GENERAL CONDITIONS
Passengers are picked up and dropped back at accommodation in the Cairns area or en route. The operator,
Discovery Tours, reserves the right to alter the itinerary and location of passenger accommodation, if
necessitated by weather conditions or by any other unforeseen circumstances prevailing at the time of the
tour. The operator also has the right to substitute vehicles or an alternative operator, transport, and carrier.
The tour operator can also charge at any a “fuel levy” if it there is a dramatic increase in the price of fuel – we
would be very reluctant to impose such a charge and would only do so under extreme circumstances.
Discovery Tours is unable to guarantee exact arrival and departure times and cannot be held liable for failure to
make connections with other services or for any expenses incurred by the client as a result of weather
conditions, mechanical defects, or any other unforeseen cause. If for any reason the itinerary is altered, no
refund is payable by the operator. DTA reserves the right (without payment or compensation and whether
before or after commencement of travel) to exclude any passenger if that passenger appears likely to endanger
the health or safety of themselves or others or impair the comfort of other passengers; this includes any
passenger who commits any illegal act.
DTA reserves the right to change or alter your tour itinerary and carriers to those advertised without prior
notice due to weather, road or operational requirements and would do so with full consideration of your safety
and comfort. No refunds are given in these circumstances.
DTA takes all care but holds no responsibility for loss, damage, injury or death incurred at any of its utilized
accommodation providers and may change these providers without notice, making every effort to supply equal
quality where possible.
DTA are not responsible for any loss, damage, injury or death caused to a passenger by another passenger.
Itineraries are correct at the time of publication; however slight differences may occur as we endeavor to
improve our tour throughout the year. No refund is given for altered Itineraries however, we do so with your
tour satisfaction as our number one goal.
LIABILITY
The operator and its employees accept no responsibility for any booking, contract, travel, accommodation or
group tours which result in any loss, damage, accident, diversion, or theft in regard to luggage or personal
belongings, and will be exempt from all liability in respect of direct or indirect consequential loss or damage,
death, injury, sickness, irregularity, delay liability, and additional expenses, or inconvenience or any other event
beyond its control including accident, failure of machinery or equipment, accommodation, transport, or other
services
