Common use of Single Guests Clause in Contracts

Single Guests. Single-room accommodations are subject to a single-room surcharge, which guarantees a private room without a roommate (where available). See individual Trip pages on our website for pricing details. In order to keep our single-room surcharges as low as possible, on occasion single rooms may be smaller than double- occupancy rooms. Single-room accommodations are not available on all Trips. Additionally, we cannot always guarantee single accommodations, even after reservations and confirmations have been made. For Guests who wish to avoid the single-room surcharge, we are happy to attempt a roommate match. We will do our best to find a same-sex roommate; however, if we cannot arrange a match, NHA may charge 50% of the single-room surcharge. Please consult specific Trip pages on our website for details. This amount will be charged approximately 60 days prior to departure. On all Custom-Designed Trips, 100% of the single- room surcharge will always apply, as there is no opportunity to arrange a roommate match. Please note the following policy for Guests who request a roommate match for the Trip: If a Guest who requested a roommate match for the Trip books any scheduled Extension(s) or pre- or post-Trip hotel night(s), the Guest will be responsible for the single-room surcharge for the additional service(s). If, however, the Guest’s matched roommate for the Trip books any of the same additional service(s), the matched Guests will be paired together in a double-occupancy room, at the double-occupancy rate, for all applicable scheduled Extension(s) and pre- or post-Trip hotel night(s). Family Travel & Age Requirements NHA welcomes families on certain Trips and offers select Family Trip Departures. On certain Trips and most Family Trip Departures, children 6 years and older are welcome. However, while many 6-year-olds are well suited for some or all of our Family Trip Departures, some may not be ready for the expectations of group travel. For this reason, we recommend considering this age minimum as a guideline, rather than a hard and fast rule. We strongly encourage Guests to call our office to speak with an Adventure Specialist about the specific requirements of the Trip they are considering so they can make an informed decision about their child’s participation. Due to safety regulations, physical limitations and concerns regarding group dynamics, we do not allow children younger than 6 on our Trips. Additionally, some Trips, or specific activities within a Trip, have higher minimum age requirements. Please contact us to confirm the age requirements for a specific Trip. On all Trips, the parents or legal guardians of children under age 18 must sign the Minor Permission Waiver portion of the Agreement requiring guardians to ensure that children in their care do not place themselves, other Guests, staff or wildlife in harm’s way, or jeopardize the enjoyment of the Trip for the group as a whole. Cell Phones & Other Electronics NHA’s Trips are designed to provide our Guests with immersive nature experiences. With this goal in mind, we try our very best to minimize the use of electronic devices on our Trips. We respectfully ask that Guests not use mobile phones or tablets/computers in the presence of other Guests, unless such use is an integral component of the Trip, as when a phone is used as a camera, or on special photography departures where Guests may come together to edit photos on computers in the evenings. This policy is especially applicable in secluded or enclosed areas, during presentations, or at mealtimes when we are often recapping our day, preparing for the next day, or sharing stories of our nature encounters. Please note that our Expedition Leaders often need to use cell phones or other communication devices in order to ensure a smooth and safe Trip experience, but even they attempt to keep use at a minimum in our Guests’ presence. Camera Use NHA understands and supports our Guests’ desire to capture memories of their Trip in photos. However, NHA requires that all Guests maintain respect for fellow Guests, staff and wildlife while operating cameras, and that Guests use cameras in a safe and appropriate manner at all times. NHA also aims to provide fair and balanced photography opportunities for all Guests. Guests must follow all rules set forth by the Expedition Leader(s) and/or Local Guide(s) to ensure a safe experience and to ensure that all Guests have similar opportunities and advantages, as much as feasible, for photography. Though NHA discourages the use of “selfie sticks,” they must be used in a manner that is respectful and conscientious of other Guests, staff and wildlife. Please note that in certain destinations, “selfie sticks” may be prohibited by local authorities. Drones Drones are not permitted on any NHA Trip.
