We keep the information on this site (prices, dates, group sizes, what is included) as accurate and current as we can. Experiences evolve, and details can change between the moment a page is published and the day of the event.
The information that binds us is the information displayed on the experience page at the moment you complete your reservation, together with the terms in force on that day. If you spot something that looks wrong, tell us at romain@worldxpat.com and we will correct it.
