personal injury, death, additional travel expenses
or loss (damage) to property. In consideration of
the benefits derived by the trip, I/we voluntarily
recognize and accept all risks thereof. I/we
understand and agree on behalf of myself, my
dependents, heirs, executors, and assigns, to
release and hold harmless Strabo (Strabo
International Tour Co.) and any of its officers,
employees, guides, leaders, agents, or
representatives, from any and all claims,
including but not limited to liability for delays,
monetary damages, illness, injuries, death, or for

directly or indirectly from any occurrences or
conditions. I/we agree to abide by the conditions
set forth under the “Terms & Conditions” and
other sections as stated herein or elsewhere
published. I/We affirm that I/We are covered by
medical insurance, which is also valid overseas,
that includes coverage during any outbreak,
pandemic, or natural disaster as examples, and
any related expenses. I/we affirm that I/we have
not relied on any additional oral or written
representation of Strabo or their suppliers for
executing this release. I/we further acknowledge
receipt of this release and I/we understand and
accept its terms and conditions. Any questions
I/we had concerning this release have been
answered to my full satisfaction. Strabo
organizes promotes, and sells travel programs
and travel services that it purchases from other
suppliers. The suppliers are independent
contractors and are not agents or employees of
Strabo. They supply services that include, but are
not limited to, transportation, accommodations,
meals, and excursions. While we endeavor to
make travel arrangements with reputable
suppliers, Strabo is not responsible for the willful
or negligent acts and/or omissions of such
suppliers, their employees, agents, servants, or
representatives, including, without limitation,
their failure or inadequate delivery of services. All
travel and arrangements are subject to the terms
and conditions specified by the suppliers, air
carriers and/or applicable governing laws. Strabo
and the suppliers providing transportation or any
service can accept no responsibility for losses or
additional expenses due to but not limited to
delay, inconvenience, changes to or cancellation
of itinerary, sickness, pandemic or virus outbreak,
weather, strike, war, quarantine, terrorism,
defects in vehicles, breakdown in equipment,
animals including transportation by animals,
hiking, and any act, omission, negligence or other
causes beyond their control. All such losses or
expenses will be borne by the passenger, as tour
rates provide for arrangements only for the time
stated. Strabo is not responsible for expenses
incurred by trip members in preparing for the trip
(i.e.: air tickets, visa/passport fees, equipment,
medical expenses, individual transfers, etc.).
Assumption of Risk: I am voluntarily participating in the trip with knowledge that it involves some inherent risks and danger including, but not
limited to, forces of nature, illness, pandemic,
outbreak, or other health/medical related issues,
terrorism, civil unrest, strikes, wild animals
(including animals used for transportation), all
activities including hiking over rough terrain,
theft, cancellation or changes in itinerary,
negligent action of others or their agencies, or
means of conveyance or accommodation which
may not be operated nor maintained to standards
common in the United States. This includes
health-related issues, any and all expenses
related to health and safety, and I am aware that
medical services or facilities may not be readily
available or accessible during all or part of my trip.
This includes emergency medical care, presence
of physicians, and adequate medication. On
expeditions of this type it is not possible to
accommodate persons with severe health
problems or physical disabilities. It is the
passenger’s responsibility to judge the
appropriateness of the travel activities to their
own physical capabilities. By forwarding the
deposit, the passenger certifies they agree with
these terms and conditions and that they do not
have any mental, physical or other condition or
disability that would create hazard for them or
other passengers. Strabo and its suppliers take
no responsibility for special arrangements or
problems incurred by passengers unable to
participate in the planned activities. The right is
reserved to decline any person as a member of
the tour, or to require any participant to withdraw
from the tour at any time.
Insurance: You must have medical insurance, for those attending international tours it must be
valid overseas. We strongly recommend that you
obtain travel insurance, including coverage for trip
cancellation, interruption, loss and theft of
baggage, and emergency evacuation. Insurances
should include coverages for Assumption of Risk
reasons above. Strabo cannot be responsible for
these expenses. You will be sent insurance
information upon enrollment. Insurance
payments are non-refundable.
Changes In Services:
Rates: Rates are based on tariffs, U.S. exchange rates and supplier fees in effect at the time of
printing. We reserve the right to alter our prices.
Please note that if Strabo cancels a trip
extension, you are subject to the cancellation
penalty for the main trip should you subsequently
decide to cancel your main trip. Individual
transfers for those traveling independently are
not included in the land cost unless otherwise
stated. If the group falls below the minimum
paying passenger requirement, the expedition is
subject to cancellation or re-pricing.
Itinerary: Strabo reserves the right to cancel or make changes in the published itinerary
whenever, in its judgment, conditions warrant,
without consulting the participants. Participants
have no right to any refund or other
considerations in the event of these itinerary
changes. Strabo reserves the right to cancel any
tour before departure should safety or health
concerns warrant, in which case a refund will be
given for any and all funds which Strabo is able to
be reimbursed on your behalf.
Arbitration: Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the
performance hereunder, including without
limitation any claim related to bodily injury,
property damage or death, shall be settled by
binding arbitration in New York, in accordance
with the rules of the American Arbitration
Association and New York law. This agreement to
arbitrate does not waive or modify the liability
relates contained in the foregoing paragraph.
The above Terms & Conditions also apply in full to the suppliers, leaders, and staff of your tour and their representatives. CST Reg. Pend.
