Terms & Conditions

Here’s the liability, release and waiver, in human language

If you participate in a St. John’s Walking Tours walking tour, you are agreeing to the following:

  1. I am taking this tour voluntarily and am in good health.
  2. I understand there are risks to walking in public.
  3. I accept personal responsibility for anything that happens to me, like if I get hurt or lose something.
  4. I release St. John’s Walking Tours and anyone working for it, including contractors, from any claims or liability for damages.
  5. If something bad happens to me during the tour, it’s not St. John’s Walking Tours’ fault.
  6. If part of this waiver is deemed to be invalid or unenforceable, it doesn’t mean the whole thing is.
  7. If I agreed to it, St. John’s Walking Tours can take photos and video during the walking tour and can use my image, likeness, recordings of me in any format to promote their tours or any other way they like without having to pay me anything for it, ever.
  8. If I get hurt or need medical attention, St. John’s Walking Tours can arrange it, but it’s not their duty to do so.

Here’s the liability, release and waiver in legalese. You should read it.

Voluntary Participation. I understand and confirm that my participation in a St. John’s Walking Tours walking tour is voluntary. I am in good health and suffer from no physical or mental condition that would make me susceptible to injury or disability while participating in the tour.

Understanding Risks. I am aware of the risks, dangers and hazards involved in my participation in a St. John’s Walking Tours walking tour. I understand that the St. John’s Walking Tours walking tours take place in public venues under conditions largely beyond the control of St. John’s Walking Tours walk leaders and the Company. Potential risks may include, but are not limited to, uneven walking surfaces, potholes, raised path edges, wet or slippery ground, steps, curbs, low lighting, narrow walkways, traffic movement, road crossings, diversions due to construction or exposure to weather conditions.

Assuming Risks. I assume all risks involved in participation in a walking tour provided by St. John’s Walking Tours. I accept personal responsibility for any liability, injury, loss, or damage in any way connected with my participation in a St. John’s Walking Tours walking tour.

Release of Liability. I release, waive, discharge and covenant not to sue St. John’s Walking Tours, its principals, affiliated entities, parent companies, subsidiaries, present and former employees, owners, officers, members, managers, partners, contractors, insurers, shareholders, and directors (collectively “Released Entities”) from any and all claims, actions, damages, liabilities, losses, costs, and expenses for death, injury, loss or damage of property, in any way arising out of my participation in a St. John’s Walking Tours walking tour, including, without limitation, any and all claims resulting from the negligence of the Released Entities.

Indemnity Agreement. I indemnify and hold harmless the Released Entities from any loss, liability, damage or cost that they may incur for losses and damages which may be brought against me or against any of them by anyone claiming to be injured (including death) or whose property is damaged as a result of my actions arising from or during a St. John’s Walking Tours walking tour.

If any portion of this Waiver is held to be invalid it is agreed that the balance of the Agreement will remain valid and enforceable.

Promotion Release. I agree to grant to St. John’s Walking Tours a royalty-free license to use my photographic, video, or digital likeness, in whole or in part, taken during a tour, solely for promotional, educational, and/or St. John’s Walking Tours purposes.

Consent to Medical Treatment. I authorize St. John’s Walking Tours to provide me with customary medical assistance, transportation, and emergency medical services as the result of injury or health condition. This consent does not impose a duty upon St. John’s Walking Tours to provide such assistance, transportation, or services. I have the right to refuse medical assistance and understand St. John’s Walking Tours will provide assistance if I am incapacitated.
