The Operator will not be held liable for any costs incurred by the guest resulting from their failure to obtain adequate travel insurance. The Operator is not responsible or liable for loss, damage or theft of luggage or personal belongings, illness, disappointments or frustrations while on tour, nor is the Operator responsible for any type of trip interruption due to weather and other unforeseen circumstances To avoid charges for cancellation due to covered reasons, we highly recommend the purchase of comprehensive trip insurance.

All matters arising are subject to the laws of the Hellenic Republic without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

Final balance is due 60 days prior to arrival.  Based on the trip cost & the travel dates, your travel expert will recommend the appropriate number of installments, usually being up to 2 or 3.

Eros+Psyche Travel allows for the eventuality that a Participant may need to change or cancel an agreed multi-day itinerary. Travel arrangements for any member of the party may be cancelled at any time by written notice by the person who made the booking. If Participants must cancel a reservation for a Trip, the following cancellation policy applies.

Many hotels, lodges and luxury tented camps are 100% smoke-free, including all guest rooms, restaurants, lounges, meeting rooms and public spaces. Smoking in a non-smoking room or area will result in a fine. Hotel Frequent Traveller program points are not earned with hotels on Greeking.me trips.

The Operator cannot assure that special meal requests will be fulfilled and does not assume responsibility or liability if requests are not fulfilled. 

Although we will endeavour to pass any reasonable requests on to the relevant supplier, this is not confirmation that the request will be met. All requests are subject to availability. It is also your responsibility to double check and reconfirm any requirements with all holiday suppliers.

Behaviour: The Operator is here to provide the best services possible but in doing so we will not tolerate abusive or aggressive behaviour from our guests. We will refuse to deal with and may terminate the holiday of guests who assault our staff, suppliers or fellow guests or who are abusive or aggressive to them and are generally affecting the enjoyment of others with their behaviour and you may be barred from future trips with the Operator.

Errors and Omissions: In the case of computer or human billing errors, we reserve the right to re-invoice guests with correct billing. Every effort is made to accuracy of our trip presentations and travel vouchers; however, the Operator cannot be held responsible for printing or typographical errors, or errors arising from unforeseen circumstances. 

Hotel/room availability issues: Due to the fact that all Trips sold via Eros+Psyche Travel are tailor-made, availability issues may occur for hotels in popular locations or experiences. Our travel specialists always check the prices and availability of all hotels & experiences that are included in the tailor-made itinerary the Participant received, but they cannot guarantee that these will be valid at the time we receive the Pariticipants’ deposit. No bookings and reservations can be made on behalf of the Participant without receiving a deposit. After receiving the deposit, and in case some of the hotels and services are no longer available, we will look for suitable alternatives and discuss them with the Participant.

All matters arising are subject to the laws of the Hellenic Republic without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any issues not covered by the above participation terms will be resolved in good faith. The contract between the company and the participant is governed by Greek law. The Company and the traveler commit to resolving any differences that may arise in good faith and understanding. In case of failure, the parties may appeal to the Friendly Dispute Resolution Committee of the Hellenic Association of Travel & Tourist Agencies(HATTA) and request its mediation. If friendly dispute resolution proves impossible, the courts of Athens shall have jurisdiction.
