of funds paid by you under any insurance claim. You agree not
to hold Harvest responsible for any decision made by insurers.
9. ERRORS / OVERSIGHT DISCLAIMER
Harvest reserves the right to correct any error in rates quoted
or calculated for any service notwithstanding that the invoice
may have been paid in full. Client/s accept that Harvest staff,
Management or its Agents could make an oversight affecting
travel arrangements. Client/s agrees and understands that
Harvest’s (or its agent’s) obligation is to amend such error or
oversight by prompt action/correction (if possible) or refund
based on actual cost of itinerary services/sectors affected.
Client/s understands and agrees to such limitation of claim.
10. BROCHURE CONTENT DISCLAIMER
Images and scenes shown are representative of those featured
in the pilgrimages but are not necessarily supplied or visited.
Maps are not necessarily to scale. Hotels are selected, subject
to availability, from grading suggested by local authorities or
our representatives with due consideration to the particular
needs of our pilgrims. Every effort has been made to ensure
that this and ancillary brochures are accurate at the time of
printing but, are subject to any statutory liability which may
not be excluded by law. The operator is not liable for any error,
omission or inaccuracy in these brochures whether occurring at
or after the time of printing in regard to price or any other detail
or booking condition.
In some circumstances beyond Harvest’s control, pilgrimage
itineraries may differ to that listed in the Harvest brochure or
pilgrimage overview. If this situation occurs, Pilgrims will be
advised by a Harvest Consultant or their Pilgrimage Director of
the alternate sites / travel. Harvest will do all possible to supply
comparable services / accommodation and/or itineraries and
there shall be no refund as a result of these amendments.
11. ROOM TYPES
Prices are based on twin share rooms containing two single
beds. An individual pilgrim’s request to share is accepted at the
time of booking. Specific requests (single/double/triple) must
be made at time of booking and supply cannot be guaranteed.
Single supplement surcharges apply for single room requests.
Requests for double rooms or double beds cannot be
guaranteed. Requests for triple room can be met by either a full
sized triple room or a twin bedded room with extra roll-away
bed. The twin share cost applies per person for all triple rooms
booked.
Pilgrims with a serious or ongoing medical condition or mobility
constraint (subject to travel approval by Harvest) must bring an
accompanying able bodied companion / carer.
Pilgrims electing to twin share with an unknown partner of
the same gender do so in the full knowledge that Harvest
cannot guarantee, and is not responsible for the compatibility
or medical fitness of your roommate. For all share requests,
the applicable single supplement surcharge will apply at the
time of booking. If you remain matched throughout the entire
pilgrimage, you will be refunded the single supplement within
two weeks of the completion of the pilgrimage. Any share
allocation will be at Harvest’s discretion and is not guaranteed.
Please note that should you be “matched” with another pilgrim,
Harvest cannot be held responsible if that choice is not to your
satisfaction. If at any time during the pilgrimage you consider
your rooming partner unsuitable, Harvest will use reasonable
endeavours to allocate single rooms for the remainder of the
tour, subject to availability using the prepaid single supplement
surcharge.
your mobility. Your condition will be assessed and may require
qualified medical consultation. Whilst Harvest will make
reasonable attempts to accommodate any special needs it is
not responsible in the event that we are not able to do so, nor
are we responsible for any denial of services by carriers, hotels,
restaurants or any independent suppliers. Most transportation
services, including touring coaches are not equipped with
wheelchair ramps.
Harvest regrets that it cannot provide individual assistance to
a pilgrim for walking, dining, getting on or off coaches or other
personal needs. A qualified and physically able companion
/ carer must accompany travellers who need assistance and
must be responsible for their wellbeing.
Wheelchairs, walking aides or any particular hotel room
specification cannot be arranged once a pilgrimage has
commenced. If a Pilgrim’s mobility limitation affects the
operation of the pilgrimage, that pilgrim will be immediately
returned home, at their expense and no refund for unused
services will be applicable.
18. PASSPORT – VISA
Each pilgrim is personally responsible for ensuring they possess
valid travel documentation. New passport applications must be
personally applied for. Existing passports must not expire for
at least 6 calendar months after the intended date of return to
Australia. Non-Australian passport holders must possess a valid
Australian Re-entry Certificate.
If you are travelling on a passport issued by a country other
than Australia, you will need to be aware that visa requirements
may differ from those for Australian passport holders. Visas
required by non Australian passport holders must be applied
for by the passport holder. Your Harvest Consultant will be
able to advise you of these requirements. Cancellation of a
pilgrimage due to incomplete travel documentation will incur
standard cancellation fees.

pilgrimage departure and are not inclusive of fees, costs,
charges and levies for additional flight arrangements and
stopovers. All costs are subject to change at any time due to
alterations in taxes, charges or levies imposed by airlines, tour
companies, governments, their agencies, principals and/or
currency fluctuations.
Children travelling with accompanying parents or guardians
are most welcome. Costs may vary according to the number of
adults sharing a room and individual child costs will be supplied
on request.
Harvest reserves the right to surcharge the price of a pilgrimage
due to such increases. If the total pilgrimage cost increases by
more than 10%, pilgrims will have the right to cancel within 7
days of advice of the surcharge without penalty.
A pilgrimage can only operate at the advertised price if a
minimum number of bookings are achieved. If at 49 days prior
to departure, numbers fall below the minimum, a surcharge on
booked pilgrims may be applied to ensure departure. Harvest
is not responsible for disruption to any travel arrangements not
booked or operated by Harvest.
13. ABOUT COSTS
Included in the selling price of each pilgrimage are (although
not restricted to) charges to cover the cost of research,
reservations from agents in Australia and from our overseas
destinations, postage, facsimile, telephone, bank charges,
currency transfers, documents, brochure production, printing,
distribution, advertising and remuneration to travel agents.
Cost breakup is not supplied. Deposit payment signifies your
acceptance of these usual commercial costs and fees paid to
our overseas associates.
14. ALTERATION TO PRODUCT OR SERVICES
If circumstances beyond Harvest’s reasonable control require
that inclusions be altered, product of similar value or standard
will be supplied. In the unlikely event of pilgrimage cancellation
by Harvest, pilgrims are offered a change of arrangements,
alternative tour or a full and immediate refund without further
Harvest liability.
15. AIR TRAVEL
Flights booked for pilgrimages will be in economy class on
an airline of Harvest’s choosing for departures from Sydney,
Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth. Flights booked as
part of a pilgrimage will be via the most appropriate route although this may not be on a direct flight. If pilgrims choose to
travel on an alternative airline to the group, they do so with the
knowledge that additional costs / surcharges may apply. The
scheduled flights used for all departures are subject to the usual
conditions of the carrying airline and relevant to international
law. Harvest accepts no responsibility for alterations to air
schedules.
As air fare increases and fuel surcharges can be applied without
notice we reserve the right to apply the same at any time prior
to final ticketing. Airlines endorsing this and ancillary brochures
do not represent themselves either as contracting with any
purchaser of a Harvest pilgrimage or as having any other legal
responsibility with such purchaser.
16. HEALTH
Any medical condition, disability or mobility difficulty that
may affect the functioning of the group must be advised on
the booking form. Any pilgrim with a pre-existing medical
condition or illness must declare the nature of such condition at
the time of booking and make arrangements for the provision
of any drugs or other course of treatment that may be required
during the tour. Any relevant health or mobility conditions
not adequately disclosed may result in your immediate and
direct return to your point of departure at your expense and
without availability of refund. This clause is necessary to assure
the health and safety of all group members and in particular
those with whom you may be sharing a room. We recommend
you consult your doctor in respect of your intended travel
as this may also have some bearing on your application for
travel insurance. Furthermore your doctor or the relevant
Government Health authorities can advise on any vaccination
requirements necessary. Certain pilgrims with a serious or
ongoing medical condition or mobility constraint (subject
to travel approval by Harvest) must bring an accompanying
companion / carer. (refer SECTION 17 – MINIMUM MOBILITY
REQUIREMENTS)
All requests for health / medical clearance submitted by
pilgrims are at the sole discretion of the operating carrier / tour
operator / travel insurance company. Harvest cannot be held
responsible for the outcome of these decisions.
17. MINIMUM MOBILITY REQUIREMENTS
Many of the sites visited on our pilgrimages require a
reasonable amount of walking. Harvest must be advised, at
the time of booking, of ANY physical condition that will affect
20. SPECIAL REQUESTS
Any special requests (such as airline seating or dietary
requirements) made at the time of booking are on a request only
basis. Harvest will do all possible to accommodate requests but
cannot guarantee these can be met in all instances.

the Global Pilgrim Alliance. It is Harvest’s obligation to make
these bookings on your behalf. We are not responsible for the
operation of these services nor do we make or give any warranty
