Children under 10 years old must wear a lifejacket, which will be provided by Punting on the Lake, for the duration of the tour.
The punts are not suitable for wheelchair access due to the steps that must be negotiated on the landing. Punting on the Lake staff will happily assist passengers with limited mobility to board and disembark, but are not permitted to lift passengers in or out of the punt.
Smoking is not permitted on the landing or in the punts.

Passenger Behaviour

Customers must obey any reasonable request from any Punting on the Lake staff member.
Punting on the Lake reserves the right to refuse entry to a passenger onto the punt and to require a passenger to disembark the punt at our discretion. This includes passengers who behave in any way that interrupts the enjoyment of the experience for other people.
Well-behaved dogs are welcome on private punt tours.

Late arrivals, cancellations and “no-shows”

If you arrive at the Punting on the Lake landing later than the specified check-in time for your tour, your tour duration may be shortened or you may forfeit your tour at the discretion of Punting on the Lake. In this case no full or partial refund will be given, regardless of the circumstances.
If you need to cancel your tour, please do so at least one day in advance:

If you cancel with at least one day’s notice: Your tour will be rescheduled to another convenient time or you will be given a gift voucher to the value of the tour you have paid for.
Same day cancellation: No rescheduling, gift voucher or refund will be provided for same-day cancellations.
Any changes to an existing booking should be made by phoning Punting on the Lake on 0481 455 410 during our business hours (published on our website).

“No-shows”: If you don’t turn up, you forfeit your tour. Tickets will not be refunded or exchanged for gift vouchers, and may not be used for a tour on a different date or time.

If Punting on the Lake has to cancel a tour due to inclement weather or any other conditions or reason, you will be given a refund or gift voucher for the value of the tour you have paid for.
