Travelling

1) Whilst travelling with us, you must obey the laws of the Republic of Ireland, the UK and the EU. Furthermore, we would ask you to show respect to the different traditions that exist in Northern Ireland, and also foreign exchange restrictions. If you do not, or will not do so, you may be asked to surrender your ticket, which may be cancelled without any refund.
2) Your driver / guide may need to make a spontaneous decision in the interests of your safety. It is a condition of booking that you comply with the authority and decisions of our tourist guide in all matters of customer safety. If you do not comply with the requests of our drive / guide, or if your behaviour is not compatible with the general enjoyment, well being and safety of your fellow passengers and our driver, we reserve the right to refuse to allow you to continue the tour. In such a case, we will not be liable for any refund, compensation or any additional costs incurred by you. Conversely, we cannot accept liability for the behaviour of others on your tour, nor if any facilities are curtailed as a result of their actions.

1) It is your responsibility to inform us in writing of any medical condition that requires attention or medication before your tour commences.
2) It is your responsibility to inform us of any specific dietary requirements or allergy you may have.
2) It is your responsibility to have all the necessary visas, passports, permits, certificates and changed currency required for your itinerary. Remember, the currency of the Republic of Ireland is the EUR (euro), whereas the currency of Northern Ireland is GBP (pound sterling). However, if you have a payment card (VISA, Mastercard, etc) you can use this to pay for lunch, without need of cash.
3) During your tour, your tourist guide, with your consent, may take photographs and films of you (as part of the group) and these may be posted on our website, social media and/or brochures and/or advertising and publicity material without obtaining any further consent or payment in respect of such photographs and/or films.
