General Terms and Conditions

1. The registration is subject to the services listed in this program. The registration is only valid after receipt of our written confirmation of the booking and receipt of the initial payment. The price has to be paid in Euro or US Dollar Traveller cheques upon arrival in Bali. The costs of the trip are calculated on basis per person in double-rooms. For singles it is possible to book ½ room (in this case we would arrange a 2nd person for the room) or a single room. On the Bali & Java Adventure tour the camping can only take place in double-tents due to the small capacity of the campground.

2. The included services of the organizer are explained in detail in the descriptions of each tour. Changes due to storms or other environmental conditions are in the responsibility of the organizer.

3. The order of the daily tours are subject to changes which might be necessary due to unforeseeable circumstances (i.e. weather).

4. Withdrawal of the organizer Requirement for the performance of a tour is a booking of at least 4 persons per tour. In case this minimum of participants has not been achieved, the organizer may cancel the tour until the 21st day before tour-start latest.

5. Each participant has to provide his bike himself. Mountain bikes are necessary. Your bike should have been checked thoroughly before the trip. For emergencies some tools are kept in the accompanying bus. From April 2005 you can rent a bike.

6. We do not accept liability for stolen luggage during the tour. We recommend to cover a corresponding insurance.

7. Liability
a) The organizer is responsible for the correctness of all the tour descriptions and the services included each, as well as a conscientious planning and enrolment of the tours.
b) The participant takes part on his own risk. He is especially responsible for his correct behaviour in driving according to the valid law and regulations in the destination country. There is no duty to wear a helmet in Bali, but we recommend it strongly to take a helmet with you.
c) We are not liable for the damages resulting of the negligence of one's duties by the participant, other participants or third persons.
d) Each traveller is responsible himself to be in the appropriate health condition for his tour.
e) The liability of the organizer for damages, which are not injuries to persons, is limited to the triple height of the price of the tour, as far as the organizer has not acted deliberately nor negligent, or if the organizer is responsible for the damages of one of the service providers chosen by him.
f) For all compensations of the client against the organizer, which are not resulting from intention or negligence, the organizer is liable for up to Euro 20.000 per person/trip in case of injuries to persons. This limited liability is not valid when the organizer is to be held responsible for the selection of the relevant service.

8. Special outdoor risks It is obvious that for all Bike- and Trekking tours outside the risk for illness, accidents or injuries is relatively high. That cannot be excluded completely even with the best possible care during the tour. This risk has to be taken by each client. You also have to consider that in the nature of the tours, it is nearly impossible to receive adequate medicinal treatment due to the technical and logistical problems in the regions the tours are taking place. So even the slightest injuries or incidents may lead in the worst case to severe problems. We ask the participants to take care of themselves in acting responsible and careful, an appropriate training for the tour is essential. The participation is on own risk and responsibility.

9. Guarantee and Consumption In case there is reason for reclamation despite the thorough planning of the tours, you have all the legal rights, after having given an appropriate time for improvement, provided you didn't neglect to inform the organizer of the shortcoming directly. There is no deadline if the solution of the shortcoming is impossible, is restricted or not possible due to the special interest of the travelling group. The demands for consumptions have to be claimed according to the law during one month after termination of the trip at Cocostravel Werner Duderstadt. After the period of one month you may only make demands for consumption when you have been prevented from it innocently. The period for consumption demands ends after 6 months after termination of the trip.

10. Each participant needs a valid passport and is responsible for the correctness of the document.

11. The invalidity of some of these regulations does not affect the legal effects of the remaining regulations. Verbal agreements have to be confirmed in writing by the organizer.

12. Starting point for all the tours is Airport Denpasar (Bali).
