To avoid changes in prices, you can pay in full at the time of Reservation. Any changes requested after Booking will be subject to the then current prices at the time of change. Package price is quoted as a total including planning, handling, and operational charges. The Package price cannot be itemized.

Reservations and Payment Policy:

Reservations should be made as early as possible before the Trip. All Reservations are subject to availability at the time of Booking. All Reservations made at least 60 days before the Date of Travel must include the Trip Deposit, which will be applied toward purchase of Landed services (e.g. hotel, car rental, tours, land transfers) for the Trip, and will be non-refundable in the event of cancellation in accordance with this Contract. Reservations made 60 days or less before the Date of Travel must include the full Trip cost. Some destinations require full payment 90 days prior to Date of Travel.

Land Transfers:

Unused transfers (i.e. land transportation services) are non-refundable. Landed’s ability to provide transfer service is subject to our timely receipt of your complete flight itinerary (if we did not Book it for you) and ”record locator/PNR (passenger name record).” If Landed does not have complete flight itinerary and record locator/PNR prior to the issuance of travel documents, those transfers will not be provided.

Special Travel Requirements:

Landed’s Trips are available to all persons. Landed’s brochures and other publications may not list special services and equipment available to accommodate persons with special needs. At time of Reservation, you must inform Landed of any special requirements and special service or equipment needs. Fees for such arrangements may be billed separately.

Train tickets, cruise tickets, national park fees, hiking trail tickets, and certain entry fees cannot be Booked without full advance payment and a legible copy of each Client’s and Additional Traveler’s passport photo page.

Once you have provided payment and passport information, Landed will make reasonable efforts to secure any such items included in your Itinerary; however, availability of these items cannot be guaranteed in advance. Landed reserves the right to offer substitute services or alter the Itinerary as necessary.

Health:

Landed strongly recommends all Clients and Additional Travelers contact their medical practitioners prior to travel for a fitness evaluation (especially for travel to places higher than 6,000 feet above sea level due to physical endurance and exertion demands), and for advice on the appropriate precautions, inoculations, vaccinations, etc. Modern medical facilities may not be immediately accessible in some locations. Client understands that medical evacuation, if available and necessary, is difficult, expensive, and time-consuming, and agrees to assume responsibility for payment of any medical evacuation expenses incurred if Client becomes injured or ill. Your medical insurance may not cover medical expenses incurred while traveling and it is recommended that you consult your insurer and determine whether you should purchase a supplemental insurance policy.

Proof of Citizenship/Visas:

Clients and Additional Travelers are responsible for ensuring that they travel with the correct documentation, i.e. a valid passport and any visa(s) required to enter the countries included in the Itinerary. Landed shall not be responsible for Clients and Additional Travelers failure to obtain and possess correct travel documentation. Be advised some visas can take weeks or months to obtain. Please consult the State Department website for specifics. Passports must be valid for six months after your scheduled return date to the United States.

Confirmation and Full Payment:

The payment of the Trip Deposit is required to secure Reservations that are made more than 60 days prior to the Date of Travel. Based on each individual Trip, the Trip Deposit will include the Non-Refundable Reservation Fee as well as a Trip Down Payment that ranges from 30% to 50% of the anticipated Trip costs; however, Landed reserves the right to increase the Trip Deposit according to Supplier’s terms and conditions and fluctuation in currencies. Should a request be received less than 60 days prior to the Date of Travel, these Reservations can only be confirmed upon receipt of full payment for the Trip costs. For all Reservations, full payment is due to Landed no later than 60 days prior to the Date of Travel. Some destinations require full payment 90 days prior to Date of Travel.

Credit Card:

If Client is paying a Trip via credit card, then payment obligations are due to be paid immediately, and the Client’s initial credit card authorization to pay for the Trip Deposit shall also apply and authorize payment for any subsequent payment obligations arising under this Contract for the Trip. CLIENT WILL NOT SEEK TO REVERSE OR DISPUTE ANY CREDIT CARD CHARGES WITH ITS CREDIT CARD COMPANY FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER.

Final Itinerary/Travel Documents:

For most reservations, Landed prepares a personalized Final Itinerary prior to Client’s departure. Final Itineraries are based on information available at the time they are prepared. All times listed are approximate. Specific guides, tour leaders, etc. cannot be guaranteed, and may be substituted. Flights may change after your Itinerary is prepared. You are solely responsible for verifying your flight information. Landed is not responsible for missed flights or related losses or damages. Landed is not responsible for the Client’s cost of travel if Client decides to return home before completion of Final Itinerary.

Travel Documents will not be sent until full payment is received. Travel Documents are sent electronically, usually two to three weeks prior to the Date of Travel. Vouchers will not be sent to you prior to departure; if vouchers are needed, they will be provided to you in your destination country or countries. While traveling, you may receive additional information from our in-country representatives. Refer to these locally provided documents as they may reflect current conditions not known at the time the Final Itinerary was prepared.

Change Fees:

Change fees are applied on a per person per change basis. All changes are subject to availability. Fees for changes made after travel begins will be assessed on an individual, case-by-case basis. Changes made more than 60 days prior to the Date of Travel will be assessed a $100 per person fee by Landed. Changes made within 60 days of the Date of Travel will be assessed a $200 per person fee by Landed. All change fees specified above are in addition to any applicable cancellation fees, change fees, and charges assessed by Suppliers.

Cancellation Fees:

All cancellations must be made in writing. Cancellation fees are listed in the Cancellation Policy included herein.

In addition, Landed reserves the right to alter the Cancellation Policy should our Suppliers apply different penalties to those listed above. Please check with Landed when making your Reservation. Refunds for air tickets and charter flights will be governed by the policy of the individual airline. Upon cancellation of the transportation or travel services, where Client is not at fault and has not canceled in contradiction of any terms and conditions of this Contract, all sums paid to Landed for services not provided will be promptly paid to Client to the extent Landed is able to recover sums already paid from the Supplier, and excluding the non-refundable Initial Payment. Where Landed has remitted the payment to a Supplier without obtaining a refund, or where the Supplier defaults in providing the agreed-upon transportation or service. In this situation, Landed must provide Client with a written statement accompanied by bank records establishing the disbursement of the payment, and if disbursed to a Supplier, proof of current registration with that Supplier. In this instance, Client may seek to obtain reimbursement directly from Supplier.

Refunds:

For verifiable refund claims to be considered, they must be received by Landed within 30 days of original date of scheduled completion of travel (i.e. the “Completion Date”), accompanied by supporting documentation verifying the claim. If claims are not filed within 30 days of Completion Date, Landed will be fully released from all further liability. Refunds must be requested in a writing sent to Landed and, if applicable, separately to your travel insurance provider. All refunds are subject to the non-refundable Initial Payment. If documents have been issued, these must accompany any request for refund. Acceptance of a refund constitutes a waiver by Client of all rights and remedies under applicable law. Any adjustment considered will be based on the actual price of the services involved and not on a per diem basis. Adjustments will not be made for unused tours, transfers, or meals.

Missed Services:

Should Client choose to miss any Booked services over the course of his or her Trip, Landed will not refund the costs for these unused services, including, but not limited to, unused sightseeing, tours, accommodations, flights, transfers, and meals.

Conduct:

Landed reserves the right to decline, accept, or retain any Client or Additional Traveler in arranging a Trip at any time and for any reason that affects the operation of a Trip or the rights and welfare or enjoyment of others. If a Client or Additional Traveler is removed from the Trip, a proportionate refund may be requested in writing in accordance with this Contract. Refund of the recoverable Trip costs is the limit of Landed’s liability in this event.

Responsibility and Agent Status:

Landed and its managers, members, contractors, employees, other subsidiaries/affiliated or associations companies, agents, and subagents act only as booking agents for Client. Landed is not a Supplier under this Contract.

Landed is not liable for, and Client hereby waives and releases any right to a claim for damages against Landed for, any injury, any loss of or damage to property, death, accident, delay, or failure of or inadequate performance caused by any act or omission by Supplier.

If so, Client will be additionally subject to Supplier’s terms of business.

Force Majeure:

In no event shall Landed or its Suppliers be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, bad weather, closure of ports, quarantine or epidemics, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, government regulations or restrictions, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, or any other event that cannot be avoided or guarded against by the exercise of due diligence. In such instance, Landed shall use reasonable efforts to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances and reserves the right to cancel the Trip or make any reasonable changes and/or substitutions to the Itinerary. In the event Landed cancels a Trip pursuant to this provision, a refund shall be issued in accordance to the terms of this Contract, and the maximum amount of refund shall be limited to the total amount paid by Client to Landed less the non-refundable Initial Payment.

TRAVEL AND MEDICAL INSURANCE RECOMMENDATION

We believe that your upcoming Trip is a significant investment that you should protect. For this reason, we strongly recommend you purchase comprehensive travel insurance. We recommend obtaining a policy that would cover cancellation and curtailment, all medical expenses including evacuation/repatriation, personal baggage, personal liability, death and permanent disability, and travel document insurance. Landed shall not be held responsible for any costs arising from such loss or injury. Comprehensive travel insurance is also recommended as airline liability for loss or damage to baggage is limited, in accordance with the terms of the airline’s contract of carriage, often to not more than $1,000, unless the Client has declared a higher value, and an additional payment has been made in accordance with carrier’s tariffs.

We recommend purchasing comprehensive travel insurance, through your travel agent or other insurance provider, at the time you Book your Trip with Landed; delays in purchasing travel insurance can limit the type and scope of coverage. Travel insurance is NOT included with the Trip you are purchasing from Landed. If you do not purchase travel insurance separately, you are assuming any financial loss associated with your Trip.

Your medical insurance may or may not cover medical expenses incurred while traveling. Medical insurance is NOT included with the Trip you are purchasing from Landed. Please consult your insurer to determine whether you should purchase a supplemental policy and/or additional coverage.

If you obtain any of the above recommended insurance policies, please provide Landed with a copy of your travel and supplemental medical insurance policies. We will add these to your file, and can send a copy to you in the event you need to reference it.
