based, suitable for fun-loving people with a reasonable level
of fitness who enjoy bush walking, swimming and the great
outdoors. They are budget in nature and designed for active,
independent travellers between 18-45. We will consider carrying
older passengers if they are fit & active, however we do not
consider our more demanding tours (Level 3 on our Fitness
Guide) to be suitable for older clients or children. Although
good health and a positive attitude are essential, clients
do not need any prior experience. We reserve the right not
to carry persons that may endanger themselves or others whilst
on tour. Important: Please advise your clients that adventure
travel carries a higher than normal risk and a signed release
will be required from all participants before tour departure. |
