Vilkår og betingelser

These terms and conditions apply to your booking on board the Vulkana. Please read them
carefully, as you will be legally bound by them.

  1. Your contract
    When you book an experience with Vulkana, the contract between the company and you
    will exist as soon as you or your travel agent asks us to confirm your booking. Unless a
    separate agreement is made, this is a binding agreement between Vulkana Drift AS
    (hereafter also referred to as the company) and guest, (hereafter also referred to as the
    customer). Otherwise the regulations laid down in the Act on Package Holidays apply to
    those trips covered by the act.
    Vulkana Drift AS then becomes responsible to provide you with the voyage/package,booking
    arrangements you have booked and you become responsible to pay for them, in accordance
    to these terms and conditions. When you make a booking, you guarantee you have the
    authority to accept and do accept on behalf of your party the terms of these booking
    conditions and accept responsibility for making all payments to us for all members of the
    party.
    A confirmation invoice which you should check as soon as you receive it will be sent on
    receipt of your deposit. If you wish to change or cancel any arrangements later you may
    have to pay an amendment or cancellation charge and additional costs (see heading 5,
    which may be as much as the whole of the original price of your arrangements.
  2. PAYMENT
    Once you have asked us to confirm your booking the total price of the arrangements you
    have booked is due and is payable as follows:
    2.1. Overnight tours:
    a) If you book more than 60 days before your scheduled booking date a non
    refundable deposit of 20%. The balance is due 60 days before your scheduled
    departure date.
    b) If you book less than 60 days before your scheduled booking date the full price
    is payable when you book.

payable when you book. The payment can be arranged by invoice or you can be paid on
board by credit card. Note that terms of cancellation apply (See heading 5.1.)

  1. PRICES
    The price of your purchase will be confirmed upon your reservation. The company keeps the
    right to correct the price. The main reason for the company to be able to adjust the price
    after the booking confirmation, is if there occur any changes in public taxes. If the customer
    wants to cancel the tour due to price adjustments this has to happen latest 7 days’ after the
    the date of the adjusted invoice. Also, there might occur additional costs if the guests have special requests which must be
    solved during the tour, which have not been taken account for in advance. In this case the
    Vulkana will never add extra costs without a common agreement with the customer or tour
    operator.
  2. If you change your Booking
    If you wish to change your booking after it has been confirmed, we will do
    our utmost to help but it may not always be possible. Any request for changes to be made
    must be in writing to post@vulkana.no by the person who made the booking or your travel
    agent. If you change the number of people in your party, the price of the arrangements will be
    recalculated for the new party size.
    4.1 Overnight tour: preferably all changes must be reported to the company latest
    14 days before departure.
    4.2 Packages without overnight stay: reduction in the number of passengers has to
    happen in accordance with the cancellation terms (see heading 5.2.) Additional
    number of guests has to be notified latest 48 hours before departure.

You, or any member of your party, may cancel your bookings at any time. Written
notification from the person who made the booking or your travel agent must be received at
post@vulkana.no. Cancellation takes effect the day we receive your email. Since we incur
costs in relation to your arrangements from the time we confirm your booking you will have
to pay the applicable cancellation charges as shown in the table below (which also applies if
we cancel because you have failed to make payments on time – see ‘Payment’ section).
5.1. Cancellation terms for overnight tours:

  1. If we change your booking.
    Vulkana Drift AS reserve the right to change any of the details, and correct any errors in the
    information given or invoices at any time. If changes are made before you have made your
    booking, we will advise you before we confirm your arrangements. We reserve the right in
    specific circumstances to cancel your travel arrangements (for example if a minimum
    number of participants for a particular booking is not reached, we may have to
    cancel it). Even after we have confirmed your booking we may have to make alterations but
    we will not cancel your travel arrangements less than 8 weeks before your departure except
    for reasons of force majeure or failure by you to pay the final balance in full.
    Most alterations will be minor and while we will do our best to notify you or your travel
    agent of any changes as soon as reasonably possible if there is time before your departure, we will have no other liability to you.

  1. Complaint procedure
    If there is a problem during your booking, you must report it on board immediately or to the
    relevant ground handler, or tour operator, so that prompt efforts can be made to resolve the
    problem. In the unlikely event that a problem cannot be resolved at the time and you wish
    to complain, you must send us full written details within 28 days of your return. Failure to
    take either or both of these steps will prejudice our ability to resolve your problem and / or
    investigate it fully. In consequence, any right to compensation you may have will be
    extinguished or, at the very least, substantially reduced.
    Any complaints must be made to the Company in writing no later than 2 months after return
    from travel or the date on which the service complained of was performed. The Company
    will provide a final reply within 2 months. You must supply full details to enable the Company
    to deal with your complaint.
  2. LIABILITY
    a) Except where otherwise expressly stated in these booking conditions, we regret we
    cannot accept liability or pay any compensation where the performance of our
    contractual obligations is prevented or affected by or you otherwise suffer any
    damage or loss as a result of ‘force majeure’. In these Booking Conditions, ‘force
    majeure’ means any event which we or the supplier of the service(s) (eks. Guiding
    company) in question could not, even with all due care, foresee or avoid. Such events
    may include war or threat of war, riot, civil strife, actual or threatened terrorist
    activity, industrial dispute, natural or nuclear disaster, adverse weather conditions,
    fire and all similar events outside our control.
    b) We will accept responsibility for the booking on board including accommodation / full

    before coming on the Vulkana.
