GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS. PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING WITH US.

Neither Panache Sailing nor its authorized agents shall offer or pay any discounts or refunds for missed or unused services which were missed or unused by the Client due to no fault of Panache Sailing, its agents, or representatives.
The Client acknowledges that the nature of Product tours is adventurous and may involve a significant amount of risk to Clients’ health and/or safety.

Accommodation, transportation, activities and excursions, and other components of Panache Sailing’ Products will be arranged by Panache Sailing with suppliers local to the region where the Product operates, who may themselves engage the services of local operators and/or sub-contractors. Standards of hygiene, accommodation and transport in some countries where Product tours take place are often lower than comparable standards than what the Client may reasonably expect in their home country or region. Panache Sailing at all times endeavors to appoint reputable and competent local suppliers and to comply with all applicable laws and regulations concerning health and safety in the regions where Product tours operate. The terms and conditions of all suppliers of Product components will be applicable to the Product component provided by such supplier and are expressly incorporated into these Terms and Conditions. These may limit or exclude liability of the supplier. The liability of Panache Sailing will not exceed that of any supplier of any Product component. The components that make up each Product tour shall be regarded as having been satisfactorily performed and delivered solely in reference to the regulations and laws concerning health and safety in the applicable jurisdiction where such component is operated.
The Client acknowledges by booking a Product and/or agreeing to travel with Panache Sailing that the nature of this type of travel requires considerable flexibility and acknowledges that they will permit reasonable alterations to the Product and/or itinerary by Panache Sailing. The Client acknowledges their understanding that the route, schedules, itineraries, amenities and mode of transport may be subject to change without prior notice due to circumstances or events, which may include sickness or mechanical breakdown, incidents in the location where the Product will be operated, flight cancellations, strikes, events emanating from political disputes, entry or border difficulties, extreme weather and other unpredictable or unforeseeable circumstances which are beyond the reasonable control of Panache Sailing.
At all times the decision of Panache Sailing’ Tour Leader or other designated representative will be final on all matters regarding safety and well-being of Clients and operational requirements of the Product tour. By travelling with Panache Sailing, the Client agrees to abide by the authority of the Tour Leader or designated representative. 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. If the Client is affected by any condition, medical or otherwise, that might affect Client’s ability to travel or participate in adventure travel activities, Client’s enjoyment of the Product tour being booked, the ability to travel or enjoyment of any other Clients on the Product tour, or the treatment to be administered to the Client in any emergency situation, the Client must advise Panache Sailing at the time of booking and complete a medical form provided by Panache Sailing, along with any other documents reasonably requested by Panache Sailing to ensure the health and safety of all Clients who travel with Panache Sailing.
Clients agree that they are responsible for any costs incurred by Panache Sailing, Panache Sailing’ suppliers or Panache Sailing’ partners, as a result of damage, destruction, theft, or excess cleaning fees related to Client’s accommodation, transport, rentals or other use of facilities while on Tour. 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 Panache Sailing’ 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 Panache Sailing Tour, 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.
