General

TajMahalTourGuide connects you with tour guides who are seeking to provide tours and travel-related services. We do this through our website, TajMahalTourGuide.com ("Site"), which is a communications and payment processing system that enables the connection between you and the tour guides.

Mode of Payment

TajMahalTourGuide offers a flexible mode of payment. You can send advanced payments to our bank through wire transfer or mail authorization, via Visa, MasterCard, American Express credit card, and currency notes. However, for all payments that are made through a credit card, the nominal bank charges would be applicable over and above the total amount.

Making Final Payments

Final payments are due 21 days prior to the trip, depending on the program. See the Deposit, Final Payment, and Cancellation Fees schedule included in this Tour Participation Agreement for payment due dates for specific programs. Reservations may be put on a waitlist or canceled by TajMahalTourGuide if payment is not received by the final payment due date. Should this occur, cancellation charges will apply. All prices are stated in euros per person and based on double occupancy (twin sharing), unless otherwise noted.

Prices do not include charges for laundry service, telephone and Internet usage, wines, liquors, mineral waters, travel insurance, international flight tickets, India visa fees, tips, monument tickets, movie/video camera fee at monuments, miscellaneous expenses, souvenirs, or any other expenses that are not specified.

Other fees may be imposed by airlines, which are the passenger’s responsibility.

Liabilities and Limitation Policy

Please note that after finalization of the tour or service cost, if there is any hike by the government of India for guide charges, fuel costs, entrance fees for visitor attractions, or service tax, this extra cost would be borne by you.

TajMahalTourGuide acts as an agent for the airlines, railways, transporters, contractors and hotels; all exchange orders, contracts, tickets and receipts are issued by us in lieu of the terms and conditions and according to the services provided by the above.

The itineraries that are provided to guests are basically our sample itineraries and aim to give you an outline of the trip schedules that are offered by us. However, certain factors like weather, the physical ability of the guest and road conditions etc may mean some changes in the schedule, either before or during the tour, may have to be made. Therefore, the right to change the schedule is exclusively determined by us, keeping in mind the safety, comfort and the well-being of the guest.

Our charges are as per the Department of Tourism and Government of India. However, airlines and hotels retain the right to modify their rates without giving us prior notice. In this case, TajMahalTourGuide holds the right to charge the rates stipulated by the airlines and hotels. All hotel bookings are based on the normal check-in and check-out time of the hotels, unless indicated in the itinerary. We will not be responsible for any delays and alteration in the program or expenses incurred directly or indirectly due to natural hazards, flight cancellation or accident, breakdown of machinery or equipment, breakdown of transport, weather, sickness, landslides, political closures, or any other incident.

We shall not be responsible for any loss, injury or damage to person, property or otherwise in connection with any accommodation, transportation or other services, resulting directly or indirectly from any act of God, dangers, fire accident, breakdown in machinery or equipment, breakdown of transport, wars, civil disturbances, strikes, riots, thefts, pilferages, epidemics, medical or custom department regulations, defaults or any causes beyond our control.

We shall not be responsible for it because we have no insurance policy that can bear the expenses of accidents, loss caused by sickness and theft etc. Hence we request our guests to seek such insurance policy in their home town itself so that they can enjoy a comfortable and tension-free trip with us. We also expect you to take care of all your personal belongings, as any loss related to baggage and personal property would be borne by you.
