D. Changes and cancelation by Tangol

Although Tangol will make its best efforts to operate all tours as advertised, by accepting this contract the Customer accepts that it may prove necessary or advisable to vary or modify a tour itinerary or its contents due to prevailing local conditions. Tangol reserves the right at any time to cancel or change any of the facilities, services or prices (including flights, accommodation or other arrangements) and to substitute alternative arrangements of comparable monetary value without compensation and accepts no liability for loss of enjoyment as a result of these changes. If a major change is known to us, the Customer will be told at the time of the booking. If a major change becomes necessary after booking Tangol will inform the Customers as soon as reasonably possible. When a major change is made the Customer will have the choice of accepting the change of arrangements, purchasing any other available tour or canceling the tour and obtaining a full refund. Provided that the major change is not because of force majeure. Force majeure is war, threat of war, riots, civil strife, industrial dispute, terrorist activities, natural or nuclear disaster, fire or adverse weather conditions, technical or maintenance problems with transport, changes imposed by cancelation or rescheduling of flights by an airline, the alteration of airline or aircraft type, or other similar events beyond the control of Tangol.

It is the responsibility of the Customer to be in possession of a valid passport, visa permits, inoculations and preventive medicines as may be required for the duration of the tour. Information about these matters or related items is given in good faith but without responsibility on the part of Tangol.

F. Illness or disability

Anyone suffering from illness or disability or undergoing treatment for any physical or medical condition must declare the true nature of such condition at the time of booking and make arrangements for the provision of any medication or other treatment which may be required during the tour.

Should the problem remain unsolved a complaint must be made in writing to Tangol within 30 days of the completion of the holiday.

I. Flight Bookings

Tangol will make its best efforts to ensure that all flight prices are correct at the time that they are quoted. Airlines reserve the right to amend or withdraw fares without prior notice.

The Customer must check the tickets very carefully immediately upon receipt of the latest timings. Tangol will endeavor to inform the Customer as soon as possible in the event of any flight alteration. Details of airlines are also subject to change. Such alterations do not constitute a significant change to the holiday arrangements and will therefore not be entitled to cancel without paying the normal charges as a result. Tangol can not be held responsible for any delay to your flight whether this delay is caused by adverse weather conditions, the action of air traffic controllers, airport authorities or (local) governments, the rescheduling of flight times by the airline, mechanical breakdown, strike, industrial action or any other reason.

Tangol cannot be held responsible for any type of cancelations or reschedules, due to any cause such as weather conditions, technical problems, security reasons, personal decisions of the event organizer, or any other reason not reliable to Tangol.

If the customer is willing to get transfers and tour guide services again for the rescheduled date, he will have to fully pay again for these services.
