The hotels listed in the tour programs are tentative accommodations. Depending on availability in the region and operational conditions, different hotels of the same or similar standards may be selected. Definitive hotel information can be obtained from Niltur 48 hours before the tour departure.
ALCOHOL SERVICE IN HOTELS AND RESTAURANTS
Niltur strives to prefer alcohol-free hotels and restaurants as much as possible, respecting the sensitivities of its guests. However, especially in European countries, alcoholic beverages may be served in the hotels and restaurants where services are provided. This situation falls within the general service policy of the respective establishments and is outside Niltur's direct scope of intervention.
TRIPLE ROOMS
Triple rooms are allocated based on hotel availability. In these rooms, an extra bed may be used for the third person. The extra bed may be smaller than standard beds or of a foldable type. Guests who choose to stay in a triple room are deemed to have accepted these conditions.
CHILD DISCOUNTS
Child discounts apply only to children staying in the same room with two adults. Discount rates may vary depending on the child's age, the tour content, and the policies of the hotel and transportation company.

Guests participating in tours requiring a visa are strongly advised to review Niltur's Cancellation and Refund Conditions before registering. It is recommended to register for European tours at least two months in advance and complete visa procedures at least one month before the tour departure. In cases where the visa is not obtained, results are delayed, or the application is rejected, Niltur's Cancellation and Refund Conditions apply.
VISA CONSULTANCY SERVICE
Niltur provides consultancy and intermediary services regarding the preparation, organization, and submission of required documents for visa applications to the relevant application centers. The evaluation and finalization of visa applications are entirely at the discretion of the consulate of the relevant country or competent authorities. If the visa is rejected or not finalized in time, the visa service fee will not be refunded. For transactions related to the tour fee, Niltur's Cancellation and Refund Conditions apply.
PRAYER SENSITIVITY
As Niltur, we strive to plan our tour programs considering the faith and worship sensitivities of our guests. However, due to the conditions of the destination region and the flow of the program, there may not always be access to a mosque or prayer room at every prayer time. Our guide will provide necessary guidance regarding suitable places and times. We strongly request that our guests bring their own prayer rugs and slippers.
PROGRAM CHANGES
Our guide may make changes to the sequence of the program under the knowledge and approval of Niltur due to weather conditions, transportation arrangements, local circumstances, force majeure events, or operational necessities. In necessary cases, some visit points may be removed from the program or replaced with suitable alternatives. Guests participating in the tour are deemed to have accepted these adjustments.
FEE REFUNDS
In case of tour cancellations by the consumer or Niltur, refunds are processed based on the currency and payment method used by the guest. Payments made in Turkish Lira via credit card are refunded in Turkish Lira to the relevant card; payments made in foreign currency are refunded in the currency collected.
SEQUENTIAL USE OF FLIGHTS
According to airline regulations, flights included on the same ticket must be used in the specified order. If a guest does not use or misses any leg of the flight, subsequent flights covered by the same ticket may be cancelled by the airline. In such cases, cancellation, refund, or change procedures are subject to the airline's ticket rules.
CONNECTED DOMESTIC FLIGHTS
We strongly advise our guests not to purchase domestic flights connected to the tour separately due to potential changes and delays in international flight schedules.
