TERMS AND CONDITIONS

When you make a booking, you are confirming that you understand our booking conditions and have accepted them on behalf of yourself and all members of your party. 

Your contract will be with VITOR s.r.l. (here indicated as “VITOR” or “We”), which will act as the Tour Operator.

A contract will exist as soon as We issue a confirmation invoice in response to your request for a booking and the deposit has been paid by you either to your travel agent or directly to VITOR.

The present Terms and Conditions are in accordance with EU Directive 90/314 (otherwise indicated as “Council Directive on package travel, package holidays and package tours) and Italian Law 79/2011 (otherwise indicated as “Codice del Turismo”)

 

A. BOOKING

1. Booking will be secured with a 20% non-refundable deposit to be paid at the time of confirmation, as reported in the Payment Schedule Note issued with the Offer. The reservation fee is non-refundable unless:

  1. we cancel your tour anytime, or
  2. you cancel within 72 hours of booking the tour, anytime earlier than 90 days before the scheduled departure (in this case, with a deduction due to bank charges for money transfer back to you)

2. The tour is to be considered as “booked” after the payment of a 20% non-refundable Reservation Fee, as reported in the Payment Schedule Note issued with the Offer.

3. The payment of the Reservation Fee implies accepting the Offer and the Terms and Conditions as reported in this document and on our website in the Section “Terms and Conditions” (see https://www.vitoritalytours.com/term-and-conditions-text.html) on behalf of yourself and all members of your party.

4. At the time of reservation, you must provide VITOR with your name and birthday precisely as it appears on the form of identification you plan to use (passport or identity card). Failure to provide this information at the time of reservation could result in additional fees.

5. You must clearly state all your requirements at the time of booking.

Where special requests (e.g. diet, room type, bedding requests, etc.) are an essential factor in the choice of holiday, you must advise Us at the time of booking. Please note that reasonable efforts will be made to secure special requests; however, they cannot be guaranteed.

6. Bookings made later than 45 days before departure will be considered “late booking” and will be subject to procedures devised in Section C (“Payments and Invoicing”).

7. We reserve the right in our absolute discretion to refuse any booking without specifying a reason.

 

B. CONFIRMATION

8. We will confirm the payment of the Reservation Fee by a Payment Schedule Note reporting information on the sums due and on payment terms until the start of the trip. By issuing the Payment Schedule Note We confirm that your booking is taken and accepted, in respect of all persons travelling.

9. If, for any reason, We are unable to confirm your reservation by 45 days prior to departure (see Section H “Cancellation or modification by us”), your reservation fee and eventual payments of the first instalment will be refunded in full.

10. The provision of any special request does not constitute a term of your contract with Us unless We have confirmed it in writing.

12. The following payment schedule applies:

All correspondence and communications will be sent to the address of the first person listed in the booking file, unless you specify otherwise.

We will issue the Final Payment Invoice and will send the final travel documents after your account has been paid in full within the appropriate terms and We have received an undersigned copy of the Contract by email.

14. If you are booking later than 45 days of departure, then full payment of the entire tour is required.

15. Late additions may be subject to additional costs from our suppliers. We reserve the right to pass the corresponding cost on to the customer.

Any changes made after the final payment date will be considered late changes and will be made at the sole discretion of VITOR. Should any cost arise from these changes, We reserve the right to pass the corresponding cost on to the customer.

Once the tour has departed, changes affecting the program will not be allowed.

16. In case of human or computer error in invoicing, We reserve the right to re-invoice for the correct price or service.


D. PRICES

18. If a price increase is needed and you have booked earlier than 90 days from departure, We will communicate you the updated price of your trip, which will also be updated and displayed on our website. Once you have accepted this price and your booking has been confirmed, that price will not be subject to any more variations or surcharges.

If you do not accept the price increase, you are entitled to withdraw from the contract and We will refund the reservation fee and all the additional sums eventually liquidated to us within 7 days from your communication.

19. Any modification to an itinerary, including dates and number of travellers, will require a revised proposal. 


E. TRANSFER OF RESERVATION

20. If any person named on a booking is prevented from travelling as a result of illness, the death of a close relative, jury service or any other reason which We accept as significant, We may agree to that person’s booking being transferred to another person who satisfies all the conditions applicable to the tour, provided reasonable written notice (at least 14 days) is given to Us of the intention to transfer the booking before the date of departure.

The transferor of the package and the transferee shall be jointly and severally liable to VITOR for payment of the balance due and for any additional costs arising from such transfer.

• 20% non-refundable deposit at the time of confirmation

• From 30 to 16 days prior to arrival: 80% of total tour costs,

• 15 days or less prior to arrival: 100% of total tour costs.

Any penalties for supplemental services/guarantees (including, but not limited to, hotels or late additions) resulting from cancellations made at your request will be your responsibility, and all service fees are non-refundable.

If you are booked in a double/twin room and your roommate cancels, you will be responsible for paying the single supplement fee before the final payment date.

The balance between the sums already paid and the cancellation fee will be credited to you within 5 working days, with a deduction due to bank charges for money transfer.

24. In the event that the Italian Government and/or its Agencies pass new Regulations limiting access to the territory of Italy for whatever reason, anytime after your final payment and before your arrival, you are entitled to a refund of 90% of the tour cost, with a deduction for all the expenses we cannot recover. The remaining non-refundable deposit will be valid for any bookings within the following 24 months, made by you or by a person entitled by you.

25. If, after the tour has been paid in full, but before your arrival, you decide to cancel a portion of the tour (including single services), we will cancel the related services and try and get a refund from the service suppliers. If the service suppliers agree on refunding us partially or totally, the corresponding amount will be credited to you, with a deduction due to bank charges for money transfer back to you.

You will be responsible for any changes or cancellations made to the itinerary at your request or beyond your control, before or during travel, including expenses incurred due to a change, delay or cancellation of any flights or train transfers.

No refund is due for cancellations of single services or portions of the tour after your arrival.

27. If you choose not to travel but fail to cancel your tour prior to the departure date or if you return home before the scheduled completion of your tour, you will not be eligible for any refund or reimbursement by Us for any unused portion of your trip or additional costs incurred by leaving your trip early.


H. CANCELLATION OR MODIFICATION BY US

28. Given the above mentioned payment terms (see clause 12), if you fail to pay within 48 hours from the due date, we reserve the right to cancel your tour, in which case the following cancellation fees will apply:
• Advance Payment not received within 60 days of departure date: 100% Reservation Fee,
• Final Payment not received within 30 days of departure date: 100% Reservation Fee + 100% Advance Payment.

29. We will use our best endeavours not to materially modify or cancel the holiday unless compelled to do so because of circumstances beyond our reasonable control. However, We reserve the right, at our discretion, to modify or cancel any tour, accommodation or arrangement at any time, before the start of the tour itself.

In particular, a material modification is one which has a serious effect on your holiday (for example, a change of departure date) which may, depending on your circumstances, cause substantial inconvenience to you.

If a change in accommodation becomes necessary for any reason, hotels substituted will be comparable to those indicated in the tour program. We do not consider a change of hotel or vehicle as a material modification.

Also, “force majeure” is defined as unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond the control of VITOR, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all due care had been exercised.

In the case of any material modification or cancellation, We will endeavour to advise you or your travel agent as soon as reasonably possible. In case of material modifications, if you accept them, they will form part of the contract between you and VITOR.

30. Should you not accept our proposal of material modification or cancellation, We will provide you with the following alternatives:
a) an alternative tour of equivalent or superior quality and equivalent price, if possible;
b) an alternative tour of a lower quality together with a refund of the difference in price between the package purchased and the substitute package; or
c) withdraw from the contract without penalty and with a full refund of all monies paid, including the Reservation Fee.

You shall inform Us of your decision as soon as possible, however not later than 3 days from our notice.

31. In case of “force majeure” as described in clause 58 below, We will be entitled to cancel the trip upon informing you that we are doing so, whereupon all monies paid by you for your tour shall be refunded to you (including the Reservation Fee), but no further compensation will be paid.

32. If a material modification or cancellation is made to your trip within 45 days of the departure date for reasons other than force majeure (as described in clause 54 below), and you wish to withdraw from the contract, you will receive compensation in accordance with the following table:

Period before scheduled departure date that we notify you or your travel agent of material modification or cancellation / Compensation offered per booking
45-30 days:   10%
29-7 days:     15%
6-0 days:       20%

33. We reserve the right to alter or substitute the type of vehicle mentioned in our tours, depending on the number of participants on the particular trip.

34. We cannot be held responsible for any delays or cancellations caused by reasons including but not limited to weather, mechanical issues or personnel strike.

35. We will use our best endeavours not to materially modify or cancel the tour unless compelled to do so because of circumstances beyond our control. However, at our discretion, we reserve the right to modify program itineraries, including arranged sightseeing and featured experts, and substitute accommodations, including vessels, aircraft and trains, at any time due to unforeseen circumstances or circumstances beyond our control. Reasonable efforts will be made to operate itineraries as planned, but alterations may occur after the final itinerary has been issued. Though all scheduled activities have been confirmed in advance, venues including museums and other points of interest may change their hours of operations at short notice. If this occurs, we will offer alternative arrangements.

If a change in accommodations becomes necessary for any reason, in particular because any of the accommodations mentioned in the program has become unavailable before we could book it, the new accommodations will be comparable to those indicated in the tour program. We do not consider a change of accommodation or vehicle as a material modification.


I. SALES CONTRACT

36. The Sales Contract will be issued and sent via email after the Advance Payment, however not later than 45 days from the date of departure of the tour, to the email address indicated in your booking. In case you ask for documents to be also printed and shipped to your address, courier shipping costs will be charged to you.

37. The Sales Contract includes the following information:
a) Destinations, start and end dates, length of the tour,
b) Price of tour, exclusions,
c) Payment schedule,
d) Detailed information about VITOR’s Mandatory Coverage and other Insurance Covers asked for by the customer,

J. TRAVEL DOCUMENTS

39. After the final payment has been accredited on our accounts, final Travel Documents, including a Detailed Day-by-day Itinerary, will be mailed within 5 days of departure time.

Travel Documents will be issued and sent via email to the email address indicated in your booking. In case you ask for documents to be also printed and shipped to your address, courier shipping costs will be charged to you.

If your mailing address changes or if you want your final documents sent to a different address, you should notify Us prior to your final payment date. Otherwise, you will be responsible for any additional mailing costs.

We cannot accept any liability if We are not notified of any inaccuracy in any document within 15 days of tour departure.

While We will do our best to rectify any changes made outside this time, it is your responsibility to meet any additional costs which may be involved, except in the case of an error made solely by Us and where there is a good reason for you not contacting Us within the specified time.

40. You are responsible for ensuring that all necessary personal travel documents, in particular Passports and Identity Cards, are valid and effective, and for verifying entry requirements necessary for Italy and obtaining an Entry Visa when needed.

We will not be liable to make any refund or pay compensation if you or any member of your party are unable to proceed with the tour as planned because of incorrect or missing personal documents.

Also, you are responsible for any expenses incurred as a result of delays or itinerary changes related to your lack of appropriate travel documents and are therefore ineligible for any refund from Us.


K. INSURANCE

41. Travel insurance is not included in the price of the journey. We highly recommend that you and all members of your party take out comprehensive travel insurance that it is adequate for your needs, before you travel on your VITOR tour. Your insurance should include:
• medical and repatriation expenses,
• personal injury,
• death,
• personal liability,
• legal expenses.

If you suffer from a disability or medical condition you should disclose this to insurers.

42. You agree to indemnify Us against all third-party actions taken against Us in respect of actions, accidents or damages caused by or to you arising from your participation in the holiday.

43. In the event of you making a claim against Us for services rendered on your trip, you agree to sign over to Us any rights to take action against the supplier or any other person or party that you have a complaint or legal right against and to co-operate fully with Us, should we or our Insurers wish to enforce those rights which have been assigned to Us.

44. For additional information regarding our coverage, pls go to www.vitoritalytours.com/insurance .


L. START OF THE TOUR - DELAYS

45. All Tours and Services start at the meeting point at the time as stated in the Final Detailed Itinerary.

46. In case you are aware of a delay in showing up, you must notify Us of your new arrival time.

47. If you arrive later than 1 hour, we reserve the right to charge you with the additional cost of service. If later than 6 hours, this will be considered as “No Show”. Provided that we can arrange a new transfer, we will charge you with the additional service cost.

48. No refund will be due for missing tour portions or components (including, but not limited to, meals, excursions or sightseeing tours, train and car/minivan transfers) due to delays or cancellations by you.


M. OUR LIABILITY TO YOU

49. Subject to clause 50 below, we accept responsibility if any part of your holiday arrangements (that occur after your VITOR Tour has commenced) is not as described in the tour program, or not of a reasonable standard, due fault on our part.

We do not accept responsibility if and to the extent that any failure of your holiday arrangements or harm is not caused by any fault of ours, or our agents or suppliers, but is attributable to your own acts or omissions, or to the acts or omissions of a third party unconnected with your tour arrangements or to unusual or unforeseeable circumstances or events which could not have been anticipated or avoided by Us, our servants, agents, or suppliers even with the exercise of all due care.

50. Subject to clause 49 above, if any failure in your tour arrangements or damage arising from the nonperformance or improper performance of the services involved in your travel package or tour relates to, or if you or any member of your party is killed, injured or becomes ill during or as a result of carriage by aircraft, ship or train forming part of the holiday arrangements booked before departure in your trip with Us, our liability to pay compensation and/or the amount of compensation We will pay is limited in accordance with the liability of the carrier under any international convention which governs such services. International Conventions which may apply include, but are not limited to, the following: in respect of carriage by sea, the Athens Convention 1974; in respect of rail carriage, the Berne Convention 1961; and, in respect of carriage by road, the Geneva Convention 1973. The terms of these conventions are incorporated into and form part of your contract with Us. You should also be aware that these conventions may limit or remove the carrier’s liability to you and the amount which the carrier has to pay to you in the event of damage, death or personal injury. You should also know that the carrier will rely upon its ‘conditions of carriage’ which may limit or remove the carrier’s liability to you and limit compensation under international conventions.

51. If We make any payment to you or any member of your party for death, personal injury or illness, you must give Us or our insurers the rights you may have to take action against the person or organisation responsible for causing the death, personal injury or illness and you must cooperate fully with Us in seeking recovery of any payment we may make to you.

52. If after departure We become aware that We are unable to procure a significant proportion of the services to be provided, We will make suitable alternative arrangements, at no extra cost to you, for the continuation of the package and will, where appropriate, compensate you for the difference between the services to be supplied under our contract with you and those effectively supplied.

If it is not possible to make such arrangements or these arrangements are not accepted by you for good reasons, We will, where appropriate, provide you at no extra cost with equivalent transport back to the place of departure or to another place to which you have agreed and will, where appropriate, compensate you.

53. With regard to the eventual damage resulting for you from our failure to perform or the improper performance of the contract, We are liable unless such failure to perform or improper performance is attributable neither to any fault of ours nor to that of another supplier of services, because:
- the failures which occur in the performance of the contract are attributable to you,
- such failures are attributable to a third party unconnected with the provision of the services contracted for, and are unforeseeable or unavoidable,
- such failures are due to a case of force majeure, or to an event which We or the supplier of services, even with all due care, could not foresee or forestall.

54. Where, as a result of circumstances beyond our control, We are obliged to change or end your tour after departure, We will not pay compensation or reimburse you for expenses incurred. You should have adequate travel insurance for your holiday and claim via your insurance company for any loss or out-of-pocket expenses you incur as a result of the change or premature end to your holiday.

55. There will be no refunds for unused package tour services or features, including missed transfers due to airline changes and/or missed flights, train and ship changes, unused meals, missed sightseeing tours, unused entrance fees, and accommodations, howsoever this eventuality may be occasioned, including where you decide to leave the tour early. The final decision on the itinerary and the content of the tour will be taken by the VITOR Tour Manager in charge with your tour.

56. If improvements can be made to tour itineraries or unforeseen circumstances necessitate changes or delays occur for a variety of reasons beyond our control, We reserve the right to amend, adjust or alter itineraries. We will make every effort to notify you as early as possible of such changes. Due to local or national holidays, seasonal hours of operation or availability, special events and/or peak harvest seasons, access to certain facilities and attractions including but not limited to vineyards, museums, historical sites or stores may be limited. On such occasions, and whenever possible, the VITOR Manager in charge of your tour will make reasonable itinerary adjustments, aiming to minimize your inconvenience.

57. If it is necessary for Us to change or cancel your travel program in any way, you will be responsible for altering your flight plans accordingly and for any costs that result from such changes or cancellations.


N. EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY

58. VITOR will not in any way be held responsible for any loss, damage or expense resulting from a force majeure event. Force majeure means unusual and unforeseeable circumstances beyond our reasonable control or the control of our suppliers, the consequences of which neither Us nor our suppliers could avoid even with all due care, including, but not limited to, war or terrorist activities, threatened or actual, civil unrest, riot, industrial action, threatened or actual, adverse weather conditions, fire, flood, drought, natural or nuclear disaster, closures, unforeseen alterations to public transport schedules, changes imposed by rescheduling of aircraft or boats, unavoidable technical problems with transport, machinery or equipment, power failure, epidemic or outbreaks of illness or any other event outside our control the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all due care had been exercised, which either delays or extends the tour, compels a change in the holiday arrangements or its cancellation.

59. VITOR will not in any way be held responsible for:
• changes and/or cancellations for any reason by hotels;
• injury, damage, loss, accident, delay, or irregularity or through the act of default of any company or person engaged in conveying passengers, or of any hotel proprietor, personnel, servant or any other person otherwise in connection therewith;

• standards of quality, hygiene, political stability, cuisine, sanitation facilities, diseases or viruses contracted while traveling for any cause, cleanliness, telecommunications facilities, methods of conducting business, emergency medical evacuation, treatment, or medical services found;
• loss or expense due to delay or changes in transportation schedule or other causes;
• potential loss of services due to inclement weather conditions;
• any and all liability in connection with the foregoing.

60. If an internal flight is included in Your package, Your airline ticket constitutes a contract between yourself and the airlines (and not Vitor), even if purchased through Vitor. We shall not be liable and do not assume responsibility for, or accept claims regarding seat assignments, name changes, schedule changes, flight changes, and/or cancellations. Should you change or cancel your air transportation arrangements before or after your travel begins, all airline change and cancellation fees will apply.

61. VITOR and its representatives abroad act only as independent contractors acting on behalf of neither the customer nor the suppliers and principals.

62. All exchange orders, coupons, and tickets, whether paper or electronic, are issued subject to the terms and conditions under which such means of transportation, accommodations, and other services are offered or provided. The issuance and acceptance of such documents shall be deemed to be consent to the further conditions.
