The displayed prices at the reception, in the room or studio/apartment, if they differ from the contracted or those in the organizer’s price list, give the passenger the right to make a comparison, file a complaint and request a refund of any price difference. The highlighted category on the inside of the door in the rooms or studio/apartment in certain countries (Greece, Bulgaria…) does not mean that the category is comparable to ours, or categories in other countries and if it differs from the catalog, nor does it give the traveler the right to complain. Featured category is as well as price,.

The agency does not have and does not provide information on weather conditions, during the construction season, during the working hours of catering facilities, in and around accommodation facilities, and therefore does not take responsibility for possible noise in the rooms/studios/apartments. Photos from the catalog, or from internet presentations of the interior contents of accommodation facilities and units, do not guarantee that the same appearance has not changed in the meantime, nor that the traveler will receive the same accommodation unit in appearance, equipment and size as shown in the photo. The third and fourth, auxiliary, beds can significantly reduce the space in the accommodation unit and they can be smaller than standard beds, pull-out, portable, metal or wooden, armchairs, etc., with a thinner than standard mattress. Accommodation facilities are not required to have safes, an appropriate number of tables and chairs in the restaurant, deckchairs and umbrellas around the pool and on the beach. Sunbeds and umbrellas are not always free around the pool and on the beach. Pools may be temporarily closed for cleaning, as well as during afternoon breaks and at night. The opening hours of the pool depend exclusively on the hotel/villa and may be twice. During the high season, in some resorts, due to the large number of tourists, there may be irregular supply of electricity and water, for which the agency cannot be responsible. The travel organizer is not responsible for the consequences caused by a power or water outage both in the selected facility and at the selected destination, which are caused by reasons beyond the influence of the travel organizer. In the event that the traveler threatens the agency or its representative or his behavior exceeds the limits of legally permitted and decent behavior, the representative is obliged to request the assistance or intervention of the police.
The duration of the arrangement is determined by the number of calendar days, counting from the day of the start to the day of the end of the trip, and not by the number of hours between the time of departure and return. The time of departure and arrival as well as the duration of the trip is determined by the procedures at the border crossings, the condition of the roads, the permits of the competent authorities, which the organizer cannot influence, and therefore the stated reasons cannot be the subject of complaints by the passengers. For traveling by bus, the agreed starting time of the journey is the meeting of the passengers at the place of departure of the bus on the first day of the journey, as a rule, 30 minutes before the published departure time. Analogous to the above, the first and last day are provided for the trip (and with some types of transport it can last for several days) and do not include a specific length of stay in the hotel or destination – but only indicate the day of the start and end of the trip, so the user of the service does not have the right to complain due to, for example, an evening, night or early morning departure, entering the accommodation unit late in the evening or leaving it in the early morning hours, etc.
The conditions related to obtaining discounts for children as well as other benefits that are specifically provided in the Program are determined by the direct service providers and should be interpreted restrictively (e.g. for children up to two years of age, the calendar date when the child turns two is relevant in relation to the day of the start of the trip and not the date of conclusion of the contract). In case of wrongly stated age of the passenger, the Organizer has the right to charge the difference up to the full price of the trip.
They are not included in the price and the Organizer cannot be responsible to the Traveler for optional and subsequently performed services, which are performed and charged by a foreign partner, i.e., a direct service provider, and which were not provided for in the Program or Special Agreement, as well as for the Passenger’s participation in sports and other free activities.
The organizer is not responsible for service descriptions in catalogs or on the web site of direct service providers.
Excursions organized by a local agency are paid on the spot in local currency, without the responsibility of the tour operator or agency representative for the quality and affordability of the price. Excursions are not an integral part of the travel program and represent a separate contract concluded with the organizer of the excursion, a foreign agency (which also makes payment in effect, abroad) at the final choice of the traveler himself, so the organizer cannot be responsible for excursions or other types of programs. Excursions are not an integral part of the travel program (except for circular tours where the excursion offer is listed in the travel program under the optional program with the description, content and price of the excursion) and any complaints can only be submitted to the local agency on the spot. If the organizer publishes in its catalog information about the organization of on-site excursions by third parties, it does so for information purposes, not for propaganda purposes.
Verbal and any other type of information, which differs from that contained in the written travel program or a separate written contract, does not bind the organizer and cannot be the basis for raising complaints or complaints from passengers.
6. PRICE CHANGE AND THE PASSENGER’S RIGHT TO CANCELLATION:
The organizer may request an increase in the agreed price before the start of the trip if, after the conclusion of the Agreement, there has been a change in the carrier’s tariffs and in other cases provided for by law.

7.CATEGORIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES:
All services listed in the Program include standard services of average quality, common and specific to certain destinations, places and facilities. In case the traveler wants some services outside the Program, he must conclude a Special Agreement. The Organizer is not responsible for descriptions of services in catalogs – publications or on the websites of Intermediaries and direct service providers (e.g. hotels, carriers, etc.), unless the Traveler has been expressly referred to them. The Organizer is only responsible for the descriptions of the services contained in its Programs, i.e. on its website, with the fact that obvious typographical and calculation errors give the Organizer the right to dispute the error in question before signing the Agreement.
Accommodation facilities and accommodation units, means of transport, etc. the services are described according to the official categorization of the domicile country at the time of publication of the Program, they are different and not comparable by destination, even within the same destination. Food, comfort and quality of service depend primarily on the price of the arrangement, the chosen destination and the categorization determined by local-national regulations and are beyond the control and influence of the Organizer. The start and end date of the trip determined by the Program does not imply a full-day stay of the traveler in the accommodation facility, i.e. the destination. The time of departure or arrival of passengers and the entry or exit of passengers from the accommodation facility is determined by procedures at border crossings, road conditions, permits from the competent authorities, technical and weather conditions or force majeure that can affect the departure time of the plane and other means of transport that the organizer cannot influence, and therefore the Organizer is not responsible for such cases. The first and last day of the Program are intended for travel and do not include a stay in a hotel or destination – they only indicate the calendar day of the start and end of the trip, so the Organizer is not responsible for evening, night or early morning flights, entering the room at late hours in the evening hours, leaving the hotel in the early hours of the morning and the like. For air travel arrangements, the agreed travel start time is the passenger’s meeting at the airport, which is at least 2 hours earlier than the first published departure time by the airline. In the event of a postponement of the specified flight departure time, the Organizer bears no responsibility, but national and international regulations in the field of air traffic are applied. As a rule, the departure – arrival, take-off – landing of charter flights is in the late evening or early morning and if, for example, provided the agreed initial or final meal in the form of so-called of a “cold meal” outside or in the accommodation facility, it is considered that the Agreement has been fully executed.
The services of a tourist guide, companion, local guide, animator or local representative do not imply their all-day and continuous presence, but only contact and necessary-necessary assistance to the Traveler according to pre-determined periods of periodic duty published on the notice board or in another suitable way. The instructions and instructions of the authorized representative of the Organizer (especially in relation to the time of departure, transportation, accommodation, legal and other regulations, etc.) are binding on the passenger, and non-compliance with the mentioned instructions constitutes a violation of the Agreement and all possible consequences and damages in such a case are borne by the Passenger in full.
The villa is an accommodation facility intended for accommodation of guests in the summer period, without heating. It has no reception and consists of studios or apartments, and very rarely rooms. The category is defined by numbers and the organizer cannot guarantee the quality of the local categorization. In villas in Greece, accommodation is in studios and apartments. Studios are one-room accommodation facilities, and in apartments, the bedroom is separated from the kitchen area by a door or corridor. All apartments/studios are moderately comfortable, equipped only with basic furniture and basic kitchen utensils for the expected number of passengers. Basic kitchen utensils: shallow and deep plates, cups, glasses, pot, pan and coffee pot. Basic furniture: specified number of beds, wardrobe (no drawers, only wardrobe with hangers), table, chairs. In the apartments/studios, you can, apart from the above, find additional accessories and furniture. All utensils and furniture have already been used by guests, they are not in new condition, but they are correct for use. If any of the listed accessories or inventory is not in the apartment or is in an incorrect condition, please contact your representative, who is obliged to remedy the deficiency within a reasonable period of time. The organizer’s obligation is to ensure the functionality of the entire listed inventory, but not to beautify its aesthetic appearance, thus the organizer cannot be responsible for the visual condition and it cannot be the subject of a possible passenger complaint. During their stay, the guests themselves maintain the cleanliness of the apartments/studios and are obliged to hand it over for further use in the condition in which they found it (garbage taken out, dishes washed, floor cleaned…). Apartment cleaning by cleaners, it is performed only on the days of guest changes (when some guests leave the apartments, and others settle in). Due to time constraints, cleaning does not mean defrosting the refrigerator, scrubbing the tiles, hotplates/stoves… All apartments have bed linen and blankets for the expected number of guests Bed linen is changed every 5-7 days, guests change it themselves by borrowing clean bed linen and returning used bed linen to the owners. Due to the blankets not being used during the winter, they may feel stale during the first use in the spring days. Certain construction and furnishing standards are not adequate to ours, such as in the bathroom (construction method and capacity of simultaneous use of hot water in the building) which could lead to conditions of difficult supply of hot water, which the organizer cannot influence. During the high season, there may be a period of difficult water supply, exceptionally, up to the complete disappearance of water, due to high consumption in certain parts of the day, which the organizer cannot influence. Leaving the apartment is only possible between 08:00 and 24:00. In facilities with the use of a swimming pool, the use of the pool is subject to compliance with the rules defined in writing and displayed next to the pool. Failure to comply with the stated rules entitles the owners to remove guests from the pool. The TV sets found in villas can be of different sizes and of different quality of image reception and with mostly domestic channels. Remote controls: When collecting the keys, guests receive remote controls (TV, AC). They are obliged to hand over the same in good condition when paying off the debt and leaving the apartment. On the first and last day of stay in the place, there is no space for daily rest of the guests, nor is there a place to store things. Tap water is not potable and all guests are recommended to use bottled water that can be purchased in supermarkets. In the villas that are used for the accommodation of guests, the joinery and furniture in the apartments, studios and rooms are designed and made only for renting out during the summer season and accordingly do not have ideal thermal and sound insulation.
The hotel is an accommodation facility that has a reception desk, as well as all other hotel facilities and consists of several types of rooms. The category is defined by stars or letters and the organizer cannot guarantee the quality of the local categorization. Village, Resort, Club is a complex consisting of several buildings, bungalows and/or outbuildings (separate accommodation units with a central reception with a lobby and other associated hotel facilities). It consists of several types of rooms, and the category is defined by stars or letters, and the organizer cannot guarantee the quality of the local categorization. An apartment-type hotel (aparthotel) is an accommodation facility that has a reception desk, often a small lobby, and accommodation units are studios, apartments, and sometimes rooms. Offered hotels, apartments, other facilities, as well as means of transport in ROYAL TOURS programs are described according to the official categorization of the domicile country. In the travel program, the valid hotel category is specified, on the day of the conclusion of the contract between the travel organizer and the international partner. Nutrition, comfort and the quality of other services are determined by the category and above all the price, and are under the supervision of local tourist laws, with the fact that the standards of accommodation and services are different and not comparable in certain destinations. All services listed in the travel program imply average standards of quality (comfort), common and specific for certain destinations and places, and if the traveler has not specifically contracted services of a different scope, quality and characteristics, there is no basis for submitting a complaint to the organizer. The descriptions contained in the organizer’s offer refer exclusively to the accommodation facilities with associated accompanying contents, and not to the wider environment (for example, surrounding facilities, terrain configuration, etc.). Certain facilities mentioned in the program do not have to be in operation, especially, taking into account the calendar period of stay as well as other parameters (e.g. outdoor pool in winter and indoor pool in summer…) and all in accordance with the hotelier’s rules. The quality and quantity of food in hotels depends on the local categorization and the diet and customs of the local population. Most hotels do not allow food and drinks (not even water) to be brought into the hotels, but are sold in the hotel shops. Very often, accommodation units of the same category and price, but also within the same facility, are not the same. Size, the number of floors and the view from the rooms/studios/apartments is not within the competence of the agency. In low season conditions, and sometimes during high season, it is possible that some of the contents of the hotel, catering and commercial facilities of the resort/winter resort are not in operation, for which the agency cannot be responsible. If the traveler does not have a specially contracted room/apartment/studio with special characteristics (sea view, floor space, room for the disabled…), he will accept any accommodation unit in the contracted facility from the travel program. The agency cannot influence the allocation of rooms in the hotel (exclusive competence of the reception desk).

Useful information: Due to the preservation of the environment, the natural ecological environment and the cleanliness of the sea, spraying against mosquitoes and other insects is not carried out in the coastal areas, so it is possible for them to appear in accommodation facilities and on the beaches. Guests can protect themselves from insects by purchasing insect repellent sprays or devices in supermarkets. In some buildings, due to the greenery and lush vegetation in the surroundings or the urban environment, it may happen that insects, rodents, amphibians, reptiles, etc. appear in the room.

If this happens, they are obliged to immediately inform the representative who will take all necessary further measures. Due to the proximity of the facilities to large bodies of water, the concentration of air humidity has increased, which is especially felt at the beginning of the season around and in the accommodation facilities themselves. Drainage and sewage pipes in all accommodation facilities in Greece have a narrower diameter than those used in Serbia, so the local rule that everyone follows is that toilet paper and everything else that can lead to clogging of drainage pipes are not thrown into the toilet bowl, but into the that provided bins that are located in all sanitary units. The warning that it is forbidden to throw toilet paper into the toilet bowl is found on almost all facilities in Greece, including villas, hotels, restaurants… it is a warning not to throw toilet paper and cotton wool into the toilet bowl, do not spill grease, food residues, waste and the like, due to standard narrow sewer pipes and possible congestion. If the pipe becomes clogged, guests bear the cost of unclogging the pipe in the room/studio/apartment/villa. Calling Serbia from Greece is done by dialing the code 00381 for Serbia, then the area code for the city without the zero. Tap water is not potable and all guests are recommended to use bottled water that can be purchased in supermarkets.

Also, the use of electrical appliances that are not for home use and that have a high consumption and that can cause malfunctions in the electrical installations due to their load is not allowed in the accommodation unit. Failure to comply with these provisions entitles the owner of the villa, hotel or agency to cancel accommodation for guests, in which case the entire amount of the accommodation will be charged regardless of non-stay.
Changes or deviations of individual services that are not caused by the will of the Organizer are allowed if they do not reflect negatively on the overall concept of the contracted trip.
