Open Voucher Validation

MauritiusAttractions offers its customer the option to order an open voucher for a specific Activity, Attraction, Tour and Excursion. The open voucher can only be used for the specific Activity, Attraction, Tour or Excursion for which it has been purchased as detailed on the order confirmation and on the voucher itself. Please note that the Open Voucher is only valid for use for the relevant activity for which it was purchased and is valid for a period of 3 months from the day of its purchase. Meaning, the activity must begin during the 3 months validation period of the open voucher = must go on the activity within a maximum of 3 months from the date of its purchase.

In case the customer fails in using the open voucher during the period of 3 months, and fails to go on the Attraction, Activity, Tour or Excursion for which it has been purchased, the open voucher will no longer be of any use or value and it will be void. In case of a void open voucher the customer will not be entitled to receive any refund nor compensation against the payment made to purchase the voucher.

In case the customer still wishes to use the open voucher, but will not be able to within the valid 3-month period, they should inform MauritiusAttractions before the expiration date of the voucher and the voucher date may be extended for a 20% supplement (applicable on the amount paid). This is why we strongly encourage our customers not to wait for the last moment in order to use the open voucher.

Using an Open Voucher for Reserving an Activity.

In order for us to process your booking request and provide you with the activity on your preferred date, we strongly advise you to place your booking request at least 10 to 12 working days before the date on which you wish to take part in the activity. Please note that all bookings are subject to availability.

Late Reservation Requests with Open Vouchers. We strongly encourage our customers not to wait until the last moment to use the open voucher. If you request to book an activity, attraction, tour or excursion for a specific date less than 10 days before the desired date, Mauritius Attractions cannot guarantee that the booking will be confirmed or successfully completed.

If a client requests for a refund during the Open Voucher's 3-month validation period, a 20% fee of the total amount of the voucher will be applicable. In the event that the open voucher is not used within its 3-month period of validation, the customer will not be entitled to any refund or compensation in respect of the payment made to purchase that voucher. However, the voucher can be retrieved for a fee of 20% of the original amount paid.

Reserving the Activity on a specific preferred date

In order for us to process your order request in full and provide you with the activity you desire on your preferred specific date, we strongly advise that you will order the activity a minimum of 20 days prior to the date on which you would like to go/use the activity. All reservations are subjected to availability.

Mauritius Attractions’ agents do not provide medical advice. All Clients should consult their physician regarding their fitness for take part in particular tours/activities and such is under the direct responsibility of the client. Certain Tours/services may not be suitable for all clients due to restrictions posed by limitations in mobility, physical or cognitive disability, weight, pregnancy or various other physical or mental conditions. Mauritius Attractions encourages all clients to seek their physician’s advice regarding necessary or advisable vaccinations, medical precautions, or other medical concerns regarding the entirety of the clients’ travel with Mauritius Attractions. Additionally, it is the Clients’ responsibility to assess the risks and requirements of each Tour/service in light of such client’s limitations, physical and mental fitness and condition.

Complaints and problems.

In the unlikely event that you have any reason to complain or in case you experience any problems with your trip, activity or attraction, this must be brought to the attention of the relevant supplier immediately so that action can be taken to remedy the problem. Unfortunately some problems cannot be dealt with quickly.

Each client has a personal responsibility to take due care and attention by keeping close watch on his or her personal belongings and to refrain from bringing valuables to the activity. Mauritius Attractions shall accept no responsibility for the loss of, or damage to, personal property or valuables.

Customer’s behavior.

As a customer of Mauritius Attractions you are responsible for you and your party’s/group actions and you are expected to respect your environment and other people around you. All suppliers have every right to terminate, your stay or activity under threat of vandalism, violence or any other behavior deemed inappropriate by them. You must not behave in a way which may cause distress or annoyance to others or which may create the risk of danger or damage to property.

In case of damages or loss caused by you or any member of your group, you will be responsible and liable for full payment for these damages. In some activities, such as rafting, diving, etc, Mauritius Attractions or our suppliers will request the customer to fill in and sign a waiver.

• If any member of your party is prevented from travelling, that person may transfer their place to someone else. In case the order was made on the name of the person who is prevented from travelling, you must inform MauritiusAttractions as soon as possible about this change and provide a name of the other person who will use the activity (so we can change the order on his name).

• The Client has previously engaged in abusive, non-compliant, or otherwise harmful behavior toward the driver, the vehicle, or the company’s reputation;
• No suitable vehicle or driver is available at the requested time.

9.2 A refusal or cancellation under this clause shall apply solely to the transportation service and shall not affect any other confirmed activities or excursions booked with Mauritius Attractions. The Client remains fully bound by the terms and conditions of their original activity reservation, including applicable cancellation policies and payment obligations.

9.3 Where possible, Mauritius Attractions will provide the Client with a reason for refusal and offer reasonable alternatives. However, in urgent or high-risk cases (e.g., safety concerns or suspected fraud), no detailed justification is required.

10. Force Majeure

10.1 Mauritius Attractions and its transportation partners shall not be held liable for any delay, disruption, or failure to perform services resulting from events beyond their reasonable control. Such events may include, but are not limited to, natural disasters such as cyclones, floods, or earthquakes; acts of war, terrorism, or civil unrest; labor disputes including strikes or lockouts; road closures or traffic blockages; fuel shortages; mechanical failures; public health emergencies or pandemics; or compliance with any applicable laws, regulations, or governmental directives or restrictions.

10.2 Where a Force Majeure Event affects service delivery, Mauritius Attractions is relieved from its contractual obligations without incurring liability, penalties, or refund obligations - provided that the event genuinely prevented performance.

1.3 Clients will be notified of any such event as soon as reasonably practicable. Where feasible, Mauritius Attractions will offer an alternative solution, subject to availability.

11. Third-Party Disclaimer

11.1 Mauritius Attractions acts solely as an intermediary between the Client and third-party transportation providers. While we assist in facilitating the booking process, we do not own, operate, supervise, or manage any transport services directly. By booking, the Client acknowledges that the transport contract is between the Client and the third-party provider.

11.2 The transport service is provided by independent service providers under their own terms and conditions. Mauritius Attractions does not accept liability for any injury, loss, damage, delay, or inconvenience resulting from any act or omission of the Driver, including failure to perform the service as scheduled.

11.3 Transportation services are not medical or emergency transport services and may not be suitable for Clients with serious health issues or urgent needs. Clients with accessibility requirements (e.g., wheelchair access) must inform Mauritius Attractions in advance. Services are subject to availability and suitability of the vehicle.

11.4 Clients are advised to first address any issues with the driver at the time of occurrence. If satisfactory resolution is not possible, Mauritius Attractions may provide support as a neutral facilitator. However, this does not create a legal obligation or make Mauritius Attractions a party to the transport contract.

11.5 Clients acknowledge that transport providers operate under their own terms and conditions. By confirming a booking, the Client agrees to be bound by those terms, which may include separate rules regarding conduct, payment, liability, and cancellation.
