ESSENTIAL INFORMATION

Group activities Exodus offers adventurous holidays that involve different types of activities; as such you should ensure that you read all literature carefully for details of the level of the activity and the necessary experience (if any) required on your holiday. Whilst we ensure the activity is run to the local legal standard and risk assessments are regularly carried out, some activities do carry an element of risk and it is your responsibility to ensure that the trip/activities are suitable for you and that you are fit enough to join in. The leader?s word is, however, final, and if he/she deems you unfit or unsuitable for a particular activity you may not be allowed to participate with the rest of the group. If by choice or necessity you leave the group, we will generally not be able to supply alternative services, leaders and activities, and you should not expect this. Altitude Some of our trips go to high altitudes (3000m and above) where there is a risk of you being affected by Acute Mountain Sickness (AMS). In order to prevent this our itineraries are designed to help enable everyone to acclimatise to these altitudes, but you should be aware that it is still possible for you to be affected. Although rare, a number of medical conditions can also reduce your body?s ability to acclimatise, and thus will affect your performance at altitude and make you more susceptible to AMS. If you are worried about any pre-existing medical condition, or unsure of your own physical ability, we recommend that you seek medical advice prior to booking. More details on altitude problems on specific itineraries can be found in the Trip Notes.

PASSPORT & VISA REQUIREMENTS

Passport British subjects require a full passport for all holidays in this brochure, and this should be valid for at least six months after the date of your scheduled return home. If you are not a British national other regulations may apply to you, and you should check with the nearest embassy of the country you intend to visit. Please note that for some trips we need to request special permits, and as such we will require your passport details prior to accepting your booking. Furthermore, if you renew your passport after you have booked, you may be required to take your old passport with you to maintain the validity of the permit. Visa Full details of current visa requirements are given in the Trip Notes and in the confirmation documents that are sent to you on booking. Obtaining any visas that are required is your responsibility. Visa regulations can change, and may do so at short notice and sometimes without announcement. Where we become aware of changes to regulations, we will notify you if we are able. Providing we have used our best efforts to advise you of requirements, or assist you in obtaining visas, we cannot be held responsible for mistakes by embassies, third parties, and sudden changes to regulations, or actions of border officials that are beyond our control. 97 193
