Please note that 'you' always refers to the signatory of the Booking Form.
Passport, Visa and Health requirements
It is the responsibility of each traveller or group to take care of passport, visa and health requirements. Our local partner travel agents will advise you on the necessary documentation but it is your responsibility to ensure that you are in possession of valid and correct paperwork.
However, for some countries and nationalities visas can be arranged on arrival. Please refer to the relevant page in each tour description or contact the responsible local travel agent.
Tour programmes
The tours announced on this website are planned with immense care, with consideration being given to many factors such as site and museum opening hours, road conditions, journey times and the availability of refreshments. The tours will operate as far as possible as they are described on the website and in the final programme that will be sent to the traveller / group not later than 60 days before departure. However, sometimes situations arise due to circumstances that are beyond the control of our local partner travel agents operating the tours and which necessitate alterations to the itinerary or programme. Our local partner travel agents will do their best to replan the tour to minimise any adverse impacts of changes.
Alteration or cancellation by the traveller / group
Should you wish to make changes to your booking after having sent the Booking Form the local travel agent operating the tour will do its best to accommodate your request but it might not always be possible. For any change the local travel agent is entitled to charge an administration fee of € 20 per person and any further costs incurred in making the requested alteration.
Confirmed bookings are not transferable. If you wish to cancel your booking, you are asked to give written notice to the local travel agent operating the tour with copy to the MWNF Travel Info Desk. The following charges will apply depending on when written notice is received:
Up to 45 days before departure: 30% of paid balance.
Up to 30 days before departure: 50% of paid balance.
Up to 15 days before departure: 70% of paid balance.
Up to 3 days before departure: 90% of paid balance.
Less than 3 days before departure: 100% of paid balance.
Please note that the deposit is not refundable.
Should your cancellation be motivated by events or circumstances that are due to 'force majeure' according to the recommendation of the government of the country to be visited, all amounts paid until then will be refunded, except the deposit. Recommendations made by other governments will not be considered in this context.
Alteration or cancellation by the local travel agent operating the tour
The local travel agents will not cancel a tour or make any significant alteration to the programme unless it is necessary due to 'force majeure' according to the recommendations made by the local government of the country to be visited. Under these circumstances, if the tour is cancelled all amounts paid until then will be refunded, except the deposit. There will be no refund if the group accepts a significantly altered programme (the local travel agent will make every attempt to provide an appropriate alternative).
The local travel agents operating the tours reserve the right to make reasonable and minor alterations to any part of the itinerary or replace the nominated guide or tour lecturer with another suitable person.
