These basic conditions are an integral part of the Travel contract with which NoLimits Tours and the Tourist, who is applying for a specific tour package (excursion, trip, holidays), enter into.
NoLimits Tours is a trademark owned by Patos Tour Operator (Turistična agencija Patos d.o.o. in Slovenian), Lužiško-srbska 7, 1000 Ljubljana and Institute No Limits (Zavod Brez Ovir in Slovenian), Brezje 6, 4246 Brezje. The organizer of all NoLimits Tours excursions, rentals and holidays is the Institute No Limits Tours.
In case there are any questions which are not specifically regulated in these basic conditions, the terms from the individual programmes of travel or the Conditions of the Obligation code apply.
All tour packages published on the NoLimits Tours websites are prepared in accordance with people with special needs, including the disabled on wheelchairs. In case a particular programme is not suitable for persons with a specific disability, this is especially mentioned in the programme.
Guests can apply for the tour in the NoLimits Tours office personally, by telephone, in writing form by post or by e-mail. At the moment of booking the applicant and NoLimits Tours shall conclude the travel contract, for which NoLimits Tours is obliged to issue a Confirmation of Travel to the applicant. The confirmation of Travel includes the personal data of the tourist, who is applying for a tour package and the exact information about a specific tour package or it refers to the programme in which this information is stated. Part of the Confirmation of Travel is also a programme of the entire excursion. At the time of the booking, the Applicant is obliged to provide certain documents, which NoLimits Tours needs for the execution of the programme. If the Applicant provides false or incorrect data, he/she is solely responsible for any damage and additional costs, which could transpire because of the false data provided by the tourist. If the Applicant cannot join the excursion, because of false or incorrect data, which was provided to the agency (for example, false or an incomplete name at the reservation of a plane ticket), NoLimits Tours is not obliged to return the money to the tourist, which was paid in advance.
An application is considered valid, when the tourist covers the prepayments. The amount of the prepayment is 30% of the cost of the entire tour package, in case it is not stated otherwise in the programme, and it has to be paid at the moment of booking. NoLimits Tours doesn’t charge any additional costs for the entry fee.
The deadline for the application for the many day excursions is at least 30 days before the start of the excursion. In case a specific excursion is also available later, the deadline can be shorter in arrangement with NoLimits Tours. The deadline for one day excursions is 7 days before the excursion.
The services, which are included in the price of the tour package, are stated in every programme specifically. If they are not stated otherwise in the programme, the stated prices per person apply. Programmes are made after the booking. The published programmes on the websites and the prices are of an informative nature and depend on the date of the tour, number of applications, the prices of the accommodation facilities and any other services, which are chosen by the tourist in arrangement with NoLimits Tours. The specific price of the tour is calculated at the moment of the applicant´s inquiry about a specific tour package and is forwarded to the applicant in writing.
CATEGORIZATION OF THE ACCOMMODATION FACILITIES: The categorization of the Accommodation Facilities is always made according to the standards in each country and for this there are no international standards, so the quality of the specific accommodation facility can differ in each country. The local categorization of the accommodation facilities are stated in the programmes.
Special services are those, which are not included in the price of the tour package and are available at a surcharge (for example, a single bedroom, food, optional trips, visas, insurance…). The applicant shall pay for these services specifically and in general, additional costs are not required, unless it is stated otherwise in the programme (for example, visas). The payments for the special services are made during the tour directly to the tour guide, in case it is not arranged otherwise.
The payment is valid on the day, when NoLimits Tours receives the money on its bank account. With the prepayments made, the applicant ensures his/her place on the tour. The rest is paid in installments, on the terms which the tourist arranges with NoLimits Tours at the moment of the application. The applicant is obliged to cover the entire amount for the tour within the deadline, as stated in this point of the General terms and conditions. Otherwise it counts as if the tourist has cancelled the application so the basic terms from point number 7 are taken into effect.
The entire amount for the tour must be paid the latest:
The applicant can pay the amount for the tour through his/her bank or using his/her credit card via the internet. All costs and provisions, connected with the transaction of money to the bank account of NoLimits Tours, needs to be paid solely by the tour applicant.
The price of the tour is determined by its programme and the offer, which is sent to the applicant and is calculated on the day the offer, is conveyed. The price includes the services stated in the programme of the tour. NoLimits Tours reserves the right to change the prices, if there are some changes in the exchange rates of the foreign currencies or the price rates of transportation or accommodation, which affect the price of the tour. The price can increase up to 20 days before the start of the tour and NoLimits Tours is obliged to notify the applicant in case there are any changes in the prices. In case the price is increased by more than 10%, the Applicant can withdraw from the tour contract and does not need to cover any damage and has the right for a full refund, which he/she previously paid to NoLimits Tours.
The price is calculated based on minimum number of applications, which is stated in the programme and can be increased in the case of a fewer number of applications. VAT is included in all the prices.
The Applicant can cancel the tour at any time before the start of the tour, and has to do so in writing.
If the applicant, who concluded the contract, can’t participate in the tour, he/she can exchange his/her reservation with another tourist. If that is possible, the transfer has to be confirmed in writing at least 15 days before the start of the tour for multiple day excursions and for one day excursions, one day before the excursion. In that case NoLimits Tours is entitled for the reimbursement of the actual costs, because of the reservation transfer from one applicant to another (for example, the purchase of a new plane ticket), and other costs, which have already been paid are automatically transferred to the other applicant. NoLimits Tours is obliged to justify the costs made by the reservation exchange.
In case the Applicant cancels the tour and cannot find a suitable replacement, NoLimits Tours has the right for a refund because of the cancellation of the tour. The amount of the refunded costs depends on the number of days remaining between the date of the cancellation and the starting date of the tour. If it is not stated otherwise, NoLimits Tours shall keeps the funds on the conditions as follows.

The minimum number of applicants is stated in the programme of the tour.
