Changes or Cancellation Made By Go-Mad Enduro
Every effort is made to operate itineraries as advertised. However
we do plan arrangements well in advance and occasionally have to
make changes for whatever reason. Go-Mad Enduro reserves the right
to do so at any time.
Due to local conditions and unforeseen circumstances, Go-Mad or its
employees may altar the itinerary of a tour in anyway with no refund
to the client. In the event of a major disruption as a result of,
including but not limited to, weather conditions, mechanical breakdown,
sickness, political instability or acts of terrorism (perceived or
actual), or other factors after the time of departure, every effort
will be made to utilize alternative arrangements. If additional expenses
are incurred through delay, accident or disruption beyond the control
of the company, such expenses must be borne solely by the client.
Go-Mad Enduro reserves the right to cancel any tour and either offer
an alternative, or refund the money's paid in full. This will however
be in rare circumstances..

damage to property or personal injury caused by the client during
the tour. Clients are responsible for checking in on time and for

trekking etc).
If Go-Mad Enduro considers the client to be unsuitable for a tour it
may in its absolute discretion cancel the clients booking or decline

or danger to other clients.
