| Accommodations |
We have found through our
own extensive travels that large resorts and chain hotels
often isolate travelers from locals at their destination.
We believe in giving our participants a richer experience
by immersing them in the local culture and economy, instead
of merely exposing them to more tours.All participants on
Flores Adventure ’ trips stay in small hotels, guesthouses,
inns and in some cases beach bungalows. These will vary from
island to island, but in all cases the accommodation will
usually be owned and operated by local people. This way, your
money will be supporting the local people of the island you
are visiting and not large corporations. |
| |
| Food |
On our trips, you will receive
daily breakfast and refreshments en route. For lunches and
dinners, you will be advised by our tour guides of recommended
restaurants owned and operated by locals. In many cases, water
will be provided for free, however, in some areas drinking
it wouldn’t be a good idea. Our guides will always be
on hand to tell you when and where water is safe to drink.
We highly recommend bringing a water bottle with an in-line
filter system.Although you will have the opportunity to order
food which is like that you normally eat at home, we recommend
trying all the local specialties. After all, food is a major
part of any vacation or trip, as well as a major part of any
country’s culture and you just may discover a few new
favorites. |
| |
| Tour Guides |
Our guides know all the
ins and outs of the destination in question. They are also
knowledgeable about spots not on the map or sites well off
the beaten tourist trail. Our guides are savvy people with
their own particular specialties that vary from guide to guide
and island to island. |
| |
| Transportation |
Due to the lack of public
transportation access to tourist attractions, we have included
private transportation for the group. The size of transportation
will depend on the number of participants in a trip. All groups
will be transported in a non air-conditioned coach. |
| |
| Payment |
To avoid hassle prior to
departure from your source country, deposit or payment transfer
and full payment are required. The due date and account number
will be sent to you at the time we sent you that trip confirmation.
Payment can be made in IDR, Euro, Australian Dollar, Singapore
Dollar or Yen based on the official exchange rate at the time
of transaction. |
| |
| Cancellation & Refunds |
| No cancellation fee will be applied on land costs
if the cancellation is made less than 7 days prior to departure
date. But 25% cancellation fee will be applied within the 7
days prior departure or in case of no show. |
| |
| Travel Insurrance |
Flores Adventure Tours highly
recommends that you purchase travel insurance. You are entirely
responsible for arranging travel insurance on your own, prior
to trip departure. Flores Adventure Tours accepts no liability
for travelers who do not carry traveler’s insurance. |
| |
| Medical Information |
Participation in Flores
Adventure Tours require that you are in good health. It is
essential that persons with any medical problems or dietary
restrictions make them known to us well before departure.
We can then counsel you on whether the adventure trip you
have selected is right for you. Our tour escort has the right
to disqualify any participant at any time during the trip
if he or she feels the participant is physically incapable
and/or if a participant’s continued participation will
jeopardize either the individual involved or the group. There
will be no refund give under these circumstances. Flores Adventure
is not a medical facility and therefore has no expertise nor
responsibility regarding what medications or inoculations
you and your private physician should decide necessary for
your safe participation in the trip. Hospital facilities for
serious medical problems are unavailable in Komodo and Flores
island and evacuation will be prolonged, difficult and expensive.
Flores Adventure assumes no liability regarding the provision
of medical care. |

| Single Travelers |
All land costs are based
on twin or double occupancy. If you are a single traveler
and wish to share accommodations, we will match you with a
roommate if one is available, or room you with the guide.
If you prefer single accommodations, you must pay the single
supplement. Single arrangements are not always available in
wilderness locations. |
