Welcome to Sumatra Trekkers! These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of our website and the eco-guided safari tours and affiliated activities ("Services") we offer in the Sumatran jungle. By accessing or using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

1. Services Offered

Sumatra Trekkers provides eco-guided safari tours in the Sumatran jungle, including trekking, wildlife viewing, and other affiliated activities as detailed on our website.

2. User Conduct

You agree to use our website and Services only for lawful purposes and in a manner that does not infringe the rights of, restrict, or inhibit anyone else's use and enjoyment of the website. Prohibited behavior includes harassing or causing distress or inconvenience to any person, transmitting obscene or offensive content, or disrupting the normal flow of dialogue within our website.

3. Intellectual Property

All content on this website, including text, graphics, logos, images, and software, is the property of Poke the Box Studios or its content suppliers and is protected by international copyright laws. No content may be submitted by users.

4. Booking and Payment Terms

By booking a tour with Sumatra Trekkers (brand and website operated and managed by Poke the Box Studios), you agree to the following payment and cancellation terms:

  • Cancellation Policy:
    • Cancel ≥ 2 weeks before trekking: Full deposit refund, minus any transaction fees incurred.
    • Cancel ≥ 1 week before trekking:
      • If fully paid: Full refund minus a 10% administration fee and any transaction fees incurred.

    • Cancel < 24 hours before trekking: No refund.

  • Adjustments and Changes: Should you need to adjust your activities or change your arrival date, please reach out to us right away. While our dedicated local teams (guides, drivers, and activity partners) are pre-booked to ensure your seamless experience, we will always do our very best to accommodate your requests.

  • Please note that adjusting confirmed arrangements may occasionally involve a nominal re-booking fee, as our teams commit their time exclusively to your trek. In cases of very last-minute changes (less than 20 days prior to arrival) or external travel disruptions like flight delays, any associated fees incurred to our teams would be the guest's responsibility. Our aim is always to find the best possible solution for you, ensuring your Sumatra adventure remains an incredible one!
