Terms & Conditions

Information for clients before placing an order

Dear Clients,

We wish to inform you hereby on our holiday trips and our travel agency, on concluding holiday trips agreements on the basis of which you can participate in our trips and provide you with certain important information so that you are sufficiently informed in detail on our services.

Our travel agency, Bohemian Journeys, s.r.o., Identification No. (IČ): 05765722, with its registered office at Slezska 1466/39, Vinohrady, 130 00 Prague 3, Czech Republic, entered in the Companies Register administered by the Municipal Court in Prague under file No. C 270373, is a holiday trips organizer focused on photography tours. If you decide to participate in one of our trips you will conclude a Holiday Trip Agreement with our travel agency (hereinafter the “Agreement”). Prior to the conclusion of the Agreement, i.e. before you place a binding order, please read the information provided below, information concerning our holiday trips in our catalogue and our general contractual terms and conditions that constitute an integral part of the Agreement and that are presented to you together with the information said.

Bohemian Journeys, s.r.o. (company) shall be entitled to operate a travel agency on the basis of a license granted on April 24th, 2017 by Trade Licensing Office in Prague 4.

Our travel agency has taken out guarantee insurance against bankruptcy with Union poisťovňa, a.s., Identification No. (IČ): 31322051, with its registered office at Prague 2, Španělská 2, postal code 120 00. A confirmation of the guarantee insurance against bankruptcy constitutes an annex to this Information or an annex to the Holiday Trip Agreement or Holiday Trip Confirmation. The confirmation of the guarantee insurance against bankruptcy includes the extent of insurance proceeds and conditions for raising a client’s claim. The extent of insurance proceeds and conditions for raising a client’s claim are attached at the end of this document.

Please take into account that the insurance of the guarantee against bankruptcy of a travel agency does not constitute a travel or health insurance of individual clients or insurance against costs incurred by the client in connection with his/her rescission of the Holiday Trip Agreement (insurance of the trip cancellation). Every client can conclude travel health and injury insurance, insurance of reimbursement of health care expenses and insurance of the trip cancellation with an insurer chosen by the client at his/her own costs and liability. Our travel agency requests and strongly recommends that every client takes out travel insurance (including inter alia baggage insurance and insurance/supplementary insurance of photo camera(s)), as well as reasonable insurance of reimbursement of health care expenses. Our travel agency does not provide or mediate any travel insurance, health care expenses insurance, trip cancellation insurance or any other insurance (except for the above-mentioned insurance of a guarantee for the travel agency bankruptcy). We recommend that the client takes out a separate travel insurance and health care expenses insurance for every trip and does not rely on any insurance that is a part of other services (such as from payment or credit cards) or legal insurance (if it is provided), since such insurance may be inappropriate from the viewpoint of insurance proceeds limits, restriction of insured perils (in particular in relation to your valuable photo camera(s), absence of trip cancellation insurance, etc.), impossibility to use assistance service, etc.

Our holiday trips are described in a catalogue that is available on our website https://www.bohemianjourneys.com/. The catalogue contains programs of individual trips. Our travel agency provides only services stated in the catalogue and in the agreement for individual holiday trips and thus we recommend you to acquaint yourself in advance with the extent of the services provided during the trip. Our travel agency cannot guarantee due provision of services that are not stated in the catalogue or in the agreement. Our travel agency for example does not provide transport to the target destination (for more information see the text below).

Transport

Our travel agency does not provide transport to or from the country where the holiday trip takes place (hereinafter the “Destination Country”) due to the fact that our trips are prepared for a limited number of clients that may come from various countries and it is thus not possible or purposeful that we procure individual transport for every client. The transport to the Destination Country and to the place of the initial meeting or to the accommodation facility as well as the transport back to the country from which you arrived (including for example the journey to and from the airport, railway station, etc.) will be procured by you at your own liability. Please pay appropriate attention to the organization of the journey since if you miss your initial meeting in the Destination Country we cannot wait for individual clients and will have to start without you; in such a case, we cannot return the price you paid for the trip or provide you with a discount on the trip price. We recommend you to ascertain the possibilities and availability of the transport to the Destination Country before you place an order for our holiday trip.

If you cannot get suitable transport to the Destination Country and rescind the Holiday Trip Agreement for this reason before the trip commencement, a rescission fee shall be charged to you in the amount stated in our General Business Terms and Conditions (hereinafter the “General Conditions”). Therefore we recommend you to procure and reserve the transport as early as possible, while taking into consideration that our trips are always organized for a certain minimum number of participants and it may therefore happen that the trip will be cancelled by our travel agency due to an insufficient number of participants without a claim to reimbursement of the travel expenses paid by you. You may resolve this issue for example by appropriate trip cancellation insurance or by agreement with your transporter on the possibility to cancel the journey.

The transport within the framework of the holiday trip program in the Destination Country and between individual locations that you will visit within the framework of our trips is procured jointly for all trip participants unless set forth or agreed otherwise for a concrete trip. For more information see our catalogue.

Date of Commencement and End of the Holiday Trip

The date of commencement and end of the holiday trip is stated in our catalogue and in the agreement. The trip commencement date is always the day when our travel agency provides the first tourism service that is included in the trip, i.e. either a joint meeting at the place of the initial meeting or the accommodation in the Destination Country. Please keep in mind that you must be in the Destination Country and at the place of the initial meeting or at the accommodation place on the date of the trip commencement; please do not forget to take this into consideration when you plan the journey, transport and vacation. The above-mentioned facts also apply to the trip end date. The trip commencement and end dates thus do not include the time for your transport to the Destination Country and to the place of the initial meeting or to the accommodation facility or the time for your transport back to your home or further stay. If you are delayed we recommend you to contact our travel agency as well as the relevant accommodation facility and inform them about your delay.

Guide’s Commentary Language and Photo Cameras

Our travel agency provides holiday trips in particular for photo enthusiasts and, as a rule, the guide’s commentary and professional supervision when taking photographs are a part of our trips. Therefore it is important that you understand the language in which the guide’s commentary will be provided; such language is always English, unless another language is expressly stated in the catalogue. If you do not properly understand the guide’s commentary, the delight in the trip organized by us may be limited.

Our services do not include lending or leasing of photo cameras. The clients must therefore get and take with them their own cameras, otherwise the delight in the trip organized by us may be limited.

Visa and Passport Requirements and Physical Fitness Conditions and Formalities

Our services do not include obtaining of visas and passports or fulfilling physical fitness formalities imposed on the clients. Every client is obliged to have a valid travel document (as a rule, it is required that such document is valid for at least six more months after the return from the Destination Country) and is obliged to obtain at his/her own costs and liability visas and other entry requirements in the Destination Country or the countries across which the client travels, including physical fitness formalities. In this respect, we note that various countries have various restrictions for entry of foreign citizens and the client must ascertain and ensure that the conditions and requirements of the relevant country are fulfilled (certain countries do not admit to their territories foreigners who were convicted for a criminal act or a certain kind of criminal act, etc.). We recommend Czech citizens to see the website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Czech Republic (www.mzv.cz), in particular the section “Travelling”, for information concerning requirements for visas and passports or physical fitness formalities when travelling abroad. Citizens of other countries may find information concerning the entry to and residence in the Czech Republic on the website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Czech Republic (www.mzv.cz), on the English version of the website, in particular the Entry & Residence section. Clients may ask for more information individually at our e-mail address; in such an event, we will exercise our best efforts to provide you with complete information. Nonetheless, please take into account that you can obtain binding and up-to-date information only from the relevant representative office or the relevant Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Conditions for the Participation in a Holiday Trip

Clients must fulfil the following conditions for their participation in a holiday trip:

• they must take their own cameras with them;
• common physical condition for long walks;
• they must fulfil requirements for visas and passports for the stay at the destination place or other conditions for entry into the Destination Country, including physical fitness conditions and formalities;
• good knowledge of English or the language stated in the holiday trip catalogue as the guide’s commentary language (unless the commentary language is expressly stated in the catalogue, such language is always English);
• at least 18 years of age and full legal capacity;
• special conditions for the trip participation stated in the catalogue.

The above-mentioned conditions must be fulfilled no later than within the trip commencement, unless the character of such conditions requires that they must be fulfilled earlier (in particular conditions for visas and passports and physical fitness conditions and formalities that must be fulfilled when entering the Destination Country). Please take into account that the above-mentioned conditions for the participation in the trip are set forth in particular for your safety, trouble-free course of the trip and maximum satisfaction of the clients.

Accommodation

The catalogue prices are always stated for one person and where the accommodation is a part of the holiday trip, the catalogue states whether one person is accommodated in one room (single or double room) or if one person is accommodated in a double room with another person. If the client is accommodated in a double room with another person, such person is chosen by our travel agency or the accommodation facility operator. If you wish to be accommodated in one room with another client (in the case of holiday trips the price of which includes a double room), it is possible to agree on such accommodation individually if you state this in your order; in such an event, the price of the trip may be different. The accommodation in individual countries may differ with regard to local customs and, for example, the quality of a three star hotel room in a country may differ significantly from a three star room in another country.

You can conclude a Holiday Trip Agreement with our travel agency by an order; the agreement will be concluded after you pay the advance payment and after our travel agency approves your order. The order may be placed by filling-in an order form placed on the website for a particular Holiday Trip (entry to order form via clicking „BOOK THE TOUR” button).

Please take into account that neither the catalogue nor the information on holiday trips stated on our website constitute a binding offer but only a call to make your offers and that if you merely send your order the Holiday Trip Agreement is not concluded. To conclude the Holiday Trip Agreement, it is necessary not only to send your order but the order must be accepted by our travel agency. On the basis of properly completed and sent order we can approve your order whereby the Holiday Trip Agreement is concluded.

Our General Business Terms and Conditions constitute an integral part of the Holiday Trip Agreement; the current wording of the conditions said is published on our website at /terms-and-conditions. The General Conditions specify the rights and obligations of the parties on the holiday trip as well as other important information that you should be acquainted with before you place your order, in particular the information on prices, method and deadlines for payment of prices, cases when the client is obliged to pay a rescission fee (including the amount thereof) to the travel agency if he/she rescinds the Holiday Trip Agreement. By placing the order, you acknowledge that you have acquainted yourself with the General Conditions as well as with this precontractual information and that you agree therewith and herewith. Therefore, please pay attention to the General Conditions. The wording of the General Conditions is presented with this information and will also be sent to you together with the approved order/trip confirmation.

Our trips are organized for a certain minimum number of participants. This means that if such minimum number of participants is not achieved, we can cancel the trip. The minimum number of participants and the deadline within which we inform the client that the minimum number of participants has not been achieved and that the trip may be cancelled are stated in the catalogue.

Clients are entitled to assign their agreements to a third party who fulfils the above-mentioned conditions for the participation in the trip. Our travel agency must be informed of the change of the client at least seven calendar days before the commencement of the trip; if the agreement is concluded within a period shorter than seven calendar days before the trip commencement, the deadline for delivering the assignment notice must be delivered four days prior to the trip commencement. For more conditions for a change of the client see our General Conditions.

In view of the fact that our clients come from various countries and that we do not wish to bother our clients by useless paperwork or costs, we communicate with our client in particular via e-mail to/from the following e-mail address(es):

[email protected]

We will use the e-mail address that you will state in your order for communicating with you. Therefore, it is important that you inform us about any change regarding your e-mail address (including other contact data) without undue delay.

   3. If the Czech crown exchange rate is increased, the Organizer shall be entitled to increase the trip price by the amount equalling the difference between the trip price pursuant to the Czech crown exchange rate as of the first day of the sixth calendar month preceding the month in which the trip is commenced (for example if the trip is commenced on 14 September, the exchange rate decisive date shall be 1 March) and the price pursuant to the current exchange rate; exchange rates announced by the Czech National Bank (current as well as retroactive available at www.cnb.cz) shall be used to determine and compare the exchange rates.
