1.1 The services that we GO Holidays Limited supply, consist of arranging and co-ordinating travel, entertainment and accommodation facilities and services, and making bookings, issuing tickets and issuing vouchers to be redeemed by suppliers.
1.2 We undertake to perform these services with reasonable care and skill. We will not be liable for any loss or damage or loss of enjoyment which result from the act, default or omission of any person other than ourselves or employees or any cause beyond our control.

1.3 We are not able to exercise control over services we do not supply directly, therefore we will not be responsible for any loss or damage arising from:
• Any booking made directly with a service supplier by your travel agent or by yourself direct; or
• Any services which are not provided by us and which are additional to those described in this brochure.
1.4 We will endeavour to provide the most suitable travel arrangements to meet the particular requirements you make known to us. However, travel is an individual experience, and your preferences and opinions may vary from our own. For this reason, we cannot take responsibility for your individual satisfaction neither can we take responsibility for weather nor for compatibility of fellow guests or staff during the course of your travel.
2. Supply of Travel, Entertainment, Accommodation Services and Facilities
2.1 When we make bookings with the suppliers of travel, accommodation, entertainment, activities, facilities or services (“the Suppliers�) we are acting as a booking agent for the Suppliers.
2.2 All travel, entertainment, activities, and accommodation facilities or services are supplied directly to you by the Suppliers. We have no control over the facilities or services themselves, or the manner in which they are provided by the Suppliers. Therefore you should be aware of the following conditions:
• We will not be liable for any loss or damage of any kind which may arise from your use or consumption of, or inability to use or consume those facilities or services.
• The provision of those facilities or services is subject to the terms and conditions of your contract with each Supplier.
• Where for any reason, a Supplier is unable to provide particular facilities or services, then that Supplier may be entitled, under its contract with you to substitute those services or facilities with comparable or equivalent facilities or services without incurring any liability to you. You should check your contract with each Supplier.
• All facilities or services described by us are subject to availability from the Supplier.
• We will not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage relating to your baggage, personal possessions, health or welfare, or delays or travel disruptions unless these arise directly from the service we provide to you.
3. Business Purposes
You agree that where our services are acquired for business purposes, or where you hold yourself out as acquiring our services for business purposes, the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 will not apply to any supply of goods or services made under these conditions, and we will not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage of any kind to you, including any consequential loss or damage however it may be caused.

We do not have, and cannot be reasonably expected to have, personal knowledge about all the facilities or services provided by each Supplier.
4.3 Facilities or services may change after the date of publication. We endeavour to keep travel agents informed of any changes to information in this brochure which are brought to our attention. Prior to booking your ticket, you should ask your travel agents about any changes to the published information of which your agent may be aware.

Prices are for lead in standard rooms unless otherwise stated. Prices exclude energy surcharges and resort fees (if any) which are both payable direct. Vehicle rates are per vehicle.
5.2 Events beyond our control, such as currency fluctuations, changes to the price of aviation fuel or changes to the cost of services and facilities may result in the prices charged to you being different.
5.3 It must be understood that if for any of the reasons mentioned in Clause 5.2 price increases or variation of terms are notified to us between the time of booking and departure, we reserve the right to vary the price to you up to the time of your departure.
5.4 For full details on Cruise conditions, amendments and cancellation fees please ask your agent at time of enquiry. Prices may not be available on all dates and are based on lead in category cabins.
5.5 If land only is booked a minimum fee of $10 per file will be charged if the file is worth under $200.
5.6 All prices exclude travel agent service fees.
6. Payment
6.1 A deposit of $100 must be paid to your travel agent within seven (7) days of verbal or written confirmation of booking request. Certain Suppliers may also require an additional booking fee or deposit to be paid. 6.2 A booking requested less than seven (7) days prior to departure may incur communication charges. 6.3 Final payment must be made no less than thirty (30) days prior to departure.
7. Amendment or Cancellation
7.1 If you wish or circumstances require you to amend or cancel your booking for any reason, you should advise us in writing through your travel agent at the earliest possible time.
7.2 Where you cancel a booking more than thirty (30) days prior to your departure you are likely to have to pay a fee. A cancellation fee of $200 will be imposed where cancellation is made within thirty (30) days of your departure.
7.3 The above cancellation fees are required to offset booking, communication and administration charges which will have already been incurred by us. In addition to our cancellation fee, you may also be required to pay cancellation fees imposed by our Suppliers (i.e. airlines, hotels, etc.) The amount of each Supplier’s cancellation fee is beyond our control, and payment is solely your responsibility. You should check with your travel agent concerning the amount of a Supplier’s cancellation fees.
7.4 To the extent that we are able to do so (bearing in mind we are dependent upon third party availability beyond our control) we will be pleased to incorporate any reasonable changes you request. An itinerary change may attract a fee similar to cancellation fees in Clause 7.2 above to cover our administration costs.
7.5 Some Suppliers may reserve the right to cancel or amend travel, accommodation, etc and GO holidays must therefore reserve similar rights to cancel or amend any holiday arrangements.
8. Insurance
We strongly recommend that as a minimum you insure yourself fully against cancellation, disruption, loss of luggage and personal property, and medical expenses. Your travel agent will be able to provide you with further information.
9. Items Not Covered
Unless otherwise specified, the cost of meals, drinks, laundry, telephone calls, insurance, sightseeing tours, local taxes, airport departure taxes, and passport or visa application fees are not included.
10. Package Costs
Included in the tour costs are charges for normal booking procedure costs, communication costs, administrations, research, printing, etc. Where the land arrangements of holidays are included in a composite package, an itemisation of costs will not be rendered.
11. Visas / Passports
For all holidays in this brochure you will require a valid passport. You are responsible for arranging your own passport, visa and health requirements (including inoculation where applicable). You should check with your travel agent who will be able to provide you with the necessary information.
12. Non-Use of Services or Facilities
If, of your own choice, you decide not to use part or parts of the arranged services or facilities, you will not be entitled to a refund from us (provided we have carried out our service with reasonable skill and care and to your requirements) and you may not be entitled to a refund from any Supplier.
13. Go Holidays Charter for Addressing Problems
In the event that you should strike a problem or you are dissatisfied with some aspect of the services or facilities during the course of your trip, our recommendation is that you take the matter up directly with the supplier of the service at the time, or as soon as practicable in the circumstances. This provides the opportunity to have the matter discussed and investigated on the spot and a remedy negotiated then and there to enable you to continue enjoying your holiday. We have found from experience that it is very difficult (in some countries impossible) for us to obtain redress for you once travel has been completed. If this does not work, we wish to be involved at the earliest possible moment and our commitment is that we will immediately work on resolving the issue to your satisfaction. Please refer to our exclusive GO GUARANTEE and Freephone offer at the front of this brochure.
14. Health or Disability
Some Suppliers may reserve the right to refuse to carry or accommodate people who because of a health condition or disability may require services or facilities to be provided in a special manner. You should check this with your travel agent.
15. Legal Claims
Any claims or legal action in connection with the provision of our services to you will be governed by the laws of New Zealand. Any claim or legal action against the Suppliers is likely to be subject to the terms of your contract with them, and may be governed by the laws of other countries.
