Terms and Conditions

Please read these details carefully and call us if you need further information or explanation. These terms do not affect you statutory rights.

Our Experiences

Golden Moments contracts with independent suppliers who make the experiences featured in our literature available to our customers subject to their own terms and conditions. Where possible these terms are detailed in the Golden Moments information pack or with the confirmation of booking. Descriptions and itineraries may vary between locations. Please check before booking.

Experience Descriptions

The description of each experience contained in our online brochure and in the Golden Moments pack is at times abbreviated and is correct at time of print. However, we reserve the right to make reasonable changes to the programme without notice. Where an alteration is material we will notify the recipient at the time their booking is confirmed or by subsequent communication. Similarly, where specific vehicles or celebrities are detailed we make every attempt to provide those. However, in the event of mechanical breakdown, illness or circumstances beyond our control, we reserve the right to make reasonable substitutions without notice. All prices are for one person unless explicitly stated (i.e. for two in the product name).

Locations

Our call centre can provide the latest details on locations for each experience. We reserve the right to add or withdraw locations at any time. Where locations are stated as 'UK Wide' please note that in certain areas like Scotland and Northern Ireland, venues can be limited. Each venue has its own terms and condition (available upon request) and participation is conditional upon acceptance of these.

Mechanical Breakdown, Illness & Circumstances Beyond Our Control

Where specific vehicles, individuals or other experience components are featured, we reserve the right to make reasonable substitutions on the day. In the event of mechanical breakdown or illness or, if this is not possible, to cancel the event at short notice.

The Weather

Many of our experiences featured are weather dependent and we will advise you if you need to call the centre to check the weather before participating. If the experience is cancelled because of the weather, a rebooking or alternative of similar value will be offered but remains subject to these conditions.

Session Length

Where the session length is mentioned in our literature, or in the Golden Moments pack, this is an approximate time given as a guide only. Unless specifically stated otherwise, you will take your turn with other members of the public and there may be waiting time involved.

Expiry

The expiry date for ‘open dated’ vouchers is detailed on the voucher in your Golden Moments pack. If the recipient is unable to participate in the experience before that date the voucher may be extended for a further 9 months, provided we are notified during the 28 days prior to the expiry date. A £23.49 administration fee is chargeable, plus any price increase of the experience, which may include reissue of a new Golden Moments voucher. Extended vouchers are non-refundable. If you voucher has expired it may be possible to re-activate and extend it for a fee of £32.49 plus any price increase in the experience.

Exchanges

All open-dated experiences can be exchanged once only for any other experience in our brochure provided we are notified before the expiry date. If the substituted experience is higher in price than the amount originally paid, you will need to pay the extra. If the substituted is lower in price than the amount originally paid, the balance will be held on account to be put towards another experience. Exchanged vouchers are non-refundable.

Vouchers

For security reasons, any voucher issued without a participant name will need to be returned to us before the voucher can be booked or exchanged. Golden Moments cannot be held responsible for lost or missing vouchers.

Safety Standards

Safety is the most important factor in our business. We carry out health & safety evaluations on all suppliers, including obtaining references from regulatory bodies. However as booking agent we cannot be held liable for injury or loss caused beyond our control.

Date bookings/reservations

Unless a specific date is requested at purchase, vouchers are open-dated until the expiry date shown on the voucher. Once a date booking has been made the product cannot be exchanged or refunded. Full confirmation will be sent to confirm your booking. We ask you to read this document carefully and contact us on receipt if any changes need to be made. If confirmation does not arrive within 14 days you must contact us. In the event of a recipient not attending a booking it is classed as a non-show used voucher.

Refunds are always made to the person who purchased the pack, and if originally paid by credit card the monies will be refunded to the same card.

We are committed to ensure that our disabled customers are given every opportunity to participate in our experiences and, in order to allow this to happen, we ask that the existence of any disability be stated in our order form.

GoldenMoments.net Limited will be happy to provide information about disabled access for its experiences on request.
