TERMS, CONDITIONS, and AGREEMENT

Joan of Arc/Daughter of God
French Pilgrimage May 8-19, 2007

TERMS AND CONDITIONS: Price: $2,874.00

Payment, refunds and cancellation fees:  A $350.00 per person deposit is required for registration.  Full payment, including single room supplements if applicable, is due postmarked no later than February 1, 2007.  If full payment is made later than February 1, 2007, a $100.00 Full-Payment-Late-Free will be added on the trip price.  The deposit is non-refundable, except in event of the trip’s cancellation. 

Single accommodations may be available (there are a limited amount available) for a supplemental charge of $476.00, which guarantees single room accommodations throughout the pilgrimage, with a possible exception of the first night in St Thierry.  A $50.00 per person deposit is required for registration.  First come first served for all single accommodations. 

We reserve the right to cancel this trip due to inadequate registration that makes this trip economically unfeasible for us to operate, though we would inform you of this at the latest by April 8, 2007.  In such a case, we would refund to you the TOTAL TRIP COST.  However, we are not responsible for additional expenses incurred by participants preparing for the trip (e.g. clothing, equipment, medical expenses, etc.).  Participants are responsible for unanticipated price increases which result from a significant devaluation of the U. S. dollar, or significant gasoline increases.  In an effort to maintain lower costs, credit cards will not be accepted.  No refunds can be given once the trip begins, or for any meals, lodging, activities, or any other services not used.  Travel insurance is highly recommended.

- If you cancel:

From February 10-March 10, 2007 then you forfeit 25% of total cost of the trip price.
From March 11, 2007-March 30, 2007 then you forfeit 50% of total cost of the trip price.
From March 31, 2007-April 17, 2007 then you forfeit 75% of total cost of the trip price.
From April 18, 2007-May 8, 2007 then you forfeit 100% of total cost of the trip price.

We reserve the right to make any schedule or itinerary (and price) changes due to unanticipated circumstances.
NOTICE: Except for willful negligence by Chris Snidow and Catherine Henon, we accept no responsibility for loss or injuries of any nature, regardless of their cause.

5) Also included are all meetings and/or conferences with various scholars, experts, and/or historians of Jeanne d’Arc and her times throughout the pilgrimage.
-This tours requires a blend of adventuresome spirit, physical fitness, walking ability and mental alertness, and a capacity for accepting situations as they exist and not, necessarily, as we would find them in America.  We regret that we are unable to accept requests for special diets or itinerary variations.  Disabled travelers requiring special attention or treatment while on tour must be reported when reservations are made.   A companion who is able to provide the required assistance must accompany any person who is
unable to travel independently or who needs any type of assistance.

-Chris Snidow and Catherine Henon do not assume any responsibility for loss or damage to baggage or passengers’ belongings.
-Chris Snidow and Catherine Henon reserve the right to decline to accept any person as a member of the tour/pilgrimage, or to require any participant to withdraw from the trip at any time who presents a significant risk to the health or safety of himself or others which can not be eliminated or reduced to an acceptable level by Mr. Snidow and Ms. Henon’s reasonable accommodations.
-Your travel hosts, guides, translators, and fellow pilgrims:  Chris Snidow and Catherine Henon.
