PORTAL ACCURACY:

The information given in the Portal is as accurate as we can make it. Our descriptions are of amenities normally available. However, circumstances can change due to any events beyond our control. Major road works/blocks may necessitate route changes. Any of this may cause us to make changes in the itineraries. Wherever we may know of these sufficiently in advance we will notify you, otherwise our Tour Director or Local representative will inform you of such changes on the spot. Please note that brochure is prepared several months in advance. There are also very big fairs/ exhibitions/matches Lasting upto 2 weeks, when all the hotels are fully booked several years ahead. Every effort is made to avoid such dates, but in the few instances where it is unavoidable, it may be necessary to stay in Hotels in other cities.

MEALS:

We reserve the right to change the meal arrangement if circumstances make it necessary to do so; the meals are preset and a choice of menu is not available.

HOTELS:

On your tour you will be provided rooms with private bath and shower in your hotel. The hotel will either be those shown in the brochure or of a similar category. Some of our hotels are centrally located in cities, but in common with the other tour operations, we have found that to provide you with comfortable hotels at a reasonable price, it is often necessary to use hotels away from the city centre.

REFUND:

No refund for any unutilized services (Eg. Meals, Entry Fees, Optional Tours, Hotels etc.) The company is not responsible if the passenger is not allowed to board the flight in spite of confirmation which may be due to the over booking or any other reason.
