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 passport officer has the authority to deny you entry. Küheylan Tur is not responsible for this situation; responsibility lies with the traveler.
Küheylan Tur acts as an intermediary between the passenger and the airline and is subject to the Hague Protocol of 28.09.1955. There may be risks of delays in scheduled and private flights, or flight times may change prior to the existing tour and flight. Küheylan Tur is obligated to notify passengers of these changes as soon as possible. Our passengers purchase the tour knowing and accepting that flight details may change.

Panoramic city tours included in the tour package are tours lasting a maximum of 2-3 hours, organized for general introduction to cities, conducted panoramically from the vehicle with guide commentary, and do not include entrance to museums or historical sites. In cases where panoramic tours, including other tours specified in the program, cannot be carried out because local authorities do not permit visiting or entering them on the corresponding day and time, or due to closed roads caused by any event, or if weather conditions make it impossible to conduct the tour, Küheylan Tur is not responsible for the inability to carry out said tours. Some tours may be conducted via public transport or on foot, within available means, at points where roads are closed or vehicle access is not permitted.
