priced for four. ii) Why are single rooms sometimes smaller than doubles or family rooms? otel design may mean that single rooms are smaller and sometimes less well appointed. While there is normally a supplement for these rooms, the overall cost will usually be less than when a single person occupies a double room. We do not make additional or excessive profits from these supplements. The prices we charge reflect the costs of under occupancy of the rooms contracted to us by the hotel. 1.6 T U S Accommodation in all hotels, regardless of the rating, is in standard rooms (sometimes named superior/deluxe) based on twins or doubles unless otherwise stated. 1.7 T U S A third or fourth person sharing a room either shares existing beds or has an extra bed (which may be of camp-bed style) placed in a double/twin room. As conditions may be cramped you may wish to consider booking two rooms. 1. T T C If you are travelling with young children, it is important to note that child seats are not provided for transfers and the legislation varies from country to country. If you specifically require a car seat, we advise you to either take your own with you, or call our Sales team, and we will do our utmost to try and arrange this for you - there may well be an additional charge for this. 1.9 C CC T ST S Where we offer ‘free child accommodation stays’ at many of our

hotels, these are generally based on sharing existing beds in the room. If you require a separate bed, you must advise us at the time of booking, as there may well be a charge added to your booking, or this charge may be payable locally. Any meal plan charges will still apply. 1.10 U ST S inimum stays are re uired at certain hotels for certain periods. Where applicable these will be advised at time of booking. 1.11 T TU enerally hotel rooms will be a ailable between appro imately noon and 3pm, and are to be acated between 10am and noon, irrespective of your arrival or departure times, unless we have stated otherwise. Should you wish your room to be ready prior to noon on your day of arri al or a ailable after 10am for an afternoon or evening departure, it is possible to reserve the room at the time of booking at a cost no greater than the extra night price quoted on the brochure page. 1.12 U US U S S When the offer of a room upgrade is mentioned in Kuoni Plus, it is not necessarily an upgrade to the next category featured in our brochure, but usually an upgrade to the next category of room (not suite) available within the hotel. We will of course do everything possible to arrange the provision of a double bed for honeymoon couples but it is not always possible to guarantee this and the provision of a double bed does not constitute a term of your contract with us. Anniversary offers only apply if you’re celebrating your Sil er 25th or olden 50th wedding anni ersary while on holiday. emember to ad ise us if it your honeymoon or Sil er olden anni ersary and to ta e a copy of your marriage certificate with you on holiday. In order to qualify for a Kuoni Plus offer, your stay and/or holiday must be started and completed within the date band specified, under the individual offers as stated. For hotel sale discounts and free night offers, where there is a minimum stay requirement, the nights spent at the hotel must be consecutive. The Kuoni Plus offers shown are correct at the time of printing this brochure, but they may change at short notice, and not all offers can be combined. These offers are frequently updated so for the most up to date and available offers, please contact your travel agent and/or our sales team, or check on-line to check which offers apply to your holiday. 1.13 T U S T U TS ost of our tours are not suitable if you ha e any disability or have reduced mobility (including being confined to a wheelchair). Therefore, in the interest of safety and comfort for all groups as a whole, you must be fit enough to participate or alternatively you must have an able bodied carer to assist you on the tour. 1.14 T S At certain hotels we offer a free lunch, dinner, or hotel bar credit and at other hotels we may offer up to a 20 discount on food and/or beverage extras usually payable at the end of your stay. This offer is not available if you pay by credit card, nor is a cash alternative available. 1.15 US T S Where we specify bonus night offers this will not necessarily mean bonus nights are multiplied if you book a longer duration, therefore, please ensure you ask at the time of booking to clarify the number of bonus nights you will receive. 1.16 C US T S C U S Some hotels specified for couples’ cater for mi ed se couples only and in some countries, such as Sri an a and ubai same sex couples are illegal. We recommend that if you are a same sex couple, you thoroughly research your chosen hotel/destination before you boo , to ensure it is suitable. otels often place

Some of these e periences and acti ities may require you to be in good physical and mental health and, by booking with us, you confirm that you and your party are in good health with no medical history that would make it dangerous for you to participate. ou must obser e safety instructions at all times. e will only accept responsibility for these experiences and activities in accordance with these booking conditions. The experiences and activities are subject to minimum numbers, and may be cancelled at short notice. In such circumstance, you will receive a full refund of monies paid for the excursion or activity in question. Experiences which do not form part of your package: We are also able to offer assistance and reserve certain experiences and activities for you, for which you pay locally. In these circumstances, we only act as a booking agent for the operator or the e cursion or acti ity concerned. our contract will therefore be with the local operator which provides it and it does not from part of your contracted holiday arrangements with us. The contract will be subject to the local operator’s terms and conditions, some of which may exclude or limit its liability to you, and will be governed by local law and jurisdiction. Kuoni accepts no liability for any breach of contract or negligent act or omission of any excursion/ activity provider. 1.20 C ffers are subject to a ailability of triple or uad rooms. nfants under the age of 2 years on the date of return flight pay from 45 for uropean flights, 199 for longhaul flights and 249 for ustralia ew ealand flights when tra elling in economy. lease note meals are not provided for infants. Infant charges are based on an infant sitting on an adults lap and additional charges will apply for infants requiring their own seat. Any charge for a baby cot in the room and food are paid by the guest direct to the hotel and there is no entitlement to a separate seat on the aircraft if the flight is full. International airline regulations allow only one infant per adult. We do not allow holidays for children under 10 on escorted tours, coach tours or on safari unless in pri ate minibus . Some destinations, owing to their lac of special child or medical facilities are also not suitable for very young children but we would be happy to advise which hotels or resorts we think suit your re uirements best. See the rele ant price bo where any specific minimum age restrictions are given. 1.21 U 1 ’S T T UT TS lease note, under 1 year olds tra elling without their parents or other adults, (including friends’ parents) will need to have written authority from their parents and translated where necessary, with both notarised. This is necessary for certain countries only and you should ensure that you check the specific requirements of the relevant country to which you are travelling, as you may be refused entry. 1.22 U C S irtually all countries ha e public holidays, religious or otherwise. The festivities may temporarily disrupt your holiday and some religious holidays such as amadan, which affects many uslim countries may result in a reduction of facilities and entertainment. thers are somewhat chaotic but great fun to be a part of. Kuoni may not have details of public holidays, therefore this will be checked when requesting your preferred date. We advise that guests do not book until the wedding date is confirmed. 1.23 C ST S arious e ents are organised in most towns throughout the season, and we therefore suggest that you thoroughly research your chosen area before booking. 1.24 T T U STS any hotels, especially in cities and major resorts, accommodate conventions and conferences.

1.25 S S S ost of the destinations we feature in this brochure are a ailable all year round. Some do ha e uieter off pea ’ periods when you can take advantage of uncrowded beaches and more personal attention from hotel staff at excellent prices. At this time it may be necessary for hotels to scale down the size of some of their facilities, such as restaurants, to match demand. Similarly, during peak periods hotels experience full occupancy which may result in a livelier atmosphere and slower service in busier facilities.

1.30 C S TS It is a common practice for scheduled airlines to use a code share system, which may include you flying with a partner airline. Where this situation arises, it is not classed as a major change.

1.26 S eals if included are based on table d’h te menus, or a meal voucher system unless specified otherwise in the brochure text. olidays which include main meals generally commence with dinner on the day of arrival at your hotel and terminate with breakfast (on half board) or lunch (on full board) on the day of departure. All Inclusive packages generally finish at check-out time on your day of departure between 10am and noon. fter this time, payment for any additional meals must be made direct to the hotel. o refunds on meals not ta en can be gi en. Special diets of any kind (including vegetarian) can seldom be catered for ade uately within the constraints of a table d’h te menu and cannot be guaranteed. We would therefore strongly recommend that anyone with special requirements takes a holiday where no meals (or only breakfast) are included and simply buys the most acceptable dishes from the à la carte menu available locally. Where breakfast is included this will more commonly be a continental breakfast, although full breakfasts are provided at certain hotels. Please ask at the time of booking if this is important to you. Supplements shown in our brochures for optional meal plans offer you the opportunity of being able to budget for extra costs before you go. In some cases you may find the cost of the meal cheaper locally, however we regret that it will not be possible to refund the difference either during or after your holiday. Pre booked meals may be subject to dining in the main restaurant only and on occasion it may be necessary to be seated with other hotel guests. If you have paid a half board supplement it may be possible in some hotels to as for a credit from the table d’h te dinner to be used against a meal in an la carte restaurant. owe er the alue of the voucher will generally be considerably less than the half board supplement included in your holiday price. 1.27 U U T A longhaul flight is generally not a joyride when flying in economy class on scheduled or charter flights. Flights are often full, your choice of seats may not be available, and it may not be possible to obtain seats together. In many cases a choice of upgrade options may be available, to give you a more comfortable journey at a reasonable supplement. 1.2 TS T U STS, S C T We strongly recommend (particularly if you are flying economy class), that you check in early if you have particular seat requests. Kuoni has no control over the allocation of seats by the airline and even if a request has been made with the airline to prebook seats, no guarantee can be made that they will still be available on departure. The provision of particular seats does not constitute a term of your contract with us. Please note airlines operate both older and more modern aircraft within their fleet. We regret we cannot guarantee the type of aircraft you will travel on as this may be subject to change and general availability. Although some airlines offer the facility to book seats online, this is not always possible when booking a holiday through us, as the holidays we offer are based on special Tour perator fares. n accordance with U directi e C no. 2111 2005, we are required to bring to your attention the existence of a ‘Community List’ which contains details of air carriers that are subject to an operating ban within the EU Community. The Community list is available for inspection at http://ec.europa.eu/transport/air-ban/ list_en.htm We are required to advise you of the actual carrier(s) (or, if the actual carrier(s) is not known, the likely carrier(s)) that will operate your flight(s) at the time of booking. We do this by listing carriers to be used or likely to be used on the relevant brochure pages and/ or your holiday confirmation invoice. Any changes to the actual airline after you have received your tickets will be notified to you as soon as possible and in all cases at check-in or at the boarding gate. Where we are only able to inform you of the likely carrier(s) at the time of booking, we shall inform you of the identity of the actual carrier(s) as soon as we become aware of this. Any change to the operating carrier(s) after your booking has been confirmed will be notified to you as soon as possible. If the carrier with whom you have a confirmed reservation becomes subject to an operating ban as above as a result of which we/ the carrier are unable to offer you a suitable alternative the provisions of ‘If we change or cancel your holiday’ will apply. 1.29 CT TS The flight routings used in connection with our holidays may be used on special fares which do not necessarily take the most direct route. Some itineraries re uire a change of aircraft en route. flight that is described as direct is one where there is no need to change aircraft during the journey. owe er stops may be made en route for refuelling or to let passengers on and or off. etails of any stops will be gi en on your itinerary where er possible. owe er, should

The deposit at the time of boo ing is 150 per person or 10 of the total holiday cost, whichever is the greater plus the cost of the airfare. owe er, it may occasionally be necessary to charge a higher deposit due to a fluctuation in airfares, details of which would be advised to you at the time of booking. Any changes to destination / routing will be subject to availability and will incur the loss of the original deposit collected. ate and name changes are permitted, subject to availability and the relevant charges imposed as per the individual airlines own policies (details available on request). Any changes made may also result in additional charges due to an increase in airfare or charges imposed. 1.32 C T TS We provide these to destinations where there are usually no direct scheduled flights, and/or insufficient capacity on these services to meet demand. A charter flight is usually the cheapest and quickest way of reaching the particular destination. owe er, it should be noted that leg room is slightly less than in economy on some scheduled flights. 1.33 S The majority of airlines have introduced a total smoking ban on most or all of their flights and many hotels also now have a nonsmoking policy in hotel rooms and public areas. Please ask at the time of booking if this information is important to you. 1.34 S C U STS Where a special request eg. diet, room location, twin or double bedded room, a particular facility at a hotel, flight seat requests and/or particular meals etc. is an important factor in your choice of holiday, you must advise us when the booking is made. We are happy to pass your request on to the hotel, airline or other supplier but cannot guarantee that it will be accommodated. We will also pass on any dietary requests to airlines but we recommend that you check directly with the airline once your tickets have been issued. The provision of any special request does not constitute a term of your contract with us. Confirmation that a special request has been noted or passed on to the supplier or the inclusion of the special request on your confirmation invoice or any other documentation is not confirmation that the request will be met.

1.36 CU S C S Excursion or meal packages which are offered in this brochure are not always cheaper than buying the same arrangements locally. It is often the case that these packages are offered for the convenience of being both booked and paid for in the UK. The cost of any unused tours within excursion packages may not be refunded. 1.37 C U C S S We cannot accept responsibility for any items you may purchase locally ie: jewellery/furniture etc and the quality and value of such cannot be guaranteed.

A group transfer is generally a shared transfer and the type of vehicle used will normally be dependent upon the size of the group, with stops being made en route to drop off/pick up other clients and therefore, the actual duration of your transfer will be dependent upon this. Alternatively, in many destinations, you have the choice of upgrading to your own private transfer at the appropriate cost, details on request. 1.39 T World weather is becoming more erratic and unpredictable and we cannot be held responsible for disruption to your holiday due to bad or unusual weather conditions. 1.40 U ST We pride ourselves on the quality and friendly professionalism of our staff.

Should this apply we will inform you at the time of booking and calculate the price in anticipation that seats will be available in the specific airline booking class to which our specially negotiated airfares apply. We will issue an invoice recording the arrangements reserved for you and will take a deposit. A contract between us will then come into existence on the basis that the price payable will be that applicable when the airline releases the seats and the timings and other flight details will be those confirmed at that time which may be different to those advised at the time of booking.. When the airline seats become available to book we will tell you the price and other flight details and gi e you 7 days to tell us whether you wish to continue with the booking on the basis of the confirmed price and other details or cancel and receive a full refund. If you wish to continue with the booking, we will issue a revised invoice. In the event that flight seats do not become available, you will receive a full refund of your deposit. We will have no other liability and will not be responsible for refunding the cost of any services booked in conjunction with the flights. 2.4 S S SU TS uring pea periods such as Christmas and aster when demand outstrips the supply of airline seats and accommodation, you may find that supplements are added to the cost of your holiday.

The cost of these supplements will be quoted to you at the time of booking. 2.5 C S’ Kuoni offers you the flexibility to create your own holiday from the range of accommodation and services available. Because of the wide choice, it is not possible to list every price on every date. A ‘from’ price is indicative of the lowest price available for the hotel or itinerary featured but this may vary depending on a number of factors such as your date of travel and choice of accommodation.

Please read your policy details carefully and take them with you on holiday. 2.10 T T CU TS After booking you will receive an invoice with all important information relevant to your destination. We strongly recommend you check the details carefully and read the information. Please ensure that you check your flight timings carefully on your tickets.

If you want to change or cancel your holiday 3.1 C S T ST U If you want to change any part of your holiday arrangements after the invoice has been issued, we will do our best to make the change, but it may not be possible. Any request for changes must be made in writing by the person who made the original booking, or his or her travel agent. If it is possible to make the change, it will be subject to an administration charge of 50 per boo ing, and payment of any further costs incurred as a result of the change. If we agree that you may change your booking to a holiday of lower value, and then you cancel that holiday, we reserve the right to levy cancellation charges on the value of the original booking. Scheduled airlines normally regard name changes as a cancellation and reboo ing, and any alteration may incur a 100 cancellation charge in respect of the air fare. Please note that save for the transfer of a booking (see below), or the addition of any offers made by Kuoni in the brochure which were not requested at the time of boo ing, it will not be possible to ma e changes within 30 days of your scheduled departure date.

We must be given at least 14 days notice of the transfer request. An administration charge will be made of £50 per person for requests made more than 61 days (91 days for a cruise) before departure. For flight inclusive bookings, you must pay the charges levied by the airline concerned. As most airlines do not permit name changes after tickets have been issued for any reason, these charges are likely to be the full cost of the flight. If you request to change all names on a booking, this will be considered as a cancellation and new booking and full cancellation charges will apply. 3.3 CANCELLING YOUR HOLIDAY If you or anyone on your holiday booking decides to cancel the holiday, the lead name must notify us of the decision as soon as possible. Any notification by telephone must also be confirmed in writing or by e-mail within 24-hours by the lead name. Cancellation will take effect from the day we are notified provided that written confirmation is received by us within 24-hours of the original notification. A cancellation invoice will be sent to you or your travel agent within 7 days, if you do not receive this please contact us immediately in order to prevent an increase in charges. You may also check your booking has been cancelled on our website, www. kuoni.co.uk. Should you already be in receipt of your airline tickets please also return these to us along with your cancellation request. The following scale of charges will be payable depending on when the notification of cancellation is received. Insurance premiums and amendment charges are not refundable in the event of cancellation. References to the deposit include all sums paid or payable at the time of booking. Period prior to departure notice of cancellation is received by us

Cancellation charge per person cancelling or your travel agent

Prior to 61 days: 60 – 42 days: 41 – 33 days: 32 – 15 days: 14 days or less:

loss of deposit (91 days if your booking includes a cruise) 50% of total holiday cost (90-42 days if your booking includes a cruise) 60% of total holiday cost 90% of total holiday cost 100% of total holiday cost

NB In certain cases the airline may have applied certain ticketing deadlines to your booking and this may result in higher cancellation charges. This also applies to certain hotels, who may often charge a higher cancellation fee regardless of the above-mentioned timeframes, and you may therefore be charged a higher amount than detailed above. It is therefore important to enquire for details at the time of booking and cancellation. We would strongly recommend that you take out appropriate travel insurance which provides cover against loss of deposit or cancellation fees. If you have taken advantage of an airline offer as detailed on the relevant page and paid a higher deposit, the cancellation charge payable by you will be the higher of this deposit or the appropriate cancellation charge detailed above.

If we want to change or cancel your holiday 4.1 BROCHURE ACCURACY We rigorously check the information given in our brochure about accommodation, resorts, itineraries etc., to ensure it is correct to the best of our knowledge at the time of going to press (October 2014). However, as brochures are prepared well in advance, advertised descriptions and facilities may change before and after you book. Please check the up to date position at the time of booking. Please bear in mind that hoteliers, restaurateurs, night club owners etc., may wish to maintain or improve their facilities, or even take a break themselves. Flight times, carriers and routes in the brochure are given for guidance only as there may be changes. Final details will be shown on your tickets. Tour, excursion, cruise or safari itineraries may change as a result of local conditions. Circumstances such as these, or weather conditions, time of year or other situations beyond our control etc., may cause some of the amenities we have described to be unavailable or different from those advertised in our brochure. When we are told of any significant or long term changes we will always endeavour to advise you prior to your departure. 4.2 BUILDING AND DEVELOPMENT WORK Many hotels and resorts are continuing to develop, sometimes rapidly and intensively and often with little or no advance warning. Whilst we have no control over such work, as a responsible tour operator, it is important to us that you are aware of any significant building/refurbishment work that may be going on during your stay. General refurbishment at hotels is necessary to maintain

standards but if we are informed of such work we will endeavour to notify you of as soon as possible, however near to your departure this may be.

NB: Please be advised that compensation in the event of any significant change to your cruise arrangements, will be made as future credit towards another cruise, rather than a cash value.

4.3 FLIGHT CHANGES The flight timings shown in our brochure, on our website and/ or detailed on your confirmation invoice are for guidance only and are subject to alteration and confirmation. Flight timings are outside our control. They are set by airlines and are subject to various factors including air traffic control restrictions, weather conditions, potential technical problems and the ability of passengers to check in on time.

4.5 CHANGES DUE TO CIRCUMSTANCES BEYOND OUR CONTROL Except where otherwise expressly stated in these booking conditions, we regret we cannot accept liability or pay any compensation where the performance or prompt performance of our obligations under our contract with you is prevented or affected by, or you otherwise suffer any damage, loss or expense of any nature as a result of, ‘force majeure’. In these booking conditions, ‘force majeure’ means any event or circumstances which we or the supplier of the service(s) in question could not, even with all due care, foresee or avoid. Such events may include, whether actual or threatened, war, riot, civil strife, terrorist activity, industrial dispute, natural or nuclear disaster, adverse weather conditions, epidemics, fire and other situations which are outside our control.

Airlines occasionally may change the type of aircraft used on a particular flight without advance warning. Scheduled and charter flight timings, and days of operation are subject to change. We will advise you of any significant changes. Minor timing changes will be shown on the flight tickets, which you should check carefully when received. Should the changes involve a reduction in the duration of your holiday, we will offer you a refund of any applicable costs. Any change in the identity of the airline, flight timings and/or aircraft type (if advised) will not entitle you to cancel or change to other arrangements without paying our normal charges except where specified in these conditions. 4.4 IF WE CHANGE OR CANCEL YOUR HOLIDAY BEFORE YOUR DEPARTURE We hope and expect to be able to provide you with all the services we have confirmed to you at the time of booking. We plan arrangements a long time in advance of your holiday using independent suppliers such as airlines, hotels etc., over whom we have no direct control. On occasions changes do have to be made, and we reserve the right to make these. Most of these changes are minor. However, occasionally, changes are significant. A significant change includes a change of accommodation to that of a lower category and/or price for the whole or a major part of your time away, a change of flight time of more than 12 hours, a change of UK departure airport (except between London airports), or a significant change of resort area. Similarly, we do our best to avoid cancelling holidays but we must reserve the right to do so. However, we promise we will only cancel your confirmed booking after you have made full payment where we are forced to do so as a result of ‘force majeure’ as defined below or lack of minimum numbers. Please note, some of our holidays require a minimum number of participants to enable us to operate them. If the minimum number of bookings required for a particular holiday has not been received, we are entitled to cancel it. We will notify you or your travel agent of cancellation for this reason no later than 61 days prior to departure. If we have to make a significant change or cancel, we will tell you as soon as possible. If there is time to do so before departure, we will offer you the choice of the following options:(a) (for significant changes) accepting the changed arrangements; or (b) purchasing an alternative holiday from us, of a similar standard to that originally booked if available. If this holiday is in fact cheaper than the original one, we will refund the price difference. If you do not wish to accept the holiday we specifically offer you, you may choose any of our other then available holidays. You must pay the applicable price of any such holiday. This will mean your paying more if it is more expensive or receiving a refund if it is cheaper; or (c) cancelling or accepting the cancellation in which case you will receive a full and quick refund of all monies you have paid to us. If we have to make a significant change or cancel we will, where compensation is appropriate, pay you the compensation payments set out in the table below depending on the circumstances and when the significant change or cancellation is notified to you subject to the following exceptions. Compensation will not be payable and no liability beyond offering the above mentioned choices can be accepted where (1) we are forced to make a change or cancel as a result of unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control, the consequences of which we could not have avoided even with all due care or (2) we have to cancel because the minimum number of bookings necessary for us to operate your holiday has not been reached (see above). No compensation will be payable and the above options will not be available if we cancel as a result of your failure to comply with any requirement of these booking conditions entitling us to cancel (such as paying on time) or where a change is a minor one. A change of flight time of less than 12 hours, airline (except where otherwise stated), type of aircraft (if advised) or destination airport will all be treated as minor changes. Period before departure within which Compensation a significant compensation change or Per Person cancellation is notified to you or your travel agent More than 60 days: NIL (91 days if your booking includes a cruise) 60 – 42 days: £20 (90-42 days if your booking includes a cruise) 41 – 28 days: £30 27 – 15 days: £40 14 – 0 days: £50

4.6 CRUISE BOOKINGS AND OUT OF DATE RANGE FLIGHTS / ACCOMMODATION Where you make your cruise booking well in advance of departure, it may not be possible at that time to book the flights, accommodation and/or other services you have requested as they are not then available. Where you ask us to do so, we will confirm any such services subject to availability and the applicable price when they are available to book. If these services cannot subsequently be booked as requested or you are not prepared to pay the applicable price, you may cancel them and receive a refund of the amount you have paid in respect of these services. Cancellation or non availability of these services does not, however, entitle you to cancel your cruise or any other confirmed element of your booking without paying the applicable cancellation charges. 4.7 IF WE CHANGE YOUR HOLIDAY ACCOMMODATION We do not control the day to day management of your accommodation, and in exceptional cases it is possible that we may be advised that the reserved accommodation has been overbooked or your accommodation may have to be changed for other reasons. If this happens before your departure or on arrival in resort we will endeavour to provide accommodation of at least the same standard in the same resort area. If only accommodation of a lower standard is available we will refund the difference of the brochure price between the accommodation booked and that available, and will pay up to £50 per person for any inconvenience. 4.8 IF WE CURTAIL YOUR HOLIDAY AFTER DEPARTURE Very rarely, we may be forced by ‘force majeure’ (see 4.5) to change or terminate your holiday after departure but before the scheduled end of your time away. This is extremely unlikely but if this situation does occur, we regret we will be unable to make any refunds (unless we obtain any refunds from our suppliers), pay you any compensation or meet any costs or expenses you incur as a result. 4.9 MINIMUM NUMBERS Price boxes on relevant pages will indicate whether a particular holiday is subject to a minimum number of participants for its operation. Please contact us at the time of booking should you require details regarding the number of people on your tour. We will advise you at least 61 days before departure if minimum numbers have not been reached and as a direct result your tour has to be cancelled. You will then have the choice of booking an alternative holiday with us, changing your departure date at the appropriate additional cost, or having a refund of monies paid. No compensation will be payable and we are unable to offer refunds of any associated costs ie visas etc. 4.10 TOURS Whilst every effort is made to operate a tour as advertised, on occasion it may be necessary to make changes to the accommodation, the routing or order of an itinerary. Unless the change significantly alters the holiday, compensation will not be payable.

On holiday 5.1 FLIGHT DELAYS In the event of a flight being delayed, we will arrange for the following to be provided, whenever practical, and subject to the airport being able to cater for this:- over 4 hours, an appropriate meal, and for delays of at least 8 hours extending beyond midnight, overnight accommodation will be provided wherever possible. However, this will depend on such factors as the expected length of delay, local availability of accommodation, immigration rulings etc. Where long flight delays result in lost holiday time, no refunds are given by hotels for unused accommodation, as rooms are held for delayed arrivals, not re-let. 5.2 WATER/ELECTRICITY SUPPLIES In many of the less sophisticated destinations we feature, the water and electricity services struggle to keep up with the increased demands from tourism. Limited rainfall can put further pressure on their provision. Hotels do everything possible to maintain full services. However, occasional power cuts and/or water restrictions may be experienced. 5.3 ACCOMMODATION IN THE TROPICS In many hotels, especially beach resorts ‘insects’ in the rooms (eg. cockroaches etc) are almost inevitable. It should by no means be taken as a sign of dirtiness, simply a fact of life in

Please note that in the interest of your personal safety, the operators of these activities may require that you demonstrate your competence (for example a swimming test) prior to commencement and reserve the right to refuse participation for any reason if they feel this may compromise your or another guest’s safety. Please note there may be certain age restrictions for children/adults to do certain activities so please ensure you enquire locally. 5.5 U ost people go on holiday for rest and rela ation, so if in our reasonable opinion or in the opinion of any airline pilot, hotel manager, tour leader or other person in authority, your behaviour is causing or is likely to cause danger, upset or damage to property or is persistently affecting the enjoyment of others, we reserve the right to terminate your holiday. Should this happen no refund or compensation would be paid and we will have no further responsibility for your holiday arrangements including return travel. 5.6 S S ST T S For security reasons valuables should be kept to a minimum and packed in your hand luggage along with your medicines, camera, film, electrical or battery-operated appliances, as well as basic essentials such as a change of clothing and toiletries. It can be easy to lose items but it is your responsibility to look after your property at all times and you must ensure you are adequately covered by comprehensive insurance. If you lose any personal items whilst on holiday, please obtain a written report from a local representative, and police, to help with any insurance claim upon your return. 5.7 U C T U If you have cause for complaint whilst on holiday, you must bring it to the attention of our local representative or agent and the hotel immediately. They will do their best to rectify the situation. It is unreasonable to take no action whilst on holiday, but then to write a letter of complaint upon return. If you do not raise concerns immediately, this may affect our ability to investigate and take remedial action and it may impact on the way your complaint is dealt with. 5. U UT C uoni offers 24 hour assistance for emergency situations and to help resolve any issues while you are on holiday. The number provided on your itinerary is a pager ser ice and our uty fficer will return your call. any destinations ha e local representation and they should be contacted in the first instance should you have a problem. 5.9 C S T It is becoming ever more important to conserve the world’s natural resources, its landscapes, flora and fauna. Someone coined the phrase ‘Take only photographs; leave only footprints’ and a number of countries now use this to promote conservation. It would be hard to improve on this statement. 5.10 U C

Please note that EU law only applies to flights from EU airports or flights to EU airports from outside the EU or an EU airline. This means that, subject to these booking conditions, we will accept responsibility if, for example, you suffer death or personal injury or your contracted holiday arrangements are not provided as promised or prove deficient as a result of the failure of ourselves, our employees, agents or suppliers to use reasonable skill and care in making, performing or providing, as applicable, your contracted holiday arrangements. Please note, it is your responsibility to show that reasonable skill and care has not been used if you wish to make a claim against us. In addition, we will only be responsible for what our employees, agents and suppliers do or do not do if they were at the time acting within the course of their employment (for employees) or carrying out work we had asked them to do (for agents and suppliers). (b) We will not be responsible for any injury, illness, death, loss (for example loss of enjoyment), damage, expense, cost or other sum or claim of any description whatsoever which results from any of the following: - the act(s) and/or omission(s) of the person(s) affected or any member(s) of their party or - the act(s) and/or omission(s) of a third party not connected with the provision of your holiday and which were unforeseeable or unavoidable or force majeure’ as defined in 4.5 (c) For claims which do not involve personal injury, illness or death, the most we will have to pay if we are liable to you is twice the price, the person affected, paid for their holiday (not including insurance premiums and amendment charges). We will only have to pay this maximum amount if everything has gone wrong and you have received no benefit from your holiday. Where enjoyment of only some days has been affected, we will refund reasonable related e penses and pay a daily sum of compensation up to 50 per day per person affected.

The most we will have to pay you for that claim or that part of a claim if we are found liable to you on any basis is the most the carrier concerned would have to pay under the international convention or regulation which applies to the travel arrangements in question (for example, the Warsaw Convention as amended or unamended and the ontreal Con ention for international tra el by air and/or for airlines with an operating licence granted by an U country, the C egulation on ir Carrier iability o 9 2002 for national and international travel by air, the Athens Convention for international tra el by sea and C T , the Con ention on nternational Tra el by ail . here a carrier would not be obliged to make any payment to you under the applicable international convention or regulation in respect of a claim or part of a claim, we similarly are not obliged to make a payment to you for that claim or part of the claim.

If your airline does not comply with these rules you should complain to the CAA on 020 7240 6061 www.caa.co.u (f) Please note, we cannot accept responsibility for any services which do not form part of our contract. This includes, for example, any additional services or facilities which your hotel or any other supplier agrees to provide for you where the services or facilities are not advertised by us and we have not agreed to arrange them as part of our contract and any excursion you purchase in resort. In addition, regardless of any wording used by us on our website, in any advertising material or elsewhere, we only promise to use reasonable skill and care as set out above and we do not have any greater or different liability to you. (g) The promises we make to you about the services we have agreed to provide or arrange as part of our contract – and the laws and regulations of the country in which your claim or complaint occurred – will be used as the basis for deciding whether the services in question had been properly provided. If the particular services which gave rise to the claim or complaint complied with local laws and regulations applicable to those services at the time, the services will be treated as having been properly provided. This will be the case even if the services did not comply with the laws and regulations of the UK which would have applied had those services been provided in the UK. The exception to this is where the claim or complaint concerns the absence of a safety feature which might lead a reasonable holiday maker to refuse to take the arrangements in question. Please note, however, our obligation is to exercise reasonable skill and care as referred to (a).

The scheme provides for a simple and inexpensive method of arbitration on documents alone with restricted liability for you in respect of costs. The scheme does not apply to claims for an amount greater than 5,000 per person or 25,000 per boo ing form. either does it apply to claims which are solely in respect of physical injury or illness or their consequences, although claims which include an element of minor injury or illness can be considered subject to a limit of 1,000 on the amount the arbitrator can award per person, in respect of this element.

oliday Information

ur Sales team is happy to ad ise on weather trends as many of the destinations featured in this brochure have a tropical climate where heavy rainfall and strong winds (sometimes hurricane force) do occur at certain times of the year, however world weather patterns are now becoming more and more erratic resulting in unusual rainfall, storms and e en floods. uring monsoon season, you are li ely to get more rain than sunshine. ost people go on holiday to spend time in the sunshine and although adverse weather conditions can be very frustrating Kuoni cannot assume any responsibility for the statistical information provided opposite, nor accept liability to make refunds or pay compensation for alternative arrangements, damage to property or curtailed holidays as a result of such conditions. Some destinations featured in this brochure are subject to tides at specific times of the year which can affect swimming. epending on the island you have chosen, there may be restrictions on areas where it is safe to swim due to strong currents or sea defences which protect the island beaches.

Kuoni holidays operate to many parts of the world, some of which do not conform to British health and safety standards. We request that all hotels comply with the local regulations applicable in their country for health and safety but we cannot guarantee that these meet British standards and therefore urge that you undertake reasonable precautions to protect your family and yourself whilst on holiday.
