- Extra tours are organized by our local partner Viyatravel subject to a minimum participation of 20 people. If sufficient numbers are not achieved, tours may not take place, or extra tour prices, content, and vehicles used may vary according to the number of participants. Additionally, tour dates and times may be changed by the guide depending on whether museums and historical sites at the destinations are open or closed, and according to weather conditions.
- Extra tours are optional and depend on the participant’s preference. Passengers who do not wish to participate in extra tours organized during the trip are deemed to have agreed to wait at a suitable rest facility along the route. These passengers will be dropped off at the roadside rest facility before the extra tour begins and picked up again from that location after the main tour is completed.
- Check-in and boarding procedures for individuals participating in flight-based tours are personal matters and must be completed by the guest at airline counters at the airport before the flight or online via the airline’s website.
- Viyatravel is not responsible for flight failures resulting from guests failing to arrive at the designated airport at the times announced by Viyatravel, failing to complete check-in and boarding procedures on time, or completing them on time but failing to board the aircraft. All costs for new round-trip flight tickets and transfers required for passengers who miss their flights to join the tour are borne by the passengers themselves.
- Viyatravel acts as an intermediary between the passenger and the airline and is subject to the Hague Protocol of 28.09.1955. There may be risks of delays on scheduled and special flights, or flight times may change prior to the current tour and flight. Viyatravel is obligated to notify such changes as soon as possible. The passenger purchases the tour accepting the risk of time changes. Children aged 0-2 years are exempt from paying airport taxes and airport service fees.
