BREAKDOWNS/COMPLAINTS
If you have a problem or complaint regarding any aspect of your booking you should notify the ground handler and/or the supplier immediately in order that these issues (where possible) can be resolved without delay. You should also retain a record of your complaint and details of the person you reported it to. If you remain dissatisfied, you must write to us giving full details of your complaint within 30 days of the end of the booking period. We will only act upon complaints lodged by you with the ground handler/ supplier during the booking period. We regret we cannot accept liability in relation to any complaint, which is not brought to our attention entirely in accordance with this condition.

SUPPLIERS CONDITIONS
Suppliers (e.g. accomodation, guided trips etc.) will often have their own terms and condi­tions relating to the services booked by us on your behalf. Copies of these terms and conditions (where applicable) are available upon request and shall also be binding on you.

CONDUCT/MISBEHAVIOUR
We reserve the right to terminate without further notice the booking for any client/party member whose behaviour is likely, in our opinion, or that of the ground handler/supplier/client, to cause distress, damage, danger or annoyance to us, our suppliers, other clients, any 3rd party or property. Upon such termina­tion our responsibility to you and your booking ceases and we shall not be liable for any costs incurred by you or any member of your party.

ACCOMMODATION
The ground handler allocates all rooms or beds, not us. We have no control over which room or bed you will receive. You are responsible for your own safety and security of your belongings and as such you must take the necessary precautions.

ACTIVITIES
All capoeira activities carry with them a degree of danger and risk to both people and property, even if carried out under the supervision of qualified instructors. All clients must inform us in writing (at the time of booking) of any medical conditions, illnesses or allergies. Anybody with a heart condition, or is pregnant, or under the influence of any alcohol, drugs or medicine which may adversely affect their physical abilities must not and may not be allowed to participate in any of the activities under any circumstances. All partici­pants must agree to abide by all instruction and all decisions made by the instructors to ensure their safety. All of the activities are dependent on weather and other factors. If in the interest of safety the activities cannot be pursued we cannot be held responsible. Damage to any equipment must be reported to the ground handler/supplier immediately.

TRAVEL INSURANCE
All clients must be covered by adequate travel insurance valid for the full duration of the holiday. In addition, all clients participating in capoeira activities should have a travel insurance policy that covers each activity undertaken.

VACCINATIONS & HEALTH
You must ensure that you have complied with any health requirements, such as vaccinations, for any country you may be visiting. For further advices please consult the governmental Health Advice for Travelers booklet and if you have a medical condition of any kind please consult your GP.

PASSPORTS & VISAS

It is your responsibility to check with your embassy whether you need a visa to entre to Brazil. Usually you should hold a passport, with at least 6 months validity remaining, for entry into most countries. Visas are the responsibility of each person travelling but advice and assistance will be provided when requested.

DATA PROTECTION
We will use personal information relating to all persons named on the booking request form and any replacements to provide our services, and pass on that information to other suppliers (such as accomodation etc.). This includes personal dietary, religious or disability related details.

GENERAL
We may assign the booking or any part of it to any person, firm or company.  If any part of the conditions is found to be wholly or partly invalid, unenforceable or unreasonable by a court or similar body, that part shall be deleted and the rest shall continue in force. Delay or failure to enforce, or a prior waiver of any provision of these conditions shall not be construed as a waiver of that party’s rights under the booking. The parties to the Contract do not intend that any condition shall be enforceable under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 by any other person. The booking shall be governed by English law and the parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts.
