Terms and Conditions, waiver of all claims, release from liability and assumption of risks

El Mundo Magico Ltd (Registered in England, 21 September 2000, N. 4076005), reserves the right to accept or kindly decline the application of a journey participant at any time, to make changes in the itinerary whenever reputed necessary for the comfort, convenience and safety to all participants, and to cancel a trip at any time. In the event that a journey is cancelled by us, El Mundo Magico and its affiliates shall have no responsibility beyond the refund of money paid by the participant.

 

By registering the participant agrees that El Mundo Magico Ltd shall not be liable for any delay, change in schedule including - but not limited to - delays, rescheduling and/or cancellations of flights whether operated by international and/or domestic airlines (for which relevant insurance cover must be arranged before the trip and relevant claim forwarded to your insurance company), loss, damage, or injury to property or persons including death, or expenses occasioned by any act or omission by any supplier providing services to any program participant. When your trip within Peru excludes all travel arrangements from/to Lima, you agree that El Mundo Magico Ltd cannot be held responsible whatsoever for any delay, cancellation, or alteration of your flight itinerary and consequent potential losses arising from airlines' change of schedules.

 

In all cases, whether or not your retreat is organized by us and/or our agents and representatives in Peru, from your first arrival in Lima, you acknowledge that all scheduled airline flights are occasionally subject to overbooking or cancellation, and that we have no responsibility for any additional expense, omission, delay, reconfirmation or re-routing that may occur in such a circumstance.

 

Without limitation El Mundo Magico Ltd is not liable for any direct, indirect, consequential, or incidental damage, injury, loss, accident, delay or irregularity of any kind which may be occasioned by reason of any act or omission beyond its control, including, without limitation any wilful or negligent act or failure to act or  breach of contract of any third party such as a airline, train, local ground or water transportation, or other which is or does supply any goods or services for the trip.

 

You agree that El Mundo Magico Ltd shall not be liable for any loss, injury, or damage to person, property or otherwise in connection with any accommodations, transportation or other services resulting directly or indirectly from causes of force majeure, including but not limited to dangers incident to water, air or earth, fire, breakdown in machinery or equipment, acts of governments or other authorities, dejure or de facto, strikes, riots, criminal activity, thefts, pilferage, epidemics, quarantines, medical or customs regulations.

 

Force majeure is unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond our control, the consequences of which neither we nor our suppliers or associates could avoid, even with the exercise of all due care, further examples of which are war or threat of war  (whether declared or not), hostilities, civil disturbances, civil strife, terrorist activity, industrial disputes, natural or nuclear disaster, adverse weather conditions, landslides, avalanches, level of water in rivers or other similar events beyond our control and defaults, delays, or cancellations of - or changes in - itinerary, routing or schedules from any cause beyond the control of El Mundo Magico Ltd. The undersigned - and any family member - understand that although we and/or our partners will always endeavour to minimise the chances of anything unexpected, the Amazon Rainforest of Peru present risks and hazards of different nature, especially in remote locations, and will hold harmless El Mundo Magico Ltd - and its associates, representatives, employees and directors - for any physical, mental, emotional, or other reaction, death, trauma, or ailment occurring during the trip or afterwards.

 

The undersigned must be in a physical and mental condition appropriate to the activity. He/she must acknowledge all the potential physical and mental risks involved and agree to participate at his/her own risk. The responsibility of taking accurate and timely health precautions - alongside professional medical advice - remains entirely with the participant.  

 

Participants are expected to show respect at all times for the environment they are into, and to act with kindness and courtesy towards other group members and the local and native people met during the journey and during any of the external planned activities that may be integral part of the trip. Should the participant commit any illegal act or should his/her behaviour affect severely other group member's  enjoyment of the retreat he/she shall be dismissed from the party and shall have no entitlement to complaint or refunds and shall bear all the extra expenses of his/her return home.

 

The undersigned understands that must have a suitable medical and travel insurance arranged before the journey begins. This insurance must cover personal accident, medical expenses, loss of effects, repatriation costs and all other expenses which might arise as a result of loss, damage, injury, delay or inconvenience. We recommend that the policy should include a minimum cover of £ 2,000,000 GBP (or equivalent in other currencies) for medical and repatriation expenses. A copy of your policy should be sent to us, in order to ascertain it provides adequate cover, before beginning your journey in the jungle.

 

The undersigned - and any family member - will also indemnify El Mundo Magico Ltd, for any loss or damage resulting from insufficient or improperly issued passports, visas or other travel documents.

 

All bookings are done under the assumption that you are willing to sign such an agreement. Any second thoughts and subsequent refusal to sign such an agreement will be treated as a cancellation of your trip/retreat.

 

THE UNDERSIGNED HEREBY RELEASES, WAIVES, DISCHARGES AND COVENANTS NOT TO SUE El Mundo Magico Ltd, its representatives, associates, directors or employees (hereinafter referred to as 'releasees') from all liability to the undersigned for any loss or damage and any claim or demands therefore on account of injury to the person or property or resulting in death of the undersigned, whether caused by the negligence of the releasees or otherwise. HE/SHE FREELY ACCEPT AND FULLY ASSUME ALL SUCH RISKS, AND HAZARDS AND THE POSSIBILITY OF PERSONAL INJURY, DEATH, PROPERTY DAMAGE OR LOSS RESULTING THEREFROM.

THE UNDERSIGNED further expressly agrees that the foregoing RELEASE, WAIVER AND INDEMNITY AGREEMENT is intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the law of England and Wales and that if any portion thereof is held invalid, it is agreed that the balance shall, notwithstanding, continue in full legal force and effect.

The relationship between the undersigned and El Mundo Magico Ltd shall be governed by the English law. In the extremely unlikely event that a controversy may not be resolved amicably, you agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English Courts. Any controversy or claim arising out of - or related to - these Terms and Conditions, or the breach thereof shall be settled in Colchester, England (U.K.).

THE UNDERSIGNED HAS READ AND VOLUNTARILY SIGNS THE RELEASE AND WAIVER OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNITY AGREEMENT, further agrees that no oral representations, statements or inducement apart from the foregoing written agreement have been made and acknowledges that by signing this waiver he/she will waive certain legal rights, including the right to sue.

The undersigned agrees that any photos, videos, or notes taken during the journey may be published, or else used for advertisement, and hereby gives his/her consent, without consideration, unless prior written agreements are arranged.
