Updated June 28th, 2021

BOOKING, PAYMENT, PRICES, AND AVAILABILITY
All rates are quoted per person, in U.S. Dollars, and are subject to taxes and fees where applicable. Prices, fees, taxes, times, dates, and availability are subject to change without notice. Stampede Excursions requires payment in full at the time of booking. Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover credit cards are accepted. Cash is welcome, however, a credit card must be used to hold the reservation. Upon receipt of cash, any holds or charges will be refunded. For all flight tours, Stampede Excursions needs the accurate weight of each guest. This is imperative for aircraft safety and loading. If an individual does not want to give an individual weight, the weights of the group may be combined, but need to be accurate.

Stampede Excursions provides a gateway through which you can enter into a contract with a third party supplier of a Product (“Supplier”). Stampede Excursions may at times be the supplier of a product but may also not be a supplier of any Product, and your contract for the supply of any Product you Book will be directly between you and the applicable Supplier. In respect of each Booking, Stampede Excursions acts as an agent for the Supplier, meaning that a Product listing represents an invitation to you to make an offer to a Supplier and that we are free to accept or reject such offer on behalf of that Supplier.

If you make a Booking, you agree to review and be bound by the applicable Supplier’s terms and conditions and any other rules or policies related to the Product (the “Supplier Terms”). Your interactions with Suppliers are at your own risk. Stampede Excursions will have no liability with respect to the acts, omissions, errors, representations, warranties, breaches, or negligence of any Supplier or for any personal injuries, death, property damage, or other damages or expenses resulting from your interactions with any Supplier.

Stampede Excursions does not provide all Experiences listed. Although Stampede Excursions provides a website and gateway with information about Products and facilitates Bookings, such actions do not in any way constitute Stampede Excursions’ sponsorship or approval of such Suppliers, or any affiliation between Stampede Excursions and any Supplier. You agree that Stampede Excursions is not responsible for the accuracy or completeness of information it obtains from Suppliers and/or that is displayed on the Website.

By making a Booking, you warrant that you are at least 18 years of age, that you possess the legal authority to enter into both this binding agreement and a binding agreement with the Supplier, to use the Services, to purchase the Product, and that all information you supply is true and accurate. You further agree that you will use the Platform to make only legitimate Bookings for you and/or others for whom you are legally authorized to act.

Stampede Excursions may, in its sole discretion, cancel, change, modify, or discontinue services due to a Force Majeure Event or other safety-related events. Stampede Excursions will do its best to inform guests in a timely manner. However, some situations may prevent notification or notification may occur with short notice.

CANCELLATION AND CHANGES
All tours require payment in full at time of booking. Unless otherwise specified in product-specific terms and conditions, you may cancel or change your reservation up to 7 days prior and receive a full refund, minus an administrative fee. Cancellations or changes received within 7 days of departure are non-refundable. We strongly recommend travel insurance for unforeseen circumstances that may cause last-minute cancellations. If you made your reservation through a 3rd party travel service, Stampede Excursions may not be able to assist in your modification. Changes and cancellations to 3rd party reservations must be requested by the 3rd party. If you are on a cruise ship, the onboard Shore Excursion Office cannot assist with refunds/adjustments.
