AgraGuide acts as an agent for the airlines, railways, transporters, contractors and hotels; all exchange orders, contracts, tickets and receipts are issued by us in lieu of the terms and conditions and according to the services provided by the above.
The itineraries that are provided to guests are basically our sample itineraries and aim to give you an outline of the trip schedules that are offered by us. However, certain factors like weather, the physical ability of the guest and road conditions etc may mean some changes in the schedule, either before or during the tour, may have to be made. Therefore, the right to change the schedule is exclusively determined by us, keeping in mind the safety, comfort and the well-being of the guest.
Our charges are as per the prevailing rates in the market and the rates are also negotiated by us with the hotels, airlines and all other clients. However, airlines and hotels retain the right to modify their rates without giving us prior notice. In this case, AgraGuide holds the right to charge the rates stipulated by the airlines and hotels. All hotel bookings are based on the normal check-in and check-out time of the hotels, unless indicated in the itinerary. We will not be responsible for any delays and alteration in the program or expenses incurred directly or indirectly due to natural hazards, flight cancellation or accident, breakdown of machinery or equipment, breakdown of transport, weather, sickness, landslides, political closures, or any other incident.
We shall not be responsible for any loss, injury or damage to person, property or otherwise in connection with any accommodation, transportation or other services, resulting directly or indirectly from any act of God, dangers, fire accident, breakdown in machinery or equipment, breakdown of transport, wars, civil disturbances, strikes, riots, thefts, pilferages, epidemics, medical or custom department regulations, defaults or any causes beyond our control.
We shall not be responsible for it because we have no insurance policy that can bear the expenses of accidents, loss caused by sickness and theft etc. Hence we request our guests to seek such insurance policy in their home town itself so that they can enjoy a comfortable and tension-free trip with us. We also expect you to take care of all your personal belongings, as any loss related to baggage and personal property would be borne by you.
