Below, under “General Terms and Conditions of JAY’S BAVARIAN TOURS“, you can read the official Terms and Conditions for usage of my website and company. These are required and are simply a good idea, as most businesses know. However, even though I have tried to keep my T+Cs as short and understandable as possible, I know many people do not want to read through an entire page of legalese, when there are so many exciting tours to consider. So I am going to list a few bullet points to answer some of the obvious questions. You can read more FAQs here, and other questions can be answered by reading the entire Terms and Conditions listed below, or by sending me a message.
