Contact General Manager René Suter I am a Swiss expatriate, founder, and manager of Finca El Maco and Chaska Tours. I have been working as a tour guide for many years, and through collaborating with partners from Germany, Switzerland, Austria, etc., I have realized how much Colombia enchants everyone who visits the country. It's a spell that captivated me 30 years ago and never let go. I fell in love with Colombia so much that I decided to stay here, establish my own company, and start a family. rene.suter@chaskatours.co Contact Deputy Managing Director Product Manager David Roa Martin Even as a child, I loved my grandmother's stories about life in an Andean village. My teacher Andrés Hurtado García awakened my enthusiasm for Colombia's diverse landscapes. This inspired me to study hotel management and tourism in Colombia to combine travel and work. Over the last ten years I have developed into a dedicated professional who values ethics and sustainability. Now my passion is to inspire others about the wonders of my country. david.roa@chaskatours.co Contact Operations Manager Claudia Ruíz Why Chaska Tours? Because we do what we enjoy, and when you're passionate about what you do, it shines through in everything you do! For me, tourism is not just work, but a calling. In addition to my job, I am proud to be Gaby's mother and I try to bring this love and devotion I have for my family into our guests' experiences at Chaska Tours. claudia.ruiz@chaskatours.co Contact Head of International Sales Michael Gold Ever since I was a child, I have been fascinated by getting to know the wide world. The exchange with other cultures was always the focus. That's why I turned my interest into my career. I studied tourism management in Germany and specialized in sustainable tourism. During my travels I found a country where I feel most at home: Colombia! The Colombian advertising slogan “The only risk is wanting to stay” has proven true for me. I have found my second home in San Agustín and from here I enjoy sharing the magic of the country with tourists from all over the world. michael.gold@chaskatours.co Contact Head of Logistics Zaira Ramirez What I appreciate most about Colombia is the endless facets of diversity. Our landscapes range from majestic mountains to breathtaking coastlines, and our Colombian cuisine is simply delicious. Outside of my professional commitments, I enjoy spending my time learning new things and pursuing my passions. I'm currently immersing myself in learning the Portuguese language, reading books in my free time and finding inspiration in music. As a photography enthusiast, I enjoy capturing the beauty of life in pictures to capture those precious moments forever. zaira.ramirez@chaskatours.co Contact Head of National Sales Christina Burbano Beyond my professional endeavors, I find joy and tranquility in the mountains of San Agustín, often immersing myself in the peaceful surroundings. Traveling throughout the country and practicing yoga are integral parts of my life outside of work. What captivates me most about Colombia is its remarkable diversity.

This land of charm and mystery, with an impressive cultural legacy, is ideal for enjoying its mountains, waterfalls, gastronomy, the friendliness of its people, and its history, which make it unique in the world. I feel fortunate to live in this place and to have the opportunity to share with people from different countries and cities of Colombia. yudi.maca@chaskatours.co Contact Operations Assistant Maria Rojas In my free time I find relaxation and joy in crocheting and designing creative projects. In addition, time with my family is particularly important to me in order to share valuable moments with each other. My favorite place in Colombia is Isnos. This region delights me with its breathtaking landscapes, impressive tourist sites and the fascinating archeology that can be discovered here. My personal favorite word in Spanish is “Efímero”. It beautifully describes something that is ephemeral or temporary and reminds us to appreciate the fleeting nature of life. maria.rojas@chaskatours.co Contact Sales Assistant Karen Lopez I was born in the Eastern Cordillera of the Andes, in the municipality of Pitalito, Huila – a place surrounded by mountains, greenery, life, and the unmistakable aroma of coffee.

- Terms and Conditions | Chaska Tours | Colombia | CO
Understand our terms and conditions. Our Terms and Conditions page clarifies legal agreements and conditions related to our services. Read to ensure you are well-informed. Terms & Conditions Terms & Conditions Last update: 10th of February 2025. Chaska Tours S.A.S. acts as an intermediary between users, entities, and/or individuals involved in providing air or land transportation services, accommodation, food, or any other service contracted through their travel agent and/or tourist service provider. Chaska Tours undertakes to provide the confirmed services, taking into account the exceptions specified in these terms, and is not responsible for the non-compliance of those entities with their obligations, as well as for contingencies resulting from strikes, weather conditions, delays, earthquakes, quarantines, as well as for personal or moral damages, losses suffered by passengers, damage or theft of luggage, or accidents, illnesses, and deaths. All users must claim directly from the service providers for the failed service, in which case Chaska Tours will serve as an intermediary. These "Terms and Conditions" are regulated in accordance with civil and commercial rules, as well as other applicable laws. DEPOSITS AND PAYMENTS Our prices are subject to change without prior notice, due to a change in the cost of any service or variations in the exchange rate. VAT does not apply to foreign clients who comply with the regulation for this exemption. To qualify for the exemption, passengers must declare a travel purpose of "travel and leisure" (leisure, vacation, tourism) when requested by the immigration officer at the airport or another border crossing they use to enter the country. The officer will stamp the passengers' passport with the PIP-5 seal. Different stamps or different travel purposes declared to the immigration officer may cause the exemption not to apply to the passenger. In that case, Chaska Tours and any other tourist service provider must charge VAT on the price paid by the passenger for each service. To confirm services, Chaska Tours requires a deposit of 30% of the total itinerary price. In certain circumstances (e.g., during peak season or when special services are contracted), which Chaska Tours will communicate to the client/traveler in advance, a higher deposit may be necessary. The availability and prices of the services quoted in the travel itinerary may change and will not be confirmed until the client/traveler accepts the itinerary and makes the deposit payment. The balance of the reservation must be paid 30 days before the start of the journey (or 45 days in high season), with the reservation considered canceled and the corresponding service charges applied if payment is not made within the established period. For bookings made within the 30 days before the start of the journey (or 45 days for high-season bookings), full payment is required to confirm services. The client/traveler assumes all bank costs related to the payment of the contracted services. VAT Exemption for Foreign Tourists Our prices are subject to change without prior notice due to variations in service costs or exchange rates. The published prices do not include VAT. VAT does not apply to tourism services contracted with operators such as Chaska Tours by foreign travelers and non-resident Colombians. To qualify for this exemption, travelers must declare a purpose of "leisure, vacation, or tourism" when entering Colombia, as requested by the immigration officer at the airport or any other entry point. If this requirement is met, their passport will be stamped with the PIP-5 seal. During hotel check-in and the first contact with Chaska Tours' representative for the start of the contracted services, travelers will be required to provide a copy or photograph of the personal information page of their passport, as well as the page with the valid PIP-5 stamp. If the traveler declares a different purpose of visit to the immigration officer or receives a stamp other than PIP-5, the VAT exemption will not apply. In this case, or if the traveler chooses not to provide copies of their passport, Chaska Tours and its service providers will be required to charge VAT on the cost of each service. Chaska Tours guarantees the responsible and secure handling of the passport information provided by travelers. The data will be stored on secure servers and used exclusively to demonstrate to tax authorities that the traveler qualifies for the VAT exemption. If the traveler is not a direct client of Chaska Tours but has booked services through a travel agency, it will be the responsibility of the agency to provide Chaska Tours with the necessary documentation to support the exemption. CHANGES All requests for modification or cancellation of services must be communicated in writing to the Chaska Tours representative who prepared the itinerary or sent via email to info@chaskatours.co . Name changes, travel date changes, or services requested by the passenger once the itinerary is confirmed will be handled individually by the Chaska Tours representative responsible for assisting the passenger. Chaska Tours will not charge additional fees for requested changes, except those charged by the hotel/airline or other company, as well as those that may arise from the difference between the originally contracted services and those intended to be modified. Chaska Tours will do its best to manage the requested changes but does not guarantee that they can be made. After the itinerary is fully paid and the reservation is confirmed, Chaska Tours will do everything possible to operate the itinerary as contracted. Services are requested and confirmed to be so. However, Chaska Tours works with independent providers such as airlines, hotels, and local transportation and activity operators, over which it has no direct control, so changes to the itinerary may occur. Chaska Tours will communicate any changes as soon as possible to the client/traveler and offer alternatives of similar or better quality, or a partial or full refund for the modified/canceled service. In cases of force majeure described below, no compensation will be paid, and the resulting costs will be borne by the client/traveler. CANCELLATIONS AND REFUNDS Cancellation expenses will be applied based on when the request is received from the client/traveler and the travel start date, as follows: If the client/traveler cancels the trip up to 45 days before the travel start date (60 days if the travel start date is in high season), Chaska Tours will charge a cancellation fee of 15% of the total contract value for administrative charges, if the contract does not have specific conditions indicating otherwise. If the contract is canceled between 44 and 21 days before the travel start date (between 59 and 31 days if the travel start date is in high season), Chaska Tours will charge a cancellation fee of 50% if the contract does not have conditions indicating otherwise. If the contract is canceled 20 days before the travel start date (or 30 days if the travel start date is in high season), or if the passenger fails to show up for the services ("No show"), no refund will be provided unless otherwise stated in the specific conditions of the agreed contract. In the event that a refund is applicable, bank fees will be borne by the client. NOTES ON FLIGHTS, LUGGAGE AND OTHER SPECIAL SERVICES Chaska Tours acts as an intermediary between the client and the airline for the purchase of air tickets when requested by the client. Once the tickets are reserved, confirmed, and paid for by the client, the change, cancellation, and/or refund policy that applies to these services is directly that of the airline with which the flights were booked and not the one detailed in the above section "CANCELLATIONS." The client/traveler is responsible for checking in for their flights at least 24 hours before the flight departure. Chaska Tours is not responsible for missed flights due to arriving late at the airport, flight overbooking (this is the airline's responsibility), or if the client/traveler has not checked in on time. The cancellation or changes to air tickets are not the responsibility of Chaska Tours, as well as any claims related to seat assignments, overbooking, labor strikes, changes in flight schedules, delays, cancellations, refund requests, or the insolvency or bankruptcy of an airline. Chaska Tours is responsible for the activities and excursions detailed in the final itinerary before the start of the journey. The excursions and activities that the client/traveler decides to purchase at any time from a local provider or a third party will not be part of their contract with Chaska Tours, and the client/traveler will enjoy them according to the terms and conditions of that third party. When the client/traveler contracts services through Chaska Tours with special change, cancellation, and/or refund policies (such as a minimum stay requirement or a cancellation penalty different from the one established in the section above "CANCELLATIONS"), the Chaska Tours representative will inform the client upon reservation and confirmation of the services about the special policies that apply and will proceed to confirm the services upon client authorization. In any case, the cancellation penalty for flights, hotels, or any other service that has been reserved and/or prepaid through us is subject to the cancellation policy of the hotel/airline or other contracted company. If these conditions stipulate a particular cancellation fee, it will be charged independently of the percentage that Chaska Tours will charge as the cancellation fee mentioned above for each case. Luggage The transportation services offered by Chaska Tours include a 23 kg suitcase plus a carry-on item per passenger, both of standard size: for the larger piece, the maximum dimensions are 158 cm linear (i.e., height + length + width) and for the carry-on, the maximum dimensions are 45 cm x 35 cm x 20 cm. This condition generally applies to air, land, sea, and river transportation services contracted with Chaska Tours, except for special and exceptional cases that may arise, such as some regional flights and transfers in small boats, jeeps, horses, among other necessary alternatives in some destinations. These cases will be timely communicated to the client. In the event that the client exceeds the amount of luggage included by Chaska Tours, they must inform the representative attending to them at Chaska Tours, as additional costs and logistical implications may arise, leading to changes in the itinerary. In any case, these costs must be borne by the client. SEASONS Low Season: Travel dates between February 16 and November 30, excluding Holy Week, July 1 to September 1, and local festival dates that may vary in each destination. High Season: January 1 to February 15, Holy Week, July 1 to August 31, and December 1 to December 31. For travel dates during high season, please consult us for prices and service availability before making the reservation. DOCUMENTATION All passengers must carry the necessary personal documentation during their journey. Chaska Tours assumes no responsibility for information, loss, or visa denial. PROTECTION OF PERSONAL DATA The client/traveler, freely, expressly, and unequivocally grants consent and agrees with the Personal Data Protection Policy described below, regulated by Law 1581 of 2012, and partially by Decree 1377 of 2013, to carry out personal data processing activities. This includes collection, storage, use, circulation, and/or deletion, for the fulfillment of the purposes of Chaska Tours' Personal Data Processing Policy. These are the terms and responsibilities that, as a tour operator, concern Chaska Tours regarding the processing of personal data (such as name, date and place of birth, nationality, gender, passport, phone numbers, email, banking information) necessary for maintaining the commercial relationship in actions such as operational services requested by the interested party and billing for these, as well as the completion of after-sales service. Purpose of data processing: The purpose of processing the collected data is related to the development of Chaska Tours' corporate purpose, so the personal data will be used exclusively to operate the tourist services requested by the interested party. This data will not be shared with third parties unless necessary to ensure the provision and billing of contracted tourist services. Chaska Tours will maintain confidentiality regarding the personal data to which it has had access under this contract (hiring and payment for tourist services), even after the contract ends. Chaska Tours may share your data with service providers for your trip and use it for security checks, satisfaction surveys, market studies, statistical analysis, and to send you communications about news, information, and/or offers. The data provided to Chaska Tours may be disclosed to public authorities, such as customs and immigration, credit or security companies, debit and credit card companies, and government and security agencies if required by these or the law. Rights of data owners: Data owners have the right, during the time Chaska Tours and/or its collaborators have them stored, to access, rectify, delete, and port their data. To exercise any of these rights, data owners can contact Mr. Rene Suter at info@chaskatours.co . The maximum term for processing the request will be fifteen (15) business days from the day following the date of receipt of this. If it is not possible to address the claim within this period, Chaska Tours will notify the interested party of the reasons for the delay and the date on which the claim will be addressed. The process cannot exceed eight (8) business days following the expiration of the first term. Data storage: The aforementioned personal data will be stored and protected by Chaska Tours' personnel and will be deleted after two years from the date of completion of the service. COMPLAINTS AND CLAIMS HANDLING Any complaint, claim, as well as changes or special requests from the client/traveler, can be submitted in writing to the Chaska Tours representative and/or to the email address info@chaskatours.co . ACCEPTANCE By applying to participate in any of the travel itineraries offered by Chaska Tours, the client and/or the traveler declares that they are aware of and approve all the terms of these "General Terms and Conditions," as well as the conditions described in the brochure, itinerary, or customized travel plan offered. We do not accept speculative, false, or fraudulent reservations. The client and/or the traveler acknowledges that they are of legal age to accept the legal and financial obligations that this document and the contract or travel itinerary imply. The client and/or the traveler agrees to all responsibilities resulting from the hiring of Chaska Tours' services, both for themselves and third parties. Chaska Tours, its collaborators, or service providers assume no responsibility for costs, injuries, damages, deaths, losses, accidents, or delays affecting any person or property resulting directly or indirectly from (i) acts or omissions of any person, provider, operator, or entity supplying any goods or services included in the itinerary, or (ii) force majeure factors such as thefts, labor disputes, mechanical breakdowns, quarantines, government regulations or measures, weather conditions, strikes, accidents, fires, floods, political unrest, wars, terrorism, pandemics, epidemics, wildlife interactions, criminal activities, force majeure, or other causes beyond our control. By making a reservation with us, the client/traveler waives any claims against Chaska Tours for such costs, damages, or inconveniences. If circumstances beyond Chaska Tours' control, as described above, require modifying or terminating the itinerary after departure but before its completion, the company will not be liable for any compensation or reimbursement for incurred expenses. Chaska Tours recommends that the client/traveler purchase adequate travel insurance. Although Chaska Tours will do everything possible to ensure the safety of the client/traveler, the trip is undertaken at the client/traveler's own risk, and the company accepts no responsibility or obligation for the passenger's safety or health conditions. Any medical condition that the client/traveler considers important must be notified to Chaska Tours before the start of the journey. Likewise, the client/traveler must be in good health and have the appropriate experience if engaging in outdoor activities and/or adventure sports.
