LATE RESERVATIONS: Enrollments received after the deposit deadline are subject to confirmation. Late fees may apply.
TRAVEL DOCUMENTS: It is the traveler’s responsibility to have a valid form of ID while traveling in the United States. It is solely the passenger’s responsibility to ensure that all required documents are complete and current. Peter’s Way Tours will not be held responsible for a passenger’s lack of current and valid entry documents. Peter’s Way Tours cannot be held liable for any misplaced or lost luggage. It is the passenger’s responsibility to make sure their luggage travels with them the entirety of the trip.

ACCOMMODATIONS/SINGLE TRAVELERS: The package price is based on double, triple, or quad occupancy (all with two queen beds). Married couples may request a king bed which is subject to availability. Single rooms may be requested at time of booking. Single rooms are limited and subject to confirmation. We cannot guarantee roommate requests but will make every effort to pair you if multiple occupancy is requested. If a single room must be assigned due to lack of a traveler to pair you with, a roommate’s cancellation, incompatibility, or any other reason (at the last moment or while on tour), you will be charged the single room rate.
MEALS: Breakfast daily plus three (3) dinners.
GRATUITIES & SERVICE CHARGES: Gratuities for your driver are included in your tour package. Gratuities for local guides and hotel staff are not included in your tour package. All service charges and local taxes as imposed by hotels are included in the package price.
TRAVELER HEALTH ADVISORY: Passengers must be medically and physically fit for travel and ensure that such traveling will not endanger themselves or others. Most pilgrimages entail a lot of walking, stairs, hills, cobblestone roads, etc. Tour buses are not equipped with wheelchair ramps. A traveler who requires special assistance must notify PWT and must be accompanied by a travel companion who will provide proper help. PWT shall not be held responsible if we are unable to accommodate passengers with special needs, or for the denial of services to a passenger by any carrier, hotel, restaurant, or other independent suppliers.
PHOTO RELEASE: I grant PWT permission to use photos and/or video, taken on this tour, in which I appear. I understand such images may be used in print/online publications, presentations, websites, and social media platforms. I consent and waive all claims for compensation for use, or for damages.
DISCLAIMER OF RESPONSIBILITY: PWT is only acting as intermediary and agent for the suppliers identified on this, or any accompanying documents, in selling services, or in accepting reservations or bookings for services that are not directly supplied by PWT (such as hotel accommodations, ground transportation, meals, tours, etc.). PWT shall not be responsible for breach of contract, bankruptcy, or any intentional or careless actions or omissions on the part of such suppliers, which result in any loss, damage, delay, or injury to any traveler, travel companions, or group member. PWT shall not be held responsible for any changes made in the itinerary or schedule of liturgies throughout the pilgrimage. Unless the term “guaranteed” is specifically written on the ticket, invoice, or reservation itinerary, PWT does not guarantee any supplier’s rates, bookings, or reservations. PWT shall not be responsible for any injuries, damages, or losses caused to any traveler in connection with terrorist activities, social or labor unrest, airline strikes, mechanical or construction difficulties, diseases, pandemics, quarantines, local laws, climatic conditions, abnormal conditions or developments, or any other actions, omissions, or conditions outside of PWT control. By embarking on this trip, the traveler voluntarily assumes all risks involved with such travel, whether expected or unexpected. The traveler is hereby warned of such risks and is advised to obtain appropriate insurance coverage for them. PWT does not accept responsibility or liability for minors traveling on the tour.
TRAVEL INSURANCE: It is strongly recommended that all participants purchase insurance when they travel since the tour operator is not responsible for non-refundable payments, damaged luggage, or trip interruption. PWT offers an optional Passenger Travel Protection Plan. These benefits and services help ensure the well-being of the passenger while traveling worldwide. The insurance premium is based on total package price, including taxes, fuel surcharges, single supplements, deviation fees, late charges, etc (see chart below). If the insurance premium is included with your deposit, the passenger will be covered for pre-existing conditions. The insurance plan can be purchased at any time thereafter, excluding coverage for pre-existing conditions, until final payment has been made. Plan payments will not be accepted after final payment has been made. All plan payments are non-refundable. If you choose to extend your stay or plan a pre-tour program, travel insurance can be purchased for an additional $4.00 per day. Additional coverage needs to be requested. The insurance plan will not automatically be extended. The insurance plan will only cover pre-paid arrangements made through PWT. The Passenger Travel Protection Plan includes coverage for the following: trip cancellation/interruption/delay, accident/sickness medical expense, emergency medical evacuation /repatriation, lost baggage/personal effects, accidental death & dismemberment, and 24-hour Emergency Travel Assistance Services. Benefits and services are provided by Travel Insured International. Upon claim approval, reimbursement is up to 100% of the non-refundable payments for your trip. Once you begin your trip, coverage under the plan will end as soon as you go back to your return destination. This means that if you return home early, your coverage will terminate early as well. Losses incurred after your coverage ends cannot be reimbursed. Be sure to review the policy coverage on the link below, or when you receive a copy of the policy upon enrollment. If you need further information, please call Travel Insured International at 1-866- 684-0218. This travel insurance is underwritten by United States Fire Insurance Company, Eatontown, NJ under policy number T-2508.
ASSIGNMENT OF BENEFITS: In the event that PWT pays for any service that is later reimbursed by the travel protection plan (e.g. hotel or buses for trip interruptions or delays), by signing the enrollment form I agree to assign any of those payable benefits to PWT up to the individual allocated amount of the payment made by PWT.
