GOLFSelect Scotland Escorted Tour—2022 Terms and Conditions (continued) UNUSED TOUR SERVICES Tour services included in the tour packages, which are not used, are non-refundable. No refund will be made for un- used hotel accommodations, tee times or any other service due to flight delays, illness or any kind or unscheduled changes or for any other reason. TOUR DOCUMENTS Tour documents will be sent to you approximately 3 weeks prior to your departure date with all relevant documenta- tion therein. HANDICAP CARD OR CERTIFICATE GOLFSelect stipulates that all clients must carry with them a current handicap or a general letter of introduction from their home club. Failure to do so may result in access being denied at a number of the clubs. This can be provided to GOLFSelect ahead of the tour. CADDIES/PULL BUGGIES/MOTORISED CARTS We have included a forecaddie per group in a number of rounds as outlined in the itinerary. Pull buggies are included for all rounds. We have found, with experience, that a forecaddie provides invaluable information on where to hit (and where not to) as well as assisting with reading putts. Motorised carts are generally not available due to the tradi- tional designs of these golf courses. If you do have a current medical certificate, then please let us know and we will enquire on your behalf. If you require a dedicated caddy for you this can also be arranged ahead of time. Please advise us on booking if they are required. Caddy fees are to be paid by the client directly to the caddy or caddy master on the day of play and are not the responsibility of GOLFSelect. Please note that caddies are not directly employed by the respective golf clubs and it is the caddie’s responsibility to arrive at the allotted time and as such no responsibility is accepted by GOLFSelect. Gratuities are not included in the caddy or forecaddie fees and are to be paid separately by each indi- vidual golfer. MEET AND GREET Our starting point for the tour will be the Novotel Edinburgh Park—a 7 minute drive from Edinburgh Airport. BAGGAGE The airline baggage allowance varies per airline carrier. Please refer to the airline website you are flying with for clarifi- cation on luggage restrictions. TRAVEL INSURANCE GOLFSelect strongly recommends Travel Insurance. On booking your golfing vacation, please ask for details of our pre- ferred partner insurance company that we will be happy to recommend to you. Please remember it is your responsibility to have adequate travel insurance in place should you need to cancel the trip for any reason. GOLFSelect is not liable for loss, damage or theft of luggage or personal belongings, or for personal injury, accident or illness that may prevent travelling.
