By using this Website, you are deemed to have accepted on behalf of everyone involved in the booking these Booking Conditions, which constitutes the entire agreement between you and Localite Tour Ltd., and your booking will be accepted by us on this basis. The following conditions are valid for all tours and services, operated by Localite Tour Ltd.
Preliminary scope of the agreement:
The tour operator provides the client with the agreed travels services when a certain program and price have been agreed beforehand. In both cases an invoice is issued and sent for payment, which also represents the confirmation of Localite Tour Ltd. for the services, ordered by the clients. Any special requirements and medical problems should be reported by the client at the time of booking. After the full payment is received a set of documents will be sent over to the client, or provided directly to him on arrival, containing vouchers and other relevant information if needed (trip notes, route notes etc.). Please make sure all details inside are correct and contact us immediately should you notice incorrect or missing information.
Payments
All clients are required to pay a non-refundable deposit of 150 Euro per person for their booking to be confirmed (valid for multi-day tours), or a smaller amount in other occasions (i.e. ski packages). In any case the required deposit will be made clear on your invoice. If a reservation of flight ticket is needed we may ask the full amount of the ticket to be paid as well at the time of the deposit payment. Full payment should be received not later than 30 days prior departure. If your booking is made within 30 days of the departure date then the full amount is payable at the time of booking. If the services you have ordered amount to less than 100 Euro per person then the full amount may be required at the time of booking. If full payment is not captured on time we will send you a written reminder and if no payment follows within 5 days, we reserve the right to cancel your reservation. Payment deadlines are always available inside the invoices received by the clients and should be followed strictly. Bank charges should be shared between the client and Localite Tour Ltd. It happens often that wire transfers made outside Europe use intermediary banks in Europe, which transfer the payment afterwards to us. These intermediary banks charge extra (approx. 20-30 Euro per transfer). All clients should make sure their bank doesn’t use such mediators; otherwise the charges of the latter will also be added to the final bill of the client.
Booking alterations
Although we do our best to maintain up to date rates, unfavorable changes in exchange rates, local operators’ costs, transportation costs and taxes may occur, which will affect the final price. In such cases we will cover any increase up to 3% of the published price, but the client will be responsible to cover the balance and will be notified about the changes as soon as they become known to Localite Tour Ltd. If the increase is more than 10% the client can cancel the reservation within 10 days of the notification and the deposit will be fully refunded. If a full payment is received by that time however no surcharges will be paid by the client. If a client wants to do changes in the tour program it is necessary that these are advised as early as possible. Although we will make efforts to satisfy those changes we do not guarantee that we will be able to meet such requests.
Cancellations by the client
All cancellations should be made in written to Localite Tour Ltd. on our corporate email: [email protected]. The following cancellation charges (as a percentage of the total cost, but not less than the deposit) apply for cancellations made by clients for services in Bulgaria, booked through Localite Tour Ltd.: > 30 days – 30%; 29 – 15 days – 50%; 14 – 9 days – 70%; 8 days or less – 100%; The following cancellation charges (as a percentage of the total cost, but not less than the deposit) apply for cancellations made by clients for services outside Bulgaria, booked through Localite Tour Ltd.: > 41 days – 30%; 40 days or less – 100%. If a ground service provided by Localite Tour Ltd. is omitted by a client (e.g. transfer, tour etc.) due to last-minute illness, flight cancellation etc. this is considered “no-show” and no refund will be made. The same rule applies if a client decides to leave the holiday before its end. We will issue all required documents, verifying the cancellation, which you can use for your insurance company.
Cancellations by Localite Tour Ltd.
In the unlikely event that Localite Tour Ltd. needs to change significantly or cancel a certain reservations, the client will be given the choice to: 1) accept the changed arrangements; 2) order an alternative holiday from Localite Tour Ltd. (if a cheaper holiday is chosen the price difference will be refunded to the client; if it is a more expensive one, the difference should be paid extra by the client); 3) cancel or accept the cancellations by Localite Tour Ltd. (full refund will be obtained). Localite Tour Ltd. is not responsible for any incidental expenses that a client may have incurred as a result of the booking such as visas, vaccinations or non-refundable flights.
Force-majeure
Localite Tour Ltd. shall not be held liable in cases of “force majeure” circumstances, herewith described as events which we or our subcontractors cannot predict or avoid, such as: terrorist activity, strike, war or threat of war, riot, civil strife, natural or nuclear disaster, adverse weather conditions, fire etc.
Handling of complaints
Should our clients experience problems during their holidays, which cannot be resolved on spot by the local company representative (or if there is no such person – the hotelier, carrier or the local agent), they must inform in written the head office of Localite Tour Ltd. with an email sent to [email protected]. Please, make sure to include with full details of the case mentioned inside so that we can take proper measures in order to have this problem resolved as soon as possible. Any complaints brought to our attention after the end of the holiday could only be regarded but we regret in advance that no efforts could really be made at this later stage which would have made your holiday more enjoyable.
Texts and prices accuracy
We endeavor to present the information in our websites and brochures as accurate as possible but some errors may occur during the time of publishing or meant amendments afterwards. We kindly ask you to make sure that the information and price at the time of booking is correct, as well as the information published later on in your invoice and voucher(s).
