ACCOMMODATIONLeisure Options believes in using only 4 and 5 star luxury accommodation for its holidaymakers, including twin share accommodation on all cruises. This ensures the highest quality and comfort of your holiday. We can also arrange a single room if you prefer, however a single supplement applies.

PRE/POST TOUR ACCOMMODATION PACKAGEIf you need an additional night of accommodation before or after your holiday, we can arrange it for you from $495 per night. This includes staff support from 4.30 pm on the day prior/post travel through to your departure, dinner, bed and breakfast.

AIRFARESAirfares are NOT included in the advertised price of the holiday except where indicated. We encourage travellers to book holidays early so we can negotiate the best possible airfares on YOUR behalf. Leisure Options pays for carbon offset on all airfares to assist with greenhouse gas emission reduction.

DEPARTURESAll advertised Leisure Options holidays depart from Melbourne. However, we are able to arrange for you to join the holiday on route or have a Tour Leader travel with you from your departure point. There may be an additional cost for this service.

TRAVEL INSURANCETravel insurance is not included in the price of the holiday but we strongly recommend all travellers obtain insurance. Leisure Options staff will provide you with a quote and policy to suit each holiday. If you want insurance, you will need to complete the application before your holiday starts.

TOUR LEADERSThroughout your holiday, your Leisure Options Tour Leaders will play a really important role in making sure you have a great time, see all of the sights, and are safe and well looked after. Basically, they are there to make sure that you have the care and support you need so you can relax and enjoy your holiday!

All of our Tour Leaders have passed police checks, have current first aid certificates and have access to 24 hour nursing advice and support. Tour Leaders do not share rooms with travellers but will be available to you whenever you need them.

ACTIVE NIGHTIf you need checking or intervention during the night (for example, due to a medical condition such as epilepsy or a history of nocturnal wandering) you will require an Active Night staff person during your holiday.

Leisure Options can arrange for Active Night support as part of planning your holiday. We take great care in selecting Active Night staff with appropriate qualifications and client-care experience. As not all holidaymakers require Active Nights, these costs are not included in the advertised prices of the holidays.

LEISURE OPTIONS GUARANTEELeisure Options guarantee to run every advertised holiday that has at least one or more fully paid booking. This guarantee covers Leisure Options holidays all year round, helping to take the stress out of planning your next trip.

THE LEISURE OPTIONS STORYLeisure Options is an accredited tourism business that has been offering supported travel services for over 22 years to help realise the holiday dreams of travellers with disabilities. In that time we have grown from a small home based business to an award winning company offering over 80 holidays each year. Despite growing in scope and size Leisure Options remains a proud family owned and operated business that prides itself on offering premium, boutique holiday and travel experiences. Our focus is on making what is often perceived impossible, possible, by ensuring that our tours are inclusive, barrier free and most of all, fun.

The owners Gary and Cathy are both actively involved in the business and are passionate about providing accessible travel for all by removing the emotional and physical barriers to travel. Gary has 15 years of business acumen having owned and operated several businesses prior to Leisure Options as well working in senior management roles with ASX listed companies. He has completed a Certificate IV Disability, enjoys getting away on tour and thrives on steering the Leisure Options ship. Gary is heavily involved in the community holding down committee and coaching positions in football, cricket, surf lifesaving and fishing and has a real passion to ensure everyone has the opportunity to fulfil their goals and aspirations in all facets of life. Cathy is a Division 1 registered nurse with 30 year’s experience in multiple settings including aged care, critical care and community nursing. She has competed her Certificate IV Disability and loves being involved in all aspects of the traveller’s care. She is always available for advice and support and helps train the Leisure Options staff to provide exceptional levels of care and support.

Leisure Options understands that the introduction of the NDIS has caused some uncertainty about travel, holiday arrangements and funding but rest assured that Leisure Options has been approved as a registered disability service provider under the Disability Act 2006 providing services for persons with a disability for the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIA).

To reward our loyal and valuable travellers Leisure Options is giving every traveller a FREE branded backpack for any holiday booked for travel prior to September 2017. The backpacks are stylish, sturdy, useful and a great keepsake from your holiday. Don’t forget every traveller also receives a complimentary photo album posted to them at the completion of their tour. That’s two great keepsakes to help you remember your holiday.

Building long term relationships with our travellers and their families and/or carers is something Leisure Options strongly believes in and we go to great lengths to ensure that everyone who deals with us enjoys a memorable and seamless experience. With an 80% traveller retention rate we believe our exceptional service is the reason our travellers return year after year. We hope you enjoy our latest holiday brochure and we look forward to helping you make you holiday dreams come true in 2017/18.

All of our cruises make both anchor and port stops where there are options for on shore tours or to explore at your own leisure. Port stops are fully accessible, however it is important to note that anchor stops require travellers to board smaller tender boats which are used to transfer passengers to shore. Travellers with limited mobility and wheelchair users will not be able to disembark the ship at these anchor stops. Due to popularity and limited cabin availability, we recommend that you book your Leisure Options cruise holiday at least 6 months in advance.

Pacific charm is infused with a delightful French flavour on this cruise through bright blue waters and beautiful landscapes. This island hopping adventure features caves, corals and French cafés as we visit Paris in the Pacific.

Leisure Options is an authorized agent for Cover-More and can arrange your travel insurance, if you so elect.

LIABILITYTo the maximum extent permitted by law, Leisure Options excludes all liability for direct, indirect, consequential or incidental damages (including loss arising from negligence), loss of profits or savings or damages for disappointment. The liability of Leisure Options for breach of condition or warranty implied by law or otherwise, and which cannot be excluded, is limited to the extent possible, at the option of Leisure Options to the supply of the services again or the payment of having the services supplied again.

INTERNATIONAL TRAVELYou are responsible for your own visa, passport with at least six months’ validity, immigration, quarantine, customs, health and other requirements of the countries to be visited or transited. Leisure Options makes no representation as to the safety, condition or other issues that may arise at any destination. Travel advice is available from the Australian government at www.smartraveller.gov.au

HOLIDAY BROCHURELeisure Options makes every effort to ensure the accuracy of the information in its holiday brochure. Please note that the contents of the brochure is based upon information supplied to Leisure Options by third party suppliers and Leisure Options does not have and cannot be reasonably expected to have personal knowledge of all the facilities or services provided by every supplier. Leisure Options disclaims any and all liability to any party for loss or damage resulting from any errors contained in the brochure.

PHOTOGRAPHSPhotographs show places in the relevant geographic areas, but are not necessarily included in the holiday. Accommodation photographs are representative only, and the actual rooms occupied may vary in decor, inclusions or layout from those shown. Leisure Options may use any holiday photographs or videos in any promotional material unless requested in writing prior to the use by Leisure Options otherwise by yourself.

AGENCYLeisure Options put together holidays but third parties may provide transport, tour, events or accommodation. Leisure Options acts as an agent for those travel service providers. It is therefore important that you obtain and read the travel service providers terms and conditions applicable to your package. Also, make sure that you are aware of any exclusions or limitations of liability imposed by the travel service providers. Leisure Options has no liability for the products or services provided by these travel service providers, nor does Leisure Options make or give any warranty in respect of the standard of those products or services. All bookings of holiday packages are made subject to the terms and conditions, including conditions of carriage and limitations of liability imposed by those travel service providers. Your legal rights in connection with the provision of travel services are against the specific travel service provider and, except to the extent a problem is caused by fault on the part of Leisure Options, are not against Leisure Options. If for any reason any travel service provider is unable to provide the services for which you have contracted, your remedy lies against the travel service provider, not Leisure Options.

DISCLOSUREYou have disclosed to Leisure Options every matter that is relevant to your condition which might impact upon our ability to provide you with the appropriate level of care while on the holiday. Leisure Options cannot provide and cannot be held responsible for not providing the appropriate level of care where you fail to disclose every matter relevant to your condition.
