[Special Reminders]
1. Traveling in Europe differs from other countries, as most tourist attractions do not permit tour buses to park nearby. Visitors must therefore walk to these sites. If a traveler has mobility issues, they may only wait in the bus at certain attractions and cannot join the group tour. Lost attractions cannot be used as reasons for demanding compensation or refunds. Please assess your physical condition before registration. Once registered, it means you acknowledge and accept these precautions. 
2. Drivers and tour leaders provide dedicated service throughout the journey, including site commentary and careful assistance. As a customary gesture of appreciation, please tip them before the tour concludes. Following European practice, our company requires a minimum daily tip of 8 euros per participant (applies equally to adults and children) for both the tour leader and driver.

5. Avoid carrying valuables and expensive jewelry while traveling. Keep valuables and certificates on your own at all times. The company, driver, and tour leader assume no responsibility for any loss.
