Pricing
|
Still
Water pricing is considered all-inclusive.
That means that
you won't find any hidden charges for internal domestic flights, park
entrance fees, travel permits and other "extras" sometimes
found on other tours.
Our philosophy
is that you shouldn't be charged extra for something that is an integral
part of a travel program.

Departure is defined as the date of the first flight from the continental
48 states, or the trip departure date as indicated on our Trip Schedule,
whichever comes first. Cancellation and determination of cancellation
fee is effective on the date of receipt of your written notification.
In addition, you are responsible for all airfare and transit accommodation
cancellation penalties, which are not included above. Payments due
at the time of cancellation remain the responsibility of the client.
Participants are responsible for being in sufficiently good health
and condition to undertake the trip. Once a trip has started, refunds
will not be made for missed arrangements for any reason whatsoever. We
highly recommend trip cancellation insurance.
Canceled Trips
Still Water Travel reserves the right to cancel any trip
prior to departure for any reason whatsoever, including insufficient
sign-up or logistical problems that will impede trip operations.
The refund of all payments received shall release Still Water
Travel from any further liability should we cancel a trip due
to circumstances within our control. Still Water Travel is
not responsible for non recoverable expenses incurred by trip
members in preparing for a canceled trip, such as non-refundable
advance purchase air tickets, visa fees, equipment, etc., nor
for any necessary additional arrangements should the applicant
have embarked prior to the group's departure date.
We highly recommend that you purchase trip cancellation insurance that
covers the full land and air cost of your trip. If we are
forced to cancel the trip for reasons within our control, you will
be entitled to a full refund of all payments made toward the trip. The
low cost Travel Insurance is meant to protect you for covered reasons in
case you must cancel your participation in the trip or if Still Water
Travel is forced to cancel the trip due to circumstances beyond our
control. Any cancellation on your behalf during the trip will not be
entitled to any refund of payments made.
Items not included in trip costs:
Medical expenses, costs of hospitalization or evacuation
from remote areas; laundry; airport departure taxes not included
on your ticket; accommodations en route to base cities; visas;
airfares; gratuities and insurance. If a trip must be extended
or an itinerary modified due to weather, road conditions, lack
of transportation, political or civil disputes, medical emergency
or other causes beyond our control, all associated costs including
any non recoverable costs are not included in the trip rates
or refunds. You must obtain trip cancellation insurance to
cover these costs.
Limitations of liability
In many cases, suppliers of tour services are independent
contractors to Still Water Travel, not its employees. For example,
we use independent ground operators, tour guides, hotels, transportation
companies, drivers, airlines, and other suppliers. Because
we do not own, operate, manage, control, or supervise these
entities, we cannot be liable for any acts or omissions, including
any negligence, gross negligence, or reckless or willful acts,
on their part. Still Water Travel, its owners, agents, and
employees assume no responsibility for any injury, loss, damage,
delay, or death to person or property arising from the negligent
or willful act or failure to act of any person who is to or
does provide goods or services for this trip or for the action
or inaction of any other third party. Without limitation, Still
Water Travel is not responsible for acts of God, equipment
failures, vehicle accidents, illness from food or otherwise,
detention, assaults, theft or criminal activity, annoyance,
delays, quarantine, strikes, failure of any means of conveyance
to arrive or depart as scheduled, civil disturbances, terrorism,
government restrictions or regulations, and discrepancies or
changes in transit or hotel services over which it has no control.
Reasonable changes in the itinerary may be made where deemed
advisable for the comfort and well being of the passengers.
The right is reserved to substitute hotels, alter the itinerary,
and reverse the order of places to be visited. You will be
informed of any necessary changes in a timely fashion.
On advancement of deposit to Still Water Travel, the depositor therefore
agrees to be bound by the above recited terms and conditions.
