The price of the travel arrangement is stated in each travel program and is valid from the day of publication of the respective program. The prices for all arrangements are given in EUR. The company Mtours d.o.o. reserves the right to change the prices (the Obligations Code changes are due to changes in currency exchange rates, changes in transport tariffs, changes in fuel prices…). In case of price changes, the company Mtours d.o.o. is obliged to inform the passenger at least 20 days before the departure day. If the agreed price of the travel arrangement increases by more than 10%, the passenger has right to cancel his/her booking without further costs, but this must to be done no later than 2 days after receipt of the notification of the price change.

In this case the passenger is obliged to make all his/her claims abroad (where the payment was made).

Categories and Services

Unless otherwise stated in the travel program, the price of the travel arrangement includes all costs for transport, accommodation and meals, as well as the travel organization and travel guide. Special services are those costs that are not included in the price of the travel arrangement (single room or rooms other than those that are offered in the basic travel arrangement, special meals, additional excursions, …) or are listed in the travel arrangement itself as services for an additional charge (visa, airport tax, tourist tax,…). These services must be paid separately by the passenger. At the time of booking, the passenger can express his/her wishes regarding special services; if these are possible, the passenger must make an additional payment. During the trip, the special services (in the appropriate foreign currency) must be paid to the guide or the representative of Mtours d.o.o., wherever these services take place. The categorization of the accommodation (number of stars) listed in the travel arrangement programs is given by the holiday destination or is indicated by the national categorization of each country. The company Mtours d.o.o. has the right to inform the passenger of the name of the accommodation upon arrival at the destination, if not already stated.

All information given must be correct and true. Providing of false information that are essential to for the trip and calculation of the final price that you are paying is a felony and will be reported to the authorities. If that is the case Mtours d.o.o has the right to withdraw from the contract and no re-funds will be made.

Pricing Categories:

When booking tours, day trips or any other travel package/ event through Mtours d.o.o or any other licensed provider of Mtours products you will need to choose your age group, based upon which the price will be given to you. All information given needs to be correct and true. The age/pricing categories goes as listed below:

Infant (0-2): The category applies for all people aged between 0,1 and 2 years of age. If you are traveling with an infant please note that you need mark that when making a booking for your trip/tour. As this is essential information for all trips and tours where any type of transportation is included. If you have not chosen an infant category when booking a trip for your child that is less than 2-year-old, but still show up on the departure with an infant, we Mtours d.o.o. have the right to cancel the contract on the spot with the parent and the child. As the Slovenian law (or the law of the country where the trip/tour is being made) demands the infant seats for all infants and children. Infants are not permitted to seat on the laps of parents as they need the special seats. This is also the reason why we are charging the travel of an infant in the first place as he/she needs to have its own seat in the bus/car/van or any other transporting vehicle. If an overnight is included in the program that you are booking please note that infants will not be provided an extra bed and they are required to sleep in the same bed as parents. Special arrangements can be made for infant bed (cribs – nursery beds) if requested when the booking is being made and for a surcharge.

Children (2-14): The category applies for all people aged between 2 and 14 years of age. The same regulations as for infants apply for the children that are measuring less than 150cm in height. As children are entitled to some discounts for entry fees and hotel accommodation, we are more than happy to offer a discounted price for our trips and tours from children. Children will be accommodated in the same room as parents, or a connected room. They will sleep in their own beds or a pull-out bed (depends on the hotel/accommodation). If the program includes any culinary experience that includes alcohol beverages, then kids will be provided a soft drink as they are not allowed to drink alcohol beverages until they reach 18 year of age, by the Slovenian law.

Youth (15-18): The category applies for all people aged between 15 and 18 years of age. Youth children will be accommodated in their own room, or a connected room next to their parents. If the program includes any culinary experience that includes alcohol beverages, then a minor will be provided a soft drink as they are not allowed to drink alcohol beverages until they reach 18 year of age, by the Slovenian law.

Adult (18-64): The category applies for all people aged between 18 and 64 years of age.
