Most of these changes will be minor and we will advise you or your travel agent of them at the earliest possible opportunity.
We also reserve the right under certain circumstances to cancel your travel arrangements. For example, if the minimum number of clients required for a particular travel arrangement is not reached, we may have to cancel that tour departure. However, we will not cancel your travel arrangements less than two weeks before your departure date, except for reasons of force majeure or failure by you to pay the final balance. If we are unable to provide the booked travel arrangements, you can either have a refund of all monies paid or accept an offer of alternative travel arrangements of comparable standard from us, if available. Riviera Tours cannot be held responsible for any cost which you incur as a result of cancellation due to lack of passenger participation.

14. PASSPORTS & VISAS

14.1a You should ensure that you allow sufficient time (currently eight weeks from posting a correctly completed application form) to apply for a passport.
It is the passenger’s responsibility to ensure that they possess all relevant travel documents prior to departure of their scheduled tour. If the passenger is acquiring the necessary visas/travel documents independently from Riviera Tours, then it is the passenger’s responsibility to ensure that they fulfil all necessary criteria prior to the scheduled tour departure. If for any reason the tour participant is unable to travel due to incomplete travel documentation after booking and confirmation of tour, the tour participant will be subject to cancellation policy as stated in clause (5.1) of these terms and conditions.
(a) UK CITIZENS – Travelling on holiday outside the EC, you must have a passport, valid for at least six months from date of departure. At present, British passport holders do not require visas for the majority of countries within Europe, only a valid passport. For all other countries, it is advisable that you check with relevant embassies or consulates.
(b) NON-EC CITIZENS – Holders of Non-EC passports are most likely to require a visa for certain countries visited within our brochure. At Riviera Tours, we provide a visa service at an extra cost for certain cases, which is separate to your holiday cost. You must submit all documents required together. Applications with documents pending will not be accepted. It is your responsibility to submit all documents to us at the correct time. Though we try our best to obtain the visa on your behalf, it is solely at the discretion of the relevant consulate to accept your application; we can therefore not take any responsibility if the visa has been refused for any reason whatsoever. We will try to process your visas as early as possible; however, we reserve the right to choose the date of submission for the application. It is responsibility of the passenger to ensure they have the correct visa in place before travelling. In the event passengers are not able to travel due to not having the correct visas, the cancellation policy set in clause 5.1 will apply.
14.1b If you are processing your visa through Riviera Tours in the UK and the visa is rejected refused or delayed by the consulate and we know the outcome 10 days prior to departure, then we will charge 25% of the tour cost for coach tours and 40% for all flight tours. If the visa is rejected within 10 days of tour departure then the cancellation will be 35% of the tour cost for coach tours and 50% for all flight tours that are cancelled (This only applies if the booking is made in UK and if the visa has been applied through Riviera Tours UK). If you are ineligible to apply for Schengen visas or you are unable to submit the documents as informed by Riviera Tours within a timeframe specified by Riviera Tours, cancellation fees stated in point 5.1 will apply. The visa fee and service charge is non-refundable in all circumstances.
14.1c Customs & Immigrations delays and enquires. Riviera Tours will not be held responsible, if you are stopped or held by any government department, e.g. Police, Customs, Immigrations or any other authorities of the destination country. The tour will continue and no financial or any other kind responsibility will be accepted by Riviera Tours. Passengers that are held back will have to make their own arrangements to their respective destination.
14.2 It is your responsibility to check any travel documentation which we issue in relation to your booking as soon as you receive it. Please contact us immediately if you believe that the document is incomplete or incorrect. We will not be able to accept liability for inaccuracies if we are not notified within five working days of issuance. We will nonetheless attempt to rectify any mistakes caused, however if notified outside five working days, you will be responsible for any associated costs.
14.3 Some airlines now require additional passport information (API) and we will inform you and failure to provide this will result in you being denied boarding. We do not accept any responsibility if you cannot travel due to this, no refund or compensation will be offered.

15. HEALTH

15.1 UK & EC Citizens are advised that from 1st January 2006, you will need a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) to receive healthcare that becomes necessary during your visit to an EEA country or Switzerland. Please note that we strongly advised that you should still obtain travel insurance as a precautionary measure.
15.2 NON EC Citizens are advised to obtain the necessary travel insurance from their country of origin, in case of person residing in the UK on work permits etc. they may obtain travel insurance from us or any other insurance supplier of their choice. We strongly advise that all passengers obtain travel insurance for the entire duration of their holiday.
15.1a VACCINATIONS, HEALTH, SAFETY & LOCAL STANDARDS
In certain countries vaccinations maybe required or recommended by the Department of Health. As regulations are frequently changing, you must check with your doctor as to which inoculations’ are advisable for your chosen holiday. You should also refer to the Department of Health leaflet “Health and Advice for Travellers”. You may also check with your local health provider. Valid medical insurance for the entire duration of your trip is highly recommended.
The safety standards and regulations, which apply overseas, are those of the country concerned. Often they do not aspire to the same levels as in the UK, due to this the general standards of safety, hygiene, fire precautions; etc can differ to those we expect in the UK. We suggest you familiarise yourself with fire escapes, and check depth and exits from swimming pools before swimming. Upset stomachs can easily be caused from climate change, water & ice. Sexually transmitted diseases are a serious threat throughout the world. Please exercise precaution and seek immediate advice if you think you may be affected. Avoid skin piercing and touching wild or stray animals as rabies is also a big threat. You should take due care of sunburn by using creams and not over exposing yourself. It is advisable to keep note of any significant medical condition you have and details of any medication you are prescribed.
