Please confirm this before the trip begins if it is an issue for you. Payments, Cancellations, and Refunds To reserve a trip, a 50% deposit is required for trips that commence at least ninety (90) days in the future; final payment is due no later than ninety (90) days prior to commencement.

All cancellation notices must be received in writing (via e-mail), and will become effective as of the date of the e-mail that The Bucketlist Adventures sends back to confirm cancellation.

Arriving late or leaving a trip in progress, for any reason whatsoever, will not result in a refund, and no refunds will be made for any unused portions of a trip. The Bucketlist Adventures reserves the right to cancel any trip because of inadequate enrollment that makes the trip economically infeasible to operate or because of good-faith concerns with respect to the safety, health, or welfare of the participants. If a trip is canceled prior to departure, the tour operator will provide the participants with a full refund of monies paid to the tour operator; except in the event that the cancellation is due to a significant event that makes it infeasible to operate the  trip as planned, in which case the tour operator will provide the participants with a refund and/or credit toward a future trip equivalent to the amount paid to the tour operator. If The Bucketlist Adventures cancels the trip in progress, the participants will receive a prorated refund based on the number of days not completed on the trip. Except as outlined above when The Bucketlist Adventures cancels a trip, The Bucketlist Adventures and the tour operator have no responsibility for any expenses, including any non-refundable expenses, incurred by the participants in preparing for a cancelled trip or for any additional arrangements should the participants embark prior to the scheduled group departure date.

Failure to obtain documents does not negate the Terms and Conditions, and any extra costs incurred for rerouting due to travel without the necessary documents will be the participant’s responsibility. Health Requirements Participants must be in good physical and mental health. Any physical condition, diet, or treatment requiring special attention must be reported in writing when the reservation is made. The Bucketlist Adventures encourages participants to consult a doctor for specific medical advice about any activities or destinations. Certain trips may require that the participant obtain medical consent and/or proper travel medical insurance prior to departure as a condition of participation. Medical Authorization and Coverage In the event the participant becomes sufficiently incapacitated as to be unable to direct his or her own care, there is no one on the trip who can direct participant’s care, and The Bucketlist Adventures is unable, due to lack of time or service, to contact participant’s emergency contact, the participant, by registering and paying  for a trip, authorizes any medical treatment deemed necessary in the event of any injury or illness while participating in the activity including, but not limited to: X-ray, examination, anesthetic, medical or surgical diagnosis, or treatment and hospital care which is deemed advisable by, and is to be rendered under the general or specific supervision of, a duly licensed physician deemed competent to render the necessary care. In addition, the participant certifies that they have travel medical insurance which will cover personal accidents, medical expenses, medical evacuation, air ambulance, loss of effects, repatriation costs and all other expenses which might arise as a result of loss, damage, injury, delay or inconvenience occurring to the participant, or that in the absence of this medical insurance coverage, the participant agrees to pay all costs of rescue and/or medical services as may be incurred on the participant’s behalf. Photography/Videography The Bucketlist Adventures and any local tour operator as well as the trip guide reserve the right to take photographs or videos during the operation of any trip or part thereof and to use the resulting photography, videos, or recordings for promotional or commercial use. By making a reservation on a trip, the participant agrees to allow his/her likeness to be used by The Bucketlist Adventures-authorized third parties without compensation to the participant. If the participant prefers that his/her likeness not be used, he/she must notify The Bucketlist Adventures in writing prior to departure of the trip. The participant grants to The Bucketlist Adventures a non-exclusive, worldwide, irrevocable license to use any trip materials provided to The Bucketlist Adventures and/or the tour operator in any media for the following limited purposes: editorial use, promotion of this editorial use, promotion of The Bucketlist Adventures travel programs, or promotion of the mission of The Bucketlist Adventures. Assumption of Risk By registering for a trip, the participant acknowledges that he/she is aware that travel, such as the trip he/she is undertaking involves potentially dangerous activities, some in remote areas of the world, with a risk of illness, serious injury or death which may be caused by forces of nature, illness, or by willful or criminal conduct of third parties or by terrorism. The participant further acknowledges that weather conditions may be severe, adverse and/or unpleasant and that medical services or facilities may not be readily available or accessible or consistent with standards in the participant's home country during some or all of the time during which he/she is participating on the trip and that when available may not be of the quality which exists in the participant's home country. You may be put in a dangerous situations during this adventure. By signing up for a trip, you acknowledge that you understand the risks involved, and release The Bucketlist Adventures from any fault. The participant, by signing up and paying for this adventure, is choosing to put themselves in these situations involved in the adventure, and is in no way forced, or pushed to take any risks associated with the adventure. Arbitration Agreement (1) The Bucketlist Adventures and/or partner tour provider, and the participant agree that any and all disputes and claims that the participant and tour provider may have against the other that arise out of or relate to this agreement and the trip, including the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity of this agreement, including the agreement to arbitrate (the “Arbitration Agreement”) and the scope or applicability of this Arbitration Agreement (collectively, “Disputes”), including but not limited to the arbitrability of any and all Disputes, and even if the events giving rise to Disputes occurred before this Arbitration Agreement became effective, will be resolved in a binding, confidential, individual and fair arbitration process, and not in court. The participant and Tour Provider agree to give up the right to sue in court. The participant and Tour Provider also agree to give up the right to have Disputes heard by a jury and the ability to seek to represent, in a class action or otherwise (see paragraph 9 of this Arbitration Agreement below). The only exceptions to this Arbitration Agreement are that (i) the participant and Tour Provider retains the right to sue in small claims court and (ii) the participant and Tour Provider may bring suit in court against the other to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights. (2) This Agreement evidences a transaction in interstate commerce, and thus the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16, governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement will survive termination of this Agreement. (3) Any arbitration between the participant and Tour Provider will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) and will be governed by the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, the “AAA Rules”), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. The AAA Rules are available online at adr.org, or by calling the AAA at +1 (800) 778-7879. The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator. If the participant and Tour Provider cannot agree on who that single arbitrator should be, then the AAA shall appoint an arbitrator with significant experience resolving the type of Dispute at issue. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this Agreement. (4) If either the participant or Tour Provider wants to arbitrate a Dispute, the participant or Tour Provider must first send by mail to the other a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”) that sets forth the name, address, and contact information of the party giving notice, the specific facts giving rise to the Dispute, the Safari to which the Notice relates, and the relief requested. The participant’s Notice to Tour Provider must be sent by mail to The Bucketlist Adventures, 25515 wolf creek rd, Veneta, OR 97487. Tour Provider will send any notice to the participant at the contact information Tour Provider has for the participant or that the participant provides. It is the sender’s responsibility to ensure that the recipient receives the notice. During the first 90 days after the participant or Tour Provider sends a Notice to the other, the participant and Tour Provider may try to reach a settlement of the Dispute. If the participant and Tour Provider do not resolve the Dispute within those first 90 days, either the participant or Tour Provider may initiate arbitration in accordance with the rules and procedures provided for by the AAA. A form for initiating formal arbitration may be found on the AAA’s website at adr.org (“Arbitration Form”). In addition to filing this Arbitration Form with AAA in accordance with its rules and procedures, the participant must send a copy of this completed Arbitration Form to Tour Provider at the address listed above to which the participant sent the Notice of Dispute. (5) AAA charges fees to conduct arbitrations. Ordinarily, the claimant has to pay that fee to start a case, the participant will have to pay the filing fee charged by AAA. (6) If the participant is seeking to recover $5,000 or less, AAA rules provide that the Dispute should be resolved without a hearing, by submission of documents only. Either the participant or Tour Provider may request a hearing, however, and be responsible for the fees associated with it. If the arbitrator recommends a hearing even if neither the participant nor Tour Provider request one, Tour Provider will pay the arbitrator’s fees associated with the hearing. If the claim is for more than $5,000, the manner and place of the hearing will be determined in accordance with the AAA Rules. (7) Regardless of how the arbitration proceeds, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain his or her findings and conclusions. (8) The participant and Tour Provider may incur attorneys’ fees during the arbitration.  If Tour Provider wins the arbitration, the participant will be responsible for the participant’s own attorneys’ fees. In addition, if the arbitrator, at the request of the winning party, finds that the losing party brought a Dispute or asserted a defense frivolously or for an improper purpose, then regardless of the amount in dispute, the arbitrator must order the losing party to pay both sides’ arbitration fees and may order the losing party to pay the winning party’s reasonable attorneys’ fees, unless such an award of fees is prohibited by Applicable Law. (9) The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim. The arbitrator may not order Tour Provider to pay any monies to or take any actions with respect to persons other than the participant, unless Tour Provider explicitly consents in advance, after an arbitrator is selected, to permit the arbitrator to enter such an order. THE PARTICIPANT AND TOUR PROVIDER AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN THE PARTICIPANT’S OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE OR MULTI-CLAIMANT PROCEEDING. Further, unless Tour Provider agrees, the arbitrator may not consolidate other persons’ claims with the participant’s, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative, multi-claimant or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Arbitration Agreement will be null and void, but the rest of this Agreement, including the provisions governing where actions against Tour Provider must be pursued, will remain in effect. (10) The participant and Tour Provider agree to maintain the confidential nature of the arbitration proceeding and shall not disclose the fact of the arbitration, any documents exchanged as part of any mediation, proceedings of the arbitration, the arbitrator’s decision and the existence or amount of any award, except as may be necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration (in which case anyone becoming privy to confidential information must undertake to preserve its confidentiality), or except as may be necessary in connection with a court application for a provisional remedy, a judicial challenge to an award or its enforcement, or unless otherwise required by law or court order. Other Additional Terms and Conditions may apply to some trips and will be provided with pre-trip e-mails. By registering for a trip, the participant agrees to the Terms and Conditions published on the website.
