LOST ITEMS, OFFICIAL DOCUMENTS, PASSPORT and IDENTITY DOCUMENT LOSSES
- When leaving the hotels where you stay during your journey, please make sure that you have collected all your belongings. In cases where forgotten items are found, the costs incurred while delivering them to the country and/or person belong to the owner of the items.
- If your passport is lost or stolen, you should be aware that the representative/guide of our Agency must continue with the Tour Program for the other traveling guests, as undertaken by the agency; therefore, they must handle the entire organization related to passport procedures, return, or rejoining the tour in the country where the loss/theft occurred at their own responsibility. Our Agency accepts no responsibility for any difficulties or problems that may arise in this regard.

Nevertheless, we recommend that you be careful about eating and drinking when you are not with the group, consume only bottled water, avoid ice, milk, and dairy products, consume meat and fish products that you are sure have been thoroughly cooked, and choose fruits such as bananas and pineapples that can be peeled. We strongly recommend that you obtain a medical report and invoice from the healthcare facilities where you receive treatment for health problems or injuries that may occur due to circumstances beyond your control. This will be beneficial if you need them for insurance procedures.

- In the event of cancellation/refund, payments will be refunded in the same currency and amounts in which they were made during tour registration.
