OPTIONAL TOURS & ACTIVITIES

Optional tours and activities are organized by our local partner agency with a minimum participation requirement of 20 people and are 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 based on the number of participants. Additionally, the dates and times of extra tours/activities may be changed by the guide depending on whether museums, historical sites, or venues are open or 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 one large bed and one additional bed. Since additional beds are foldable or coach-style 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 only to a single (1) child accompanying two adults and falling within the age group specified in the pricing section. 

Breakfasts included in the tour services are served according to the breakfast culture of the country visited, generally as a limited continental menu consisting of butter, jam, bread, tea, or coffee, and may be served in a separate hall allocated for the group.

TIME ZONE

The Balkans share the same time zone as Turkey during summer time, but are 1 hour behind during winter time.

For example, in winter, when it is 18:30 in Turkey, it is 17:30 in the Balkans.

CLOTHING AND ESSENTIAL ITEMS

If traveling in summer, we recommend bringing easily wearable t-shirts, short-sleeved and long-sleeved shirts, cotton trousers, shorts, comfortable walking shoes, a light jacket, and a thin sweater for evenings. Additionally, you may bring a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, earplugs for possible noise, a camera, video camera, and their chargers and spare memory cards. For the winter season, we recommend clothing that allows easy movement and keeps you warm.

IMPORTANT NOTES

Having a valid passport and/or having obtained a visa (for destinations/passports where a visa is required) does not guarantee entry into the country. The border police have the authority to deny you entry. The agency is not responsible for this situation; responsibility lies with the traveler.  

The agency acts as an intermediary between the passenger and the airline and is subject to the Hague Protocol of September 28, 1955. There may be a risk of delays in scheduled and special flights, or flight times may change prior to the current tour and flight. The agency is obligated to notify passengers of these changes as soon as possible. Passengers purchase the tour knowing and accepting that flight details may change. Children aged 0-2 do not pay airport taxes or airport service fees. 

City tours included in the tour package are panoramic sightseeing tours lasting a maximum of 2-3 hours, designed for general city introduction and conducted from the vehicle with a guide's commentary. They do not include entrance fees to museums or historical sites. If these panoramic tours, including other tours specified in the program, cannot be carried out on the designated day and time due to restrictions by local authorities preventing visitation or entry, or due to closed roads caused by any event, or if weather conditions make the tour impossible, the agency shall not be held responsible for the inability to conduct said tours. Some tours may be conducted via public transport or on foot, depending on available options, at locations where vehicle access is restricted or prohibited.
