Hi

delicious

Claire!

of the world Tasting local cuisine is a highlight of any holiday - sharing it with others is even better! That’s why all our tours begin with a welcome drink or dinner and include plenty of meals, bringing you the best in local flavours. In some destinations, you’ll even be able to rustle up a recipe yourself, with a bit of expert help of course! Look out for the Local Flavours icon on all of our tours.

We are honoured that Claire Sweeney, the actress, singer and presenter, is our Travel Ambassador. Here Claire tells us all about her recent trip to Tuscany.

GEORGIAN CUISINE

I

went to a wedding in Tuscany not long ago and it left me itching to explore more, so I jumped at the chance to go with Just You! I joined their Highlights of Tuscany tour in September 2019 and had a fantastic holiday. What I love about Just You is that everything is organised for you and you can just relax knowing everything is taken care of. Our Tour Manager, Sandra, was there with us for the whole trip, and her local knowledge was brilliant, having lived in Italy for the past 16 years. We had a great group for the week, with a real mix of ages and experience. Some had travelled with Just You many times, while others were first-time travellers. One of the ladies had her birthday the day we visited a local Tuscan vineyard and restaurant. The whole restaurant sang happy birthday to her and it was great to experience together.

Georgian cuisine can be fascinating learn how to make traditional bread, dumplings and candle shaped sweets, all washed down with local wine. There were so many highlights on the trip, but for me it had to be visiting Pisa. I went once back in the nineties, but the Leaning Tower was undergoing repairs, so it was fantastic to go back and see it and explore the surrounding buildings too.

I had another fantastic trip exploring Tuscany with Just You. My advice? if you want to travel solo, just go! I hadn’t realised there was much to see there apart from the tower when I went the first time, but with the Local Guide’s knowledge we got to see so much more than I would have done going alone.

There were plenty of opportunities to do your own thing during the trip. We were staying in the beautiful town of Montecatini Terme, and during our free time people spent time relaxing, shopping or exploring the local restaurants. I found a beautiful seafood restaurant which I enjoyed so much, I took some of the group there again the next night! I like to try the local cuisine when I’m on holiday, and the food in Tuscany did not disappoint. A highlight for me was discovering a food hall in Florence that was full of so many different flavours. I tried a roasted chicken that had been cooked on a traditional spit, it was delicious. I had another fantastic trip exploring Tuscany with Just You. My advice? If you want to travel solo, just go!

DAY 1 PENRITH

Make your own way to your hotel in the lovely Cumbrian market town of Penrith, which is located just three miles from the Lake District National Park. On arrival, your Tour Manager will be waiting to greet you and assist your check in.

We’ll meet up this morning after a hearty breakfast to set us up for a day of walking. We’re heading to Derwentwater, one of the Lake District’s main bodies of water, covering about eight miles along the Cumbrian Way from the village of Rosthwaite to Keswick.

Please note: We’ll walk at a manageable pace, and all the walks can be shortened if you wish. Most walks take place on paths and tracks. Some will be slightly more strenuous and may involve moderate slopes, hills, steps, stiles and foot bridges, which may be rough underfoot. Sturdy walking shoes are essential.

30

We’ll enjoy plenty of rest stops as we go and take in some stunning views. These become even more breathtaking once we arrive at the shores of the lake, which is surrounded by wooded hills. About three miles long and one mile wide, the lake is fed by the River Derwent and is home to several small islands. Just one is inhabited and that’s Derwent Isle, which is home to an 18th century tenanted residence owned by the National Trust. Another, St Herbert’s Island, features in Beatrix Potter’s Squirrel Nutkin story as Owl Island. This is a great spot in which to sit and eat our packed lunch. We’ll then carry on walking, reaching our final destination, the delightful town of Keswick. We’ll travel back to the hotel by coach, where we’ll gather for dinner and a relaxed evening. (B,L,D) DAY 3 LAKE GRASMERE & RYDAL WATER Circular walk 9 km/5.5 mi - 3.5 hours

Once again, start the day with a good breakfast before we head out for a walk covering about fiveand-a-half miles to Lake Grasmere and the smaller Rydal Water. These two destinations are linked to the poet William Wordsworth, who lived in the villages of Grasmere and Rydal in 1799 and 1813 respectively.

Lake Grasmere, Lake District

We’ll pass the Wordsworth Museum and see Rydal Mount, the charming house where he lived until his death in 1850, and which remains in the Wordsworth family. A packed lunch will keep us going as we then walk to the shores of Lake Grasmere to take in beautiful views. Our walk ends in the village of Grasmere, where you might choose to head to St Oswald’s Church, one of the most visited literary shrines in the world. We’ll also visit Sarah Nelson’s Grasmere Gingerbread shop, within the churchyard, it comes highly recommended! (B,L,D)

Our starting point is the town of Rothbury, with the impressive Cragside House, Gardens and Estate nearby. We’ll take a path along the River Coquet, and at Great Tossen we’ll pass the remains of an ancient defensive tower. As we stroll through Rothbury Forest to the Simonside Hills, keep a lookout for rare red squirrels.

Our starting point is Walltown, a beauty spot featuring tall crags, woodland, meadows and lakes. We’ll follow the wall eastwards walking past Cawfields, where we’ll see one of the highest standing sections, which features turrets along its length. Later, after we’ve stopped to eat our packed lunch, we’ll pass the popular landmark known as the Sycamore Gap. This lone tree standing in a dip in Hadrian’s Wall offers a striking view, so we’ll pause to admire what is one of the most photographed spots in the area.

WALKING IN THE LAKE DISTRICT

Please note: We’ll walk at a manageable pace, and all of the walks can be shortened, if you wish. Most walks take place on paths and tracks. Some will be slightly more strenuous and may involve moderate slopes, hills, stiles and foot bridges, which may be rough underfoot. Sturdy walking shoes are essential.

Our walk along the hills offers spectacular 360degree views of the Cheviot Hills and the North Sea coastline. The area also teems with wildlife, so you might see curlew, wild goats and red grouse. Our route then takes us past the ruins of an Iron Age hill fort and mysterious rock art, believed to have been carved more than 5,000 years ago. We’ll see Sharps Folly, a Grade II-listed building erected in the 1700s, as we make our way back to Rothbury. There’s free time here before we head back to the hotel, so why not head off to explore. (B,L,D) DAY 3 THE HOLY ISLAND OF LINDISFARNE Walk 11 km/7 mi - 4 hours

​You’ll need your wellies for part of today as we head off on a truly unique walk. We’re going to leave the mainland and cross to the unspoilt Holy Island of Lindisfarne, which was one of the most important centres of early Christianity. This tidal island is accessed via a paved causeway, which is flooded by the North Sea twice a day. We’ll follow the ancient route known as the Pilgrims’ Way to the island, and

Lindisfarne Castle

then our circular walk takes us around the coast. We’ll pass the remains of a Norman priory and the 16th century Lindisfarne Castle, built high on a volcanic mound in the 1500s to thwart invasion by the Scots. The views from here are simply breathtaking, so we’ll stay a while to take them in. Behind the castle, we’ll see well-preserved 19th century lime kilns, and as we go we’ll keep an eye out for wildlife. Many types of seabird can be seen on the island, including oystercatchers, ringed plovers and redshanks. If we’re really lucky, we might spot Atlantic grey seals along the coastline.

We’ve another walk ahead of us, so the best way to start the day is with a good breakfast at the hotel. In 1932, a group of walkers trespassed on land as they walked from Hayfield to Kinder Scout in a bid to secure access rights for everyone to open countryside. Known as the Mass Trespass of Kinder Scout, we will follow in the walkers’ footsteps for some of the route, starting in Hayfield, and enjoy this dramatic landscape today.

Both the longer and shorter walks end back in Hayfield, a delightful former mill village, famous as the birthplace of Arthur Lowe. The actor was best known for his role of Captain Mainwaring in the classic comedy ‘Dad’s Army’, and a Blue Plaque marks his former home.

As you walk around the estate, watch out for Chatsworth’s herds of red and fallow deer amongst this tree-studded landscape. At the heart of the Chatsworth community is the lovely village of Edensor, which boasts an eclectic mix of architectural styles, featuring everything from Norman arches to castellated turrets.

This UNESCOlisted building was once a hunting lodge, a seat of government and a symbol of the power of the French monarchy. The huge honey-coloured palace was built in the 17th century during the reign of Louis XIV, and at the same time the magnificent gardens were created by landscape artist André le Nôtre.

Monet’s Garden

DAY 3 GIVERNY​

It is said that the history of France is written in her gardens, and this is reflected in the many different horticultural styles found across the country. Particularly delightful are the gardens of the famous French Impressionist Claude Monet in Giverny. He planted and painted here from 1883 until his death in 1926, gaining inspiration from the natural beauty that surrounded him. Explore the artist’s flower garden, Clos Normand, as well as the Japanese-style water garden. These two areas are a beautiful contrast to one another, yet are equally wonderful to explore.

The most famous feature is the lily pond, from which Monet gained so much inspiration, and his series of water-lily paintings is revered throughout the world. As you stroll through the enchanting gardens don’t miss the exquisite wisteria-covered Japanese bridge - it too is depicted in many of Monet’s greatest works of art. In the evening, we will gather as a group to enjoy a farewell drink.​ (B) DAY 4 PARIS - UK​

DAY 1 UK - REYKJAVIK

​​​Just You’s Private Chauffeur Service will collect you from your home for your flight to Reykjavik today. On arrival, we will transfer you to your hotel where you’ll stay for four nights. This evening, after you’ve settled into you room, get to know your fellow travellers as you join them for a welcome drink before dinner in the hotel’s restaurant. Reykjavik is Iceland’s vibrant capital. It boasts some intriguing buildings and a lively cultural scene with plenty of cosy cafés, galleries and museums. What’s more, Iceland provides some of the best Northern Lights viewing conditions in the world, so if you’re lucky you may see this natural phenomenon at some point during your holiday. It is also a destination that boasts an abundance of spectacular wildlife – there’s a chance you might spot a whale from the shore, or see seabirds which nest along the coastline.​(D) DAY 2 REYKJAVIK

​​We’ll discover Reykjavik’s highlights on a city tour this morning. A Local Guide will show us the main sights including the fishing harbour, Parliament buildings and The Pearl. This afternoon is free for you to explore at your own pace. You could perhaps head out with your travelling companions and visit the Settlement Exhibition. Here, the remains of a 10th century Viking longhouse are on display, along with other artefacts from the Viking age. There’s also the opportunity to join an optional whale-watching cruise later this afternoon. This unmissable adventure gives you the opportunity to see these incredible creatures in their natural environment although sightings can never be guaranteed. This evening, we’ll gather as a group to enjoy a traditional Icelandic dinner at Potturinn og Pannan (Pot and Pan Restaurant). Enjoy delicious cuisine derived from Icelandic cultural heritage and local culinary traditions, including a mix of Icelandic starters and the iconic lobster sauce, as well as skyr cake served with blueberry jam and white chocolate.

You can also linger beneath the lagoon’s man-made waterfall, which is said to ease tension in stiff muscles. Other amenities include a sauna and steam baths which are carved into the lava rock, and a relaxation area where you can take breaks from the water as you laze in comfortable chairs, listen to music and take in the amazing views out over the lagoon. The relaxed theme continues with an afternoon at leisure. Perhaps take some time to enjoy the facilities at your hotel, or head out with your travelling companions to explore a little further.

Wander Bukhara’s historic walls to see the city’s towers and minarets from above, before stopping for lunch.

As a result, it has an eclectic culture and fascinating mix of architectural styles, which we’ll explore in detail. After admiring attractions like the huge Siab bazaar and the mix of intricately tiled mausoleums, we’ll embark on a wine-tasting tour at the Hovrenko Wine Factory.

HOTEL ACCOMMODATION

RUNNING ORDER OF ITINERARIES

The prices in our brochure/website are based on sole occupancy of a room with private facilities unless otherwise stated. Our reference to ‘Hotel’ covers all accommodation and does not necessarily distinguish between local classifications such as ‘Motel’ or ‘Inn’. It may occasionally be necessary to accommodate you in a different but equal category of hotel to that featured in the brochure/ website. If this is known before departure and is a significant change to the confirmed arrangements, we will of course advise you. The confirmed hotel(s) will be advised in your final travel information.

Occasionally we may have to make changes to the running order and inclusions of your holiday itinerary.

Porterage: One bag per person is included on most of our package holidays as stated in the holiday details.

This offer is combinable with other offers. The additional £50 per person will be applied to the second and subsequent holiday(s) and will not be transferable should you cancel, unless you are re-booking on the same day. Normal cancellation penalties apply. This offer is for new bookings only and cannot be applied retrospectively.

Regular comfort stops will be taken to ensure a relaxing journey is experienced each day. Some coaches may be equipped with washroom facilities however, it cannot be guaranteed that they will be useable at all times. Our customers health, safety and well-being is of paramount importance and customers are required to adhere to all Health and Safety requirements and guidelines. Please note that these may vary from country to country.

Voltage/Electrical Items: The type of plug sockets you can use in your destination can be checked by visiting: www.worldstandards.eu/electricity/plugvoltage-by-country/ Swimming Pools: If your hotel/s has a swimming pool, you may wish to take your own pool towel, as some hotels do not provide these. Please familiarise yourself with the depth of the pool and use the steps provided to access and exit the pool. Diving is not recommended. Additional Charges: Payment for any extras such as drinks, laundry, telephone calls and meals other than those included in your package holiday price are to be made directly to your hotel prior to check out. On occasion noise from works in the local vicinity of your hotel may occur and these can be unavoidable and unknown to ourselves. We make every effort to ensure your hotel stay is free from disturbance, however these may be out of our control. In addition, unrelated events and local activities may also be taking place. If you do have a complaint at your hotel, or indeed any other service, you must inform your Tour Manager or the hotel direct who will try and resolve the matter as soon as possible. Air Conditioning: In some hotels, air conditioning is operated according to individual hotel policy and/or, in some cases, local laws. OPTIONAL EXPERIENCES/EXCURSIONS We want to give you the opportunity to see as much as possible of the countries you are visiting so there will nearly always be a selection of optional excursions. Where a pre-bookable package is available as indicated in the holiday details, this is offered at a discounted price. Alternatively you can book & pay your Tour Manager or Local Guide in resort, where applicable. Any optional excursions will of course operate subject to demand, traffic and weather conditions. Changes to the advertised excursions programmes are rare but the excursion providers reserve the right to change excursions and we reserve the right to amend the advertised prices at any time. We advise against the purchase of excursions from hotels or street vendors as these may not have been safety checked and may not meet required local standards or have adequate insurance cover in place. A list of approved excursions will be sent to you, in some cases these may include hotel excursions which have been checked. If you choose to partake in an excursion/ activity which is not arranged by us, we advise you check that your travel insurance covers you for that specific activity. MAXIMUM GROUP SIZE Where we display a “Maximum Group Size” icon, the number given will be the maximum expected group size for the tour. Where this may differ is for the ‘Discover More’ modular tours. We have designed and contracted this holiday with the maximum

number of customers in mind and expect and aim to operate to this level. Under exceptional operational conditions, including force majeure, the expected group size may require to be exceeded. This Maximum Group Size is therefore not a condition of booking, though we will use best endeavours to ensure these stated group sizes are adhered to. ABOUT OUR FLIGHTS FOR JUST YOU FLIGHT INCLUSIVE TOURS The prices for the Flight-Inclusive Tours set out in our brochures/website are based on planned group flights from London. The actual selling price may vary from that published due to numerous factors including but not limited to; additional taxes or fuel surcharges being introduced, the airline only allowing us to hold a limited number of seats at a pre agreed group rate or because alternative flights are being used. Limited availability seats: Holiday prices are based on limited availability special air fares. Whilst these fares are correct at the time of going to press they may have sold out by the time you make a booking. In this case further seats will usually be available at a supplement. Such supplements if any will be confirmed at the time of booking. By booking early you maximise your chances of getting on our group flights which ensures you are getting the benefit of our group costs and also reduces the chance of you ever having to pay any flight related supplements or additional costs. Baggage Handling and Allowance: The baggage allowance for all our holidays is one piece of luggage/suitcase – with the dimensions of 76cm x 58cm x 25cm (30” x 23” x 10”) maximum weight of 44lb (20kg) per person, plus one standard piece of hand luggage. Irrespective of individual airline allowances the above limits apply. They are set taking account of our wider operational requirements including ground transportations, porterage, etc. To avoid any problems with our transportation providers, possible delays and inconvenience to you and your fellow travellers, please ensure these maximum baggage conditions are adhered to. You are responsible for the carriage and care of your luggage throughout your holiday except for such times as it may be in the hands of the airline, here in such circumstances the airline specific terms and conditions relating to the carriage of luggage apply or when porterage at a hotel on arrival and departure is included. We will not be held responsible for any delays and/or additional costs arising from any breach of the above luggage allowances. Airport Taxes: Any airport taxes and security charges which are payable in advance and therefore form part of the scheduled air ticket have been calculated and included in the price of your holiday. These include the UK Government Airline Passenger Duty and various overseas airport and airline charges where applicable. At some airports there are also passenger charges

Essential

which are payable locally. Where possible these will be paid by us on your behalf and included on your confirmation invoice. Some taxes have to be paid locally and we will advise you as soon as we are aware of such charges.

Fuel Surcharges/Environmental Taxes: Airlines generally pass on any fuel price increases to customers directly or tour operators when they occur. Occasionally we have no choice but to pass on all or part of these directly to our customers. You will be informed of any fuel related surcharges or new and additional taxes, airport or security charges in place or other sums payable in addition to the advertised price at the time of booking. Flight Routings: On some routes we use a number of indirect flights which may require you to change planes en-route. This may be because we cannot obtain a block allocation of seats on a direct flight or it may be the only option. If you are interested in booking a direct flight with a supplement (where available) please ask one of our Holiday Advisors. Flight Schedule Changes: When you book one of our Flight-Inclusive Tours, your holiday confirmation will contain provisional flight details. We aim to make this as accurate as possible from the start, however, the timings or the flight numbers can change before departure. We will monitor all changes and inform you as soon as possible if there is a change which affects your departure by a considerable time or moves the tour to a different day or significantly affects the tour itinerary. Final timings will be sent about ten days before you travel. If we notify you of a significant change to your holiday and you do not accept the change you must tell us within 14 days of us advising you of the significant change to your holiday. Details of what constitutes a major or minor change is contained within Booking Conditions. Airlines and Aircraft: All prices in our brochures/ on the website are based on air travel in economy class. Passenger travel on scheduled airlines is provided under the conditions of the airline. For a copy of these terms and conditions please go to the appropriate airline’s website. Change of Airline: Due to the ever changing nature of the airline business, airlines selected and used for our tours can change after your booking is made, as can flight schedules and timings. This can be for a number of reasons such as the airline withdrawing the flight or operating with smaller aircraft than first planned. Where this is the case we will endeavour to find an alternative with the same carrier or similar flights with another carrier. Flight Meals and Medical Equipment Requests: Although meals are provided on most long haul flights you should be aware that most airlines do not provide complimentary food on shorter flights within Europe. We therefore cannot guarantee that meals will be provided on all flights. Please note, we also cannot guarantee that the airline will be

INFORMATION

able to fulfil your request for a special dietary meal and any such requests are not a condition of booking. If you require a special dietary meal due to an allergy such as a nut allergy, and the airline provides complimentary meals, we will need you to fill in a medical questionnaire to send to the service provider. The airline will not be able to guarantee that their aircraft meals are 100% nut free and will require you to carry any special medication (such as an EpiPen) in your hand luggage. If you need to carry a CPAP machine or oxygen cylinders please let us know at the time of booking so we can ensure this request is sent through to the relevant airline. It can take up to 6 weeks for airlines to confirm whether medical requests can be accommodated. Seat Requests (Airlines & Trains): We strongly recommend (particularly if you are flying economy class) that you check in early if you have particular seat requests. Just You has no control over the allocation of seats by the airline. Even if a request has been made to pre-book seats, no guarantee can be made that they will be available on departure. The provision of particular seats does not constitute a term of your contract with us. Please note, suppliers operate older and more modern aircraft within their fleets and we cannot guarantee which type you will travel on as this may be subject to change and general availability. Although some airline/train companies offer the ability to book seats on line this may not be the case when booking a holiday through us, as we offer holidays based on special tour operator fares and booking conditions. If this is particularly important to you then please ask about our upgrade options. Transfers: Where your flight inclusive holiday includes scheduled transfers from the destination/ departure airport to/from your hotel, these are all based on group transfers and operate at specified times designed around our brochured flights. These transfer times may be adjusted due to airline flight schedule changes. If for any reason flight times change due to delay or cancellation that cause you to miss the scheduled transfers, alternative arrangements will be made for you. HOLIDAYS BY RAIL Where your holiday includes rail travel, Standard Class fares are included unless otherwise stated. Please note: we are unable to provide porterage at stations and you will be required to handle your own luggage. You can choose to upgrade your seats on Eurostar to Standard Class Premier. This upgrade also includes first-class tickets for the remainder of your journey aboard local trains, where applicable. SMOKING E-cigarettes: Since their introduction, a number of countries have banned or limited the use of

OUR GUARANTEES TO YOU PRICE MATCH If you find an identical package holiday offered by one of our competitors (excluding any online special offers or arrangements made by yourself rather than through a tour operator) at a lower price within 7 days of booking with us our ‘price match’ will apply.

Routes offered are selected and limited to those enabling a smooth transition to the Tours Principal Flight.

INFORMATION

e-cigarettes. We recommend you visit this website, which is an information forum for further information: www.ecigarette-politics.com/electronic-cigarettesglobal-legal-status. BOOKING ADDITIONAL EXTRAS FOR YOUR HOLIDAY It is advisable to leave booking travel arrangements to your UK departure point until you have received your final travel documents as timings can change. We can book non-flight arrangements for you and offer the option of cancellation/amendment insurance. Please speak to our Holiday Advisors for more information. HEALTH, SAFETY AND WELL-BEING Walking on Tour: We are happy to give you more detailed information to enable you to choose the right holiday for your individual needs. Our tours can have a comprehensive sightseeing element, visiting places with cobbled streets, inclines and including medium to long walking distances. This can make navigating these streets or keeping up with the group difficult for anyone with reduced mobility, especially in warm climates. It is important to be aware of the amount of walking involved and the degree of fitness and mobility required to take part in these sightseeing visits or excursions. Tours described as ‘Active’ are not suitable for anyone with any limited or mobility issues. If you would like further information to allow you to make a more informed choice please speak to one of our Holiday Advisors. Altitude: On certain tours you will travel to places at high altitude. If you suffer from heart or respiratory conditions or have any other concerns please consult your doctor. Prescribed Medication: Carry all prescribed medication in your hand luggage. Safety: Although we take every precaution to look after you on tour the responsibility for your personal safety and welfare and the care of your possessions is obviously the same as that which you would exercise whilst at home. It is advisable to avoid carrying your

passports/extra cash/credit cards etc. during day to day activities unless required. Whenever possible leave valuables in your hotel safe. Extra care should be taken when walking around cities, especially at night and we recommend that you stay in well lit, populated areas. It is also wise to avoid carrying valuables or wearing expensive jewellery. Please review the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office advice on safety and security for your destination: www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice. The Tour Manager/ Guide will be on hand to provide any local notifications. For further information on staying safe overseas, please visit: www.travelhealthpro.org.uk/personal-safety/ Age restriction: You must be 18 years or over to travel on a Just You holiday. PASSPORT INFORMATION AND ENTRY REQUIREMENTS Passport information: You must ensure that you have a valid passport. All costs incurred in obtaining such documentation must be paid by you. Some countries don’t allow you to enter with certain country stamps. For further information please visit www.fco.gov.uk. If you are not currently in possession of a valid passport please make sure you leave plenty of time before your holiday to apply for this document. Our recommendation is that you should apply for one at least three months before your holiday. The UK Passport Service has to confirm your identity before issuing your first passport and will ask you to attend an interview in order to do this. For further information visit www.fco.gov.uk. Check the date that your passport expires. When travelling to the EU, the UK Government recommends that you have 6 months left on your passport on the date of your arrival to an EU country. You should also check when your passport was renewed. If you renewed a 10 year adult passport before it expired, extra months may have been added to your passport’s expiry date. These extra months over 10 years will not count towards the 6 months

BOOKING TERMS & CONDITIONS that must be remaining. The UK Government has published a website tool to check the validity of your passport under these new rules www.passport. service.gov.uk/check-a-passport. Note: In many countries, it is now a legal requirement to show some form of identification if requested by the police or authorities, therefore, it is advisable to carry a photocopy of the data page of your passport when out and about. It is your responsibility to ensure that you understand and adhere to all entry requirements for the countries you’re visiting (and what’s required upon your return to the UK). We have partnered with Sherpa, on-line self service industry experts who can guide you with extensive information around Visas and Travel restrictions to ensure that you have right travel documentation and all the up-to-date travel requirements that will ensure you have the best holiday experience.

We recommend that you check the information regularly, along with the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office in order to familiarise yourself with any requirements.

This comprehensive service will ensure you have a worry free and stress free holiday. You can purchase your visa or check your Travel Requirements on the tour page on our website. EUROPEAN HEALTH INSURANCE CARD The European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) or Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC) allows any EU Citizen to access state medical care when they are travelling in another EU Country. For most people, the UK GHIC replaces the existing EHIC for new applications. You should make sure, and it is a requirement of booking, that you have appropriate travel insurance.

MEDICAL QUESTIONNAIRE It is a requirement of the terms and conditions that you complete a medical questionnaire as required to assist Just You to ensure it complies with national and local regulations regarding public health. Failure to complete a questionnaire if required in the stipulated time frames may jeopardise your ability to travel. In these circumstances if your are denied or unable to travel due to non compliance normal cancellation terms and conditions will apply as contained within these terms and conditions. PUBLIC HOLIDAYS Experiencing a public holiday in your chosen destination can really enhance your holiday experience, especially if there are local festivals or celebrations. Virtually all countries have public holidays, religious or otherwise. The festivities may temporarily disrupt your package holiday and some religious holidays such as Ramadan, which is observed in many Muslim countries, may result in a reduction of facilities, services and entertainment. We suggest that you take this into consideration when selecting your departure date. To discover the national holidays in your destination, please visit: www.timeanddate.com/holidays/ WEATHER World weather is becoming more erratic and unpredictable and we cannot be held responsible for disruption to your package holiday or any other holiday arrangement due to bad or unusual weather conditions. BROCHURE/WEBSITE DETAILS We have taken great care to ensure that the details in the brochure/website are correct at the time of their publication. Please bear in mind however that the availability of certain services may vary particularly outside high season periods. This may be for a variety of reasons, for example, lifts need servicing, swimming pools must be cleaned and outdoor amenities such as chair lifts and cable cars can be affected by weather or lack of demand.

Should you see your holiday departure date advertised by us, on a like by like basis, for less than you paid we will refund the difference between the price you paid and the new price. This refund will be in the form of a voucher towards a new booking. This price promise excludes bookings for holidays departing within 12 weeks of booking which are classed as late bookings. Before you have confirmed your booking and paid in full, we reserve the right to amend the price of unsold holidays at any time and correct errors in the prices of confirmed holidays. Should the price of your holiday go down solely due to: (i) T he price of the carriage of passengers resulting from the cost of fuel or other power sources; (ii) T he level of taxes or fees applicable to the holiday imposed by third parties not directly involved in the performance of the holiday, including tourist taxes, landing taxes or embarkation or disembarkation fees at ports and airports; or (iii) T he exchange rates relevant to the package then any refund due will be paid to you less an administrative fee of GBP£50 or EUR€50, based on the currency of your booking. However please note that travel arrangements are not always purchased in local currency and some apparent changes have no impact on the price of your travel due to contractual and other protection in place. There will be no change made to the price of your confirmed holiday within 20 days of your departure nor will refunds be paid during this period. 5. JURISDICTION AND APPLICABLE LAW These Booking Terms and Conditions and any agreement to which they apply are governed in all respects by English law. We both agree that any dispute, claim or other matter which arises between us out of or in connection with your contract or booking will be dealt with by the Courts of England and Wales only.

BOOKING TERMS & CONDITIONS Applicable from September 2021 These Booking Terms and Conditions, together with our Privacy Policy and, where your holiday is booked via our website, our website terms and conditions of use, together with any other written information we brought to your attention before we confirmed your booking, form the basis of your contract with G Touring Limited trading as Just You, whose registered office is at Office 202, Harborough Grow-on-Centre, Compass Point Business Park, Northampton Road, Market Harborough, LE16 9HW. Company No: 04956006. Please read them carefully as they set out our respective rights and obligations. In these Booking Conditions references to “you” and “your” include the first named person on the booking and all persons on whose behalf a booking is made or any other person to whom a booking is added or transferred. By making a booking you agree that: a. you have read and understood these terms and conditions and has the authority to and does agree to be bound by them; b. y ou are over 18 years of age and where placing an order for services with age restrictions declares that you are of the appropriate age to purchase those services; c. y ou consent to our use of information in accordance with our Privacy Policy (https://www. justyou.co.uk/information/privacy-policy/) and you are authorised on behalf of all participants in your party to disclose their personal details to us, including where applicable, special categories of data (such as information on health conditions or disabilities and dietary requirements); d. you accept financial responsibility for payment of the booking on behalf of all persons detailed on the booking. 1. BOOKING AND PAYING FOR YOUR ARRANGEMENTS A booking is made with us when you pay us a deposit (or full payment if you are booking within 84 days of departure) and we issue you with a booking confirmation. We reserve the right to return your payment and decline to issue a confirmation at our absolute discretion. A binding contract will come into

126

existence between you and us as soon as we have issued you with a booking confirmation. If your confirmed arrangements include a flight, we (or if you booked via an authorised agent of ours, that agent) will also issue you with an ATOL Certificate. Upon receipt, if you believe that any details on the ATOL Certificate or booking confirmation or any other document are wrong you must advise us immediately as changes cannot be made later and it may harm your rights if we are not notified of any inaccuracies in any document within ten days of our sending it out (five days for tickets). If your confirmed arrangements booked through Just You do not include a flight, we provide financial security for holiday arrangements booked through us by way of a financial failure insurance policy. You will be given full details of the insurer with your confirmation invoice or, alternatively, please go to www.justyou.co.uk/information/financial-protectioninsurance/ The balance of the cost of your arrangements (including any applicable surcharge) is due not less than 84 days prior to scheduled departure (or by such other date as is notified to you at the time of booking). If we do not receive this balance in full and on time, we reserve the right to treat your booking as cancelled by you in which case the cancellation charges set out in clause 8 below will become payable. Any money paid to an authorised agent of ours in respect of a booking covered by our ATOL is held by that agent on behalf of and for the benefit of the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust at all times, but subject to the agent’s obligation to pay it to us for so long as we do not fail financially. If we do fail financially, any money held at that time by the agent or subsequently accepted from the consumer by the agent, is and continues to be held by that agent on behalf of and for the benefit of the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust without any obligation to pay that money to us. Special Sales: If there are services that you request from us in addition to one of our packages (such as a connecting flight, flight upgrade or additional services) these will be put on request by our Sales Team and are subject to availability and confirmation of the price. Our team will advise you of this, take the appropriate deposit (or full payment

for a flight upgrade) and send you a holding letter together with an ATOL Certificate. Once the additional service is confirmed we will advise you and if your international flight details have changed, send a revised ATOL Certificate to you. Please note: Flights with Low Cost airlines, flight upgrades and flights with restrictive ticketing conditions – where you ask us to book flights for you with a Low Cost airline, to upgrade your flight seat from that included in the package or to book flights with some airlines that may have restrictive ticketing deadlines we may ask you to pay the full airfare and any associated charges at the point of booking. This is in addition to the normal deposit payable on the holiday. If the flight has restrictive ticketing deadlines it may mean that the ticket has to be issued before you have paid the balance for the holiday and specific cancellation charges may apply which increase the usual cancellation charges. Please refer to 8) If You Cancel Before Departure. Booking on behalf of others: By booking on behalf of other participants, you are deemed to be the designated contact person for every participant included on that booking. This means that you are responsible for making all payments due in connection with your booking, notifying us or our authorized agent if any changes or cancellations are required and keeping your party informed. By booking on behalf of another person or persons, you represent and warrant that you have obtained all required consents. You are responsible for verifying that any information you provide on behalf of another participant is complete and accurate and we will under no circumstances be liable for any errors or omissions in the information provided to complete a booking. 2. ACCURACY We endeavour to ensure that all the information and prices both on our website and in any advertising material that we publish are accurate, however, occasionally changes and errors occur and we reserve the right to correct prices and other details in such circumstances. You must check the current price and all other details relating to the arrangements that you wish to book before your booking is confirmed. On very rare occasions, we may unfortunately make a genuine mistake in the

TO BOOK CALL 01858 415 452 VISIT JUSTYOU.CO.UK OR CONTACT YOUR LOCAL TRAVEL AGENT

price we quote and subsequently confirm to you for your holiday. This may come to light at any time prior to your holiday. We are not obliged to honour the original price if a mistake has been made when pricing your holiday. We will ask you to meet any additional costs if you wish to go ahead with the holiday. However, should you not wish to meet these additional charges, you may cancel your holiday with a full refund. 3. INSURANCE We consider adequate travel insurance to be essential. It is therefore a condition of booking that you are adequately insured when travelling abroad. We recommend excellent comprehensive insurance policies through our partner Holiday Extras please go to www.travelsphere.co.uk/ insurance. We will require you to give us details of your travel insurance company including the policy number, although we will not check your policy for suitability. If you purchase an alternative policy, you must ensure that it offers cover which is at least as comprehensive as the policy we recommend and, which as a minimum, covers cancellation for the total value of the holiday, delay or curtailment, medical charges and repatriation costs for not less than £5million. Your travel insurance should cover you for any pre-existing medical conditions. You should also ensure you are covered for the curtailment or cancellation of your holiday by us for reasons such as, but not limited to, FCDO advice, Government restrictions or local restrictions, you should ensure you are covered up to the full value of your trip and expenses. We would recommend that your policy should cover you fully for COVID-19 should you need to cancel in advance of travelling, or should you contract it while away. Please read your policy details carefully and take them with you on holiday. It is your responsibility to ensure that the insurance cover you purchase is adequate for your particular needs including cover for any optional excursions/activities that you may have booked. You shall be responsible for indemnifying us in full in respect of any costs that we incur as a result of your failure to have adequate, appropriate and comprehensive travel insurance. We will decline any booking where adequate insurance has not been arranged.

6. CUTTING YOUR HOLIDAY SHORT If you are forced to return home early, we cannot refund the cost of any travel arrangements you have not used. If you cut short your holiday and return home early in circumstances where you have no reasonable cause for complaint about the standard of accommodation and services provided, we will not offer you any refund for that part of your holiday not completed, or be liable for any associated costs you may incur. Depending on the circumstances, your travel insurance may offer cover for curtailment and we suggest that any claim is made directly with them. 7. CHANGES BY YOU BEFORE DEPARTURE If you wish to change any part of your booked arrangements after our confirmation invoice has been issued, you must inform us in writing as soon as possible. Whilst we will do our best to assist, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to meet your requested change. Where we can meet a request, all changes will be subject to payment of an administration fee of £50 per person per change as well as any applicable rate changes or extra costs incurred as well as any costs incurred by ourselves and any costs or charges incurred or imposed by any of our suppliers. You should be aware that these costs could increase the closer to the departure date that changes are made and you should contact us as soon as possible. Where we are unable to assist you and you do not wish to proceed with the original booking we will treat this as a cancellation by you. A cancellation fee may be payable. If you are prevented from travelling it may be possible to transfer your booking to another suitable person provided that written notice is given. An administration fee will be charged, details available upon request. Transfer of Booking: If you are prevented from travelling, you may transfer your place to someone else (introduced by you and satisfying all the conditions applicable to the arrangements) provided: a) you contact us as soon as possible and provide us with the name of the replacement passenger and who they will be replacing from the original booking. We can only transfer customers up to 14 days before departure, subject to availability;

b) you pay an amendment fee of £50 per person transferring, meet all costs and charges incurred by us and/or incurred or imposed by any of our suppliers; and c) the transferee agrees to these Booking Conditions and all other terms of the contract between us. If there are any payments outstanding for the applicable booking when the transfer is requested these must also be paid before the transfer can be made. Any replacement passengers must show us evidence of their holiday insurance prior to the transfer being completed. You and the transferee remain jointly and severally liable for payment of all sums. If you are unable to find a replacement, cancellation charges as set out herein will apply in order to cover our estimated costs. Otherwise, no refunds will be given for passengers not travelling or for unused services. Note: Certain arrangements (such as “Low Cost” flight bookings, flight upgrades, flights with restrictive ticketing deadlines and nonrefundable elements of your booking) may not be amended or transferred after they have been confirmed and any alteration could incur a cancellation charge of up to 100% of that part of the arrangements. 8. IF YOU CANCEL BEFORE DEPARTURE If you decide to cancel your confirmed booking you must notify us (or your travel agent) in writing, as soon as possible. To notify us please send an email to CustomerCancellations@justyou.co.uk or write to us. Any notification by telephone should be to our Service Centre on 01858 415 258 and must be followed up in writing or by email, within 24 hours by the lead name to confirm the cancellation. Your notice of cancellation will only take effect from the date on which we receive it. If the call to notify us of cancellation is from anyone other than the lead name then the lead name must confirm the cancellation in writing or by email within 3 days of the initial call. If you need to cancel your booking within 24 hours of departure please contact the Service Centre or call the number stated on your final documentation. If verbal notification is within 5 days of departure we reserve the right to cancel the booking after 24 hours. Since we incur costs in cancelling your arrangements, you will have to pay the applicable cancellation charges up to the maximum shown below. The cancellation charge detailed is calculated on the basis of the total cost payable by the person(s) cancelling excluding insurance premiums and amendment charges which are not refundable in the event of the person(s) to whom they apply cancelling: Cancellation charges for all Just You holidays except Just You UK City and Just You UK Christmas Market breaks Number of Days’ Cancellation charge Notice Before (% of holiday price): Departure More than 75 days Loss of deposit only before departure 43 - 74 days 50% of tour price 29 - 42 days

Please note that insurance premiums and amendments charges are not refundable in any circumstances. Note: Certain arrangements (such as “Low Cost” flight bookings, flight upgrades, flights with restrictive ticketing deadlines and non-refundable elements of your booking) may not be amended or transferred after they have been confirmed and any alteration could incur a cancellation charge of up to 100% of that part of the arrangements. Where any cancellation reduces the number of full paying party members below the number which the price and/or any concessions agreed for your booking were based, we will recalculate these items and re-invoice you accordingly. If the reason for your cancellation is covered under the terms of your insurance policy, you may be able to reclaim these charges. We will deduct the cancellation charge(s)

from any monies you have already paid to us.

ii. having a refund of all monies paid;

The cancellation charges above have been calculated as a genuine pre-estimate of the losses we would incur in the event you cancelled your holiday within the stipulated time period, taking into account the charges we will incur from our suppliers (some of which will be up to 100%) and the expected cost savings and income from alternative deployment of the travel services (if possible) calculated as an average charge over a period of time.

iii. accepting an offer of alternative travel arrangements of comparable or higher standard if available (at no extra cost); or

Cancellation by You due to Unavoidable & Extraordinary Circumstances: You have the right to cancel your confirmed holiday before departure without paying a cancellation charge in the event of “unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances” occurring at your holiday destination or its immediate vicinity and significantly affecting the performance of the holiday or significantly affecting the transport arrangements to the destination. In these circumstances, we shall provide you with a full refund of the monies you have paid but will not be liable to pay you any additional compensation. Please note that your right to cancel in these circumstances will only apply where the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) has changed its advice to warn against travel to your destination or its immediate vicinity after the date of your booking. For the purposes of this clause, “unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances” means warfare, acts of terrorism, significant risks to human health such as the outbreak of serious disease at the travel destination or natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes or weather conditions which make it impossible to travel safely to the travel destination. 9. IF WE CHANGE OR CANCEL As we plan your holiday arrangements many months in advance we may occasionally have to make changes or cancel your booking and we reserve the right to do so at any time. Changes: If we make an insignificant change to your holiday, we will make reasonable efforts to inform you or your travel agent as soon as reasonably possible if there is time before your departure but we will have no liability to you for failing to inform you or your travel agent. Examples of insignificant changes include alteration of your outward/return flights by less than 12 hours, changes to aircraft type, change of accommodation to another of the same or higher standard, changes of carriers. Please note that carriers such as airlines used in our advertising material may be subject to change. Occasionally we may have to make a significant change to your confirmed arrangements. Examples of “significant changes” include the following, when made before departure: -A change of accommodation area for the whole or a significant part of your time away, provided that the new area is more than 15 miles away from the original. -A change of cabin accommodation to a significantly lesser grade. Where you are taking a tour, a significant change to the itinerary. i.e. when the itinerary has to be changed by more than 50% and may have to exclude an iconic highlight. -A change of accommodation to that of a lower standard or classification for the whole or a significant part of your time away. -A change of outward departure time or overall length of your arrangements of twelve or more hours. -A significant change to your itinerary, missing out one or more destinations entirely. -A change of UK airport from the one you were due to fly to or from, except where the change is between London airports (Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted, London City or Luton) or where the new airport is within 50 miles of the original airport. Please note: We do not classify a change of air or sea port as a significant change where coach transfers between a UK town and the relevant air/ sea port are included in the holiday. A change of flight from direct to indirect is not classified as a significant change. Cancellation: We will not cancel your travel arrangements less than 75 days before your departure date, except for reasons of force majeure or failure by you to pay the final balance. We may cancel your holiday before this date, (if your holiday departure date is not specifically guaranteed in the brochure in which it was advertised) for example, if the minimum number of customers required for a particular travel arrangement is not reached. If we have to make a major change or cancel, we will tell you as soon as possible and if there is time to do so before departure, we will offer you the choice of: i. ( for significant changes) accepting the changed arrangements;

iv. If available, accepting an offer of alternative travel arrangements of a lower or comparable standard from us (we will refund any price difference between the original arrangements and the alternative arrangements if the alternative arrangements are of a lower value). You must notify us of your choice within 7 days of our offer. If we do not hear from you within 7 days, we will contact you again to request notification of your choice. If you fail to respond again within 3 days we will assume that you have chosen to accept the change or alternative booking arrangements. Once a Tour has departed, itinerary changes may be necessary as a result of unforeseen circumstances, operational concerns, or concerns for your health, safety, enjoyment or comfort. Any changes are at our discretion. You acknowledge that you must have reasonable financial resources to cover incidental expenses during all travel with us, whether or not such expenses arise from a change of itinerary, and we are not liable for your failure to prepare adequately for travel and unforeseen circumstances which may arise during travel. We will not be liable for any indirect and or consequential losses associated with any changes to a booking or itinerary. Compensation: If we cancel your booking or make a significant change less than 75 days before departure, in addition to a full refund of all monies paid by you, we will pay you reasonable compensation as detailed below. Period before departure a significant change or cancellation is notified to you More than 75 days before departure 29-74 days

IMPORTANT NOTE: We will not pay you compensation in the following circumstances: - where we make an insignificant change; - where we make a significant change or cancel your arrangements more than 75 days before departure; - where we make a significant change and you accept those changed arrangements or you accept an offer of alternative travel arrangements; - where we have to cancel your arrangements as a result of your failure to make full payment on time; - where the change or cancellation by us arises out of alterations to the confirmed booking requested by you; - where we are forced to cancel or change your arrangements due to Force Majeure (see clause 10). If we become unable to provide a significant proportion of the arrangement that you have booked with us after you have departed, we will, if possible, make alternative arrangement for you at no extra charge and where those alternative arrangements are of a lower standard, provide you with an appropriate price reduction. Please note: where accommodation with a higher price than the original accommodation is offered by us and accepted by you, the difference in price will be deducted from any compensation payable. In no case will we pay compensation if accommodation is offered by us and accepted by you with a higher price than that originally booked in the same location where no additional payment is made by you. If we become unable to provide a significant proportion of the services that you have booked with us after you have departed, we will make alternative arrangements for you at no extra charge and, if appropriate in all the circumstances, will pay you reasonable compensation. Please note: should it become impossible to make alternative arrangements in the circumstances mentioned above, our legal obligation is to return you to the point of departure, where you commenced your booked arrangements with us, only. It will be your responsibility to arrange any onward transport from the point at which you commenced your booked arrangements with us and your home. 10.

BOOKING TERMS & CONDITIONS to curtail your holiday except where otherwise expressly stated in these Terms, we will not be liable or pay you compensation if its contractual obligations to you are affected by “unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances” meaning any event beyond our control, the consequences of which could not have been avoided even if all reasonable measures had been taken. Examples include warfare and acts of terrorism (and threat thereof), civil strife, labour difficulties, interference by authorities, political disturbance, significant risks to human health such as the outbreak of serious disease at the travel destination or natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes or weather conditions or changes in travel guidelines by organisations such as Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO), WHO (World Health Organisation (WHO), Local or national Governments guidelines or regulations which make it impossible to travel safely to the travel destination or remain at the travel destination, the act of any government or other national or local authority including port or river authorities, industrial dispute, lock closure, natural or nuclear disaster, fire, chemical or biological disaster, unavoidable technical problems with transport, closure of airports, ports or airspace or changes of schedules by airlines and all similar events outside our or the supplier(s) concerned control. If your holiday is curtailed due to (not limited to) FCDO Guidance / WHO advice / local or national Government guidance or regulations – due to but not limited to Pandemic.) the Tour Operator will, in accordance with the Package Travel and Linked Travel Arrangements Regulations 2018 and our own Terms and Conditions, provide the traveller with an appropriate refund. The refund will be based on the number of days of the holiday that was missed (based on the total cost of your holiday less the services used, for example flights that were taken, hotel nights that were used and tour days that took place). Brexit Implications: Please note that certain travel arrangements may be affected as a result of the United Kingdom’s decision to leave the European Union. This could include an unavailability of certain flight routes or access to certain ports and airports. Please rest assured that this is something we will continue to monitor and will advise our customers as soon as possible if we become aware of any confirmed bookings that will be affected. However, since this is something which is completely unprecedented and outside our control, we would treat any such changes as Force Majeure, and whilst we will endeavour to provide suitable alternative arrangements or refunds where possible, we will not be liable to pay you any compensation. 11. SPECIAL REQUESTS Any special requests must be advised to us at the time of booking. You should then confirm your requests in writing. Whilst every effort will be made by us to try and arrange your reasonable special requests, we cannot guarantee that they will be fulfilled. The fact that a special request has been noted on your confirmation invoice or any other documentation or that it has been passed on to the supplier is not confirmation that the request will be met. Any special requests or requirements do not form part of these Terms or the contract between us and we are not liable for any failure to accommodate or fulfill such requests. We do not accept bookings that are conditional upon any special request being met. 12. DISABILITIES AND MEDICAL PROBLEMS The Equality Act 2010 This law applies to services provided in the UK and not those provided overseas. However, we believe in trying to make our holidays as accessible to as many people as possible. You must tell us before you book of any special needs you may have as result of any disability or medical condition, whether physical or mental health and we will do all we can to accommodate you. This includes making any reasonable adjustments to the holiday itself and/ or to the booking process. You may be asked to complete a medical information form (the “Medical Form”) or produce a Doctors certificate / letter prior to travel. We will endeavour to respond within 5 working days of receipt of this documentation. If you wish to have this documentation returned please let us know as we only hold this information for your current holiday. This information will be treated confidentially and will only be used to check that you are likely to be sufficiently fit and able to undertake your chosen holiday, and that any special requirements are passed on to our suppliers. If you, or any member of your parties situation changes after you have booked (including where any medical condition or disability deteriorates or develops) you must let us know straight away. Travel with us may involve visiting remote or developing regions,

128

where medical care may not be easily accessible and medical facilities may not meet the standards of those found in the UK. We and our suppliers make no representations and gives no warranties in relation to the availability or standard of medical facilities in those regions. Whilst we will endeavour to make any reasonable adjustments to the holiday itself, sometimes this may not be possible. Examples of where we may not be able to make a reasonable adjustment include: •P roviding wheelchair access ramps to overseas hotels in remote locations; •O ur staff pushing a customer in a wheelchair throughout the duration of the holiday; •P rovision of daily personal care whether for a physical or mental health condition. Please note that personal care cannot be provided by any member of our staff It is your responsibility to tell us before you book whether you have any special requirements, limited mobility or medical conditions either physical or mental health that might affect your ability to take part on our holidays. A reasonable level of fitness is required for our holidays as some walking will be involved. If you are in doubt about the suitability of any of our holidays please just ask but, it is vital that you seek confirmation from your own Doctor to establish that you are sufficiently fit both physically and mentally, to travel and to undertake the excursions that may be required to undertake your tour. Where we can we will make any reasonable adjustments but where we cannot make such adjustments we may have to cancel your booking. It is our intention to make our holidays as accessible to as many people as we can, especially those with disabilities. We cannot do this if you don’t tell us of your needs so please mention any relevant information to us before you book. In particular to establish: i. Any special requirements for air, coach, ferry or cruise ship travel so these are passed on to our suppliers; ii. T hat we are aware whether your mobility may be limited or that you may need assistance on any part of the tour; iii. Whether you are taking medication and might require medical attention during your holiday; iv. Whether there might be any pre-existing medical conditions either physical or mental health that should be disclosed to your insurer (or to the insurer recommended by ourselves) and which could result in your insurance being invalidated. We can recommend a special travel insurance policy for those with existing medical conditions and would recommend that this or a similar policy be purchased prior to travel. It is your responsibility to check your health and fitness to travel with your own Doctor before travel and we would recommend that you seek this confirmation and send us this information. We will endeavour to assist with any special requirements that might be needed and can also advise against certain tours and excursions that might be challenging for a customer with particular medical issues. We have to rely upon your honesty about your medical condition and cannot advise you properly if we are unaware of this. Please contact our Special Services Team at customercare@ justyou.co.uk and we can arrange to advise you of the pre-travel medical clearance that you should clarify with your doctor. We will assume, unless you inform us otherwise, that you are in a good state of health both physically and mentally, to participate in the holiday. If you do not tell us about any disability or medical condition which may affect your holiday arrangements and any resulting special needs, and we find ourselves in the position where you are at your UK departure point or on holiday and are unable to participate fully, then we reserve the right to: 1) Organise extra assistance or make any adjustments so you can continue with the holiday and pass on the costs of doing this to you. 2) Arrange your return to the UK, or to your home address if you haven’t left the UK and pass on the costs of doing this to you. We very much hope that all our customers will be completely open, honest and upfront with us so the above situation does not occur. However, we do reserve the right to take action in the interests of your health and safety and the health and safety of our staff and other customers should we need to. We can only accept your booking upon the clear understanding that we cannot be liable if you do not inform us of such a condition and an airline or cruise line refuses to accept you as a passenger.

The level of such compensation will be calculated taking into consideration all relevant factors such as but not limited to: following the complaints procedure as described in these conditions and the extent to which we or our employees’ or suppliers’ negligence affected the overall enjoyment of your holiday. Please note that it is your responsibility to show that we or our supplier(s) have been negligent if you wish to make a claim against us.

(a) which on the basis of the information given to us by you concerning your booking prior to us accepting it, we could not have foreseen you would suffer or incur if we breached our contract with you; or (b) relate to any business. We will not accept responsibility for services or facilities which do not form part of its agreement or where they are not advertised in our brochure or on our website. For example any excursion you book whilst away, or any service or facility which your hotel or any other supplier agrees to provide for you. Where it is impossible for you to return to your departure point as per the agreed return date of your package, due to “unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances”, we shall provide you with any necessary accommodation (where possible, of a comparable standard) for a period not exceeding three nights per person. Departure point will be the location where you commenced your first travel arrangement booked through Just You as listed on your booking confirmation. Please note that the 3-night cap does not apply to persons with reduced mobility, pregnant women or unaccompanied minors, nor to persons needing specific medical assistance, provided that we have been notified of these particular needs in advance. For the purposes of this clause, “unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances” mean warfare, acts of terrorism, significant risks to human health such as the outbreak of serious disease at the travel destination or natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes or weather conditions which make it impossible to travel safely back to your departure point. 16. YOUR BEHAVIOUR & ACCEPTANCE OF REASONABLE RISKS You acknowledge that travel and the products and services offered by us may involve risk to your health and safety. By travelling with us you acknowledge that you have considered any potential risks to health and safety. To the extent permitted by law, you hereby assume responsibility for all such risk and release us from all claims and causes of action arising from any losses, damages or injuries or death resulting from risks inherent in travel, including visiting foreign destinations, and participating in adventurous activities such as those included in Tour itineraries or otherwise offered by us. You acknowledge that the degree and nature of personal risk involved depends on the products or services booked and the location(s) in which a product or service operates. There may be an increased degree of risk participating in physical

activities, travel to remote locations, carriage by watercraft, or other high-risk activities, or travel to countries with developing infrastructure. You agree that we are not responsible for providing information or guidance with respect of local customs, weather conditions, physical challenges or laws in effect in any locations where a Tour, product or service is operated. You acknowledge you have considered the potential risks, dangers and challenges and your own personal capabilities and needs, and you expressly assume the risks associated with travel under such conditions. You must at all times strictly comply with all applicable laws and regulations of all countries and regions. Should you fail to comply with the above or commit any illegal act when on tour or, if in our opinion (acting reasonably), your behaviour is causing or is likely to cause danger, distress or material annoyance to others, we may terminate your travel arrangements or any product or service immediately at your expense and without any liability on our part. You will not be entitled to any refund for unused or missed services or costs incurred as a result of termination of our travel arrangements, including, without limitation, return travel, accommodations, meals, and incidentals. You are responsible for any costs (including repair, replacement and cleaning fees) incurred by us or our suppliers for property damage, destruction or theft caused by you while on a tour. You agree to immediately report any pre-existing damage to one of our representatives or staff of the accommodation, transportation service, or facility as soon as possible upon discovery. You agree to take all prudent measures in relation to your own safety while on tour including, but not limited to, the proper use of safety devices (including seatbelts, harnesses, floatation devices and helmets) and obeying all posted signs and oral or written warnings regarding health and safety. Neither we nor our third party suppliers are liable for loss or damages caused by your failure to comply with safety instructions or warnings. 17. EXCURSIONS AND LOCAL ACTIVITIES Included Excursions: For all excursions that form part of the advertised arrangements that you have booked, your contract for the excursion will be with ourselves and we will take responsibility for that excursion in accordance with the remainder of these Booking Terms and Conditions. Optional Excursions: Aside from included excursions, optional excursions and activities may be available for you to purchase either before you depart the UK or during your holiday. Occasionally, these are offered for sale by our holiday advisors in the UK or our Tour Managers or representatives overseas. However, we have no involvement in any such excursions or activities which are not run, supervised or controlled in any way by us. Full responsibility for providing and operating the excursion or activity rests with the local operator / provider. Optional excursions or other activities that you may choose to book or pay for whilst you are taking part in your trip are not part of your contracted arrangements with us. Where you make a booking of an optional excursion via us or our Tour Manager, we act solely as a booking agent for the local operator / provider of all such optional excursions and activities with whom you will have a contract. The local operator’s terms and conditions will apply. We are not responsible for the provision of any optional excursions or activities or for anything that happens during the course of its provision by the local operator. We cannot accept any liability on any basis in relation to any optional excursions or activities which do not form part of your contracted arrangements with us. We do not however exclude liability for the negligence of ourselves or our employees resulting in your death or personal injury. A minimum number of people are needed for an optional excursion to operate. If that number is not achieved, the local operator may have to cancel it. If this happens, you will be offered a full refund of the money that you have paid. If the local operator has to cancel and you paid for the excursion overseas your Tour Manager will refund you overseas, on behalf of the local operator. If you pre-booked in the UK before the holiday, the refund will be processed by our head office in the UK, and will be sent to the lead passenger’s home address within 10 working days of your return date to the UK, on behalf of the local operator. If you want to cancel an optional excursion that you have booked, we on behalf of the local operator, are unable to refund the cost of the excursion once it has been paid for. Our Tour Managers are happy to suggest local places of interest to you. However, these are suggestions only and are not recommendations or endorsements and no liability is accepted for any issues that may arise.

18. FINANCIAL SECURITY We provide financial security for flight inclusive Packages and ATOL protected flights. We do this by way of a bond held in favour of the Civil Aviation Authority under ATOL number 11266. When you buy an ATOL protected flight or flight inclusive holiday from us you will receive an ATOL Certificate. This lists what is financially protected, where you can get information on what this means for you and who to contact if things go wrong. For further information, visit the ATOL website at www.atol.org. uk. The price of our flight inclusive arrangements includes the amount of £2.50 per person as part of the ATOL Protection Contribution (APC) we pay to the CAA. This charge is included in our advertised prices. Not all holiday or travel services offered and sold by us will be protected by the ATOL Scheme. ATOL protection extends primarily to Customers who book and pay in the United Kingdom or the first leg of any flight or flights we arrange for you commences in the UK. We, or the suppliers identified on your ATOL Certificate, will provide you with the services listed on the ATOL Certificate (or a suitable alternative). In some cases, where neither we nor the supplier are able to do so for reasons of insolvency, an alternative ATOL holder may provide you with the services you have bought (at no extra cost to you). You agree to accept that in those circumstances the alternative ATOL holder will perform those obligations and you agree to pay any money outstanding to be paid by you under your contract to that alternative ATOL holder. However, you also agree that in some cases it will not be possible to appoint an alternative ATOL holder, in which case you will be entitled to make a claim under the ATOL Scheme (or your credit card issuer where applicable). If we, or the suppliers identified on your ATOL certificate, are unable to provide the services listed (or a suitable alternative, through an alternative ATOL holder or otherwise) for reasons of insolvency, the Trustees of the Air Travel Trust may make a payment to (or confer a benefit on) you under the ATOL scheme. You agree that in return for such a payment or benefit you assign absolutely to those Trustees any claims which you have or may have arising out of or relating to the non-provision of the services, including any claim against us, the travel agent (or your credit card issuer where applicable). You also agree that any such claims may be re-assigned to another body, if that other body has paid sums you have claimed under the ATOL scheme. We provide financial security for holidays not including flights by way of a financial failure insurance policy. You will be given full details of the insurer with your confirmation invoice or, alternatively, please go to www.justyou.co.uk/ financial-protection-insurance. If you book arrangements other than an ATOL protected flight or Package from us, your monies will not be financially protected. Please ask us for further details. For more information about financial protection and the ATOL Certificate go to: www.atol.org.uk/ATOLCertificate or contact Civil Aviation Authority of CAA House, 45-59 Kingsway, London WC2B 6TE. Refunds: If you are eligible for a refund(s) for all or part of your booking, this will be made to the lead passenger on the booking and generally refunded to the same payment method that was used to pay us. In the case of card payments, this will be refunded to the relevant card account. Any fees incurred while making the payment will not be refunded. Refunds will be completed as soon as possible and in line with our Terms and Conditions. 19. PASSPORT, VISA AND IMMIGRATION REQUIREMENTS AND HEALTH FORMALITIES We will provide you with standard information about the passport, visa, health and immigration requirements applicable to your itinerary, but it is your responsibility to confirm that this information is relevant to your individual circumstances. You must check requirements for your own specific circumstances with the relevant Embassies and/ or Consulates and your own doctor as applicable and you are responsible for ensuring that you meet the entry requirements for the destinations listed on your itinerary. We are unable to accept any responsibility if you are unable to travel because you are not granted a visa and relevant cancellation charges will apply. It is your responsibility to ensure that you understand and adhere to all entry requirements for the countries you’re visiting (and what’s required upon your return to the UK).

Travel requirements per country, can change Sherpa is the complete service that will ensure you have all the current information so that you are good to go. We recommend that you check the information regularly, along with the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office in order to familiarise yourself with any requirements. We’re unable to accept any responsibility should you not be able to travel if you have not complied with any passport, entry and immigration requirements. This comprehensive service will ensure you have a worry free and stress free holiday. All your Travel Requirements can be accessed via the tour pages on our website. Requirements do change, and you must check the up to date position in good time before departure so that you have the correct documentation and are adequately vaccinated. Information on health is available from your GP surgery and from the National Travel Health Network and Centre www.travelhealthpro.org.uk Most countries now require passports to be valid for at least 6 months after your return date. When travelling to the EU, the UK Government recommends that you have 6 months left on your passport on the date of your arrival to an EU country. If your passport is in its final year, you should check with the Embassy of the country you are visiting. You should also check when your passport was renewed. If you renewed a 10 year adult passport before it expired, extra months may have been added to your passport’s expiry date. These extra months over 10 years will not count towards the 6 months that must be remaining. The UK Government has published a web site tool to check the validity of your passport under these rules. Please go to https://www.gov.uk/check-apassport-travel-europe. For further information contact the Passport Office on 0300 222 0000 or visit https://www.gov.uk/browse/abroad/ passports. The European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) or the Global Health Insurance Card allows you to access state medical care when they are travelling in another EU Country. Requirements do change and you must check the up to date position in good time before departure so that you have the correct documentation and are adequately vaccinated. Information on health is available from your GP surgery and from the National Travel Health Network and Centre www.travelhealthpro.org.uk We do not wish to mar the prospective enjoyment of your holiday. It is your responsibility to ensure you are aware of up to date travel information and advice for your chosen destination; please review the Foreign Office web site for detailed information www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice. Up to date travel advice can also be obtained from the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, visit www.gov.uk/travelaware. Non British passport holders, including other EU nationals, should obtain up-to-date advice on passport and visa requirements from the Embassy, High Commission or Consulate of your destination or country(ies) through which you are travelling. We do not accept any responsibility if you cannot travel or incur any other loss because you have not complied with any passport, visa, immigration requirements or health formalities. You agree to reimburse us in relation to any fines or other losses which we incur as a result of your failure to comply with any passport, visa, immigration requirements or health formalities. 20. CRUISES River and Ocean Cruise vessels enforce the highest

standards of cleaning and sanitation in order to prevent the spread of viruses and illness. If you experience any gastrointestinal symptoms whilst on board, you may be confined to your cabin until your symptoms are clear. This action is to protect all passengers on board and contain the spread of any virus. In most cases, prior to boarding, you will be asked by the cruise operator / carrier to complete a medical form confirming you are not ill or have not been ill prior to boarding the vessel. You must answer these questions truthfully. If you have experienced any gastrointestinal symptoms prior to boarding your vessel, we on behalf of the cruise operator / carrier reserve the right to ask passengers to produce medical evidence of fitness to travel this may include the submission of any required medical certificates. In the interests of passenger safety we reserve the right to refuse boarding at our discretion. In such circumstances passengers will not be entitled to claim compensation or a refund. In some ports, it may be necessary for the river or cruise vessel to anchor offshore rather than alongside. When this is the case, the cruise line will use a tender to take passengers ashore. A tender is a small vessel and may not be suitable for persons with Disabilities or reduced mobility or balance problems. It is important that passengers are able to use the tender safely. Passengers may be required to descend to a platform or pontoon and into the tender and passengers may need to navigate a gap between the platform and the tender. Depending on weather, tide and sea conditions, there may be some movement and passengers must be fit and mobile enough to access and disembark the tender. If passengers have impaired mobility, or use a mobility aid such as a stick, then they must carefully consider their ability to embark the tender safely. Wheelchairs and mobility equipment will not be carried by the crew or Tour Manager and all passengers must be independently mobile enough to use the tenders. Ultimately, carriage by tender may be refused by the Captain of the river or cruise vessel or any of his officers if there is any doubt as to the safety of any passengers. 21. CONDITIONS OF SUPPLIERS Many of the services which make up your holiday are provided by independent suppliers. Those suppliers provide these services in accordance with their own terms and conditions which will form part of your contract with us. Some of these terms and conditions may limit or exclude the supplier’s liability to you, usually in accordance with applicable International Conventions. Copies of the relevant parts of these terms and conditions are available on request from ourselves or the supplier concerned. 22. PROMPT ASSISTANCE IN RESORT If, whilst you are on holiday, you find yourself in difficulty for any reason, we will offer you such prompt assistance as is appropriate in the circumstances. In particular, we will provide you with appropriate information on health services, local authorities and consular assistance, and assistance with distance communications and finding alternative travel arrangements. Where you require assistance which is not owing to any failure by us, our employees or sub-contractors, we will not be liable for the costs of any alternative travel arrangements or other such assistance you require. Any supplier, airline or other transport supplier may however pay for or provide refreshments and/ or appropriate accommodation and you should make a claim directly to them. Subject to the other terms of these Booking Conditions, we will not be liable for any costs, fees or charges you incur in the above circumstances, if you fail to obtain our prior authorisation before making your own travel arrangements. Furthermore, we reserve the right to charge you a fee for its assistance in the event that the difficulty is caused intentionally by you or

DELAYS, MISSED TRANSPORT ARRANGEMENTS AND OTHER TRAVEL INFORMATION If you miss your flight or other transport arrangement, it is cancelled or you are subject to a delay of over 3 hours for any reason, you must contact us and the airline or other transport supplier concerned immediately. Under EU Law, you have rights in some circumstances to refunds and/or compensation from the airline in cases of denied boarding, cancellation or delay to flights with a European airline or flights operating from a European airport. Full details of these rights will be publicised at EU airports and will also be available from airlines. If the airline does not comply with these rules you should complain to the Civil Aviation Authority at www.caa.co.uk/passengers. Reimbursement in such cases is the responsibility of the airline and will not automatically entitle you to a refund of your holiday price from us. If your holiday arrangements include a flight and, for any reason, you do not claim against the airline and make a claim for compensation from us, you must, at the time of payment of any compensation to you, make a complete assignment to us of the rights you have against the airline in relation to the claim that gives rise to that compensation payment. A delay or cancellation to your flight does not automatically entitle you to cancel any other arrangements even where those arrangements have been made in conjunction with your flight inclusive holiday. We cannot accept liability for any delay which is due to any of the reasons set out in clause 10 of these

Booking Conditions (which includes the behaviour of any passenger(s) on any flight who, for example, fails to check in or board on time). The carrier(s), flight timings and types of aircraft shown in this brochure or on our website and detailed on your confirmation invoice are for guidance only and are subject to alteration and confirmation. We shall inform you of the identity of the actual carrier(s) as soon as we become aware of it. The latest flight timings will be shown on your tickets which will be despatched to you approximately two weeks before departure. You should check your tickets very carefully immediately on receipt to ensure you have the correct flight times. If flight times change after tickets have been dispatched we will contact you as soon as we can to let you know. Please note the existence of a “Community list” (available for inspection at https://ec.europa.eu/ transport/modes/air/safety/air-ban_en) detailing air carriers that are subject to an operating ban with the EU Community. Our advertising material is our responsibility, as your tour operator. It is not issued on behalf of, and does not commit the airlines mentioned herein or any airline whose services are used in the course of your travel arrangements. 24. ADVANCE PASSENGER INFORMATION A number of Governments are introducing new requirements for air carriers to provide personal information about all travellers on their aircraft to the Authorities before the aircraft leaves the UK. The data will be collected either at the airport when you check in or in some circumstances when, or after you make your booking. Accordingly, you are advised to allow extra time to check in for your

flight. Where we collect this data, we will treat it in accordance with our privacy policy. 25. FOREIGN OFFICE ADVICE You are responsible for making yourself aware of Foreign Office advice in regard to the safety of the countries and areas in which you will be travelling and to make your decisions accordingly. As the advice can change we recommend that you keep up to date and check the situation closer to your departure date at https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice. Advice from the Foreign Office to avoid or leave a particular country may constitute Force Majeure (see clause 10). 26. BAGGAGE You are responsible for the carriage and care of your luggage throughout your holiday except for such times as it may be in the hands of the airline; herein such circumstances the airline specific terms and conditions relating to the carriage of luggage apply, or when porterage at a hotel or on arrival and departure is included. Please ensure that your luggage is loaded on to all transport and be careful to take the correct luggage with you when you leave any mode of transport. 27. MARKETING AND IMAGES You acknowledge and agree that, while participating in any tour, images, photos or videos may be taken by other participants, us or our representatives that may contain or feature you (the “Visual Content”). You consent to any such pictures being taken and grant a perpetual, royalty-free worldwide, irrevocable license to us, our contractors, sub-contractors and assigns, to reproduce the Visual Content for any purpose whatsoever (including marketing, promotions and the creation of promotional materials by or with

sub-licensees), in any medium whatsoever, whether currently known or hereinafter devised, without any further obligation or compensation payable to you.
