Interpro Travel Service, Inc. herein referred to as Interpro is the Tour Operator of this program and acts only as AGENT for tour members in all functions pertaining to reservations for hotels, accommodations, restaurants, meals, sightseeing, tours, car, bus, rail, ferries, flights or transportation of whatever nature. Interpro does not own, operate or manage any airline, hotel, restaurant, bus, cruise, rail service, lake steamer, ferry, hydrofoil, taxi, museum, facility or attraction. By acceptance of all 23 pages of itinerary, services, features, conditions exclusions plus optional pre or post (where offered) tour packages, tour membership and/or such coupons, voucher, tickets, the participant agrees to the foregoing and also agrees that neither Interpro nor its officers, employees, affiliates or representatives shall be or become liable for loss, damage, accident, injury, death or inconvenience caused by or resulting from malfunction of transportation, equipment, hazard of sea, air or land, disease, local laws, strikes, acts of war, either declared or not, theft, terrorist or criminal activities, imminent threat of hostilities, civil strife, labor disruptions or disturbances, insect bites, climate aberrations, itinerary, quarantines, transfusion, hospitalization, food poisoning or allergic reactions, delays, irregularities, currency fluctuations, schedule changes or cancellations or omissions or defaults of any company or person engaged in conveying the passengers or carrying out the arrangements of this group program, or for personal dissatisfaction with itinerary or accommodation provided, your failure to follow instructions, or for any consequential or incidental damages whatsoever. The passage contract in use by the airlines and other land or sea carriers, when the ticket is issued, shall constitute the sole contract between the airlines or carriers and the purchaser of this group program or passenger. The carriers, hotels, bus companies, guides, restaurants and other suppliers providing tour services are independent contractors and not agents, employees or servants of, or joint venturers with Interpro or its affiliates. Interpro reserves the right at its sole discretion to modify itinerary, schedules, conveyances, routings, hotels, rates and or other services as well as to substitute tour group leader(s) or guides or to cancel program should these changes be required by factors out of Interpro’s control. Furthermore, Interpro reserves the right at its sole discretion to decline to accept, to retain as well as to expel any person as member or participant of any tour as circumstances may demand. Tour Operator or Group Leader(s) or Guides are not obligated to delay the tour to wait for, or search for, tour participants who fail to show up at designated meetings, places, meals and times. Such persons will need to catch up with group tour at their own expenses and liabilities. Interpro shall not be responsible for any purchase made by tour members during or outside of the tour, whether or not recommended by the group leader, driver or guide (who are independent contractors). The Group Leader(s) is/are not licensed guides and therefore will not be allowed to lecture while inside churches and museums unless in the presence and with the consent of the licensed guide of the service. All rates for services quoted are based on a minimum number of 30 (thirty) participants for the group program to operate. Should the number of participants to this group tour fall below the minimum number of 30 before the date of May 15, 2024, date of final payment for and finalization of the group program, the program may still be offered but at a higher per-person rate or full refund will be offered to active members.
Note: the optional 6-night extension tour will be operated and accompanied by Interpro if a minimum of 15 participants have applied at the closing date of May 15, 2024. The Optional 6-night extension tour will be open to family and friends of the main program and may apply even without participating in the main pilgrimage program.
All rates as quoted are based on current January 2024 tariffs and current bank retail rates of exchange and are, therefore, subject to modification and change. Consequently, if necessary, the final cost of the Main and Optional post-group extension will be adjusted at time of closing date of the programs, May 15, 2024 and final payment will reflect any fluctuations in retail currency exchange.

Before we finalize arrangements for your trip we require that you acknowledge this document. Your signature on the last page of the application will ALSO signify your agreement with the following terms and conditions:
1) Health and Other Hazards: You agree that it is your personal decision to travel, and you are doing so with full knowledge of current travel recommendations and travel restrictions with regards to the risks of COVID-19 and related variants. We assume no responsibility for and shall not be liable for unsafe conditions or health hazards including pandemic or other illnesses. We have no special knowledge of dangers during travel or at destinations. For information related to such dangers, we recommend that you go to the U.S. State Department travel website at: www.travel.state.gov, click on ‘Find International travel information’ and fill-in the name of destination country(ies). For medical and health information we recommend going to the Center for Disease Control website at: www.cdc.gov/travel, then click on ‘Destinations’ and scroll to the name(s) of the destination country(ies).
2) Vaccination Requirements and Other Rules: We have no responsibility for COVID-19 related requirements that travel suppliers and governments may impose from time to time, such as required vaccinations, health affidavit forms, COVID-19 screenings prior to departure, or upon arrival, or prior to return home, face coverings, or quarantines. For the latest COVID-19 government travel regulations, we recommend going to IATA’s (International Air Transport Association) web site at: https://www.iatatravelcentre.com/international -travel-document-news/1580226297.htm. Keep checking because these rules are constantly changing, and we are not responsible for any changes.
3) Financial Conditions of Travel Suppliers: We are not responsible for the acts or omissions of travel suppliers or their failure to adhere to their own schedules, provide services or refunds, financial default, or failure to honor future trip credits. We have not special knowledge regarding the financial conditions of the suppliers and we have no liability for recommending a trip credit in lieu of a refund.
4) Rebooking: If requested, we will assist with obtaining any refunds due or rebooking trips using future credits, but we will charge a non-refundable fee for such services.
5) Insurance: For your protection, we strongly recommend that you purchase trip cancellation and travel accident insurance. Please note that, unless you buy a cancel-for-any-reason policy, most policies have a specific clause stating they do not cover epidemics and pandemics, especially when travel warnings are in place. No representation or description of the insurance made by our staff constitutes a binding assurance or promise about the insurance. You agree to hold us harmless for your election not to purchase travel insurance or for any denial of claim by the travel insurer as it relates to COVID-19 or any other claim under the policy. FYI: Medicare coverage is only valid within the United States.
6) Release: You hereby expressly assume all of the risks and dangers covered in paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 above, and you hereby expressly agree to forever release, discharge and hold us, and our agents, employees, officers, directors, associates, affiliated companies, guides, group leaders and subcontractors harmless against any and all liability, actions, causes of actions, suits, claims, and demands of any and every kind and nature whatsoever which you now have or which may hereafter arise out of or in connection with these risks and dangers. Your signature on this application indicates your full understanding and complete acceptance also of this COVID-19 and related Disclaimer and Release.
