Booking and Cancellation Terms – Baba Husky Oy

1.  Booking and Payment

  • A booking is considered confirmed once full payment or a deposit has been received according to the offer.
  • If the payment is not received within the specified time, Baba Husky reserves the right to cancel the booking.
  • All our tours are operated in small groups and prepared individually – especially the dogs and equipment – so timely notice is essential.

2. Cancellations by the Customer

  • Cancellations made more than 24 hours before the scheduled starting time are fully refundable, minus any transaction or payment processing fees (e.g. credit card or booking platform costs).
  • Cancellations made less than 24 hours before the scheduled starting time are non-refundable (100% charge applies).
  • No-shows (customers not arriving at the agreed meeting point or missing the pick-up time) are fully charged (100%).
  • Late arrivals to the pick-up point or starting location are also treated as no-shows, as the safari and dogs must depart on time for operational and welfare reasons.
  • Changes to the booking (date, number of participants, etc.) must be made in writing and confirmed by Baba Husky. In some cases, changes may be treated as cancellations followed by a new booking.

3. Cancellations or Changes by Baba Husky

  • Baba Husky reserves the right to cancel or modify a service if necessary for safety reasons, due to severe weather, trail conditions, or other unforeseen circumstances (force majeure).
  • In such cases, customers will receive either a full refund or the option to reschedule to another available date.
  • Minor adjustments to the route, duration, or timing of the safari may occur for operational or safety reasons and do not entitle the customer to a refund.

4. Unused Services and Late Arrivals

  • No refunds are made for unused portions of a tour or service (e.g. late arrival or early departure).
  • If guests are not ready at the agreed meeting point and time, the program may depart without them to maintain the schedule for other participants.
  • Transportation and safari logistics are carefully coordinated, and delays affect the wellbeing of our dogs and the timing of all tours.

5. Illness or Unexpected Events

  • In case of documented illness or emergency, Baba Husky may consider a partial refund or rescheduling at its discretion. A valid medical certificate or other supporting document may be required.
  • Force majeure situations (e.g. extreme weather, government restrictions, road closures) are handled flexibly — customers can choose a new date or receive a refund minus transaction costs.

6. How to Cancel

  • All cancellations or changes must be made in writing (by e-mail).
  • Cancellations are valid only after receiving a written confirmation from Baba Husky.
  • We do not accept cancellations via phone, text message, or social media unless confirmed in writing.

7. Refunds

  • Refunds are processed using the same payment method as the original booking.
  • Please allow 7–14 business days for processing (depending on the payment provider).
  • Transaction or platform fees are non-refundable.

8. Applicable Law and Disputes

  • These terms are governed by Finnish law.
  • In the event of any dispute, both parties will aim for an amicable settlement. If necessary, the case will be handled by the district court of Rovaniemi, Finland
