Terms & Conditions


ADMINISTRATION

Initial enquiry to attend a NO OBLIGATION Presentation Meeting must be made on the cut-out sheet on page 21 of the brochure. These requests are not normally confirmed. Simply send us the form and we will await you at the meeting. BUT please advise us if you find later that for some reason you are unable to attend. Actual booking of the tour is done on a separate form, available at the Meetings, or by post if necessary. A non-returnable deposit of £100 per machine is required on all bookings but a discount of £5 will be given if this is paid at the Meeting or by return post if the client cannot attend one. All reservations should be made BEFORE 12 APRIL AT THE LATEST, so that time remains for Bike and Sun Tours to make all necessary booking arrangements before our office closes for the touring season on 3rd May. Booking a tour after 12 April MIGHT be possible but will incur a surcharge of £20 to cover the cost of checking the availability of hotels and ferries etc. All cheques to Bike and Sun Tours.

Final payment for the holiday MUST be received more than 42 days before departure (deadline noted on invoice) or the application will be considered to be cancelled.

It would be sensible to attend as early a Meeting as possible because some tours are often heavily booked, even filled, by previous clients at our annual re-union before any of the Meetings take place. If you are particularly anxious to guarantee your place on any tour then complete the PRELIMINARY RESERVATION FORM on page 19 of the brochure and send it to us with your deposit. Early booking is particularly important because it is becoming increasingly necessary for us to make our hotel and ferry reservations in Nov/Dec due to the size of our groups recently.


CANCELLATIONS

All cancellations must be received BY POST at our office and the following terms will apply:–
  1. Up to 42 days before departure the deposit will be forfeited
  2. Between 42 and 28 days, the deposit plus 50% of any balance will be forfeited.
  3. Less than 28 days before departure, no refund given.
It should be appreciated that since all the research done by Bike and Sun Tours in recce’ing routes and checking out hotels etc. is incorporated in our route sheets no refund can be made once our package of route sheets and other literature has been despatched.

The brochure and all our route sheets are protected by copyright. They may not be copied or reproduced in any form, or used as part of any other tour without the express permission of Bike and Sun Tours International.

Our prices are guaranteed fixed unless there is a change of more than 5% in the value of the pound in relation to the Euro or the currencies of the tour countries between October 2008 and April 2008.

Bike and Sun Tours cannot be held responsible in the event of strikes or other failures of ferry companies, hoteliers or other agents employed, though every effort will be made in such circumstances to find appropriate alternatives. We pride ourselves on our flexibility. If any tour has to be cancelled by Bike and Sun Tours alone then clients will receive a full refund of all money paid, provided that all tickets, route sheets etc are returned to us. We reserve the right to alter routes and accommodation at short notice if it should be necessary.
