RISK MANAGEMENT

On our adventure tours which include Mount Kinabalu Expedition, the location is in areas where it is less accessible and the events that may occur in such places are less predictable. There will be elements of uncertainty as we are visiting places where the political, cultural and geographical attributes present certain risks, dangers and physical challenges greater than those present in our daily lives. Perfect Holidays put every effort to ensure comfortable travelling of the Client, but the Company seeks mutual understanding that certain parts of the destinations will not have the same facilities, emergency, healthcare and safety services of the same quality level as what the Client may be accustomed to in their own country. Road travel may be uncomfortable or even unreliable at times. Client may possibly encounter power failure, insufficient water and limited food selection in remote areas. It is a fundamental condition that the Client acknowledges that all adventure tours require some flexibility and the most meticulously planned arrangement can go wrong. The day to day itinerary is an indication of what the group should accomplish, but not a contractual obligation. It is understood that the route, schedules, itineraries, amenities and mode of transport may be subject to alteration without prior notice due to local circumstances or events, which may include sickness or mechanical breakdown, flight or rail cancellations, strikes, events emanating from political disputes, entry or border difficulties, climate and other unpredictable or unforeseeable circumstances. Therefore, the Company will make the necessary changes in view of the safety and best interest of the Client. These amendments may be made with or without the consultation of the Client. Nonetheless, the Company will do everything within our control to minimize the effects of the enforced changes. The Company, however, cannot be held responsible for the results of these changes, regardless of how they were caused.
