It is both their intention and ours to ensure that you have as enjoyable and memorable a break as possible. If you have any problems during your event/activity please bring this to the attention of the operator’s management who will make every effort to achieve a satisfactory solution. If you do not receive a satisfactory solution to your problem, please write to us at the address below within 14 days of your return.
