I have read and fully understand the information contained in the trip itinerary and other written material issued by Travel-Myanmar.net for the expedition I have applied to join, and I am competent and willing to cope with the situations, circumstances and conditions made clear in the printed material. I recognize and agree that the realities made clear in the written information reflect the intrinsic characteristics of adventure travel and not least the matters of flexibility, adaptability, reasonableness, practical personal contribution to lifestyle en route and the fact that not all situations, circumstances and conditions subsequently encountered are identical to those pre-existing and prevailing at the time of booking.

I recognize that the areas where I will be travelling are extremely remote and undeveloped. Many of the areas are completely inaccessible except by foot or by company raft. As a result of this, immediate contact with proper evacuation and emergency services may not be available for several days in a worse case scenario, despite all expeditions carrying satellite communication.

I also recognize that I am undertaking a journey that may contain a significant element of personal risk, and that risk does sometime become a reality. I acknowledge the relative remoteness, the rough travelling and weather conditions, and the limited and relatively primitive medical and other services available, as well as the greater potential dangers compared with my usual daily life, or conventional holiday travel. I acknowledge Ayeyarwaddy Expeditions’ responsibility to me and I accept the authority and decisions of Ayeyarwaddy Expeditions and its representatives in respect of the journey that I have applied to join.
