Panoramic tours, including other tours specified in the program, may not occur if local authorities do not allow entry or if closed roads due to any event prevent the tours from taking place; the agency is not responsible for cases where tours cannot be conducted due to weather conditions making the tour impossible.

In such cases, the responsibility lies with the passenger.
- There is no visa requirement for green passport holders, and a passport valid for at least 6 months after the travel completion date is sufficient.

- To avoid issues at the customs checkpoint in the visiting country due to torn, worn, wet, or similarly damaged passports, it is recommended to renew such passports, and if T.R. citizens require a visa for the country, the relevant visa must be in the new passport.
