  1. Booking & Paying For Your Arrangements

A booking is made with us when you pay us the initial payment (as set out below) and a booking confirmation has been issued to you. We reserve the right to decline your booking at our absolute discretion and your initial payment shall be refunded to you.

The balance of the cost of your arrangements (including any applicable surcharge) is due not less than 8 weeks prior to scheduled departure. If we do not receive this balance in full and on time, we reserve the right to treat your booking as cancelled by you in which case we shall retain your deposit or relevant fees.

When you book a place on most trips you have the following options with regards to deposits and payments:

  1. Full Payment: Simply sign up and, once you are accepted onto one of our programmes, then pay the full cost of the chosen programme in full, immediately.
  2. Pay in stages: Pay a deposit to secure your place on the programme. Make payments towards your trip, as you like. As long as 50% of your tour balance is paid 4 months before travel and the remaining at least 2 month before departure.
  3. Payment Plan: Pay the initial figure advised to you at time of booking and, thereafter, make equal monthly payments starting from the first month following your booking and culminating no later than two calendar months before departure. You will be advised of the applicable amount of the up-front fee and monthly payments, at the time of booking.  

If you choose the Payment Plan, your deposit payment must be paid on a debit or credit card, following which we will provide you with a standing order form for your bank.

The Payment Plan does not apply if you book your programme within 8 weeks of departure.

Please Note: should any of the payments that you are due to make to us as part of your Payment Plan fail, we will attempt to take the payment in question again. If the requested payment continues to fail we will treat your booking as cancelled and impose the cancellation charges set out in clause 10.

The pay in stages does not apply if you book your programme within 4 months of departure.

Regardless of the payment method you have chosen, if we do not receive the balance of your chosen Camp programme in full and on time the relevant cancellation charges will be applied to your booking. If you book more than one trip at the same time as part of your travel itinerary, you will have to pay more than one deposit, a deposit is needed per programme.

When you make a booking, we will also require you to provide us with emergency contact details; so that we may contact your family member or other designated individual, in the event of an emergency.

  1. Education Qualifications

For some of our camp programmes, we include a Teaching Young Learners Qualification in order to ensure you are prepared for the teaching aspect of your trip. This qualification is included in the programme cost for all relevant programmes. Details of how you complete this qualification will be sent to you upon booking and it is your responsibility to complete this qualification ahead of your trip to ensure that you are prepared for the times in which you will be teaching children.

  1. Criminal Background Checks and Introductory Assessments Criminal Background Checks:

Please Note: it is a strict requirement that for all Camp.co.uk programmes you must have a current and valid Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check in place. For international camp programmes, you will be required to obtain the international equivalent. We are able to submit DBS checks if you reside in the United Kingdom on your behalf and you must obtain your DBS check through ourselves, please contact us for further information.

It remains your responsibility at all times to be able to provide a current (i.e. a new) DBS check (or the applicable international equivalent) before taking part in your camp programme. If you fail to meet this requirement, we will cancel your booking and the cancellation fees will apply.

In some circumstances we may pay for a criminal background check, visa processing, or a third party cost on your behalf. You will be responsible for these costs and you will need to pay the same directly to us via bank transfer or online transfer within 5 working days.

We must be informed of any previous convictions. If there is anything that you have not disclosed that is revealed when we receive a copy of your criminal background check this will result in the cancellation of your booking, in which case the cancellation charges set out in clause 10 will be payable. Please be aware that you must tell us of anything that could be present on any criminal background check that is undertaken. If you do have a previous conviction, as long as you’re honest with us then we will look at each applicant on a case by case basis as to whether or not you will be accepted onto the programme.

Introductory Assessments:

For some of our camp programmes you will be required to take part in an interview with the manager of that camp program, to ensure your suitability to take part in the programme in question. We will contact you to arrange this interview after you have made your first payment for your chosen camp programme.

Following the interview if, for whatever reason, we consider that we are not able to accept you onto your chosen programme we will cancel your booking and provide you with a full refund of all sums you have paid to us, at that point.

  1. Accuracy

We endeavour to ensure that all the information and prices both on our website and in any marketing material we may publish are accurate, however occasionally changes and errors occur and we reserve the right to correct prices and other details in such circumstances. You must check the current price and all other details relating to the arrangements that you wish to book before you make your booking.

  1. Insurance

Adequate travel insurance is a condition of your contract with us. You must be satisfied that your insurance fully covers all your personal requirements, and is appropriate for the programme you are taking. You may wish to consider: pre-existing medical conditions, cancellation charges, medical expenses, travel interruption or disruption (including for any FCDO restrictions if unable to travel), and repatriation in the event of accident, pandemic, epidemic, terrorism, ‘act of god’ or illness. If you choose to travel without adequate insurance cover, we will not be liable for any losses howsoever arising, in respect of which insurance cover would otherwise have been available.

  1. Pricing 

The price of your travel package is set in pounds sterling (£), regardless of your chosen Camp destination.

We reserve the right to amend the price of unsold programmes at any time and correct errors in the prices of confirmed bookings of programmes. We also reserve the right to increase the price of confirmed programmes solely to allow for increases which are a direct consequence of changes in:

  1. the price of the carriage of passengers resulting from the cost of fuel or other power sources;2. the level of taxes or fees applicable to the programme imposed by third parties not directly involved in the performance of the programme, including tourist taxes, landing taxes or embarkation or disembarkation fees at ports and airports; and
  2. the exchange rates relevant to the package.

Such variations could include but are not limited to airline cost changes which are part of our contracts with airlines (and their agents), cruise ship operators and any other transport providers.

We will absorb and you will not be charged for any increase equivalent to 2% of the price of your travel arrangements, which excludes insurance premiums and any amendment charges and/or additional services or travel arrangements. You will be charged for the amount over and above that.

However, if this means that you have to pay an increase of more than 8% of the price of your confirmed programme (excluding any insurance premiums, amendment charges and/or additional services or travel arrangements), you will have the option of accepting a change to another programme if we are able to offer one (if this is of equivalent or higher quality you will not have to pay more but if it is of lower quality you will be refunded the difference in price), or cancelling and receiving a full refund of all monies paid to us, except for any insurance premiums and any amendment charges and/or additional services or travel arrangements. Should you decide to cancel for this reason, you must exercise your right to do so within 7 days from the issue date printed on your final invoice. We will consider an appropriate refund of insurance premiums paid if you can show that you are unable to transfer or reuse your policy.

Should the price of your programme go down due to the changes mentioned above, then any refund due will be paid to you less an administrative fee of £30. However, please note that travel arrangements are not always purchased in local currency and some apparent changes have no impact on the price of your booking due to contractual and other protection in place.

There will be no change made to the price of your confirmed programme within 20 days of your departure nor will refunds be paid during this period.

  1. Jurisdiction and Applicable Law

These Booking Conditions and any agreement to which they apply are governed in all respects by English law. We both agree that any dispute, claim or other matter which arises between us out of or in connection with your contract or booking will be dealt with by the Courts of England and Wales only. You may however, choose the law and jurisdiction of Scotland or Northern Ireland if you live in those places and if you wish to do so.

  1. Cutting Your Programme Short

If you are forced to return home early or if you are dismissed from your position on the programme, we cannot refund the cost of any travel arrangements you have not used. If you cut short your programme and return home early in circumstances where you have no reasonable cause for complaint about the standard of accommodation and services provided, we will not offer you any refund for that part of your programme not completed, or be liable for any associated costs you may incur. Depending on the circumstances, your travel insurance may offer cover for curtailment and we suggest that any claim is made directly with them.

  1. If You Change Your Booking & Transfers of Booking

If you wish to change any part of your booking after our confirmation invoice has been issued, you must inform us in writing as soon as possible. This should be done by the first named person on the booking. Whilst we will do our best to assist, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to meet your requested change. Where we can meet a request, all changes will be subject to payment of an administration fee of £30 per person per change, as well as any costs and charges incurred by us and/or incurred or imposed by any of our suppliers in making this change. You should be aware that these costs could increase the closer to the departure date that changes are made and you should contact us as soon as possible. Where we are unable to assist you and you do not wish to proceed with the original booking we will treat this as a cancellation by you and the cancellation fees will apply.

Transfer of Booking:

If you or any member of your party is prevented from travelling, that person(s) may transfer their place to someone else, subject to the following conditions:

  1. that person is introduced by you and satisfies all the conditions applicable to the programme;
  2. we are notified not less than 4 weeks before departure;
  3. you pay any outstanding balance payment, an amendment fee of £30 per person transferring, as well as any additional fees, charges or other costs arising from the transfer;
  4. the transferee agrees to these booking conditions and all other terms of the contract between us.

You and the transferee remain jointly and severally liable for payment of all sums. If you are unable to find a replacement, cancellation charges will apply.

Important Note: Certain arrangements may not be amended or transferred after they have been confirmed and any alteration could incur a cancellation charge of up to 100% of that part of the arrangements.

You have the right to cancel or defer your confirmed programme before departure without paying a cancellation charge in the event of “unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances” occurring at your programme destination or its immediate vicinity and significantly affecting the performance of the programme or significantly affecting the transport arrangements to the destination. In these circumstances, we shall provide you with the option to cancel or defer your Camp placement to another date within the same calendar year of your original departure date. Please note that your right to cancel or defer in these circumstances will only apply where the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office advises against travel to your destination or its immediate vicinity. For the purposes of this clause, “unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances” means warfare, acts of terrorism, significant risks to human health such as the outbreak of serious disease at the travel destination or natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes or weather conditions which make it impossible to travel safely to the travel destination.

If you defer your program to a later date, the cancellation terms will not be updated and will be applied as per your initial booking.

Should a refund be owed to you, we will make reasonable attempts to contact you by email, phone, or other available contact information you provided to us to issue your refund. Refund credit is valid for one year from the date of cancellation. If we are unable to contact you during this period, your refund credit will be forfeited.

  1. If We Change or Cancel

As we plan our camp programmes many months in advance we may occasionally have to make changes or cancel your booking and we reserve the right to do so at any time.

Changes: If we make an insignificant change to your programme, we will make reasonable efforts to inform you or your travel agent as soon as reasonably possible if there is time before your departure but we will have no liability to you. Examples of insignificant changes include alteration of your outward/return flights by less than 12 hours, changes to aircraft type, change of accommodation to another of the same or higher standard, changes of carriers. Please note that carriers such as airlines may be subject to change.

Occasionally we may have to make a significant change to your confirmed arrangements. Examples of “significant changes” include the following, when made before departure:

  1. A change of accommodation area for the whole or a significant part of your time away. 2. A change of accommodation to that of a lower standard or classification for the whole or a significant part of your time away.

We may cancel your programme before this date if, e.g., the minimum number of clients required for a particular programme is not reached. Please Note: for all of the camp programmes that we offer, we require a minimum number of travelers to have booked on to the programme, in order for us to be able to operate it.

If we have to make a significant change or cancel, we will tell you as soon as possible and if there is time to do so before departure, we will offer you the choice of:

  1. (for significant changes) accepting the changed arrangements; or
  2. deferral of your placement to a date within the same calendar year; or
  3. having a refund of all monies paid; or
  4. accepting an offer of alternative travel arrangements of a comparable or higher standard from us, if available (at no extra cost); or
  5. if available, accepting an offer of alternative arrangements of a lower standard, with a refund of the price difference between the original arrangements and the alternative arrangements.

You must notify us of your choice within 7 days of our offer. If we do not hear from you within 7 days, we will contact you again to request notification of your choice. If you fail to respond again, we will assume that you have chosen to accept the change or alternative booking arrangements.

Should a refund be owed to you, we will make reasonable attempts to contact you by email, phone, or other available contact information you provided to us to issue your refund. Refund credit is valid for one year from the date of cancellation. If we are unable to contact you during this period, your refund credit will be forfeited.

Except where otherwise expressly stated in these Booking Conditions we will not be liable or pay you compensation if our contractual obligations to you are affected by “Force Majeure”. For the purposes of these Booking Conditions, Force Majeure means any event beyond our or our supplier’s control, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all reasonable measures had been taken. Examples include warfare and acts of terrorism (and threat thereof), civil strife, significant risks to human health such as the outbreak of serious disease at the travel destination, pandemics,

epidemics or natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes or weather conditions which make it impossible to travel safely to the travel destination or remain at the travel destination, the act of any government or other national or local authority including port or river authorities, industrial dispute, labour strikes, lock closure, natural or nuclear disaster, fire, chemical or biological disaster, unavoidable technical problems with transport and all similar events outside our or the supplier(s) concerned’s control.

Any special requests must be advised to us at the time of booking e.g. diet, room location, a particular facility at a hotel etc. You should then confirm your requests in writing. Whilst every effort will be made by us to try and arrange your reasonable special requests, we cannot guarantee that they will be fulfilled. The fact that a special request has been noted on your confirmation invoice or any other documentation or that it has been passed on to the supplier is not confirmation that the request will be met. Failure to meet any special request will not be a breach of contract on our part unless the request has been specifically confirmed by us. We do not accept bookings that are conditional upon any special request being met.

  1. Disabilities and Medical Problems

We may require you to produce a doctor’s certificate certifying that you are fit to participate. Acting reasonably, if we are unable to properly accommodate the needs of the person(s) concerned, we will not confirm your booking or if you did not give us full details at the time of booking, we will cancel it and impose applicable cancellation charges when we become aware of these details.  We must be made aware of any changes to your health history that occur after booking.

  1. Your Behaviour

All our customers are expected to conduct themselves in an orderly and acceptable manner and not to disrupt the enjoyment of others. If in our opinion or in the opinion of any other person in authority, your behaviour or that of any member of your party is causing or is likely to cause distress, danger or annoyance to any other customers or any third party, or damage to property, or to cause a delay or diversion to transportation, we reserve the right to terminate your booking with us immediately. In the event of such termination our liability to you and/or your party will cease and you and/or your party will be required to leave your accommodation or other arrangements immediately.

  • loss of and/or damage to any luggage or personal possessions and money: the maximum amount we will have to pay you in respect of these claims is an amount equivalent to the excess on your insurance policy which applies to this type of loss per person in total because you are required to have adequate insurance in place to cover any losses of this kind.

  1. The extent of our liability will in all cases be limited as if we were carriers under the appropriate Conventions, which include The Warsaw/Montreal Convention (international travel by air); The Athens Convention (with respect to sea travel); The Berne/Cotif Convention (with respect to rail travel) and

In addition, you agree that the operating carrier or transport company’s own ‘Conditions of Carriage’ will apply to you on that journey. When arranging transportation for you, we rely on the terms and conditions contained within these international conventions and those ‘Conditions of Carriage’. You acknowledge that all of the terms and conditions contained in those ‘Conditions of Carriage’ form part of your contract with us, as well as with the transport company and that those ‘Conditions of Carriage’ shall be deemed to be included by reference into this contract.

  1. In any circumstances in which a carrier is liable to you by virtue of the EC261/2004 (denied boarding and flight disruption), any liability we may have to you under our contract with you, arising out of the same facts, is limited to the remedies provided under the Regulation as if (for this purpose only) we were a carrier.
  • When making any payment, we are entitled to deduct any money which you have received or are entitled to receive from the transport provider or hotelier for the complaint or claim in question.
  1. Subject to these Booking Conditions, if we or our suppliers negligently perform or arrange those services set out in the confirmation invoice and the information we provided to you regarding the services prior to booking and we don’t remedy or resolve your complaint within a reasonable period of time, and this has affected the enjoyment of your package holiday you may be entitled to an appropriate price reduction. You must inform us without undue delay of any failure to perform or improper performance of the travel services included in this package. The level of any such price reduction in respect of any claim for damages whatsoever will be calculated taking into consideration all relevant factors such as but not limited to: following the complaints procedure as described in these Booking Conditions and the extent to which ours or our employees’ or suppliers’ negligence affected the overall enjoyment of your holiday.

  • relate to any business;
  • indirect or consequential loss of any kind.
  1. We will not accept responsibility for services or facilities which do not form part of our agreement or where they are not advertised in our brochure. For example any excursion you book whilst away, or any service or facility which any other supplier agrees to provide for you.
  1. Where it is impossible for you to return to your departure point as per the agreed return date of your package, due to “unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances”, we shall provide you with any necessary accommodation (where possible, of a comparable standard) for a period not exceeding three nights per person. Please note that the 3-night cap does not apply to persons with reduced mobility, pregnant women or unaccompanied minors, nor to persons needing specific medical assistance, provided we have been notified of these particular needs at least 48 hours before the start of your programme. For the purposes of this clause, “unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances” mean warfare, acts of terrorism, significant risks to human health such as the outbreak of serious disease at the travel destination or natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes or weather conditions which make it impossible to travel safely back to your departure point.

19.Passport, Visa and Immigration Requirements & Health Formalities

It is your responsibility to check and fulfil the passport, visa, health and immigration requirements applicable to your itinerary.

We can only provide general information about this. You must check requirements for your own specific circumstances with the relevant Embassies and/or Consulates and your own doctor as applicable. Requirements do change and you must check the up to date position in good time before departure.

Most countries now require passports to be valid for at least 6 months after your return date. If your passport is in its final year, you should check with the Embassy of the country you are visiting.

For travel to Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein and Switzerland, UK GHIC and EHIC cannot be used for medical treatment. Passengers to these destinations should obtain comprehensive medical insurance prior to departure, including cover for emergency medical treatment and associated costs.

You agree to reimburse us in relation to any fines or other losses which we incur as a result of your failure to comply with any passport, visa, immigration requirements or health formalities.

COVID-19 & Additional Costs

Further Travel Limited is not responsible for any additional costs associated with COVID-19 and the affect it may have on your trip. At your time of Camp departure, it may be mandatory for you to provide a Negative COVID-19 test or to have received the COVID-19 vaccination before entering.

Please visit the gov.uk website for more information on COVID regulations & travel requirements. If COVID-19 tests and vaccinations are required for you to travel to your destination (or any before, after or between, such as layovers etc) these are an additional expense to be absorbed by the customer, as per these terms and conditions

You will be required to apply for a visa to take part in your chosen programme. If you have not applied for your visa at least 10 days prior to your date of arrival or if the Government of your destination does not issue your visa in time to arrive at camp by your start date as listed on your intake, your participation in the programme will be cancelled and no refund will be given.

In the event that your visa application in your home country is rejected, the fees paid to us are

non-refundable. We strongly advise you to apply for your visa only in your country of citizenship. Visa applications made in a country where the applicant is not a citizen or permanent legal resident may face higher risk of visa denial. We cannot be held liable for visa rejections.

20. Conditions of Suppliers 

Many of the services which make up your programme are provided by independent suppliers. Those suppliers provide these services in accordance with their own terms and conditions which will form part of your contract with us. Some of these terms and conditions may limit or exclude the supplier’s liability to you, usually in accordance with applicable International Conventions. Copies of the relevant

parts of these terms and conditions are available on request from us or the supplier concerned.

21. Prompt Assistance 

If, whilst you are taking part in your programme, you find yourself in difficulty for any reason, we will offer you such prompt assistance as is appropriate in the circumstances. In particular, we will provide you with appropriate information on health services, local authorities and consular assistance, and assistance with distance communications and finding alternative travel arrangements. Where you require assistance, which is not owing to any failure by us, our employees or sub-contractors, we will not be liable for the costs of any alternative travel arrangements or other such assistance you require. Any supplier, airline or other transport supplier may however pay for or provide refreshments and/or appropriate accommodation and you should make a claim directly to them. Subject to the other terms of these Booking Conditions, we will not be liable for any costs, fees or charges you incur in the above circumstances, if you fail to obtain our prior authorisation before making your own travel arrangements. Furthermore, we reserve the right to charge you a fee for our assistance in the event that the difficulty is caused intentionally by you or a member of your party, or otherwise through your or your party’s negligence.

22. Delays, Missed Transport Arrangements and other Travel Information 

If you or any member of your party misses your flight or other transport arrangement, it is cancelled or you are subject to a delay of over 3 hours for any reason, you must contact us and the airline or other transport supplier concerned immediately.

Under UK Law, you have rights in some circumstances to refunds and/or compensation from the airline in cases of denied boarding, cancellation or delay to flights. Full details of these rights will be publicised at UK airports and will also be available from airlines. If the airline does not comply with these rules you should complain to the Civil Aviation Authority at www.caa.co.uk/passengers. Reimbursement in such cases is the responsibility of the airline and will not automatically entitle you to a refund of your holiday price from us. If, for any reason, you do not claim against the airline and make a claim for compensation from us, you must, at the time of payment of any compensation to you, make a complete assignment to us of the rights you have against the airline in relation to the claim that gives rise to that compensation payment. A delay or cancellation to your flight does not automatically entitle you to cancel any other arrangements even where those arrangements have been made in conjunction with your flight.

We cannot accept liability for any delay which is due to any of the reasons set out in clause 12 of these Booking Conditions (which includes the behaviour of any passenger(s) on any flight who, for example, fails to check in or board on time).

The carrier(s), flight timings and types of aircraft shown in this brochure or on our website and detailed on your confirmation invoice are for guidance only and are subject to alteration and confirmation. We shall inform you of the identity of the actual carrier(s) as soon as we become aware of it. The latest flight timings will be shown on your tickets which will be despatched to you approximately two weeks before departure. You should check your tickets very carefully immediately on receipt to ensure you have the correct flight times. If flight times change after tickets have been dispatched we will contact you as soon as we can to let you know.

Please note the existence of a “UK Air Safety list” (available for inspection at https://www.caa.co.uk/commercial-industry/airlines/licensing/requirements-and-guidance/third-country

-operator-certificates/) detailing air carriers that are subject to an operating ban within the UK.

Our advertising material is our responsibility. It is not issued on behalf of, and does not commit the airlines mentioned herein or any airline whose services are used in the course of your travel arrangements

23. Advance Passenger Information

A number of Governments are introducing new requirements for air carriers to provide personal information about all travellers on their aircraft to the Authorities before the aircraft leaves the UK. The data will be collected either at the airport when you check in or in some circumstances when, or after you make your booking. Accordingly, you are advised to allow extra time to check in for your flight.

Where we collect this data, we will treat it in accordance with our privacy policy.

24. Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office Advice

You are responsible for making yourself aware of Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) advice in regard to the safety of the countries and areas in which you will be travelling and to make your decisions accordingly.
