The Chance2explore.com website is owned and operated by Chance to Explore.com ("Chancetoexplore.com", “chance2explore.com”, “Channels”, “our”, "we", "us") however not all of the products or services we provide are supplied by us, therefore the contract for the product and/or service will be between you and that third party.
- Please take time to read these terms of service it is important for both of us that you understand the service relationship relating to your use of the website. We will not allow you to purchase any products or services from any of the Channels unless you have confirmed that you have read these terms.
- These Terms of Service are limited to the currently active business services and functionalities but not exclusive off services or functionalities that are under development.
- Except for the sale of a very small number of products (such as, for advertising space) the Chance2explore.com website operates as an agency model. This means that we act as a disclosed agent for third party suppliers, such as tour operators, travel agencies, spas, event organizers or restaurants etc. What this means is that the contract for the product or service is between you and the supplier. In most cases this will mean that there are additional Terms of Service governing the contract, as each supplier will have their own Terms of Service relating to that product or service. Please make sure that you have read these Terms of Service before completing your transaction with us. In specific instances where we act as an agent this will mean that we have no contractual liability to you in respect of that product. However, we may still be liable to you if we have been negligent; we have misrepresented important information or have been in breach of any other relevant law.
- All products or services sold through Chance2explore.com are not an offer by Chancetoexplore.com to sell any product or service, but an invitation to you to make an offer to our suppliers. We are free to accept that offer on behalf of those suppliers or to reject it. We will send you an e-mail confirming the sale.
- Because the contract for the product is between you and the supplier any queries or concerns relating to the product should be addressed to them directly. You will see the name and address, plus contact details, for most suppliers at the bottom of the product information section for each product or service and for all suppliers in any confirmatory e-mail we send you.
- Where your contract is not with Chancetoexplore.com but with a third party supplier such as a tour operator, spa, event promoter, or restaurant, Chancetoexplore.com may pass your credit card details (or details of any other payment method allowed) and any other essential booking details to that third party. The placing of an order for any goods and services by you will constitute consent to us passing on such details.
- You undertake to us that the details you give to us while using the Chance2explore.com website are correct in particular that the credit or debit card you are using is your own and that there are sufficient funds to cover the cost of the product or service.
- If there are any changes to the details supplied to us by you it is your responsibility to inform Chancetoexplore.com via our web form or by contacting our Customer Services as soon as possible.
- If there are any changes to the details supplied to us by you during the period between purchasing a product or service through Chance2explore.com and partaking in the product or service of a supplier it is your responsibility to inform the supplier of the changes as soon as possible.
- We will not send you e-mails which you do not want but we can not guarantee that third parties suppliers to whom your details are sent will not do so.
- Our website will not stop you from making impossible bookings such as two tickets to the same place at the same time or a voucher to one place and theatre tickets to another at the same time. If you make that kind of booking we will not give you a refund.
- We will do our best to correct errors and omissions as quickly as practicable after being notified of them. However because of the sophisticated technology that is required in operating Chance2explore.com there may be occasional times when obvious errors occur. For example, very occasionally, this may result in a price, product or service or other detail displayed or presented on the Chancetoexplore.com website being incorrect. In this case we reserve the right to cancel that contract, but this of course will be without any liability to you.
- Chancetoexplore.com does not make any warranty that the website is free from infection by viruses or anything else that has contaminating or destructive properties, although we endeavor to install and protect the website with the latest and strongest antivirus protection that is available to us.

- In most cases for the distribution and download of Vouchers, Chancetoexplore.com is acting as a disclosed agent for a third party supplier. You will usually be able to find the name and address of the relevant supplier on the product information sections relating to each product, and in all cases in your confirmation e-mail.
- The Voucher will contain the terms and condition of the supplier where possible unless the size of the text is prohibitive. Ultimately any decision on cancellation and returns etc will belong to the supplier.
- In addition to the above, however, we have agreed with our suppliers to offer you a returns policy for specific Vouchers. Please note a description of which products are eligible for this returns policy are included in the product information section relating to each voucher.
- The returns policy is as follows:
In specific instances we may be able to arrange a full refund of the full price you paid (including outward delivery charges) if you contact our Customer Services explaining that you wish to cancel the contract with notice greater than 10 days from your receiving the receipt for the product or service. Please make sure that you inform us of the order number, product description, reason for return and whether you require a replacement or refund.
- Our 10 day returns policy applies only to certain Vouchers where it is possible to inform the supplier in time for them to make those products available for sale. It will not apply to those vouchers which, are free for your use or “bespoke” (that is, they are made to order). In addition and for the avoidance of doubt our 10 day returns policy does not apply to vouchers freely available for download through the site.
- Please ensure you take any downloaded pdf voucher to the suppliers location with you, failure to produce the voucher will result in you not receiving the discounted prices offered.
- Any voucher freely downloaded through the site does not obligate any supplier to the supply of the product or service except at their discretion; within their booking timeframe and with communicated notification from the customer. You will need to inform the supplier that you will be bringing the voucher with you, and when you will be arriving. Presenting the voucher unannounced and without notification does not necessarily obligate the vendor to its us.
- Please note that just because our 10 day returns policy does not apply to all products or services does not necessarily mean that for all other products or services there is not a returns policy. Remember for each product there are separate supplier "Terms and Conditions” governing that contract which may contain a returns or cancelations policy.
