Terms of use
As of October 2026
What this is about
These terms apply to the use of the website whale-watching-hermanus.com. Whale Watching Hermanus is an independent guide to whale watching in Hermanus. We do not sell trips or tours ourselves.
Who sells your tour
If you book a tour through one of our links, you enter into the contract on the GetYourGuide website with GetYourGuide or with the respective tour operator. Their terms and conditions apply. They are responsible for the tour, payments, rebookings, and cancellations, not we.
Prices and availability
Prices on this website are starting prices and are for orientation only. If you convert them into another currency, we use reference rates from the European Central Bank; the result is an approximate value. Only the price and availability shown by GetYourGuide before booking are binding.
Whales and weather
Whales are wild animals. Whether and where they appear depends on their migration and the weather, and no one can force a sighting. Whether a tour offers a refund if no whales are seen is determined solely by the terms of the respective offer. Our information on season, species, routes, and climate is based on the sources we cite on each page. It does not replace the operator's current notices, for example regarding wave height, departure times or the wind on the bay.
Commissions
Links to tours are affiliate links. If you book through such a link, we receive a commission from GetYourGuide. You incur no additional costs as a result.
Links to other websites
We link to third-party sources and offers. The respective operators are solely responsible for their content.
Copyright
Texts and graphics on this website are copyrighted. You may read, print, and share them for private purposes by linking to the page. Any other use requires our consent. Tour photos belong to the respective providers; map data: © OpenStreetMap contributors.
Liability
We are liable without limit for intent and gross negligence as well as for damages arising from injury to life, body, or health. Otherwise, we are liable only for breach of essential obligations and limited to typically foreseeable damage. Use of this website is free of charge.
Applicable law and changes
German law applies. If you are a consumer with ordinary residence in another state, the mandatory protection provisions of your home country remain unaffected. We may amend these terms; the version published at the time of your visit to the website applies.
