France Cycling Tours

Cycling has inherent risks and dangers. It involves a degree of physical exertion and physical risk. Tour de Vines, as the supplier of recreational services, provides the following statutory warning/limitation of rights:  Whilst travelling with Tour de Vines the participant agrees to accept the authority of the tour leader.  Travelling in a group involves compromise and acceptance of the tour leader’s decisions, which are final.  The participant understands and agrees that the leader may in his or her absolute discretion decide not to permit any participant to commence, continue or complete a tour, and that this shall not result in any refund or compensation to the participant.  Participants understand that during a Tour de Vines tour, certain events may occur including but not limited to accident, illness and forces of nature.  Participants agree to assume all risks associated with the tour to the maximum extent permitted in law.  In the event of any medical or evacuation event, expenses incurred due to injury or illness are the responsibility of the participant.  Tour de Vines reserves the right to refuse a participant to complete the tour as it sees fit.

Payment terms
A provisional booking on any holiday may be made by telephone, fax or e-mail and will be held for 7 days if more than 90 days before the start of the holiday. On receipt of personal details and a non refundable deposit of $A400 per person, the booking will be confirmed via email, together with a receipt for the deposit and the payment terms for the balance. The balance must be received by Tour de Vines at least 90 days before the tour start date. Where a booking is made within 90 days of departure, the full amount of the holiday cost must accompany the completed booking form. Payment should be made credit/debit card or by cheque payable to ‘Tour de Vines’.  Full payments not received prior to 90 days before tour departure date may jeapordise a reservation on a tour, particularly in the event of other bookings that are fully paid.

Bookings may be transferred to another person if desired, and the new booking will be confirmed on payment of an administration charge of $A50. If, after the start of the holiday (which for this purpose means the starting date as stipulated in the itinerary) you wish to change the itinerary, accommodation, duration or any other material aspect of your holiday, Tour de Vines Limited cannot accept liability for any loss, damage or additional expense that you may incur and no refunds will be made.

Alternatively, you may cancel your booking and we will refund in full any moneys already paid, as a full settlement.

If we cancel your booking
If we have to cancel a booking we will offer an alternative holiday if possible. If this is not possible or acceptable to you we will refund in full any moneys already paid, as a full settlement.

Tour de Vines reserves the right to refuse a booking from, or to continue to provide services to any person if by their conduct or actions they adversely affect the enjoyment of the holiday by other persons, and will be under no liability for any costs incurred as a result.

Accommodation
The cost of each trip is based on accommodation in twin — or double — bedded rooms. Those requesting single rooms will be charged a single room supplement.

Croatia Cycle & Sail Tours

Registration
You can register in writing by mail, fax, Internet, or by email. If you register additional participants, your contract encompasses the contractual responsibilities for all the participants you registered.  By registering, you are offering us a binding travel contract. The contract is finalised through our confirmation.  Any additional arrangements or changes to the set contract must be made in writing.

Payment
A deposit in the amount of $A400 is due at the finalisation of the contract.  With the deposit and the finalisation of the contract, you will receive an insurance notice protecting you, as required by German law, from insolvency of the tour operator. 

The remainder of the payment is due 90 days before the start of the trip.  After booking you will receive a confirmation by email with dates and amounts.  This is also a part of the travel contract and needs to be read carefully as it contains the most up-to-date information about the trip.

Services
The foundation upon which the trip is organised is the description of the services, which is available in the brochure, in official pamphlets and on our website, and confirmed in your travel contract. Alterations that become necessary after the finalisation of the contract and that are made in good faith are permitted if they are not substantial, and do not change the overall character of the trip.  We assume no liability for information in the brochures.

Trip cancellation
If the minimum number of participants required for a trip is not met (18 participants for bus and boat trips, unless otherwise noted), we reserve the right to cancel it. The decision about the trip taking place or not will be made as early as possible; at least three weeks before beginning of the trip. In case of trip cancellation all payments made will be fully refunded. There can be no additional claims made against us.  As the tour operator, we have the right to cancel the tour if the trip is jeopardised, made difficult, or impaired due to an act of God.

Cancellation and changes in reservations by customers
You can withdraw from the travel contract up until the beginning of the trip.  Your cancellation is valid when your written notification reaches us. If you cancel before the 90
th day before the start of the trip, we will refund the amount paid so far, minus a cancellation handling fee.

Our cancellation fees are:

  • 60 days or more before the beginning of the trip: $100 per person
  • 59 – 31 days before the trip begins: 40 % of the invoice total
  • 30 – 21 days before the trip begins: 70 % of the invoice total
  • 20 – 11 days before the trip begins: 80 % of the invoice total
  • 10 – 1 days before the trip begins: 90 % of the invoice total

If you cancel on the day of the trip or if you do not appear for the start of the trip, we charge the full trip price.  If you miss the start of the trip or are prevented from traveling due to incomplete travel documents, this will be considered as a cancellation.

a) If two people have booked a double cabin together, and no replacement can be found to fill the space of the withdrawing candidate, we maintain the right to charge the remaining participant the corresponding accommodation surcharge, or if possible, to relocate them otherwise.
b) Reservation changes are handled the same way as cancellations. For changing your reservation, we will charge $50 changing fee for changes made 28 days or more before the beginning of the trip. This also includes changes at minor relevance like hotel stays, transfers, bike hire etc… Any later changes (if possible) will need to be handled as a cancellation and new registration. Cancellation and reservation change fees may apply.

Cancelation of the Travel Agreement by the Tour Operator
After an initial warning, Radurlaub ZeitReisen is entitled to cancel the travel agreement with immediate effect if a participant jeopardises the wellbeing of other participants on the same tour.

Liability
We are liable within the scope of a merchant’s duty of care for diligent trip preparation, careful selection and supervision of participating agencies, accuracy of service and activity descriptions, and standard provision of the services agreed upon. Our liability for damages other than personal injury is limited to three times the cost of the trip, provided the damages are neither intentional nor due to gross negligence. This limitation is still in effect if we are responsible for the damage due to the fault of a service provider.  If we are solely procurers of foreign services, we are liable only for proper procurement, not for the services. We are liable for damage or loss of luggage up to the amount of 250 € only if the damage was caused by us and was indicated to us immediately.  Scratches on luggage, torn luggage handles, and damaged wheels are excluded from any liability.  Upon delivery of luggage at the accommodation facilities, the liability is transferred according to § 701 BGB to the officer of the accommodations.  Services that were not made use of will not be reimbursed.

Panniers
To ensure that bike panniers remain water proof they have to be closed tight. Although panniers are manufactured from waterproof material Radurlaub Zeitreisen GmbH cannot be held liable for any damage that might be caused to any personal belongings like mobile phones, cameras ect.

Participation
A vacation that involves exercise and physical activity requires greater commitment than a conventional package tour. It is your duty to make certain that you are up to the physical challenges of such a trip.  The pre-condition for a bike-tour is that you are able to handle a bicycle in street traffic and on unpaved paths under any weather conditions.  If you rent a bike, it is your responsibility to check the condition of the bike, particularly the brakes.  You bear sole responsibility for adhering to all legal regulations at home and abroad, particularly regulations about travel documents and cross-border trade.  When traveling across the exterior borders of the EU, your luggage must remain unlocked, to facilitate passage through customs.  If your baggage is searched, you will be notified about it upon arrival at the destination.  If problems with the procurement of the services occur, you are required to help within the scope of legal regulations, in order to avoid potential damages or keep them at a minimum and report any complaints to us immediately.

Duty of Care
During the duration of the trip, you are liable for damages to or the loss of bicycles, e-bikes and equipment provided to you. With the bicycle insurance offered by us you can insure yourself against the aforementioned risks. This does not cover damages or losses caused by gross negligence or intent.

Warranty
You can demand redress if the trip services are not rendered according to the contract. This can be solved by us providing compensation of equal or greater value.  In the case of disproportionate effort, corrective action can be denied.  For the period in which the services that have not been rendered according to contract, you can request a reduction in travel price after your return. The pre-condition for this is the immediate notification of our deficiencies or those of our tour guides, so that we have the opportunity to find a remedy.  Tour guides are not authorised to recognise claims.  Independent of a reduction in travel price, you can demand compensation due to non-compliance with the travel contract, unless we are not responsible for the defect.

Limitation of claim
Claims must be made in writing within one month of the contractual end of the trip.  The statute of limitation for claims based on the contract expires six months after the contractual end of the trip.  The statute of limitations for all claims of civil offence expires three years after the end of the trip.

Privacy of Personal Information
All personal information that you give us for the processing of the trip is protected against misuse under the General Data Protection Regulation.

Travel Protection
We urge you to consider effective travel cancellation cost insurance.  Before the trip, please also find out about your medical and accident insurance and about luggage insurance or travel liability insurance, if necessary.

Passport, Visa and Medical Regulations
It is your responsibility to inform yourself of, and to conform to, local and international rules and regulations, especially in regard to travel and import/export, whilst taking part on any of our tours. You are liable for any expenses and/or drawbacks which may arise as a result of your failure to do so. We do however try our very best to keep our clients up to date with the latest travel regulations.

Severability Clause
The nullification of individual clauses in the travel contract or the travel terms does not result in the nullification of the entire contract or the travel terms.
