Itinerary variations
The tours are planned a year in advance. Between planning time and the actual tour operation Alandic Tours constantly strives to improve the itinerary. During local or national holidays, certain features, such as museums and shopping may be limited or unavailable. In such instances, and whenever possible, itinerary adjustments and substitutions are made to minimize inconveniences. Modifications in the day-by-day itinerary may occur, due to the local conditions and/or operational difficulties beyond our control. Also, should it be necessary we reserve the right to substitute accommodations, activities, meals, etc., with those of equal or better value, with no further obligations.
We reserve the right to change the itinerary due to weather conditions and other unforeseen events or if Alandic Tours deems it necessary for the convenience and safety of the participants.
