To register for the tour, please complete and sign the two forms below, which you can download and print:
Reservation Form
Waiver and Release of Liability Form
TERMS AND CONDITIONS:
It is each individual participant's responsibility to read and understand the terms and conditions of The
Culinary Traveler's La Vie de Château Tour prior to submitting the signed Reservation Form and Waiver
and Release of Liability Form. As used herein, "The Culinary Traveler" includes its owners and its agents.
RESERVATION AND DEPOSIT:
A reservation requires submission of a completed and signed Reservation Form, a deposit of $500 per
each participant, and a signed Waiver and Release of Liability Form. Reservations made within 60 days
of Tour departure date must be accompanied by full payment.
PRICES AND PAYMENT:
All prices are per person and based on double occupancy. Single occupancy accommodations are available
with a price adjustment, as are rooms with private and/or shared bath. A final Tour-payment invoice will be sent
to the participant 90 days before the Tour departure date via e-mail and final Tour payment is due no later than
60 days prior to the Tour departure date. All payments must be by check payable to: The Culinary Traveler. If
the Culinary Traveler does not receive final payment 60 days prior to Tour departure date, The Culinary Traveler
may cancel the participant's reservation. In such event, the participant forfeits the participant's deposit.
TRAVEL INSURANCE RECOMMENDED:
The Culinary Traveler strongly recommends that each participant purchase travel insurance to protect the participant
from financial loss if the participant must cancel a reservation. However, travel insurance is not required to participate
in a Tour and is not provided by The Culinary Traveler.
CANCELLATION AND REFUND POLICY:
The deposit and final payment are non-refundable and non-transferable, unless an exemption stated herein is applicable.
In the event that The Culinary Traveler must cancel a tour, all payments, including deposit, will be refunded. If a tour
participant cancels a reservation, The Culinary Traveler must receive written notice of said cancellation in writing via
e-mail sent to info@culinary-traveler.com (with confirmation
of receipt from The Culinary Traveler). If such notice is received 31 or more days prior to the Tour start date, the participant
shall forfeit the participant's deposit but receive a refund of 50% of the participant's other payments, if any. If such notice
is received less than 31 days prior to the Tour start date, the participant shall forfeit the participant's deposit and all other
payments. If The Culinary Traveler is able to replace the participant with another participant, without incurring any extra
cost, then the participant shall forfeit the participant's deposit but may receive a refund as The Culinary Traveler decides,
in its sole discretion.
TOUR CANCELLATION, LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND SUBSTITUTIONS:
The Culinary Traveler may cancel the Tour at any time for any reason, including without limitation, a decision that the
number of reservations for the Tour is insufficient to operate the Tour profitably. The Culinary Traveler shall notify
participant of the cancellation of a Tour as soon as possible after a decision to cancel such Tour. If a Tour is cancelled,
The Culinary Traveler's liability is limited to a full refund of the participant's deposit and payment. The Culinary Traveler
shall not be liable for unusable airfare or for any other costs, damages, losses, delays or inconvenience of any kind
resulting from such cancellation. If, for reasons beyond The Culinary Traveler's control, a Tour in progress must be
interrupted or cancelled, The Culinary Traveler will refund a portion of the deposit and payment depending on actual
benefit conferred compared to the Tour as originally designed and scheduled. The Culinary Traveler may, in its sole
discretion, substitute a service or event of similar quality for any service or event stated in the Tour itinerary.
ACCOMMODATIONS:
Standard guest accommodations are double or twin occupancy and will include private, shared or adjacent bathrooms.
Accommodations are assigned on the first-come, first-serve basis according to the date that The Culinary Traveler
receives a completed Registration Form and proper deposit. The Culinary Traveler will make every effort to accommodate
tour participants' preferences and will confirm assigned accommodations with participants.
LIMITED LIABILITY AND PARTICIPANT RESPONSIBILITY:
The Culinary Traveler expressly limits its required performance to the delivery of a Tour as represented. If The Culinary
Traveler fails to so perform, its liability to the participant or to any person claiming through the participant, is limited to the
participant's payments received by The Culinary Traveler. The Culinary Traveler and its agents will not be responsible
for any consequential damages (e.g. participant's airfare or other out of pocket costs paid to others) that may result from
The Culinary Traveler's failure to so perform. The participant is responsible for damages caused by the participant's own
actions, and agrees to hold The Culinary Traveler harmless for any accident, damages or injury caused by the participant
or any third-party's interaction with the participant. The participant waives any claim against The Culinary Traveler for any
liability for loss, damage or injury resulting from acts of nature or of war/terrorism or for any expense or liability resulting
from labor disputes, government restraints, weather conditions, sickness of the participant, pilferage or any other cause
beyond The Culinary Traveler's direct control. Responsibilities of the participant include fitness for the Tour, and a
cooperative spirit including adherence to all local laws, respect for customs and culture, respect for other Tour participant's
privacy, and cooperation with the instructions of The Culinary Traveler and its agents. The Culinary Traveler reserves the
right to decline or restrain any participant if The Culinary Traveler deems that the participant's behavior is disruptive to or
inappropriate for the group or Tour, or is inappropriate or offensive to the group. The Culinary Traveler reserves the right
to remove any participant from a Tour if The Culinary Traveler determines that the participant cannot meet the physical
requirements of the Tour, or is disruptive to the Tour time schedule, or adversely affects overall Tour enjoyment. If a participant
is so removed from a Tour, or if a participant voluntarily leaves a Tour, The Culinary Traveler will not refund any deposit or
payment to the participant, and will not pay any transportation cost, airline penalty, or any other expense of the participant.
The Culinary Traveler will not refund any portion of the participant's deposit or payment if the participant fails to participate
in any activities, excursions, workshops or portions of a Tour for any reason.
TRAVEL DOCUMENTS:
Each tour participant must have a valid passport and must obtain any other travel documents required by applicable
government regulations.
CERTIFICATION OF HEALTH:
Each tour participant certifies that he or she does not have any condition or disability that would create a hazard or
hardship either for the participant or for other tour participants. Each participant understands that facilities and services
in France may be inadequate for certain needs and that such inadequacy cannot be corrected by The Culinary Traveler.
The Culinary Traveler makes no representations or warranties regarding special-care accommodations or handicap
accessibility for any participant of the tour.
WAIVER AND RELEASE OF LIABILITY:
Each participant will be required to sign and submit a "Waiver and Release of Liability Form" that conforms to these
terms and conditions at the time of tour reservation. |
