Also, group tours / packages are based on a minimum number of 4 travelling participants: if the final number of participants is less than 4, a surcharge may be imposed on all participants.

  1. Disclaimer of liability: Matthias Koch Services is an agent for partners who provide the services specified in the detailed programmes and acts as an agent in handling bookings of services that are not supplied by Matthias Koch Services (such as flights, train or bus transportation, hotel rooms, meals, tours, visits, experiences).

Matthias Koch Services cannot be held responsible if such suppliers breach their contracts intentionally or carelessly, which may result in loss, damage, delay, or injury to you or the other members of the travelling group.

Unless a ‘guarantee’ is given in writing in your travel documents, invoice, or reservation, we cannot guarantee our suppliers’ quotes, reservations, or handling of personal effects.

Matthias Koch Services cannot be held responsible for any physical or mental consequences caused by terrorist acts, unrest, mechanical or construction failures or difficulties, diseases, local laws, climactic conditions, criminal acts or any other actions, omissions, or conditions outside the travel agent’s control.

It is the traveller’s entire responsibility to organise their travel to the ‘point of departure’ where the tour begins and ‘point of arrival’ where the tour ends. This applies to valid passports, visa, vaccination, or other entry requirements of each destination.

 

  1. At all times during your travel, you may be required to prove your identity. It is your entire responsibility to have the necessary and valid documents.

 

  1. We do therefore recommend you close travel insurance covering cancellation of the tour, health, accidents, luggage etc.
