These terms and conditions specifically refer to the products and services offered under the Well Traveller Exclusive Visa Offers (Program) which may be purchased on Our website and are in addition to the General Terms and Conditions above, however, clauses 5.1, 5.2, 7.1, 8.4.2, 8.4.4, 8.5, 9.4 and 9.6 of the General Terms and Conditions do not apply to arrangements made under this Program.
We sell vouchers for wellness travel experiences and products advertised and promoted as part of the Well Traveller Exclusive Visa Offers (“Program Experience” in the case of travel experiences and “Product” in the case of physical products). In our capacity offering these booking vouchers, we are not a common carrier, nor a private carrier, nor an agent of a third-party supplier of these Program Experiences and in this respect, we do not provide any of the travel, accommodation, activities described on this WT Website. Instead, we make arrangements to sell a Voucher which You may subsequently redeem (“Voucher”) with a third-party wellness travel supplier of services (“WTO”) or Product Supplier (“Product Supplier”). It is important You understand that You will also be subject to the terms and conditions of any WTO or Product Supplier supplying the Program Experience or Product You select in addition to the terms and conditions found on this WT Website.
When You purchase a Voucher and tick the box that says ‘I understand and accept the Terms and Conditions’, You become legally bound by these terms and conditions and our Privacy Policy. Please do not purchase a Voucher until You have read, understood and accepted these terms and conditions.
Within 14 days of purchase of a Voucher, You may request a refund if You change Your mind and have not yet redeemed the Voucher. A refund will apply to the cost of the Voucher but will not apply to any transaction or delivery fees. After 14 days, You should contact the WTO or Product Supplier relating to Your Voucher if You have any requests for refunds or exchanges. Please note that any such requests with the WTO or Product Supplier will be subject to the WTO/Product Supplier’s own refund and exchange policies and are not within our control.
If Your Program Experience is cancelled or is not able to be taken due to a Force Majeure Event (this term is defined below), We will offer You a choice of either:
For the purpose of this clause a “Force Majeure Event” includes (but not limited to) means any act, event or cause including COVID-19 or other pandemic, earthquakes, cyclones, floods, fires, lightening, storms or other acts of God, strikes or industrial disputes, riots, terrorist acts, civil disturbances, breakages of machinery, or industrial conditions, or arising out of any other unexpected and exceptional cause, delays in transportation and dispositions or orders of governmental authority which prevents a trip to commence, continue or be completed.
For any reason and at any time, we reserve the right to accept or reject Your Voucher purchasing order, including, but not limited to, the unavailability of any Program Experience or Product, an error in the price of the Product or Program Experience description, or an error in Your order. If we cancel Your order, we will provide a full refund of any payment received. Once placed, You cannot cancel Your order.
Vouchers shall be redeemable for a period of up to 2 years from date of customer purchase with a minimum 12-month validity (unless clearly stated in the specific terms and conditions for that product). This means You must use Your Voucher within 12 months, however, for a further 12-month period the WTO may elect whether to provide the Program Experience or supply of Product. During this further 12-month period the WTO or Product Supplier may require an additional charge if the price has subsequently increased.
All prices include 10% Australian Goods and Services Tax (GST)
Please provide accurate delivery details. This means including Your correct email address or physical address for post/courier delivery. It is Your responsibility to ensure these details are correct. We cannot be held responsible for any damaged, missing or delayed orders where incorrect or incomplete delivery details (address and, if relevant, appropriate delivery instructions) have been provided. Furthermore, we cannot be held liable for any loss suffered from third-party provider errors or delays including missed email delivery that occurs as a result of blocked email filters, firewalls or delays/missed deliveries from post or courier services.
If for any reason Your Voucher doesn’t arrive, please contact us immediately and We can arrange for the Voucher to be emailed to You free of charge.
We do our best to work with WTO’s whom we believe to be reliable, reputable, and who operate in accordance with the applicable standards, however, as we do not provide the services related to the Program Experience, You will be subject to the WTO own terms, conditions and limitations. It is important to understand some of these terms and conditions may exclude or limit liability in respect of death, injury, delay, loss or damage to You or Your property. Accordingly, as We do not provide the Program Experience and have no control over any aspect of their operations, We cannot accept responsibility for any Program Experience and we therefore do not offer any warranty. Given this, any legal recourse You may have in respect of a WTO’s Program Experience is against the relevant WTO and not against Us.
Please note that You will also be subject to the terms and conditions of the WTO in addition to these terms and conditions.
Any photographs and descriptions we use when depicting Program Experiences are provided to us by the relevant WTO and are used as an indication only.
The Australian Consumer Law provides You with statutory consumer guarantee rights to protect You. Subject always to Your rights under this legislation, We can make no warranties regarding the services provided by a WTO and cannot accept any liability for any loss or damage for any act, omission or default, whether negligent or otherwise of a WTO or third party. Where Our liability cannot be excluded, such liability is limited to the value of the Voucher purchased.
Some Program Experiences provided by WTO’s may be subject to certain restrictions. Where these apply, they will be listed on the Program Experience listing and in the email of Your booking confirmation. Please read this information carefully. It is Your responsibility to understand any restrictions prior to confirming Your booking. It is Your responsibility to adhere to any statutory or government-based requirements that are imposed. For example, You may not be able to undertake Your Program Experience if You are not able to demonstrate to the WTO’s satisfaction that You have complied with current government regulations (such as full COVID-19 vaccination or medical exemption).
