Explore Ephesus accepts no liability if there has been no fault on the part of Explore Ephesus or its’ suppliers, and the reason for the claimed damages was either the Client’s fault or a result of unusual circumstances beyond the control of Explore Ephesus by force majeure and the consequences of which could not have been avoided even with all due care.

Explore Ephesus is not liable for damages arising from changes in regulations or laws to the necessary travel document requirements. Information about these matters is given in good faith by Explore Ephesus but without liability.

Health and Conduct
All Clients are expected to satisfy themselves before booking that they are fit and able to complete the itinerary of their chosen tour as described in the itinerary.

Failure to make such disclosure will constitute a breach of these booking conditions and relieve Explore Ephesus from any obligations and liability.
