4.1 Tickets cannot be refunded after purchase unless the experience is cancelled or rescheduled accommodated to a different experience. An accommodation change is a change which, in the attraction’s reasonable opinion, would make the experience materially different to the experience that the purchasers of the ticket could reasonably expect and would include a change to the originally purchased experience.
4.2 Where certain experiences require a minimum attendance number, which has not been achieved, visitors may be rescheduled to another time. The attraction team will endeavour to contact customers in advance of their ticketed time; however, this may not be possible and suitable arrangements will be made on arrival.
4.3 Refunds shall only be made to the person who purchased the tickets and, where possible, by the same method used to purchase the tickets. When it is not possible to refund via the same payment method the attraction reserves the right to request additional identification or documentation to ensure the money is returned to the correct person.

4.6 In the case of a postponed/rescheduled experience customers will be offered alternative tickets of the same value for the new date/time, subject to availability. Where it is not possible to offer tickets of the same value then alternative tickets may be offered. Should the customer not wish to accept these tickets then a refund can be obtained for the face value of the tickets and any associated booking fees. To claim a refund the tickets must be returned to the attraction prior to the rescheduled date. The attraction cannot be held responsible for tickets which have been lost in transit, so customers are recommended to use a secure form of delivery, the cost of which is non-refundable.
4.7 In rare and unforeseen circumstances, the attraction may be required to revoke customer’s tickets and offer alternative tickets for the same experience of the equivalent value. If this is not possible, alternative tickets may be offered and any difference in value credited or debited to the customer as applicable and with their consent. If the attraction cannot offer tickets of the equivalent value, then the customer can claim a refund of the face value of the tickets and any associated booking fees.
4.8 The attraction reserves the right to cancel tickets which they reasonably suspect to have been booked fraudulently, which exceed any advertised limits on the quantity that a person/household can buy, or which they suspect to have been resold, or attempted to be resold, for financial gain. Any applicable restrictions on the quantity of tickets that can be purchased will be made clear at the time of booking.
4.9 At the attraction’s discretion, a waiting list may be kept for sold out events to assist customers who can no longer attend. The attraction may charge an administration fee for facilitating the transfer of tickets from one customer to another.
