The tour price is based on multi-bedded rooms (generally quads for domestic tours) unless specifically stated otherwise in the brochure.

By making payments for the associated Civil Rights History Journey and signing below, I understand, accept and acknowledge that I have engaged the CRSA and its partner(s) to work on my behalf. And as such, and because the tasks and work associated with making my related tour arrangements require payments (overhead) be made to company employees, general company related overhead, consultants, tour related suppliers (hotels, airlines, reservation fees, transportation costs, restaurant reservation fees, etc.) as well as other yet to be determined resources, I accept the stipulated refund policies as totally acceptable, fair and reasonable and I will offer no dispute(s), whatsoever, to the stipulated refund policies.

Cancellation by a tour participant due to concerns of terrorist activity will be considered as a subjective opinion of the tour participant and shall not be the basis of either a partial or full refund of monies paid, even if based on terrorist activity in the region of proposed travel. In the event a tour is scheduled to visit a country in which travel by U.S. citizens has been officially forbidden or outlawed by the United States government, for any reason, the CRSA reserves the right to alter or change the dates and/or itinerary to avoid such areas that are potentially dangerous, or for which the U.S. government has issued travel warnings of any level, or which has been officially forbidden for travel by U.S. citizens without incurring a liability for refunds. State Department advisories and/or warnings do not constitute or imply that travel to the countries mentioned has been officially forbidden or outlawed. Additional fees may be applied in the event the CRSA is instructed to make changes to the itinerary. In the event an institution elects not to offer a program or withdraws affiliation, for any reason, regardless of when that decision is made, the CRSA is not liable for refunds of fees, except as outlined in the cancellation and refund section of this application. Furthermore, if a student withdraws, is suspended or expelled from a school (with whom travel is scheduled) and either the school or the student requests that they not participate in the tour, refunds will be issued in accordance with the terms outlined in the cancellation and refund section of the tour conditions. Tour participation is non- transferable. Please Note: Optional Tour Cancellation Insurance and Cancel For Any Reason Insurance is available and could help you avoid costly forfeitures. It is the responsibility of the participant to request information about optional travel insurance/coverage.

TRANSPORTATION: Included in the tour price of each program, unless stated otherwise or not applicable, is airfare and/or other required ground transportation (city to city transport, some city sightseeing, inter-tour transportation, etc.). Based on past group size and/or information supplied by group leader / leaders, the CRSA may reserve a specific number of airline seats at the beginning of the tour offering. In the unforeseen event that the number of tour participants exceeds the number of seats reserved, the CRSA will request additional seats at the applicable group fare. However, in the unfortunate event that seats are not available, at the applicable group fare, the excess tour participants may be offered one of the following options: pay the difference in the airfare, receive a refund of all monies paid, or travel on a flight schedule different from the group’s. Even though the CRSA strives to supply flights with as few flight changes as possible, no guarantee is made that either non-stop or direct flights will be used. Additionally, because the CRSA does not control airline inventory or seating assignments, the CRSA will request, but cannot guarantee, specific seating for any individual or group. Flight deviations are considered on a per case basis (requests for persons not traveling with the group either one way or round trip) and may be allowed by requests in writing and when allowed, will incur additional fees and be subject to any increase in the airfare which may be charged by the airline. Other fees / charges may apply.

SIGHTSEEING: Most fees for items specified in the itinerary are included in the tour price. The CRSA may offer and if offered, make information available concerning optional excursions in which the tour participant may wish to participate during their free time. In order to gain the maximum benefit of your tour, some of the sightseeing may include walking.

GROUP SIZE: Most tour prices are based on a minimum of 15 paying tour participants traveling together. THE CRSA reserves the exclusive right to operate a program with ANY NUMBER of participants. Additionally, THE CRSA reserves the exclusive right to cancel a tour at its discretion. In the event a tour is canceled, the only responsibility of the CRSA is to adhere to the terms stated in the “Cancellation and Refund” section of the tour conditions.

HOTELS/MEALS: Hotel accommodations are based on multi-bedded rooms unless tour prices are based on specific guidelines as outlined on applicable tour brochure. Generally, the range is two, three, or four persons to a room. All hotels used will be good, middle class hotels and frequently the meals will be taken in the hotel. The CRSA reserves the right to request either individually, or on a group basis, a refundable hotel damage deposit. In the event a hotel deposit is requested, the CRSA will give the tour participant(s) as written notice much, as possible, of intent to collect a deposit. Damage deposits are usually no more than $100.00 per person, but may be more, and are fully refundable (pending hotel and bus inspections) following completion of the tour. In the event a damage deposit is required of tour participant(s), they will be given instructions as to the method of payment with written notice of intent. In the unforeseen event that due to male and female ratios being disproportionate for rooming purposes, and it becomes necessary for a single room to be utilized, the tour participant who will occupy the single room is responsible to pay a single supplement equal to approximately 25% of the total tour cost. Unless stated otherwise, most meals are included in each program. Occasionally a packed dinner/lunch will be provided as a main meal. Also, the participant will be given ample time and notice as to the meals which are deleted so that he/she will be able to plan accordingly. In the event a tour participant and/or entire group chooses to use a hotel, restaurant or any other services other than that selected by the CRSA, additional expenditures are at the sole expense of the participant or group.

NOT INCLUDED: Passport fees, port charges, any visas needed, drinks with meals, a la carte choice of menu, porterage, excess baggage, tourist cards, valet and room service, telephone calls, additional excursions, tour director and long-haul coach driver tips, governmental/ international airline taxes, credit card usage fees and any item not specifically mentioned in the itinerary is not included.

BAGGAGE: Baggage limits are controlled by the airlines and usually limit passengers to 1 medium sized piece of checked luggage and one “under seat baggage.” Strict fees are applied on too many or overweight bags and are the sole responsibility of the participant. It is the responsibility of the participant to check with their respective airline to understand the exact size and weight restrictions imposed by that airline. The CRSA allocates space for only one medium/large sized piece of luggage and one “under seat baggage.” In the event that group luggage exceeds the allocated space (either in weight or dimensions) on the provided group transportation and the CRSA must hire or charter additional transportation to carry luggage, any excess fees may be shared by all members of the group. Please adhere to these luggage limits.

CURFEW/RULES: All tour participants will conduct themselves in a mature and responsible manner. It is understood that after dark, or any time otherwise determined and advised by tour leadership, any participant (12th grade or younger) must be with an advisor for evening activities. Chaperones will enforce the CRSA 12 o’clock midnight curfew for any participants that have not been high school graduates for longer than a year. Curfew for adult and college level participants is to be determined and advised by their respective chaperone/teacher. Consumption of alcoholic beverages by minors is expressly forbidden as subject to the laws governing the United States of America. Additional specific rules regarding curfew and other rules of behavior and conduct may apply.

INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL DOCUMENTS: If traveling on a CRSA international journey, all US citizens will require a passport for travel outside of the country. Generally, passports must be valid for a minimum of 90 days after returning to the USA. Many countries require validity extending longer than 90 days. It is the responsibility of the participant to have a valid passport. It is the sole responsibility of the tour participant to be aware of pertinent guidelines of the countries they will be visiting. Most participants will be required to submit their passport number, expiration date and name AS APPEARS ON PASSPORT before departure. Any visa requirements for entrance into any country, or countries of a particular program as listed in the itinerary, is the sole responsibility of the tour participant. It is recommended that any necessary visa requirements be filed as early as possible prior to departure.

Also, teachers and chaperones are not to be considered professional tour directors nor are they to act as such, thus freeing them of the responsibilities and liabilities involved with handling tour arrangements. Schools, teachers and/or chaperones and any other involved organization are not to be held responsible or liable for any occurrence or action taken, whatsoever, in conjunction with a tour offering or with the implementation of a tour. Parents participating in the tour are not to be considered chaperones and have no duties or responsibilities in tour leadership.

INSURANCE AND MEDICAL CARE: Optional travel related insurance is recommended and available through the CRSA. Tour cancellation insurance and Cancel for Any Reason Travel Insurance is valuable and could help you avoid costly forfeitures. For additional information concerning optional insurance, please contact the CRSA. In the event that a tour participant becomes ill, loses important documents or for some other reason is unable to proceed with the group on the scheduled itinerary, it may be deemed necessary for another person (teacher, advisor or tour coordinator), for the purpose of assistance and security, to remain with the tour participant. If circumstances dictate that a person remain with the tour participant, then the tour participant must be prepared to pay any and all expenses (travel costs, meals, hotels, etc.) related to the incident for themselves and the person offering assistance. These expenses might include transportation costs to rejoin the group, meal costs, taxi fares and hotel costs. Naturally, when possible, every effort will be made to immediately notify parents and/or guardians.

The tour participant and if applicable, his parents or guardians, hereby waives and releases any claim or cause action against the CRSA, its officers, directors or partner(s) for any damages to or loss of property or injury to or death of the tour participant by any reason of any act of negligence whatsoever of any hotel, agency or person rendering any of the services and accommodations included in the tour, for any reason whatsoever beyond the control of the CRSA and its partner(s).
