GENERAL TERMS OF PARTICIPATION
It is the responsibility of all visitors based on the law that before registering for one of our organized trips you have carefully read the General Conditions of Participation, which constitute an integral part of the contract of the organized travel.
CHANGES TO TRIP DETAILS
halu! tries to strictly organized travel schedule by planning every detail much earlier. Nevertheless, there is the possibility of its modification due to the fact of using third parties as suppliers over whom it does not have direct control such as transport, tour guides and other tourism companies who may not meet their obligations. Therefore, despite its clear mediating role, the office makes every effort to respond to the needs of its Clients, but cannot be held responsible for problems that may appear and are not a responsibility of halu! such as:
a)For any changes or modifications that occur before and during the various stages of the journey coming from the services of the transport companies and agencies (delays, cancellations of routes, overbooking, loss of luggage, etc.),
b)Accidents, diseases or unpleasant organic effects from climatic conditions, inability to adapt to different time zones, altitude, epidemics, food poisoning or insufficient cleanliness.
c) Changes to any service or the entire program, due to "force majeure" (war or threat of war, acts of God, acts of terrorism, strikes, civil unrest, etc.
d) Damage, loss or theft of luggage, personal items, money or travel documents and of any consequence from a criminal or other criminal act.
e) In the excursions on which halu! operates as a reseller and not as an organizer, has no responsibility for any omissions that might occur, the fully responsible is the tour organizer company.
Before the excursion, halu! reserves the right to modify the excursion program and adjust its price. In this case, the traveler can cancel his participation and be refunded the money he has paid in advance, as long as the modification is essential, such as changing the day of departure or return. This right is not granted if the change in the program is not essential (e.g. change in the day of the planned tour, cancellation of one of the various tours, change of the time of departure from morning to noon or afternoon etc.).
During the execution of the excursion, the office attendant reserves the right to modify part or all of it, if he considers that this is in the interests of the excursionists and serves the best execution of the general program. All extraordinary expenses ( food, transport, etc.) arising from the modification of part or all of the program due to extraordinary events or force majeure events beyond the control of the Office are borne exclusively by the excursionists. The order of the tours can be changed without missing a beat. Possible change of the departure times of the means of transport from morning to noon or afternoon and vice versa or the time of boarding a road trip bus, is not considered a change of program. In the museums / shows that on public holidays will remain closed due to holidays, no guided tour or visit is included .
