Since there is a possibility that police officers at entry/exit points may request a document showing joint parental consent when guests under 18 years of age travel alone or with only one parent (mother or father); we recommend that our guests under 18 years of age and their parents exercise caution in this matter.

OPTIONAL TOURS & ACTIVITIES

Optional tours and activities are organized by the local agency providing our services with a minimum participation requirement of 10 people, and participation is not mandatory. If the required number is not met, tours may not take place, or optional tour/activity prices, content, and vehicles used may vary depending on the number of participants. Additionally, the dates and times of optional tours/activities may be changed by the guide based on whether museums, historical sites, or venues in the destination are open/closed and weather conditions.

ACCOMMODATION

During periods such as fairs, congresses, concerts, events, sports tournaments, etc., hotels may be located further than the specified kilometers. Triple rooms are assigned based on hotel availability; in such rooms, the bed provided for the 3rd person may be smaller than standard beds. Triple rooms consist of 1 large bed and 1 extra bed. Since extra beds are foldable or convertible coach beds, participants who are the 3rd person and/or children booking are deemed to have accepted potential crowding in the room and the type of bed.

Child discounts apply to a single (1) child staying with 2 adults and falling within the age group specified in the pricing section. Breakfasts included in the tour program and served at the hotel are offered according to the breakfast culture of the country visited, generally as a continental breakfast consisting of butter, jam, bread, tea, or coffee, and may be served in a separate hall dedicated to the group.
