It is the group leader’s responsibility specifically to ensure that participants act in a responsible manner during the tour and do not behave in a way likely to cause
damage to property or damage or offence to other people.
It is also the group leader’s responsibility to ensure that no participant under 18 years of age consumes alcoholic drinks. No participant should consume alcohol to
excess and all local laws relating to the consumption of alcohol are to be obeyed by the participants at all times.
If the behaviour of any group member causes distress, damage, danger or annoyance to other persons or property, suppliers of accommodation and transport
services reserve the right at all times to demand payment to cover damage caused, cancel arrangements immediately or to eject the person(s) responsible. In such
circumstances, our responsibility will cease and we will not be obliged to cover expenses, which may be incurred on the part of the party. Similarly we will not
consider or accept any claims for compensation.
As group leader I have read the booking conditions and accept responsibility for the good conduct of all participants during the tour and warrant that at least one
responsible adult will be on active duty at all times to ensure this.
I accept that if the behaviour of any group member causes distress, damage, danger or annoyance to other persons or property, suppliers of accommodation and
transport services reserve the right at all times to charge the group for any damage caused, cancel arrangements immediately or to eject the person(s) responsible. I
accept that the school/college will be held responsible for any charges incurred and that payment will be payable before departure.
