IMPORTANT NOTES

Our tour program is arranged with a minimum participation requirement of 10 people. If sufficient participation is not achieved for the trip, the final cancellation notice date is 20 days before the tour departure. A tour canceled due to insufficient participation will be notified to you through your agency.

In cases where there is not enough participation but the tour is carried out, English guidance may be provided.

3-person rooms can be provided depending on hotel availability, and in such rooms the bed assigned to the 3rd person is smaller than standard beds. 3-person rooms consist of 1 large bed + 1 extra bed. Since extra beds are pull-out beds and coach beds, participants making 3rd person and/or child reservations are deemed to have accepted the possible cramped space in the rooms and the bed type. Child discounts apply only to a single child in the relevant age group staying with 2 adults.

The breakfasts included among the services in the tour program are served in accordance with the breakfast culture of the country visited and generally with a limited menu called continental breakfast, consisting of butter, jam, bread, tea or coffee, and may be served in a separate hall assigned to the group for groups.

Some tours may be conducted by public transport or on foot where possible, at closed roads or points where vehicle entry is not permitted.
