The Consumer must follow the payment procedure indicated on the Website. The payment is via an online payment gateway.

Upon completion of the order the Consumer is directed to the payment gateway page. The amount of the order is charged to the selected payment instrument following the relative payment procedure.

For each transaction the Consumer will receive an email confirming the payment from the payment gateway and subsequently a Ticket from the Company to the email address communicated by the Consumer, who hereby authorizes its sending. The agreement shall be deemed to be complete upon reception of the confirming Ticket. The email automatically sent by the payment gateway is thus not in itself sufficient to ensure that the Company has received the order correctly. The Ticket from the Company gives the Date when the Tour will take place. The Consumer undertakes to check the correctness of entered data and to promptly communicate any corrections and/or changes via email to the contacts specified in art. IX (Complaints and other communications).

Attendees to the Tours are checked in: the Consumer will be asked to hand the confirming Ticket or show it on a mobile/tablet to the Tour Leader.

Payments shall be in Euro.

The Company shall not be held liable for possible Website transmission and communication errors deriving from the technological infrastructure used, or the hosting services used or deriving from the payment gateway channel. If no email is sent by the Company, the service should not be considered to have been purchased; in such cases the Consumer is advised to contact the Company to seek an explanation.

If the order is cancelled, the full or partial amount will be refunded, when applicable (refer to art. IV and art. V), using the same instrument used by the Consumer for the payment. It is possible to cancel the order until it attains “Confirmed” status, after which only the refund procedure can be followed in accordance with the provisions of art. IV and art. V.

Once the request to cancel the transaction has been made, under no circumstances may the Company be held liable for possible damage, direct or indirect, caused by delays in releasing the amount allotted by the payment gateway.

Details of the Consumer’s credit card are handled solely by the payment gateway, and are not given to the Company at any time during the payment procedure.

IV. Consumer’s cancellation options and penalties and late arrival

The Consumer may cancel and/or revoke the purchase by communicating this intention in writing to the Email Address.

The amount paid will be refunded in full if the communication is received at least two (2) days (that is 48 hours) – unless otherwise stated on the Website with reference to specific Tours – before the date and time on which the Tour is scheduled to start. No refund will be given in the event of cancellation and/or revocation after that date and time.

Refunds shall be effected via the payment gateway following the time frames governed by conditions agreed upon directly by the Consumer and the payment gateway at the time of authorisation of the payment.

The communication should be sent to the Company’s Email Address, indicating:

• The number of registered persons and relative names for whom the cancellation is requested
• Name of the booked Tour, date of booking and scheduled Tour date
• Amount paid

The cancellation is deemed to be complete only when a confirming email from the Company is received.

Please note that Tour Leaders are not allowed to wait for Consumers arriving late. In case of late arrival or no show, no refund will be possible.

V. Cancellation and changes on the part of the Company

The Company is entitled to cancel and/or change the details of a Tour in the following cases:
a) reasons of force majeure
b) unforeseeable circumstances
c) sudden unavailability of the Tour Leader in the 24 hours prior to the Tour

If the event is cancelled for one of the above reasons the amount paid for the purchase will be refunded in full or a voucher will be issued.

Under no circumstances will the cancellation of the event entitle the Consumer to file damage claims or seek an indemnity other than that paid for the cancellation.

Possible cancellations and/or changes will be communicated by the Company as soon as possible via the contacts (email or telephone) specified by the Consumer at the time of the payment.

Even if it is not possible to contact or notify the Consumer prior to the scheduled time of the Tour, only the amount paid by the consumer will be refunded.

Tours are usually conducted in proper weather condition. The Consumer is advised to carry an umbrella and dress appropriately for weather conditions. If the Tour starts, and in the event of adverse atmospheric conditions, the Tour Leader can suspend the tour at his/her discretion. If the Tour were suspended, the Consumer will be reimbursed for partial or full price depending on the time the tour was suspended. If the Tour is suspended at the beginning of the tour, the Consumer will receive full refund. If the Tour Leader did not suspend the Tour but the Consumer did not want to continue with the tour due to rain or adverse weather conditions, the Consumer will not be refunded.
