We will not be liable or pay you compensation if our contractual obligations to you are affected by force majeure.
14.2 We may charge a reasonable fee to cover the administration costs associated with providing alternative travel arrangements or products where your booking is affected by Force Majeure.

15.1 Refunds are not made for any missed services, except for verifiable extenuating circumstances and then only at our discretion. Please see our Limits On Our Responsibility clause below.
15.2 We make every effort to ensure that your booking runs smoothly but if you do have a problem during your stay, please inform the management at the Retreat immediately who will endeavor to put things right.
15.3 If the problem cannot be resolved and you wish to complain further, you must send formal written notice of your complaint to the booking representative you made your booking with within 30 days of the end of your stay, giving your booking reference and all other relevant information.
15.4 Any price adjustment considered will be based on the actual price of the services involved and not on a per-day basis. Adjustments will not be made for unused sightseeing trips or meals. Any payment made by us, either by way of refund or as the result of a successful claim, will be limited to, and not exceed, the sum paid by you for the booking minus any administration fees.
16. LIMITS ON OUR RESPONSIBILITY:
16.1 Olgatuni, our employees, shareholders, officers, directors, successors and agents, purchase transportation (by aircraft or otherwise), ground handling and other services from various independent suppliers (including from time to time other affiliated companies). All such persons and entities are independent contractors. As a result, we are not liable for any negligent or wilful act of any such person or entity or of any third person.
16.2 In addition and without limitation, we are not responsible for any injury, financial or physical loss, death, inconvenience, delay or damage to personal property in connection with the provision of any goods or services whether resulting from our actions, Force Majeure or otherwise.
16.3 Boats: If you are scheduled to join one of our boats it is your responsibility to ensure that you are aboard the boat in good time before the scheduled sailing and before departure from any stop. We are neither responsible nor liable if you fail to board the boat in good time and suffer any loss as a result. Furthermore, refunds will not be given for any days which are missed as a result of such failure, or for guests who choose to leave the boat prematurely for any reason.
16.4 There are many inherent risks in adventure travel of the type involved here, which can lead to illness, injury or even death. These risks are increased by the fact that these trips take place in remote locations, far from medical facilities. In particular if you decide to participate in any activities including, but not limited to, any excursions involving animals, mokoro excursions, motorised and paddle boat excursions, walking safaris, night game drives, helicopter flights, fishing, hot air ballooning, white-water rafting, primate trekking and any activity which may carry inherent risks of serious illness, injury or death (“Activities”) then you fully understand and acknowledge that you take complete responsibility for your own health and safety. By booking a stay with us, you agree to assume all risks of injury, illness or death, whether foreseen or unforeseen that may befall you as a result of participating in any Activities or otherwise and agree to release Olgatuni and our affiliates, our agents, employees and representatives from any liability whatsoever related thereto, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
16.5 Further, as consideration for being permitted to participate in the Activities, you release Olgatuni, whether known or unknown, from, and agree not to sue or make claim against us for property damage, cancellation of any activities for any reason, illness, negligent rescue operations or procedures, personal injury or death arising from your participation in the Activities, and any activity related thereto, including transportation to and from the site of the Activities, regardless of whether such property damage, illness, personal injury, or death results from our negligence (but not our reckless, wilful, or fraudulent conduct) and/or from any defect in equipment. You further agree to indemnify and hold us harmless with respect to any claim made against us by anyone else which a) related to your participation, or b) would be subject to the above release and covenant not to sue if you had made this claim directly yourself.
16.6 Any excursions and/or activities taken/added to your booking may not have been health and safety or risk assessed. It is therefore your responsibility to check whether a particular activity has been assessed or not. Should you choose to participate in any excursion and/or activity which has not been health and safety or risk assessed and/or approved, you are deemed to fully understand and acknowledge the inherent risks that come with participating in such an excursion and/or activity.
16.7 Nothing in this clause 16 shall seek to release Olgatuni and our affiliates, our agents, employees, and representatives from any liability which cannot be excluded under the laws of the relevant country which govern these Booking Conditions.
16.8 If any court or competent authority finds that any provision of these Booking Conditions (or part of any provision) is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that provision or part-provision shall, to the extent required, be deemed to be deleted, and the validity and enforceability of the other provisions of these Booking Conditions shall not be affected.
16.9 If any invalid, unenforceable or illegal provision of this agreement would be valid, enforceable and legal if some part of it were deleted, the provision shall apply with the minimum modification necessary to make it legal, valid and enforceable.

22. TRAVELLING WITH CHILDREN:
22.1 We recommend that if you are traveling with a child that does not share your surname, in order to minimize the possibility of disruption to your travel plans, you travel with documentation that proves your relationship to the child as well as documentation that proves you have permission to travel with them. We cannot be held responsible should you or any member of your travelling party be denied entry to a country due to non-compliance with these requirements. Should you require further specific information ahead of travel, please consult the travel advice produced by the government of your home jurisdiction, as well as that of the government who issued the passport and/or visa you intend to travel under.
22.2 Due to the nature of some of the excursions and activities involved in our bookings, minimum age requirements are in place at some destinations. Additionally, some Retreats require children below a certain age to share a room with an adult. Such circumstances vary and will be specified in the contract.
22.3 Where your party includes one or more children, you must take responsibility for monitoring their whereabouts and actions and for ensuring their safety during your stay. Olgatuni will not be liable for any damage or injury caused to any person which is due to a failure by you to adequately supervise a child in your party.
