TRAVEL CONDITIONS

1. REGISTRATION AND REFUNDS.

On the website we repeatedly comment that the trips are organized for an audience of 18-35 years. If the consumer is under 18 years of age, he will have to be accompanied by at least one of the parents, or have a written authorization from the legal representative. If you are over 35 years old, we only invite you to read the details of the trip carefully to find yourself in an uncomfortable situation throughout the trip.

We also accept travelers with special needs, but for organizational reasons we need to know 60 days in advance to be able to offer the best service.
