​

Change of cost, itinerary and cancellation by us

Although, ISUK Tours will make every effort to avoid changes to the itinerary and cost, ISUK Tours reserves the right to alter itineraries​ if ​required to do so​ due to unforeseen circumstances​ during the tour. Please be aware that the nature of travel involves risks and unpredictable weather and road conditions and we cannot, therefore, guarantee any departure or arrival times at any particular points of a tour itinerary. In case of cancellation by ferry, due to weather condition or technical issues, we will offer an alternative itinerary and you will be refunded only the cost of the ferry ticket or you may be offered an extra activity of an equivalent of ferry ticket cost. All tours require a minimum number of participants to operate at the price projected and publicised. If the minimum number is not reached, this may result in a change in cost and/or itinerary or cancellation of the tour. If you decide not to attend the tour for any reason, we encourage you to take the appropriate travel insurance to cover the costs before you book a tour with us.

 

Refund Policy​
Tickets are non-refundable and ticket transfers are not possible either. In the event that you are unable to attend the ​tour, tickets may be offered for ​resell to anyone you wish as long as you follow our Age Restrictions in our Terms and Conditions . ​However, you need to inform us by email in advance and include the full name of the person who purchases your ticket with his/her contact details. Otherwise, that ticket is not valid and cannot be used by anyone who purchases your ticket.  
In the event of cancellation of the tour by us, we will always refund you in full.

​

Promotional photographs

During the tours, tour guides usually take photographs for use in ISUK Tours flyers, Facebook page and group, videos and other promotional materials. ISUK Tours reserves the right to use these images and videos for promotional purposes, unless otherwise notified to us by you in writing.

​

Insurance policy
We strongly recommend that passengers arrange their own suitable travel and medical insurance.

 

All our tours are Risk Assessed before being advertised. ISUK Tours has the appropriate Public Liability Insurance to operate. Our coach partners who work with us also have their own Insurance in place for the journey.

​

It is a tour participant's responsibility to look after themselves on our tours. Our guides will always offer health and safety advice at every stage of the tour. However, be aware that if you disobey a sign or information provided by our tour guides and you injure yourself, then ISUK Tours cannot be held responsible. Our tour guides are always mindful of each of our tour participants' welfare, however they cannot ensure the personal safety of participants. Therefore, at all times you must exercise care for your own well being.

​

Leaving the tour

The Company reserves the right to refuse to carry any person whose conduct or manner is likely to cause offence, upset or danger to other passengers. The Company also reserves the right to refuse travel to any person who is experiencing medical symptoms likely to cause ill health to others. It is therefore vital that you ensure that you are fit to travel on the departure date. You may also leave the tour at anytime by giving earlier notice to your tour guide.
