If the Company cancels a tour, guests will be offered a rescheduled date, tour credit or full refund.

Guests are solely responsible for:

• informing the Company of dietary restrictions or allergies at the time of booking,

• verifying ingredients directly with food vendors when appropriate, and contact information will be provided to you upon request, and 

• carrying any necessary medications, including epinephrine auto-injectors.
