Introduction

When making your booking our service is limited to making arrangements for you to enter into a contract with the (“Travel Providers”) who could be the principal or the agent of the principal in the agreement. When you make a booking we, NSA Adventure & Travel Services Ltd (“TAP”) begin processing your booking and arrange for you to enter into a contract with the Travel Provider who will provide the Travel Service and arrangements. By accepting these Agency Terms and Conditions you are giving us authority to liaise with the Travel Provider on your behalf.
1.2 Importantly, your booking is subject to both these Agency Terms and Conditions and the Booking Conditions of the Travel Provider(s). The Agency Terms and Conditions set out the terms of agreement between you and NSA Adventure & Travel Services Ltd whilst the Booking Conditions set out the terms of agreement between you and the Travel Provider(s).
1.3 For the avoidance of doubt NSA Adventure & Travel Services Ltd is not a Travel Provider. This means that we do not arrange or create combinations of travel elements. We only act as agent for Travel Providers for whom we provide marketing, sales and booking services.
1.4 Your booking is not confirmed until you have received a Booking Confirmation email from us. If after making a booking you have not received your confirmation within 24 hours please call our team on 07753 626677 for residents of the UK or for anyone outside of the UK +44 7753 626677 or email us at info@northstaradventure.co.uk.

1.6 Guaranteed Refunds: If the operator cancels your tour you have the option to be refunded 100% of monies paid to North Star Adventure for your booking.
2. Package Holidays
2.1 North Star Adventure
3. Lowest Price Guarantee
3.1 NSA Adventure & Travel Services Ltd promises you the absolutely lowest prices available. If you book with us and within 24 hours find your exact travel arrangements on sale, and available, at a lower price on a comparable travel website, we will refund the difference to you. To be comparable, we must be able to confirm that the competitor price is based on exactly the same criteria as your booking including but not limited to duration, hotels, board basis, transport provided, meals and refreshments, activities etc.
3.2 The price to be matched must be generally available to book online and reserve immediately. Specifically the price should not be reduced by redemption of a voucher or loyalty scheme or group discount. We are also only able to price match bookings paid in full through NSA Adventure & Travel Services Ltd. The price comparison must be with a different travel provider to whom your booking is made.
3.3 The price match guarantee applies to each individual booking. Infrequently, competitor websites may display prices no longer available or otherwise incorrect and where we believe this could be the case we will check with the competitor / travel provider directly to make sure the price shown is accurate before refunding.
3.4 Here is how to claim: The person who placed the booking through NSA Adventure & Travel Services Ltd should make the claim by emailing us at info@northstaradventure.co.uk within 24 hours of making a booking, putting the words 'price match' in the subject line and enclosing evidence of the lower price, for example a screen shot. We only allow a 24-hour claim period because pricing across the vast range of travel services are moving very frequently. We are promising you the best price when you book. We reserve the right to refuse any claim where we are unable to verify the claim to our satisfaction, in accordance with the above points.
3.5 Our advertised prices are subject to variable and seasonal pricing, which are both standard practice within the travel industry. This means that our prices can vary at any time in accordance with demand, market conditions and availability, so it is likely that different travellers on the same adventure have been charged different prices. Any reduced prices or discounts for the same tour you have booked that may become available after you have paid your deposit and confirmed your booking will not apply. If you wish to cancel your booking to take advantage of a lower price, full cancellation conditions apply as per the terms listed in section 12.
4. Booking Details
4.1 If your booking is made on the phone we will read back all booking details to you. Please listen and check for any inaccuracies, our team will be happy to make amendments at this stage before the booking is processed. Once you have confirmed all details are correct, we shall pass your details to the Travel Provider and confirm your travel arrangements.
4.2 If you book online you are wholly responsible to ensure all details are accurate and correct. If, upon making a booking you realise some details are incorrect you must contact us immediately.
4.3 Any amendments to any details after a booking has been made may incur charges from the Travel Provider.
5. Making A Booking
5.1 By making a booking with us you agree that
a) all passenger details on the booking are full and accurate (please ensure that names are exactly as stated in the relevant passport);
b) you have read all the terms and conditions set out on this webpage and agree (on behalf of yourself and all other persons named on the booking) to be bound by them and any applicable Service Provider's booking conditions;
c) you have read our Privacy Policy and confirm that you will provide our Privacy Policy to each named person on the booking; and
d) when making a booking, you are over 18 years of age, and where placing an order for services with age restrictions, you declare that you and members of your party are of the appropriate age of purchase for those services.
5.2 Confirmation of your chosen Travel Service(s) will be conditional on you making such initial payment as is agreed by us on behalf of the Service Provider, or payment in full, including applicable fees and charges. Your booking is confirmed and a contract between you, us and the Service Provider will only exist when we send you confirmation by e-mail on their behalf, which contains a valid Service Provider reference number (“Booking Confirmation”). Please check your Booking Confirmation carefully and report any incorrect or incomplete information to us immediately where we will try to assist you.
5.3 In any instance, where multiple bookings are made, they shall not constitute a “group” booking. Unless bookings are all made under the same booking reference, they will be treated independently (i.e. as separate individual bookings).
5.4 If you have chosen the option to spread the cost of your booking(s), all installments must be paid by the date specified at the time of making the booking. Unless otherwise specified, we will automatically (if possible) take payment from the same debit/credit card used to pay your deposit. If full payment is not received (for whatever reason) by the Balance Due Date, we will notify the Service Provider who may cancel your booking and charge the cancellation fees set out in their booking conditions. In the event of non-payment, the booking(s) may be cancelled – please refer to the cancellation policy. It is always your responsibility to ensure your balance is paid by the Balance Due Date.
5.5 We accept payment by debit/credit card (Visa, MasterCard, Maestro and American Express). We do not charge you a fee for using your card, however your bank or card issuer may apply an additional foreign transaction fee for non-UK registered cards.
5.6 Please note that booking requests can take up to 72 hours to process and sometimes longer if your booking is within 60 days to departure. A booking is only confirmed when we send you a Booking Confirmation with a valid booking reference number for each Travel Service. On rare occasions, we will be unable to confirm a booking, for example if the payment fails. In the unlikely event this occurs, our team will attempt to rebook the affected Travel Service at the same price. If this is not possible, for example because the payment is blocked or there has been a change in the price or availability of the booking, we will contact you via telephone or e-mail to discuss next steps. Unfortunately, there are times when the cost will have increased during this period of time. Any cost increases will need to be paid by you, as per your contract with each Service Provider.
5.7 Please note that some deposits are non-refundable, this is disclosed at the time of booking on the website or if booking via phone by the sales agent.
6. Your Financial Protection
6.1 We operate a ring-fenced deposit account which provides you with financial protection. When you make a booking, your monies are paid into this account.
6.2 For maximum financial protection, we recommend paying for your holiday using a credit card. This provides you with extra financial protection under Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act. This extra protection applies even if you use your credit card to pay for the deposit alone.
6.3 The money towards the tour Travel Service is paid to the provider upon the delivery of the Travel Service.
6.4 If you book a tour only Travel Service your money is transferred to a Client Account which means your money stays in that account until your service is delivered.
7. Insurance
7.1 Many Travel Providers require you to take out travel insurance as a condition of booking with them as detailed in their Booking Conditions. In any event, we strongly advise that you take out a policy of insurance in order to cover you and your party against the cost of cancellation by you; the cost of assistance (including repatriation) in the event of accident or illness; loss of baggage and money; and other expenses. If you have arranged your policy through us please check it carefully to ensure that all the details are correct and that all relevant information has been provided by you (eg. pre-existing medical conditions). Failure to disclose relevant information will affect your insurance.
8. Delivery of Documents

If at any time we waive any breach of any obligation arising under these Terms then that does not mean we have waived any other breach, and we shall subsequently have the right to enforce all obligations.
21. Force Majeure
21.1 Except where otherwise expressly stated in these Booking Conditions we will not be liable or pay you compensation if our contractual obligations to you are affected by “Force Majeure”. For the purposes of these Booking Conditions, Force Majeure means any event beyond our or our supplier’s control, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all reasonable measures had been taken. Examples include warfare and acts of terrorism (and threat thereof), civil strife, significant risks to human health such as the outbreak of serious disease at the travel destination or natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes or weather conditions which make it impossible to travel safely to the travel destination or remain at the travel destination, any event which we or the supplier(s) of the service(s) in question could not, even with all due care, foresee or avoid. These events can include, but are not limited to war, threat of war, civil strife terrorist activity and its consequences or the threat of such activity, riot, the act of any government or other national or local authority including port or river authorities, industrial dispute, labour strikes, lock closure, natural or nuclear disaster, fire, chemical or biological disaster, and adverse weather conditions, epidemics and pandemics or other health emergency, unavoidable technical problems with transport and all similar events outside our or the supplier(s) concerned’s control. Advice from the Foreign Office to avoid or leave a particular country may constitute Force Majeure.
22. Delays and Missed Travel Arrangements
22.1 If you or any member of your party miss your flight or another transport arrangement, it is cancelled or you are subject to a delay of over 3 hours for any reason, you must contact us and the airline or other transport supplier concerned immediately.
22.2 Under EU Law, you have rights in some circumstances to refunds and/or compensation from the airline in cases of denied boarding, cancellation or delay to flights. Full details of these rights will be publicised at EU airports and will also be available from airlines. If the airline does not comply with these rules you should complain to the Civil Aviation Authority at www.caa.co.uk/passengers. Reimbursement in such cases is the responsibility of the airline and will not automatically entitle you to a refund of your holiday price from us. If for any reason, you do not claim against the airline and make a claim for compensation from us, you must, at the time of payment of any compensation to you, make a complete assignment to us of the rights you have against the airline in relation to the claim that gives rise to that compensation payment. A delay or cancellation to your flight does not automatically entitle you to cancel any other arrangements even where those arrangements have been made in conjunction with your flight.
22.3 We cannot accept liability for any delay which is due to any of the reasons set out in clause 17 (Force Majeure) of these Booking Conditions (which includes the behaviour of any passenger(s) on any flight who, for example, fails to check in or board on time).
