BOOKINGS AND PAYMENTS
Please read carefully. If you book dates with me, you agree to these terms, which are standard to our industry.
- A nonrefundable deposit is required to confirm a booking. All prices will be quoted in New Zealand Dollars (NZD) .
- A deposit invoice will be issued and can be paid by www.wise.com, Paypal, bank cheque or by direct credit to my bank account. Details are included in my invoice. Please included transaction fees. If using Paypal , please include the 4 percent transaction fee these companies charge. If making an international wire transfer, please include the $27 incoming bank fee. (If paying using this method a single payment is cheaper.) No transaction fees are necessary for direct deposit from a New Zealand account or cash. www.wise.com has the cheapest fees, at only $6 per $1,000.
- Fishing dates specified in the deposit invoice will be held for seven days from the invoice date.
- Deposits will be a minimum of , 33% for multi day or 50% for single day and late notice booking, of the estimated total guiding fee.
- If clients cancel, the deposit can be applied to another date.
- The balance is due the day the trip begins, with any additional costs incurred due the day the trip finishes.
- Clients accept responsibility for paying for any equipment they damage when the trip is finished.
- Preferred methods of payment are: cash, www.Wise.com, Paypal, internet banking, bank transfer or bank cheque.
- Foreign personal cheques are not accepted.
- Travel insurance is highly recommended. Ask your travel or insurance agent to go over coverage and deductibles. Earthquakes in November of 2016 remind us of the relevance of this point.
- Late cancellations are a significant burden for any small business. This is especially true with fly-fishing travel companies. In case of client cancellations, the deposit is forfeited unless the client finds a replacement angler.
- Cancellations less than two weeks before trip result in the client owing full payment unless the date can be filled.
- In most cases, Mataura Valley Trout Safaris will honor deposits towards another trip within a calendar year. Late payments may incur reasonable billing, interest and collection fees as well as an Irish Tinker's curse.
- Mataura Valley Trout Safaris reserves the right to update billings when the itinerary changes, ie, going from days with shorter to longer drives.
- Mataura Valley Trout Safaris has an excellent safety record, is fully insured, and is certified for emergency first aid. However, we cannot be responsible for customers’ property. By placing a deposit, you agree to release us from all liability for loss or damage to your property, previous lifestyle or marriage. You also agree to release our staff from responsibility of personal injury resulting from the failure by you or your group to follow our instructions and/or advice.
