IMPORTANT NOTES            

Having a valid passport and/or having obtained a visa (for destinations/passports requiring a visa) does not necessarily mean that entry to the country will be allowed. The passport police have the authority not to let you into the country. Bin Rota is not responsible for this situation; responsibility belongs to the passenger.

The agency is an intermediary institution between the airline and the passenger and is subject to the Hague Protocol of 28.09.1955.

The agency is obliged to notify these changes as soon as possible. Our passengers have purchased the tour knowing and accepting that flight details may change.
