1. SCOPE OF APPLICATION OF THESE GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS (PART I)
1.1 The terms and conditions set out in this Part I apply to all bookings made by individual and group customers with Euro-tour for accommodation, conference, and travel package services. This Part I is therefore generally applicable and preliminary to the provisions of the supplementary terms and conditions in Sections II and III.
1.2 When the term ‘service’ is used in the following provisions of Part I it refers to both travel package services and individual accommodation services as defined inin accordance with the applicable provisions of the Greek civil code and the national tourism organization and conference services, either offered separately or in conjunction with accommodation services.
1.3 All of the following terms and conditions (Parts I–III) and the GR statutory provisions shall be applicable if international treaties or EU regulations are applicable to the contractual relationship with the customer and contain mandatory provisions which deviate from and prevail over these GTCs, or if under such provisions the customer, who is a citizen of an EU Member State, cannot invoke more favorable statutory provisions of their country of residence.

2. PREREQUISITE FOR BOOKINGS, USE OF SERVICES AND ADMISSION TO THE AGENT
2.1 A prerequisite for the provision of the accommodation services and admission to the youth hostel or hotels is the individual or group membership of the customer or the customer’s group in the Greek Youth Hostel Association or in another association affiliated to the International Youth Hostel Federation (IYHF). Further details about membership can be requested via the contact details provided in the legal notice or online at www.higreece.gr

2.2 The contract is entered into in accordance with the provisions of section 4 (entry into contract) subject to the condition subsequent of proof of membership or membership acquisition. This means that without such proof, the customer has no contractual right to use the contractually agreed services.

3. MINORS
3.1 Minors up to the age of 14 traveling alone have no right to be accommodated. They must be accompanied by a responsible adult having the care and custody of the minor to be accommodated at a Euro-tour Services Ltd. Declarations of consent from parents or guardians who are not traveling with the child, in whatever form, do not make it possible to accommodate a minor.
3.2 Minors aged 14 or over who are traveling alone and are not in the care and custody of Euro-tour have a restricted right to be accommodated. They will be accommodated at the Euro-tour, even if they are not accompanied by a responsible adult having the care and custody of them, subject to the fol- lowing requirements being met. The minor must present a valid ID card or passport and a properly filled in and signed declaration from their parent or guardian. The parent or guardian’s declaration of consent must be provided on the form which is published on the Euro-tour website at https://www.discovergreece.com.gr. Declarations of consent from parents or guardians in other forms or with other wording will not be accepted, even if they have legal effect.
3.3 When Euro-tour provides contractually agreed care and custody services for children, such services will only be provided with the consent of the underage guest’s parent or legal guardian. The relevant declaration of consent must without exception be made on the form which is provided to the customer in conjunction with the booking. Declarations of consent from parents or guardians in other forms will not be accepted, even if they have legal effect.

4. ENTRY INTO THE CONTRACT FOR SERVICES, CUSTOMER OBLIGATIONS
4.1 The following applies to all booking channels:
a) Euro-tour’s offer and the customer’s booking are based on the description of services and the supplementary information contained in the brochure or catalog if the customer has these at the time of booking.
b) When bookings are made by one registered person for couples, families, and small groups, or when bookings for closed groups are made by a group agent on behalf of the group, the person or institution and the relevant agent, not the individual travelers in the group, are Euro-tour’s contract partners and have a payment obligation to Euro-tour.

c) If any of the terms and conditions (Parts I–III) use the term ‘customer’ as Euro-tour’s contract partner, ‘customer’ shall also include the person or institution making the booking and the group customer. However, travelers in a group booking which has been made by another person on their behalf merely have the status of beneficiary according to the principle of a contract in favor of a third party subject to the proviso that the travelers in the group booking are not entitled to book the contractually agreed services, particularly travel and accommodation services, for themselves without the consent or support of the group customer and/or to change contractual agreements with the group customer.
d) If the content of the Euro-tour booking confirmation deviates from the content of the booking, Euro-tour is deemed to have made another offer which is binding for Euro-tour for a period of 5 days. The contract is then entered into based on the new offer if Euro-tour has informed the customer about the changed content of the offer and – if package travel services are involved
– has complied with its statutory pre-contractual information obligation and the customer explicitly accepts the offer or pays a deposit to Euro-tour before the expiry of the binding period.
e) The following applies to package travel contracts: The pre-contractual information provided by about the essential characteristics of the travel services, the cost of the travel arrangement and all additional costs, the payment terms, the minimum number of participants and the cancellation fees of Greek Civil Code only does not form part of the package travel contract if this is explicitly agreed between the parties.
f) The contract enters into force upon receipt of the booking confirmation (declaration of acceptance) by Euro-tour. Confirmation of contract will be sent or handed over to the customer by Euro-tour.
g) In the case of travel packages: Euro-tour will send a confirmation of the package travel contract to the customer in accordance with statutory requirements on a durable medium (e.g. on paper or via e-mail, thereby enabling the customer to save or store the unamended confirmation for an appropriate period of time) if the traveler does not have the right to receive confirmation of the package travel contract in paper format in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Greek civil code and the national tourism organization because the contract was concluded in physical presence of both parties or outside business premises.
4.2 The following applies to written, e-mail or fax bookings:
a) Euro-tour shall send the customer a contract offers which is not binding for Euro-tour on the basis of the customer’s booking request together with these terms and conditions (Parts I–III).
b) If the offer is for a package, the customer also receives:
· Α summary of the mandatory pre-contractual information about the travel arrangement that is prescribed in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Greek civil code and the national tourism organization if this is not already included in Euro-tour’s non-binding contract offer and the information sheet for package travelers pursuant tο GR law.
c) Euro-tour’s receipt of the contract signed by the customer is a binding declaration of willing- ness to enter a contract with Euro-tour (except when no. 4.2 e) applies). When Euro-tour sends out contract offers for individual and family bookings by e-mail, an informal, text-format contract acceptance by the customer by answering the Euro-tour e-mail suffices as a binding declaration by the customer of willingness to enter into a contract.
d) Otherwise, the provisions of section 4.1 f) and g) apply.
e) If the customer’s booking request is made close to the arrival date and Euro-tour explicitly approves it in the contract offer, the customer can enter into the contract by way of traveling to the Agent and paying for the booked arrangement upon arrival. In this case the booking confirmation is handed out to the customer at the Agent in accordance with the provisions of 4.1 f) and g).
4.3 The following applies to telephone bookings:
Euro-tour accepts non-binding customer booking requests by telephone and reserves the requested travel arrangement. The parties’ contract declarations and their entry into a contract are then in accordance with the provisions of 4.2.
4.4 The following applies to verbal in-person bookings at the Agent:
a) The customer is given a contract to countersign based on the booking request, together with these terms and conditions (Parts I–III) and, if the customer accepts the contract, a booking confirmation.
b) 4.2b) applies analogously to package travel contracts.
c) If the customer signs the contract with legally binding effect the contract is entered into on this basis.

4.5 In the case of electronic bookings (e.g. via the internet, app or telemedia) the follow- ing applies to contract conclusion:
a) Euro-tour will explain the electronic booking process to the customer in the relevant application.
b) The customer will have the opportunity to use functions to correct or erase entries or refresh the entire booking form, and use of these functions will be explained.
c) The languages available for online bookings will be stated. However, only the German & English language is legally relevant.

d) If Euro-tour has saved the contract text in the online booking system the customer will be informed of this and of the option to display the contract text at a later time.
e) By clicking on the ‘confirm booking and pay’ button the customer makes a binding offer to enter into a contract for services with Euro-tour. The contract offer is binding for the customer for three working days commencing at the time when the electronic declaration was sent.
f) An electronic booking confirmation will be sent promptly to the customer after receipt of the booking.
g) The transmission of the booking by clicking on the ‘confirm booking and pay’ button does not give the customer the right to enter a contract reflecting the content of the booking. Rather, Euro-tour is at liberty to decide whether to accept the customer’s contract offer or not.
h) The contract comes into effect when the customer receives Euro-tour’s booking confirmation.
i) If the booking confirmation is displayed on the customer’s screen immediately after the booking is made by clicking on the ‘confirm booking and pay’ button (real-time booking), the contract is entered into as soon as the booking confirmation is received by the customer and displayed on the customer’s screen without the need for an interim notification of receipt of the customer booking in accordance with f), provided that the customer is offered the option of saving the booking confirmation on a permanent data medium or printing it out. The binding nature of the accommodation or package travel contract does not, however, depend on whether the customer actually makes use of the save or print options. Euro-tour will send an additional copy of the booking confirmation to the customer in text format. Otherwise, the provisions of section 4.1 f) and g) apply.
4.6 The following applies to bookings for guests with health impairments, disabilities, or mobility restrictions:
a) Euro-tour shall endeavor, if it has the relevant facilities and available capacity at the specific hotel or hostel, to accommodate guests with health impairments, disabilities or mobility restrictions at the Hotels or hostels. However, in this case Euro-tour urgently requests that precise details of the type and extent of disability, health impairments or mobility restrictions are provided at the time of booking so that it can check whether a stay at the requested hotel or hostel is possible and confirm the booking.
b) Although the guest is under no obligation to provide such information, if the information is not provided and the booking is confirmed and implemented, Euro-tour is under no obligation to assume liability for any restrictions experienced by the guest because of Euro-tour not being aware of their circumstances, or the circumstances not being evident.
c) If the voluntary information leads to the conclusion that the requested hotels or hostels or its facilities are not suitable for the guest’s special needs, Euro-tour or the hosts will contact the guest before issuing a booking confirmation to clarify whether it will be possible for the guest to stay at the host or to accept the booking despite the problems and restrictions that are to be expected for the guest.
d) Euro-tour or the hosts will only refuse to accept the booking in accordance with statutory provisions if the notified or evident circumstances, or the guest’s requirements, render a stay at the hosts objectively impossible because the requested accommodation or the host’s basic facilities are unsuitable for the guest’s special needs.

5. GROUP BOOKINGS
5.1 Closed groups in accordance with the provisions of these terms and conditions (Parts I–III) are:
a) Several persons for whom a contract for Agent services is entered into by an institution, an association, a company, or another legal entity. This contract partner is referred to in the following as ‘group customer.’
b) A group of persons without legal capacity which is described as a group in the Euro-tour’s statutes, particularly those pertaining to group membership, as well as in advertising and offers. In this case the group customer is the person acting on behalf of the group.
c) Any group of persons, irrespective of their number, legal capacity, or status, for which the applicability of these supplementary terms and conditions to the booking has been explicitly agreed. In this case the group customer is also the person acting on behalf of the group.
5.2 The group manager(s) is or are the person(s) appointed by the group customer to undertake contract negotiations and/or handle the booking with Euro-tour and/or to accompany the group as group leader at the instructions of the group customer.
5.3 When one registered person makes a booking for couples, families, and small groups (less than 10 persons) or when bookings are made for closed groups by a group customer, the following applies:
a) Only the person or institution and its group customer making the booking, not the individual travelers, are contract partners and have a payment obligation to Euro-tour.
b) If any of the terms and conditions (Parts I–III) refer to ‘customer’ or ‘guest’ as Euro-tour’s contract partner these shall also refer to the person or institution making the booking and the group customer. However, the travelers in the group booking which has been made by another person merely have the status of beneficiary according to the principle of a contract in favor of a third party subject to the proviso that the travelers in the group booking are not entitled to book the contractually agreed services, particularly travel and accommodation services, for themselves without the consent or support of the group customer and/or to change contractual agreements with the group customer.

6. INFORMATION ABOUT THE NON-EXISTENCE OF A CANCELLATION RIGHT FOR CONSUMERS
6.1 Euro-tour wishes to point out that no right of cancellation is accorded by statutory provisions (in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Greek civil code and the national tourism organization) for accommodation and package travel contracts in accordance with section in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Greek civil code and the national tourism organization which are entered into via distance selling (letters, catalogs, telephone calls, facsimiles, e-mails, text messages sent via mobile communication services (SMS), broadcasting, Telemedia and online services). In such cases, the customer only has the statutory contractual rights of cancellation and termination in accordance with section Greek civil code and those accorded by contractual agreements. (Please refer to the provisions of Parts II and III in this respect).
6.2 However, a right of cancellation does exist if the contract was not entered into via distance selling but outside of business premises, unless the verbal negotiations on which the contract entered into is based were conducted in connection with a preceding order placed by the consumer. In the latter case, the consumer also does not have a right of cancellation.

7. HOUSE RULES; EXERCISING DOMICILIARY RIGHTS; BRINGING ANIMALS; GENERAL SMOKING BAN
7.1 Customers are required to observe the house rules if they have been informed of them, or if they have been handed out to them, or if they are displayed at a place where the customer could reasonably have gained awareness of them. Parents, other legal representatives or supervisors of minors are required to ensure that any minors in their care observe the house rules, and to comply with their legal and contractually agreed supervision obligations.
7.2 The hostel management at the relevant YH or a person appointed by the YH will exercise domiciliary rights on behalf of Euro-tour. They are authorized to issue warnings, instruct guests to leave, ban persons from the premises and grounds and, as Euro-tour’s legal representative, deputy and receiving officer, to issue and receive any other legal declarations on Euro-tour’s behalf. Persons with these rights are the hostel manager and any person authorized by the hostel manager.
7.3 The house rules include rules and restrictions relating to the night curfew, which is generally from 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. It is the customer’s duty to obtain information about specific night curfew arrangements and local night curfew rules. Exceptions from the night curfew are subject to an explicit agreement with the hostel or hotel management.
7.4 The customer is under obligation to use the accommodation and facilities in accordance with the intended purposes and rules of use, if such rules exist, and to treat them with care.
7.5 A strict smoking ban applies at all Euro-tours, both inside the hotels or hostels and on the entire site including grounds, except in the specifically designated smoking areas.
7.6 Guests are not permitted to bring along or consume alcoholic drinks at any of the Euro-tour hotels or hostels. In accordance with statutory youth protection provisions, the consumption of alcoholic beverages is only permitted if they are purchased by the consumer at the YH.
7.7 Guests are not permitted to bring animals with them. However, blind and service dogs will be permitted to stay at the youth hostels by prior arrangement with Euro-tour. Euro-tour may make further exceptions for dogs at designated youth hostels.

8. Euro-tour’s CANCELLATION AND TERMINATION RIGHTS
8.1 Euro-tour may terminate the contract without notice if, despite receiving a warning, the customer (or the group customer, group manager or travelers in the group in the case of group bookings) breaches the peace for an extended period or acts in serious breach of contract, thereby justifying an immediate termination of the contract,
· Except when such acts are a result of Euro-tour’s failure to comply with its obligation to provide information;
· Repeatedly violates house rules.
· Breaches the peace in the building, disturbs other guests, the hostel or hotel management or other third parties for an extended period of time;
· Compromises the safety of the hotels or hostels, its facilities, other guests or the hotels or hostel management;
· Deliberately or negligently damages or misuses the inventory, the equipment and facilities of the hotel or hostel, including the grounds, plants and outdoor facilities.
· Breaches the alcohol or smoking ban;
· Acts in any other manner which is in serious breach of contract and an immediate termination of the contract is justified.
8.2 A warning is not necessary before termination without notice if the guest’s breach of obligation is so serious that, particularly in the interest of the other guests and of safety (and where criminal acts have been committed) an immediate termination is justified, even taking the guest’s interests into account.
8.3 Euro-tour is entitled to terminate the contract before the arrival date if a guest can be objectively and specifically expected to behave in a way that would justify a termination in accordance with 8.1.

8.4 Euro-tour may terminate the contract before or after the start of the travel arrangement if the guest provides or has provided incorrect or misleading information about their person, their membership in accordance with section 2 of this Part, the purpose of the booking, or any other circumstances which are in breach of contract if Euro-tour would have been entitled to refuse acceptance of the booking on objective grounds and in accordance with statutory provisions had it been aware of the true circumstances.
8.5 If Euro-tour cancels the contract on those grounds, it is still entitled to receive payment for the booked services. However, it shall deduct from that payment any expenditures not incurred and any benefits accrued through alternative use of services not used by the person concerned. The provisions governing customer cancellations apply accordingly.
8.6 Euro-tour may cancel package travel contracts if not the requirements of Greek civil code.
4. No. 2 Greek civil code are met. Euro-tour is entitled to cancel other contracts if their execution or the accommodation of the guest is rendered impossible, significantly more difficult, or dangerous, or objectively hindered for reasons that Euro-tour is not responsible for, particularly elementary damage, official directives or closures, acts of nature, diseases, epidemics, pandemics or other incidents of force majeure. Euro-tour shall inform the guest of the circumstances justifying the cancellation and notify the guest of the cancellation without delay after becoming aware of those circumstances. Any payments received from the guest will be reimbursed promptly. Section GR civil code applies to packages. All further claims on the part of the guest are excluded.

9. APPLICABLE LAW, LEGAL VENUE AND CONSUMER DISPUTE SETTLEMENT
9.1 With reference to the Greek Consumer Dispute Settlement Act, Euro-tour wishes to point out that it currently does not participate in any voluntary consumer dispute settlements. If a consumer dispute settlement were to become a legal requirement for Euro-tour after the printing of these terms and conditions Euro-tour shall inform the consumers of this in an appropriate form. Reference is made by the Euro-tour to the European online dispute resolution platform http://ec.europa.eu/ consumers/odr/ in connection with all contracts which are entered into by electronic means.
9.2 Contracts between customers and Euro-tour shall be governed exclusively by the laws of the Greek civil code. The same applies to the legal relationship.
9.3 The customer may bring legal action against Euro-tour in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Greek civil code and the national tourism organization.
9.4 In the case of actions brought by Euro-tour against the customer, the customer’s domicile is authoritative. If legal actions are brought against customers which are entrepreneurs, legal entities under public or private law or persons who have their residence or customary domicile abroad or whose whereabouts is unknown at the time when the action is brought, the legal venue is agreed as the place where Euro-tour has its registered office.
9.5 The above provisions do not apply if and to the extent that the contract with the customer contains applicable and non-dispensable European Union provisions or other deviating international provisions which favor the customer.

1. SCOPE OF APPLICATION OF THESE SUPPLEMENTARY CONTRACT TERMS FOR ACCOMMODATION AND CONFERENCE SERVICES (PART II)
1.1 The provisions of this Part II apply, if agreed upon effectively, in conjunction with and in addition to the provisions of Part I for individual accommodation services pursuant in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Greek civil code and the national tourism organization (together with incidental services) as well as conference services (i.e. the provision of rooms, technical equipment and catering services), either offered separately or in conjunction with accommodation services.
1.2 The provisions of Part I and this Part II comprise the content of the guest accommodation or conference contract concluded by the guest or group customer when a booking is made with Euro-tour, and they apply in addition to any applicable statutory provisions.

2. ACCOMMODATION AND CONFERENCE SERVICES AND CHANGES TO BOOKINGS FOR ACCOMMODATION AND CONFERENCE SERVICES
2.1 The services to be provided by Euro-tour are as stated in the booking confirmation in conjunction with the effective brochure or hosts description, and any explicit agreements with the guest. The guest is recommended to make any supplementary agreements in writing.

 

 

 

 


2.2 In the absence of a specific and explicit agreement the guest has no right to be accommodated in a certain room, to be accommodated in a room in a certain location at the hotel or hostel, or to be accommodated in a room next to or close to the room(s) of other travelers in the same party. The above provision applies by analogy to the allocation and position of beds.
2.3 Guests have no right to obtain accommodation of a specific size, or specific appointments or facilities, unless an explicit agreement to this effect has been made or features such as size and appointments are specified in the information which formed the basis for the booking, or a specific room or price category has been agreed.

2.4 Euro-tour and/or the local host is/are not under any obligation to provide services beyond accommodation and/or a conference room with equipment unless this is specified in the information which formed the basis of the booking or an explicit agreement to this effect has been made. This applies, in particular, to the use of and access to leisure facilities, catering services, transport services and care and assistance services.
2.5 Where seasonal restrictions relating to facilities, offers, equipment and other services are referred to in the information which formed the basis of the booking, particularly the online description or the description in the host brochure, the obligation is limited to the scope of these seasonal restrictions.
2.6 If persons with disabilities, health impairments or mobility restrictions are accommodated as guests, there is no contractual obligation unless explicitly agreed to make, create and maintain specific characteristics, functions, equipment or circumstances to meet the guests’ needs or preferences. Special care services for such guests are only a contractual requirement if such services have been explicitly agreed upon or are explicitly referred to in the information which formed the basis of the booking as general services of the hotel or hostel. Applicable mandatory statutory provisions governing obligations to accommodate such persons remain unaffected by this.
2.7 Please refer to Part I, section 3 for information on contractual obligations towards minors.

3. PRICES AND PRICE INCREASES
3.1 The prices agreed between the guest and Euro-tour apply.
3.2 If, at the time of entering into the contract, the prices for the guest’s booking dates have not been established, the statutory provisions in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Greek civil code and the national tourism organization apply and Euro-tour will notify the guest subsequently of the prices for the booked dates and services. If the prices deviate to the detriment of the guest by more than 5% from the prices effective at the time of the booking for the same booking dates and the same scope of services, the guest is entitled to terminate the accommodation contract free of charge. Euro-tour will inform the guest without delay when the prices are established; the guest may have the right to terminate the contract with Euro-tour immediately after having been informed of the established prices by Euro-tour.
3.3 Unless specifically otherwise agreed, Euro-tour is entitled after entering into the contract to increase the price by up to 4% of the contractually agreed price
a) if the cost of utilities (water, electricity, gas, heating) increase
b) if personnel costs increase
c) and if taxes or levies are introduced or increased, provided that this increase affects the agreed room rate.
3.4 A price increase is only admissible if the date of contract conclusion and the contractually agreed accommodation dates are more than 4 months apart and the circumstances leading to the increase had not occurred and could not have been foreseen by Euro-tour at the time of contract conclusion. Euro-tour shall inform the guest without delay when it becomes aware of the grounds for the increase, enforce the increase and furnish proof of the grounds for the increase.
3.5 If an admissible increase exceeds the agreed basic room rate by 5%, the guest may terminate the contract without any payment obligation to Euro-tour. There are no form requirements for notice of termination, and it can be declared to Euro-tour immediately after receipt of the price increase demand. The written form is recommended.

4. PAYMENTS AND BOOKING CHANGES
4.1 The local hosts are authorized to collect payments on Euro-tour’s behalf if it has been agreed that payments will be made to them, subject to the proviso that all the following established rights and obligations also apply to the local hosts as Euro-tour’s collection agent and representative.
4.2 The due date of deposit and balance payments is in accordance with the arrangement made with the guest and, if applicable, noted in the booking confirmation. If no particular arrangement exists, the total accommodation price, including the ancillary costs and payments for additional services, is due upon arrival at the hosts and before occupation of the room or before acceptance of the contractually agreed services to the relevant host.
4.3 Euro-tour or the hosts may demand a deposit after conclusion of the contract. Unless otherwise agreed in specific cases, the deposit is 40% of the total price of the accommodation or conference service, as well as incidentals. Deposits towards the accommodation may only be paid after receipt of a corresponding invoice from Euro-tour.
4.4 Unless otherwise agreed, guests who live abroad do not pay a deposit. They are required to pay the entire amount after receiving the booking confirmation no later than 8 weeks before their arrival date by bank transfer to the account number stated. When guests who live abroad book accommodation with an arrival date less than 8 weeks in the future, the total amount is payable to the relevant host upon receipt of the booking confirmation and the payment must be received before checking into the accommodation or using the contractually agreed services at the host. In this respect, please refer to section 4.6 b) below.
4.5 Payments, particularly payments from other countries, must always be transferred free of charges and expenses to the stated payment recipient. Payments in foreign currencies and payments with collection only checks are accepted. Many of the hosts accept credit card payments. However, guests do not have the right to pay with credit cards.

4.6 If Euro-tour or the local host is willing and able to provide the contractually agreed services and the guest has no statutory or contractual right of retention or offsetting, the following applies:
a) Unless the agreed deposit or other advance payment is made, the guest has no right to be accommodated or receive the contractually agreed services.
b) If the guest has agreed to make a deposit or other advance payment and fails to do so or does not pay the full agreed amount despite a reminder setting a time period for payment from Euro-tour, and the customer is at fault, Euro-tour is entitled to terminate the contract with the guest and bill the cancellation charge to the guest in accordance with section 5 of these terms and conditions.
c) After entering the contract, the guest has no right to request changes to the arrival, departure or accommodation dates, the type of room, the type of board, the length of the stay, the booked additional services or other contractual services (booking changes). If, at the guest’s request, a booking change is made up to 8 weeks before the guest’s arrival date, Euro-tour may impose a booking change fee of 50€ for each booking change. Booking changes less than 6 weeks before the guest’s arrival date, if at all possible, can only be made by canceling the original accommodation contract in accordance with section 5 and making a new booking. This does not apply to booking change requests which only cause negligent costs.
d) The following applies for changes to closed group bookings: Changes to the number of travelers in the group, the number and type of beds/rooms, the category or the type of board agreed with the group customer at the time of the booking are not subject to booking change charges if they are made by the group customer within the time periods allowed under the individual contracts.

5. ACCOMMODATION BOOKING CANCELLATIONS AND NO-SHOWS; ABANDONMENT OF STAY
5.1 Guests will be informed that they have no general statutory right of cancellation or termination with accommodation contracts. However, DJH grants guests a contractual right of cancellation in accordance with the following provisions.
5.2 Cancellation is possible at any time up until the arrival date. All cancellation notifications must be communicated to the hosts in writing.
5.3 The cancellation right may be exercised by individual travelers, couples, families, and small groups (less than 10 people) up to 60 days, and in the case of closed groups up to 100 days before the arrival date at no charge, subject to the timely receipt of the notification by the relevant hotel or hostel.
5.4 Cancellations by individual travelers, couples, families and small groups (less than 10 people) later than 60 days, and in the case of closed groups later than 100 days before the arrival date will be subject to payment of the agreed accommodation rate, including board and charges for additional services, to Euro-tour.

5.6 Euro-tour shall deduct any income from alternative occupancy, and if this is not possible any expenses saved, from the due amount.
5.7 If the guest does not exercise the free cancellation right, or does not exercise it within the time period allowed, the following applies:
Euro-tour has established the following fixed cancellation charges taking into account the period of time between notification of cancellation and arrival date, as well as the expected amount of expenses saved and the expected income from the alternative use of the accommodation services. The charges are calculated at the time of receipt of the cancellation notification as follows, using the relevant cancellation scale and on the basis of the accommodation cost:
a) Families, small groups (less than 10 people), individual travelers and up to 9 canceling members of a closed group as per b):
– First 7 days of the booking confirmation: no charge
– to 60 days before arrival: 40%

Furthermore, the above cancellation charges as per 5.7 a) apply (if less than 9 members of a group cancel) or as per 5.7 b) (if more than 9 members of a group cancel).

5.8 Guests have the right to furnish proof to Euro-tour that the amount of expenses saved is significantly higher than the above-mentioned deductions, or that the alternative occupancy of the room or alternative use of the services has occurred, or the Euro-tour’s income from alternative occupancy was higher than the deducted amount. In the event that such proof is furnished, the guest is only required to pay the lower amount.
5.9 Guests are urgently advised to take out travel cancellation insurance.
5.10 The above provisions apply to couples, families and private small groups (less than 10 people) provided that a binding booking for a specific number of people was made, even if the number of guests is reduced, irrespective of whether the reduction occurred by way of an explicit notice of cancellation or termination, or by way of a no-show.
