Booking Conditions
As a booking facilitator, saddletravel.com does not create or organise the travel packages on offer. Instead, we connect customers with third-party operators who independently organise all aspects of the travel packages, including accommodations, horse riding activities, and transport. Our role is limited to facilitating the booking only.
Payment & Cancellation Terms
Holidays are confirmed with a 20% non-refundable deposit. The full balance is due 56 days before the start date. If you cancel your booking less than 56 days before the start date of your trail we are entitled to receive full payment, less refunds as follows: 42 days or more before booking date – 50%
30 days or more – 30%
less than 30 days – nil
Insurance
All customers are required to take out appropriate travel insurance that covers horse riding and holiday cancellation. Proof of insurance details will be required during the booking process.
