The Client acknowledges that the degree and nature of personal risk involved depends on the nature of the Product booked, or the location(s) in which such Product is to operate, and that there may be a significant degree of personal risk involved in travel on the Product, particularly if such Product involves physical activities, trekking in high altitude, travel to remote locations, carriage by watercraft, participation in “extreme sports” or other high-risk activities, or travel to countries with under- developed infrastructure.

The Client must at all times strictly comply with all applicable laws and regulations of all countries and regions visited on the applicable Product tour. Should the Client fail to comply with the above or commit any illegal act when on the tour or, if in the opinion of the Andean Photo Expeditions (acting reasonably), the Client’s behavior is causing or is likely to cause danger, distress or material annoyance to others, Andean Photo Expeditions may terminate that Client’s travel arrangements on any Product immediately without any liability on Andean Photo Expeditions’ part and the Client will not be entitled to any refund for unused or missed services or costs incurred resulting from the termination of the travel arrangements, including, without limitation, return travel, accommodations, meals, and/or incidentals.

Clients agree to immediately report any pre-existing damage of this kind to staff of the accommodation, transportation service, or facility (as appropriate) and/or a Andean Photo Expeditions’ representative as soon as possible upon discovery by the Client. Client agrees to take all prudent measures in relation to their own safety while on any Andean Photo Expeditions tour Product, including, but not limited to, the proper use of safety devices such as seatbelts, harnesses, and helmets, and obeying all posted signs and warnings in relation to Client health and safety.

Client agrees to bring any complaints regarding a Product to Andean Photo Expeditions as soon as possible in order to provide Andean Photo Expeditions with the opportunity to address such complaint properly. Client agrees to inform the Tour Leader or other designated Andean Photo Expeditions representative at the earliest opportunity, or to Andean Photo Expeditions’ Customer Service department directly.
