DEAR T R AV E L E R In 1904, National Geographic writer and photographer Harriet Chalmers Adams set off on an extraordinary expedition to reach the farthest corners of South America and discover its myriad wonders. While the three-year journey ignited Adams’ passion for the continent’s fascinating cultures and stunning landscapes, the trip was also full of misadventures. When crossing the Peruvian highlands, for instance, Adams found herself perilously perched atop her horse, traversing a winding route of stony ledges and swinging bridges no more than three feet wide.

National Geographic has since mastered the art of traveling across a continent, and our private jet expedition to Central and South America takes just 21 days. We set out on our journey from Washington, D.C., flying to Guatemala’s legendary Tikal—a UNESCO World Heritage site that boasts a wealth of ancient temples and pyramids. We’ll also travel by helicopter through the jungle to the Maya metropolis of El Mirador and explore this active dig site with an archaeologist.

Next, it’s on to Panama, where we’ll marvel at the engineering feats of the Panama Canal and experience the country’s rich biodiversity before heading south to Peru. Here, we’ll explore the city of Cusco and incomparable Machu Picchu; encounter the remote cultures of Lake Titicaca; or venture into the Amazon from our base at Inkaterra Hacienda Concepción, a National Geographic Unique Lodge of the World tucked beneath the rain forest canopy.

Next, we’ll experience the vibrant culture of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, before soaring to the southern tip of South America to discover the spectacular glacier-carved landscapes of Chilean Patagonia. Explore the dynamic Argentine capital of Buenos Aires, and marvel at Iguaçu Falls—one of nature’s most dramatic aquatic displays.

Finally, touch down in Colombia, exploring the colorful Caribbean port of Cartagena before flying to Miami.

The National Geographic experts at the helm of our expedition are natural storytellers who enhance your journey with their knowledge, personal experiences, and passion. In addition to the grantees we meet in the field, we will be joined by archaeologist and National Geographic grantee William Saturno, geographer and conservationist David Scott Silverberg, and acclaimed National Geographic photographer Nevada Wier.

From magnificent mountain ranges to the legacies of mighty civilizations, innumerable treasures await. We hope you’ll join us on board!

On our final day, head outside the city to the family-owned Estancia El Rosario de Areco, which spans some 200 acres. Glimpse the gaucho lifestyle during a horseback riding show, barbecue lunch, and polo demonstration.

Comprised of 275 cascades and spanning nearly two miles, Iguaçu Falls is one of the world’s most dramatic aquatic displays. The thundering white water is surrounded by the lush jungles of the Atlantic Forest—home to around 20,000 species of plants, as well as thousands of species of birds, mammals, reptiles, and amphibians. As you explore this natural wonder, keep an eye out for tapirs, giant anteaters, sloths, and howler monkeys.

We’ll view this majestic World Heritage site from unique angles along the nature paths that wind across our hotel grounds. Then choose from a variety of ways to experience the falls and the surrounding area. Embark on a thrilling Zodiac ride that goes behind the falls; join a naturalist guide to explore the Macuco jungle; encounter the powerful cascades of the famed Devil’s Throat; or visit the nearby Parque das Aves, home to nearly 150 distinct avian species.

Cross the Equator en route to Colombia, and land in the Caribbean port city of Cartagena. Surrounded by the most extensive fortifications in all of South America and brimming with stunning colonial architecture, this vibrant city was declared a World Heritage site in 1984. Ride a horse-drawn carriage through Cartagena’s cobbled colonial center, once an important gateway to South America, a target of buccaneers, and a refuge for explorers. On a walking tour, stroll atop the city walls and marvel at multihued buildings with flower-draped balconies and vibrant art installations. Peruse the Museum of Modern Art, and enjoy a private visit to the home of sculptor Eladio Gil Zambrana to discover rooms brimming with his work.

As an alternative to the walking tour, you may sample Colombia’s rich brews on a city coffee tour. Later, learn about the life and work of Colombian author and Nobel Laureate Gabriel García Márquez, or opt to savor the flavors of Cartagena during a culinary experience. This evening, gather for a farewell dinner in a private colonial-era home.

Please read the following information carefully. By registering for an “Expedition” (as defined herein), the participant (“Participant”) agrees to the Responsibility Statement and Operator-Participant Contract and Terms and Conditions below (the “Agreement”). In order to secure a reservation on the Expedition, the Participant must indicate his/her acceptance of the terms of the Agreement by signing the Knowing and Voluntary Execution of Responsibility Statement and Operator-Participant Contract and Terms and Conditions, and pay a deposit.

RESPONSIBILITY STATEMENT

National Geographic Expeditions (a division of National Geographic Partners, LLC and its subsidiary Global Adrenaline, LLC, located at 1880 Oak Avenue, Suite 100, Evanston, Illinois 60201) is the principal and is responsible for providing the Central and South America by Private Jet Expedition as outlined in its catalog and on its website (natgeoexpeditions.com) (“Expedition”). All transportation carriers, hotels, ground operators, and other suppliers of services connected with specific Expeditions (“Other Providers”) are not agents or employees of National Geographic Expeditions but are independent contractors over whom National Geographic Expeditions has no control. The Other Providers are solely responsible and liable for providing their respective services. The passenger tickets in use by the carriers will constitute the sole contract between the carriers and the Participant; the carriers are not responsible for any act, omission, or event during the time the Participant is not aboard their conveyances.

National Geographic Partners, LLC, its parent, subsidiaries (including Global Adrenaline, LLC), and their respective employees, affiliates, officers, directors, successors, representatives, and assigns (collectively “National Geographic”) will not be held liable for (A) unless negligent, any damage to, or loss of, property or injury to, or death of, persons occasioned directly or indirectly by an act or omission of any Other Provider, including but not limited to any defect in any aircraft, watercraft, or vehicle operated or provided by such Other Provider; (B) any loss or damage due to delay, cancellation, or disruption in any manner caused by the laws, regulations, acts or failures to act, demands, orders, or interpositions of any government or any subdivision or agent thereof, or by acts of God, strikes, fire, flood, war, rebellion, terrorism, insurrection, sickness, quarantine, epidemics, theft, or any other cause(s) beyond their control; and (C) any and all claims, actions, or losses for bodily injury, property damage, wrongful death, loss of services, lost profits, consequential, exemplary, indirect or punitive damages or otherwise which may arise out of or occur during the Participant’s travel in connection with the Expedition. The Participant waives any claim against National Geographic for any such loss, damage, injury, or death, including any right to seek consequential, punitive, or exemplary damages against National Geographic for any reason whatsoever, except as expressly provided for herein. National Geographic shall not be liable for any air carrier’s cancellation penalty incurred by the purchase of a nonrefundable ticket.

National Geographic Expeditions reserves the right in its sole discretion to accept, decline to accept, or remove the Participant on or from an Expedition if National Geographic Expeditions judges the Participant to be incapable of meeting the rigors and requirements of participating in the Expedition, or judges the Participant’s actions to be unsuitable for group travel. In recognition of the inherent risk of the travels and related activities in which the Participant is intending to engage, the Participant willingly and voluntarily assumes full responsibility for any injury, loss, or damage suffered by or caused by the Participant. National Geographic Expeditions reserves the right, without penalty, to make changes in the published Expedition itinerary whenever, in its judgment, conditions warrant or if it deems it necessary for the comfort, convenience, or safety of the participants.

National Geographic will not be liable for any air carrier’s cancellation penalty incurred by the purchase of a nonrefundable ticket to or from the Participant’s Expedition departure city. Baggage and personal effects are at all times the sole responsibility of the Participant.

The rates are based on tariffs, currency values, airfares, and third-party charges as of catalog publication date and are subject to change due to unforeseen circumstances. While National Geographic Expeditions will do everything possible to maintain the listed prices, if it is necessary to levy a surcharge, National Geographic Expeditions reserves the right to do so and will notify the Participant at the time of final invoicing.

Even if the Participant authorizes National Geographic Expeditions to put his/her name on a waiting list and collect his/her deposit, National Geographic Expeditions will notify the Participant within seven days if the Expedition is still fully booked.

SECURITY AGREEMENT: Participant’s payments are protected by a surety bond #015201478 issued by Liberty Mutual Insurance Company, 175 Berkeley Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02116 (the “Security Agreement”). Any claims against this Security Agreement must be filed with National Geographic Expeditions or Liberty Mutual Insurance Company within 60 days of the termination of the Expedition.

Suite rooms are available in some destinations; more information about them, including their extra costs, will be sent to the Participant in the months before departure.

ELIGIBILITY: Anyone under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian for the entire Expedition.

CANCELLATIONS AND REFUNDS: If the Participant cancels his/her reservation or changes his/her plans, the Participant’s right to receive a refund is limited, as described in the following schedule. All requests for refunds must be sent to National Geographic Expeditions in writing via mail, fax, or email. All cancellations will become effective as of the date of the postmark or email receipt.

If the Participant’s notice is received...

On or before February 4, 2019 From February 5 to June 9, 2019 From June 10 to August 8, 2019 From August 9 to October 7, 2019 On or after October 8, 2019

If the Participant cancels and provides a substitute participant for the Expedition, the Participant will receive from National Geographic Expeditions a full refund of money paid toward the price once the substitute participant has paid in full. Please note that the costs for visas, commercial air tickets, insurance, suite upgrades, and pre- or post-Expedition independent arrangements may not be refundable.

INSURANCE: National Geographic Expeditions strongly recommends trip-cancellation, health, and accident insurance, which is available at an additional cost. For more information about and to enroll in an option available through Travel Insurance Services, visit the “Travel Insurance” section of National Geographic Expeditions’ website at natgeoexpeditions.com. Insurance premium payments are subject to the policies of the insurance carrier.

ITINERARY CHANGES: The Expedition itinerary and staff presented in the catalog or on the website are subject to modification and change by National Geographic Expeditions. Every reasonable effort will be made to operate the Expedition as planned, but alterations may still occur after final itineraries are sent. In addition, should unforeseen world events and conditions require the Expedition itinerary to be altered, National Geographic Expeditions reserves the right to do so for the safety and best interest of the group. National Geographic Expeditions reserves the right to cancel any Expedition in the event inadequate enrollment makes the Expedition economically infeasible to operate, except as provided below. In such a case, National Geographic Expeditions will provide the Participant with a full refund of the monies paid to National Geographic Expeditions for the Expedition.

National Geographic Expeditions reserves the right to cancel a trip for any reason, provided National Geographic Expeditions notifies you in writing within seven days after the cancellation occurs, but no later than 10 days before the scheduled departure date. A full refund will be made within 14 days after such cancellation.

National Geographic Expeditions will not cancel an Expedition less than 10 days before departure, except for circumstances that make it physically impossible to perform the Expedition. If such a circumstance occurs, National Geographic Expeditions will notify you as soon as possible; and if the trip is canceled, National Geographic Expeditions will refund all monies within fourteen 14 days. If National Geographic Expeditions makes a pre-departure “Major Change” to a trip, you may cancel up to 24 hours before departure and receive a full refund within 14 days after cancellation. Only the following constitute “Major Changes:” (i) a change in the departure or return date unless the change results from a flight delay experienced by the air carrier, although a delay of longer than 48 hours will always be considered a “Major Change;” (ii) a change in the origin or destination city; or (iii) a price increase of more than 10 percent occurring 10 or more days before departure. If a “Major Change” occurs, National Geographic Expeditions will notify you within seven days after learning of the change but at least 10 days before the scheduled departure. If National Geographic Expeditions first knows of the “Major Change” less than 10 days before departure, National Geographic Expeditions will notify you as soon as possible. If a “Major Change” which you are unwilling to accept occurs after your initial outbound flight has been completed, National Geographic Expeditions will refund, within 14 days after your scheduled return day, that portion of your payment which applies to the service not provided.

NECESSARY DOCUMENTATION: Participants are responsible for obtaining any documents required for their participation in the Expedition such as a valid passport, all visas, vaccination certificates, and any other documents. To participate in the Expedition, visas and/or entry permits may be required for some countries.

Acquiring visas and/or entry permits is the responsibility of the Participant. Failure to obtain necessary documents does not negate the Terms and Conditions, and any extra costs incurred for rerouting a Participant due to travel without the necessary document will be the Participant’s responsibility. National Geographic Expeditions will provide information on the necessary visas and/or entry permits in pre-departure documents; provided that National Geographic Expeditions does so for informational purposes only. Participant must verify the travel documents required for his/her travel. National Geographic Expeditions is not liable for any damages resulting from Participant’s reliance on advice provided by National Geographic Expeditions regarding travel document requirements.

BAGGAGE: On the private jet, the Participant is limited to 90 pounds of checked baggage in two bags (one bag of the Participant’s choice limited to 50 pounds and one wheeled bag that National Geographic Expeditions will send to the Participant ahead of time for use on the Expedition limited to 40 pounds), plus a few smaller carry-on items like a backpack and/or camera. In certain countries, participants may fly on private light aircraft. Due to weight restrictions on these flights, the Participant will only be allowed one bag, provided to the Participant by National Geographic Expeditions, plus his/her carry-on luggage (including camera equipment). For international flights, the air carrier’s liability is limited to the actual value of the baggage but not more than 1,131 Special Drawing Rights, approximately $1,600 per participant, unless a higher value is declared at the time of check in and an appropriate excess valuation charge is paid. Baggage, when not handled by National Geographic Expeditions, and personal effects are at all times the sole responsibility of the Participant.

AIRCRAFT: The private jet flights will be performed using a Boeing 757 jet with 82 VIP-style seats. The air carrier for the Expedition will be Icelandair, Reykjavikurflugvöllur, IS-101 Reykjavik, Iceland. National Geographic Expeditions and the air carrier reserve the right to substitute equivalent aircraft or scheduled service, if necessary.

Participants who actually travel on scheduled service will receive only the protections applicable to such scheduled service. The Participant’s Expedition itinerary may include flights on smaller aircraft operated by local approved airline carriers. Seating on these aircraft will be economy or economy with limited business seats, based upon the configuration of the aircraft.

INTERNATIONAL FLIGHTS: The operation of these flights is subject to the foreign governments involved granting landing rights for the flight. If the air carrier cannot obtain these rights for any particular flight leg of the Expedition, that flight leg will be canceled and alternative arrangements may be made at the discretion of National Geographic Expeditions. Alternatively, Participant may cancel his/her reservation and receive a full refund if a flight leg is cancelled prior to first departure, or a refund of the unused itinerary if a flight leg is cancelled after first departure.

COMMERCIAL AIRFARE: National Geographic Expeditions may be able to assist the Participant in reserving commercial flights from his/her home city to Washington, D.C., and from Miami, Florida to his/her home city, in the class of service that the Participant prefers. Please ask for details.

HEALTH REQUIREMENTS: National Geographic Expeditions reasonably accommodates travelers with disabilities on all of its trips, but not all trips may be suitable for all travelers. For destinations outside the United States, any physical condition, diet, or treatment requiring special attention must be reported in writing when the reservation is made so that National Geographic Expeditions can determine whether or not reasonable accommodations are available, except as provided by Part 382 of the U.S. Department of Transportation’s rules, which are applicable only to flight legs arriving at, or departing from, a U.S. airport. Walking and climbing stairs are required in many hotels and airports to board the aircraft and for many excursions. Boarding assistance will be provided at all U.S. airports, the last foreign airport before arrival in the United States, and the first foreign airport after departure from the United States. If the Participant requires a slower pace, extra assistance, or the use of a cane or walking stick, and cannot participate in the Expedition at a reasonable pace, arrangements will be made for private touring at each destination, if necessary, at the discretion of our Expedition staff. Depending upon the nature of the arrangements, extra costs for such arrangements may be the responsibility of the Participant. If any Participant would like to forgo some of the scheduled sightseeing to rejuvenate and relax, he/ she may feel free to do so at any time. Please call National Geographic Expeditions for further details if you require reasonable accommodation to participate on this Expedition.

The Participant needs to obtain his/her physician’s approval to join this Expedition, and National Geographic Expeditions will send the Participant a form for his/her physician to sign. For the latest recommendations on specific health precautions for the areas visited, the Participant should consult his/her physician and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

MEDICAL AUTHORIZATION AND COVERAGE: In the event the Participant becomes sufficiently incapacitated as to be unable to direct his or her own care, there is no one on the Expedition who can direct Participant’s care, and National Geographic Expeditions is unable or does not have time to contact the Participant’s emergency contact, the Participant, by registering and paying a deposit for an Expedition, authorizes any medical treatment deemed necessary in the event of any injury or illness while participating in the activity including, but not limited to, X-ray, examination, anesthetic, medical or surgical diagnosis, or treatment and hospital care which is deemed advisable by, and is to be rendered under the general or specific supervision of, any physician and/or surgeon licensed in the United States, or, if in a foreign country and no physician licensed to practice in the United States is reasonably available, by a duly licensed physician deemed competent to render the necessary care. In addition, the Participant certifies that he/she has medical insurance which will cover personal accidents, medical expenses, medical evacuation, air ambulance, loss of effects, repatriation costs, and all other expenses which might arise as a result of loss, damage, injury, delay or inconvenience occurring to the Participant, or that in the absence of this medical insurance coverage, the Participant agrees to pay all costs of rescue and/or medical services as may be incurred on the Participant’s behalf.

PHOTOGRAPHY: National Geographic Expeditions reserves the right to take photographs or videos during the operation of any Expedition or part thereof and to use the resulting photography, videos, or recordings

for promotional or commercial use. By making a reservation on the Expedition, the Participant agrees to allow his/her likeness to be used by National Geographic and National Geographic–authorized third parties without compensation to the Participant. If the Participant prefers that his/her likeness not be used, he/she must notify National Geographic Expeditions in writing prior to departure of the Expedition.

Copyright of all photographs, video, and related materials created by the Participant (“Expedition Materials”) will belong to the Participant upon creation. The Participant grants to National Geographic a nonexclusive, worldwide, irrevocable license to use any Expedition Materials provided to National Geographic in any media for the following limited purposes: editorial use, promotion of this editorial use, promotion of National Geographic’s travel programs, or promotion of the mission of National Geographic.

ASSUMPTION OF RISK: By registering for an Expedition, the Participant acknowledges that he/she is aware that travel such as on the Expedition he/she is undertaking involves potentially dangerous activities, some in remote areas of the world, with a risk of illness, injury or death which may be caused by forces of nature, illness, or by willful or criminal conduct of third parties or by terrorism. The Participant further acknowledges that weather conditions may be severe, adverse and/or unpleasant, and that medical services or facilities may not be readily available or accessible or consistent with standards in the United States during some or all of the time during which he/she is participating on the Expedition and that when available may not be of the quality which exists in the United States.

ARBITRATION AGREEMENT: Arbitration Agreement policy and process is available at natgeoexpeditions.com/terms.

PRIVACY POLICY: National Geographic Expeditions’ privacy policy can be found at nationalgeographic.com/community/privacy/.

MAILING LIST: To update a mailing address, notify National Geographic Expeditions of duplicate catalogs, or to be removed from future National Geographic Expeditions mailings, please call toll-free 1-888-227-7265.

OTHER: The applicable Terms and Conditions may vary from those listed above based upon the specific Expedition selected by the participant. A copy of the final Terms and Conditions applicable to each Participant will be sent in pre-Expedition communications. If a court of competent jurisdiction or an arbitrator holds that any provision is invalid or unenforceable, such invalidity will not affect the validity or operation of any other provision and such invalid provision will be deemed to be severed from this Agreement.

COMPLETE TERMS: For the most complete and up-to-date Terms and Conditions, please see natgeoexpeditions.com/terms.
