Travel Inspirator provides expert, bespoke travel advice, planning and guidance to clients in return for a service fee. Travel Inspirator is completely independent, enabling it to fairly recommend suppliers or operators offering the best products (flights, accommodation, tours etc) to fit the planned itinerary, for the client to book with directly. Please note there is no guarantee that the flights or properties will still be available when the booking is made. Travel Inspirator endeavours at all times to provide a quality service in a friendly and professional manner. Travel Inspirator recognises the faith and trust placed by its clients and will do its utmost to plan the perfect trip according to clients' requirements.
Protection
Travel Inspirator only recommends the use of reputable companies. In the UK suppliers will be fully covered by the appropriate bonding (ATOL, ABTA etc), ensuring that any money paid to those companies is protected.
Risks
All travel involves an element of risk. Clients may travel to developing countries off the beaten track, where transportation, communication and healthcare standards are different to what clients may be used to in their home country. Travel Inspirator will inform its clients of the official UK Foreign Office travel advice regarding the safety or otherwise of travelling to certain countries, but cannot be held responsible or liable for any difficulties experienced by its clients during their trip. It is the client's responsibility to take out adequate travel insurance to cover any eventuality.
Liability
The liability of Travel Inspirator is restricted solely to the provision of detailed travel advice and itineraries. Even if Travel Inspirator undertakes the booking on behalf of the client, all contracts for travel (flights, accommodation, tours, car-rental etc) are made directly between the client and the selected supplier and are governed by any further terms and conditions issued by those providers. Clients accept the risks of travel and assume full responsibility for any loss, injury, death or damage to them, their family or dependents arising in connection to their trip. It is the client's responsibility to take out adequate travel insurance to cover any eventuality. Any claim or dispute will be subject to the Laws of England & Wales.
Insurance
Travel Inspirator strongly recommends all clients take out adequate travel insurance, both to cover them during their trip as well as for cancellations.
Cancellation and Amendments
No refunds are payable by Travel Inspirator if the client cancels or postpones their trip for whatever reason. Travel Inspirator cannot be held responsible or liable if third party suppliers, such as airlines, accommodation providers or tour operators, make any changes to their services causing losses to the client. However, Travel Inspirator will attempt to resolve any changes to the trip plans if required, subject to a service fee being agreed with the client.
Service Fees
Once the price quotation for carrying out the service is agreed, the client will be asked to pay at least 50% of this service fee upfront to Travel Inspirator. The remainder is paid on delivery. All service fees are non-refundable, even if the advice and recommendations provided are not accepted or booked.
Client Responsibility
Travel Inspirator is committed to making its clients' trips as rewarding as possible, and providing trip planning services quickly and efficiently. In order to do so, the client must provide all pertinent information, such as personal preferences and trip requirements, and respond to any follow-up questioning in a timely fashion.
Travel Documents
It is the clients' responsibility to ensure that they have a valid passport and meet all necessary entry requirements of the country or countries they are visiting. Travel Inspirator will do its best to inform clients of these requirements, but cannot be held responsible if these requirements change or the client does not contact the relevant embassy or consulate.
