For destinations requiring a visa, the visa application must be made with the documents specified in the “Documents Required for Visa” list that your agency will provide to you. In order to avoid problems with customs police at the border of the country to be visited due to torn, worn, wet and/or similarly damaged passports; such passports must be renewed, and if the country applies a visa to T.C. citizens, the relevant visa must be in the new passport. Otherwise, responsibility belongs to the passenger. Since there is a possibility that our guests under the age of 18 may be asked for a document showing the mutual consent of the parents by the police officer on duty at country entry and exit when traveling alone or with only one of their parents, we recommend that our guests under 18 and their parents be sensitive about this matter.

Optional Tours & Activities

Optional tours and activities are organized by the local agency we work with with a minimum participation requirement of 20 people, and participation is not mandatory. If the required number is not reached, the trips cannot be carried out, or the prices, content, and vehicle used for the optional tour/activity may vary according to the number of participants. In addition, the days and times of the optional tours/activities may be changed by the guide depending on the open/closed status of museums, ruins, or venues at the places to be visited and on weather conditions.

Since extra beds are foldaway beds and coach beds, participants making 3rd-person and/or child reservations are deemed to have declared that they accept the possible cramped conditions in the rooms and the type of bed.

Important Notes

Having a valid passport and/or having obtained a visa (for destinations/passports requiring a visa) does not mean that entry into the country will be allowed. The passport police have the authority to deny you entry into the country. Bin Rota is not responsible for this situation; responsibility belongs to the passenger. BinRota is an intermediary institution between the airline and the passenger and is subject to the Hague Protocol dated 28.09.1955. Delays may occur on scheduled and special flights, or times may change before the current trip and flight. BinRota is obliged to inform these changes as soon as possible. Our passengers have purchased the tour knowing and accepting that flight details may change. Children aged 0-2 do not pay airport tax and airport service fee. Panoramic city tours included in the tour package are tours organized for the general introduction of cities, carried out panoramically with guide narration from inside the vehicle, and lasting at most 2-3 hours without museum or archaeological site entries. Bin Rota is not responsible if panoramic tours, including other tours specified in the program, cannot be carried out on the day and time of the tour due to roads closed by local authorities, areas not permitted for visits or entry, or when the tour becomes impossible due to weather conditions. Some tours may be carried out by public transportation or on foot where possible at points where roads are closed or vehicle access is not permitted.
