Two weeks’ notice or less: 50% of the total fee

In the event your Guide considers that you should not attempt to do a specific tour – for example because of unexpected adverse weather – and there is no mutually agreeable alternative tour, you would receive a full refund for any monies paid for guide services.

Refunds will not be made for any tours cancelled by clients because of conditions prevailing outside the UK. Such refunds should be covered by clients’ Travel Insurance.

DGA Tours cannot be responsible for cancellations due to unscheduled closures by third party suppliers, or events beyond its control, but will do all possible to offer an alternative. Nor is it liable for any loss, accident, injury or damage to clients and their personal effects.

General Terms:
Please provide appropriate child car seats for babies and small children. With advance notice your Driver Guide may be able to supply a suitable child seat at a small extra charge.

UK law requires seatbelts to be worn by all occupants of a moving vehicle. UK law forbids smoking in any Private Hire Vehicle.

If clients wish to extend their tour beyond the agreed booked time, this is normally possible, subject to mutual agreement about the additional expense this will incur.

Problems and Complaints:
Problems and complaints should be addressed firstly to DGA Bookings in writing. As DGA Tours operates under the law of the UK, any disputes that cannot be amicably resolved will be exclusively subject to the jurisdiction of UK courts.

DGA Tours strongly recommends that all clients have suitable travel insurance to cover any losses that may arise from cancellations.
