Payments from travel agents – Your travel agent may forward deposits and other payments to us on your behalf. Payment to your travel agent does not constitute receipt of those monies by us.

Special Requests – If you have a special request (e.g. diet, room location, twin or double bedded room, a particular facility at a hotel, flight seat requests and/or particular meals), you must advise us at the time your booking is made. Whilst all reasonable efforts will be made to accommodate your special requests, all special requests are subject to availability and cannot be guaranteed by Constellation Journeys. The fact that your special request has been conveyed to our suppliers or is noted on your invoice, confirmation advice or any other notification from us does not mean that your special request can or will be fulfilled. Credit Card Surcharge – If you pay by credit card, a credit card surcharge is applicable. Inclusions – Please read your itinerary carefully for the items that are included in your holiday package and in the Package Price. All travel, travel insurance, accommodation, airfares (as stated in your itinerary), gratuities, transfers, sightseeing, specified excursions, meals, admissions, taxes and the service of a Tour Manager are included in the Package Price.

Cancellation by us – Although Constellation Journeys endeavours to provide you with all the services confirmed at the time of your booking of your holiday package or excursions, we reserve the right to amend, cancel or make substitutions for any travel component without prior notice to you, including hotels, if, in Constellation Journey’s opinion, the situation requires a change or cancellation of arrangements. Constellation Journeys does not assume any responsibility or liability for any loss, inconvenience or expense incurred as a result of any change or cancellation. Changes to itineraries – Your itinerary is a guide only, and is subject to alteration without notice. Alterations may be necessary for various reasons including, without limitation, road, river or weather conditions or other unforeseen circumstances beyond our control. We reserve the right to vary your itinerary in these circumstances and to provide alternative services including, but not limited to, substitute transport arrangements. Constellation Journeys will not be liable for any costs that may be incurred by you because of any event or other factor beyond our control which necessitates a change to your itinerary. Changes due to force majeure – If Constellation Journeys is required or elects in its absolute discretion (whether directly or through its employees, contractors, subcontractors or agents) to make a change to, or cancel, a booking (or any part of it, including excursions) due to force majeure (for example, circumstances such as political unrest, war or threat of war, riots, civil strife, closure of airports or ports, industrial disputes, terrorist activity, natural or nuclear disasters, fire, epidemic or health risk, acts of God, changes in laws or regulations, adverse weather conditions, travel warnings or advices issued by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, or other similar events beyond our control), we will either: (a) terminate your booking (in whole or in part) in which circumstance no refund will apply. (b) change your travel arrangements as reasonably practicable to ensure your safety. Additional charges may apply. Constellation Journeys accepts no responsibility or liability whatsoever for any cancellation or changes to your holiday package due to an event of force majeure. It is your responsibility to ensure travel insurance adequately protects you in the event of force majeure cancellation. Minimum number of guests – All tours and excursions require a minimum number of guests to be financially viable and to ensure a pleasant group experience. If the minimum number of guests for a tour or excursion is not achieved, we reserve the right to cancel a scheduled departure and offer an alternative tour or to cancel your holiday package and refund of the monies paid to Constellation Journeys.

Health requirements – A good level of fitness and health is required to participate in this journey. In some destinations, there are extensive sightseeing excursions by foot, which can include climbing of stairs and walking on uneven surfaces. Mobility is needed boarding or alighting coaches and other vehicles. We recommend a visit to the doctor and dentist before travelling to overseas destinations. It is your responsibility to advise Constellation Journeys of any pre-existing medical conditions that may affect the normal conduct of a holiday package and the enjoyment of other guests. Your health whilst travelling – A doctor will travel with the group for the duration of the tour (Tour Doctor). The Tour Doctor is an independent registered medical practitioner who is available to provide limited medical attention to tour guests should the need arise. The Tour Doctor holds professional indemnity insurance and will bring a limited amount of medical supplies. Constellation Journeys is not responsible or liable for any advice or treatment that may be provided by the Tour Doctor, or any failure on the part of the Tour Doctor to fully diagnose or treat any medical injury or condition which may arise or be identified during the course of the tour. Due to exclusions in professional indemnity insurance, Australian doctors are unable to provide medical services whilst travelling in the United States of America or its territorial waters. In lieu, the Tour Doctor will assist in arranging local medical services during this time. You are responsible for all charges that result from visiting a medical facility, or for a medical practitioner (other than the Tour Doctor) visiting you. Constellation Journeys is not responsible for the type or quality of the medical services you may receive. Guests with unfit mental or physical conditions – If, in the reasonable opinion of any representative of Constellation Journeys, your mental or physical condition is likely to affect your own health and safety, render you incapable to care for yourself, cause you to become a hazard to yourself or other guests, or result in you becoming objectionable to other guests or staff, you will not be permitted to embark on or continue any remaining part of the holiday package. Constellation Journeys is not liable to you for any costs associated with such decision and you will not be entitled to a refund for any part of the tour missed.

Independent Suppliers – Our holiday packages may include the services of hoteliers or other accommodation providers, air carriers, cruise and ferry operators, coach operators and other transport providers and other operators who are not agents, servants or employees of Constellation Journeys and over whom Constellation Journeys has no direct control (Independent Suppliers). Although we take care in selecting the Independent Suppliers, and the optional excursions conducted by some Independent Suppliers, Constellation Journeys does not accept any responsibility or liability for any acts, omissions or defaults, whether negligent or otherwise, of the Independent Suppliers. Optional excursions may, depending on your holiday package, include activities such as climbing, exploring, bike riding, swimming and snorkelling. You accept and assume the risk involved with these activities. Constellation Journeys does not accept any responsibility or liability of any nature whatsoever for any injury, damage, loss, delay, additional expenses or inconvenience caused by your own acts or omissions in undertaking or participating in, the optional excursions.
