The following terms and conditions apply to any trip booked with Oh What A Trip (hereinafter referred to as “OWAT” “our” “us”). &nbsp;By booking a trip with OWAT you (hereinafter referred to as, “you” “your” or “traveler”) acknowledge that you (i) are 21 years of age or older, (ii) understand and accept these terms and conditions (the “Terms and Conditions”) and (iii) are entering into a contractual relationship with OWAT.
 
 
Price Policy
