1. (a) "Tourist" includes all persons traveling under this contract and their heirs and representatives. "Tourist" shall include the plural and the use of the masculine shall include the feminine.

(b) "Company" means Stowe Away Tours, Inc., a Virginia Corporation, and its respective employees, agents, affiliates, successors and assigns. Notice and/or service of process may be made upon Company in care of Company’s registered agent, Larry L. Stowe, P.O. Box 5563, Williamsburg, VA 23188.

(d) "Transport" means the railcars, buses and other modes of transportation or accommodation provided by Company in connection with the Tour.

2. (a) In no event shall Tourist bring on the Tour any controlled substances, live animals, weapons, firearms, explosives or other similar property without written permission from Company. Company reserves the right to refuse to permit any Tourist to take on the Tour any item Company deems inappropriate.

(b) The Company is neither responsible nor liable for any loss of or damage to Tourist’s property, including jewelry, cash, or negotiable paper. Liability for loss of or damage to Tourist’s property in connection with any air or ground transportation shall be the sole responsibility of the provider of the service and in accordance with applicable limitations.

3. No undertaking or warranty shall be given or shall be implied as to the fitness or condition of any lodging, transports, activities, food or drink that may be part of the Tour.

4. All arrangements made for or by Tourist for air transportation, ground transportation, excursions, hotels, restaurants and other similar activities or services are made solely for Tourist’s convenience and are at Tourist’s risk. The providers of such services are independent contractors and are not acting as agents or representatives of Company. In no event shall Company be liable for any accident or harm to Tourist as a result of any acts, omissions or negligence of any independent contractors. The Tourist is advised not to make any travel arrangements more than 120 days prior to departure, unless instructed to do so by the Company. The Company is not responsible for any fees or inconveniences incurred by the Tourist if the final itinerary requires changes in the Tourist's travel arrangements.

5. Company may for any reason beyond its control (e.g., acts of terrorism, labor disputes, natural disasters, etc.), at any time and without prior notice, cancel, advance, postpone or deviate from any scheduled Tour or activity, or substitute another activity, and shall not be liable for any loss whatsoever to Tourist by reason of such cancellation, advancement, postponement, substitution or deviation. Company reserves the right to substitute English speaking escorts in place of Larry and Carolyn Stowe, if for reasons of personal illness or injury, they are unable to escort the tour. If substitutes cannot be found, Company reserves the right to cancel that tour. Nothing contained herein creates a personal services contract to be performed solely by Larry and Carolyn Stowe. If the Company is forced to cancel, the Tourist may transfer the value of his TOUR to any other Company tour within twelve months following the originally scheduled tour, space permitting. Or the Tourist may elect to receive a refund from the Company of what has been paid. The amount of the refund depends upon the date of cancellation. If the Company is forced to cancel a tour more than 120 days prior to the scheduled departure date, the "adjusted full amount paid" will be refunded. The "adjusted full amount paid - AFAP" includes the deposit and any final payment received by the time of cancellation, less a group travel insurance premium of $150 per person and the golfer's supplement of $600 (these two fees are also refundable if they have not been paid to the service providers at the time of cancellation). Within 120 - 61 days of departure, the refund is 80% of the AFAP; within 60 - 42 days of departure, 70% of the AFAP ; within 41-31 days, 65% of the AFAP; within 30 - 15 days, 30% of the AFAP; and less than 15 days, 20% of the AFAP. This refund schedule is dictated by our contract with the Scottish golf, hotel and motor coach service providers.
