2. PRICE:

The prices are based on the price of transport, they include: the fuel, the taxes and the applicable charges to the trip, at the moment of being published in the programmed offer. As a consequence, any variation of the price can change the final price. Never, the prices can be change twenty days before the departure day.

Any condition not included in the contract would not be included in the price.

This means, that the excursions or visits purchased at the destination point are not part of the combined trip.
