Cancellation Policy

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Your booking is subject to our standard terms and conditions listed below, including the assumption of risks inherent in any chosen activities, equipment and/or supplies.

Booking Confirmation and Payment

To confirm a booking, reservation or order, you must pay a deposit of 10% of the value of the goods and/or services. We will send you a booking receipt confirming your order, showing the balance due on your account.

To complete your booking, reservation or order, you must pay the balance due on your account at least seven days before the tour or required date.

To collect hire equipment, you must pay a security deposit of $100 on the day of hire, fully refundable on return of the equipment in good working order (see below under hire equipment)

To secure an extra pick up trip if you are an independent walker delayed at the end of your trip by an unforeseen delay (see below under transport services) we will charge you a surcharge of 50% of the fare for that trip. We will ask you to provide your credit card details in advance to cover this possibility.

We accept all forms of payment and have listed the options on our booking platform.

Client numbers maximum:

Day Tours – max 13

Transport

The minimum number of passengers is two.

If we make an extra pickup trip without passengers (see Unforeseen delays below), we will charge you a surcharge of 50% of the fare for the trip. We will ask you to provide your credit card details in advance to cover this possibility.

We have allowed for a brief stop en route at a public convenience on journeys greater than two hours – additional unscheduled stops will attract a charge of $30/hour or part thereof (including GST) to cover our driver’s wages. Airport parking fees are not included in our fares and are payable by our clients.

Unforeseen Delays

We recognise that bushwalkers may experience unforeseen delays on the track and may not arrive at their end-point by the prearranged time.

If there are delays, this is our standard operating procedure:

We will:

arrive at the agreed pickup point at the agreed time (subject to any unforeseen delays we might also encounter en route, for example, roadworks, accidents, etc)

wait a further hour for the bushwalkers if they are not at the pickup point before returning to Base Camp Tasmania without them

leave a message at the Walkers’ Registration Point advising of our expected return time the next day

return the following day as soon as possible after fulfilling prior booking commitments

contact emergency services on the bushwalkers’ behalf if the bushwalkers have still failed to arrive at the pickup point, and there is no apparent reason for their delay. Before departure bushwalkers should provide us with a Trip Intention Form to assist emergency services.

the hire period includes the pick-up day, but excludes the return day (if the equipment is returned by 10am on that day) and we calculate charges accordingly
