Website Terms of Service
Last Updated: 6/15/2026
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern access to and use of the website located at [www.veganventures.com] (the “Site”), and any related content, booking tools, and services offered by Vegan Ventures LLC, an Oregon limited liability company with its principal place of business in Portland, Oregon (together with its owners, members, officers, employees, agents, contractors, and affiliates, “Vegan Ventures,” “we,” “us,” or “the Company”).
Please read these Terms carefully. By accessing or using the Site, browsing tour listings, creating an account, submitting information through any form, or registering for a Vegan Ventures tour, you (“User,” “Guest,” “you,” or “your”) agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated herein by reference. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not access or use the Site.
REMINDER: Vegan Ventures LLC is a company based in Portland, Oregon, in the United States. These Terms, and any tour booked through the Site, are governed by the laws of the State of Oregon as further described in Section 16 below.
1. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years of age to create an account, register for a tour, or enter into any transaction through the Site. Vegan Ventures tours are designed exclusively for adult travelers; the Site and its booking services are not directed to, and may not be used by, individuals under the age of 18.
By using the Site, you represent and warrant that you have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract with Vegan Ventures and that your use of the Site complies with all applicable laws in your jurisdiction.
2. Accounts and Registration Information
Certain features of the Site, including tour registration, may require you to create an account or submit personal information. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information and to promptly update such information as needed.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of any account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You agree to notify Vegan Ventures promptly of any unauthorized use of your account.
Vegan Ventures reserves the right to suspend or terminate any account, and to refuse Site access or tour registration to any person, at its sole discretion, including for suspected fraud, misuse of the Site, or violation of these Terms.
3. Description of Services
Vegan Ventures organizes and coordinates international group tours centered on plant-based travel experiences. Vegan Ventures acts as an organizer and coordinator of tour itineraries and arranges, but does not itself directly provide, transportation, lodging, meals, activities, and excursions, which are supplied by independent third-party vendors, including airlines, hotels, restaurants, ground transportation operators, local guides, sanctuaries, and activity operators. Vegan Ventures is not responsible for the acts, omissions, or default of any such independent third party, except as may otherwise be expressly stated in a tour-specific agreement.
Tour itineraries, photographs, descriptions, and pricing displayed on the Site are for general informational purposes and are subject to change. Vegan Ventures does not guarantee that any particular itinerary, activity, accommodation, or meal will be available as described at the time of booking, and reserves the right to substitute comparable arrangements where necessary.
4. Booking, Payment, and Cancellation
Tour registration is completed through the booking process described on the Site and is subject to availability and Vegan Ventures’ acceptance. A registration is not confirmed until Vegan Ventures has received the required non-refundable deposit, currently set at twenty-five percent (25%) of the total tour price (the “Deposit”).
THE DEPOSIT IS NON-REFUNDABLE UNDER ALL CIRCUMSTANCES, except where Vegan Ventures cancels the tour itself. The remaining balance (the “Final Payment”) is due in full by the date specified in your registration confirmation. Upon request and subject to Vegan Ventures’ approval, the Final Payment may instead be paid through an approved monthly installment plan; amounts paid under an installment plan remain subject to the same non-refundable cancellation schedule as a lump-sum payment.
Detailed cancellation timelines, refund eligibility, and related terms are set forth in the Release of Liability, Assumption of Risk, and Terms & Conditions Agreement (the “Tour Agreement”) that each Guest must separately review and sign prior to travel. In the event of any conflict between these Terms and the Tour Agreement with respect to a specific tour, the Tour Agreement shall control as to that tour.
All prices are listed in the currency specified on the Site and are subject to change without notice prior to a completed booking. Once a Deposit has been paid, the total tour price for that booking will not be increased by Vegan Ventures. You are responsible for any currency conversion, bank, or transaction fees imposed by your financial institution.
Vegan Ventures strongly recommends that all Guests purchase comprehensive travel insurance, including coverage for trip cancellation, trip interruption, emergency medical expenses, and medical evacuation.
5. Assumption of Risk and Release of Liability
International group travel involves inherent risks, including but not limited to risks of transportation, foreign infrastructure and conditions, outdoor and physical activities, illness or injury, food handling and allergens, civil unrest, and the acts of third parties, that cannot be eliminated regardless of the care taken by Vegan Ventures. By registering for a tour, you acknowledge these risks and agree to execute the Tour Agreement, under which you assume such risks and release Vegan Ventures from liability to the fullest extent permitted by law, except for liability arising from Vegan Ventures’ gross negligence, willful misconduct, or fraud. Tour registration is not complete, and a Guest may not travel, until a signed Tour Agreement has been received by Vegan Ventures.
6. Acceptable Use of the Site
You agree not to:
Use the Site for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable local, state, national, or international law or regulation;
Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Site, other users’ accounts, or Vegan Ventures’ systems or networks;
