Conditions

In the following regulations the client is understood to be the person ordering the tour and the contractor is understood to be YourMunichTour.

1. Service description and execution of the service

The service description of the respective guided tour is contained in the corresponding tour description. YourMunichTour reserves the right to make changes due to special circumstances of the respective tour.

The services are mainly distinguished by guided tours in Munich for groups between a maximum of 10 and 30 persons (for the applicable maximum group size please refer to the respective tour description), in the following referred to as “Walking Tours in Munich”, and individual tours in a large-capacity vehicle up to a maximum of 8 persons in the surrounding area (hereinafter referred to as “Tours in the Surrounding Area”).

YourMunichTour, represented by the owner Alexander Kardaschenko, cooperates with a network of best-trained tour guides. The client has no claim to a specific tour guide, provided that the executing tour guide can meet the requirements of the client.

2. Effectiveness of the General Terms and Conditions (GTC)

The client accepts these terms and conditions when placing the order. The client books exclusively based on the GTC of YourMunichTour. YourMunichTour does not approve conflicting conditions or conditions of the client deviating from the GTC of YourMunichTour unless YourMunichTour has expressly agreed to their validity in writing. The tacit acceptance of bookings, as well as payments by YourMunichTour, does not imply agreement with conflicting conditions of the client.

3. Change, supplement, additional agreements of the service

The type and extent of the contractual services result from the service description in the order confirmation.
Changes, additions, or subsidiary agreements must be made in writing in all cases.
For changes, supplements, or additional agreements, which are made at the request of the client after the order confirmation has been issued and sent, possible additional costs to the agreed fee can be charged. YourMunichTour will inform the client about possible additional costs in written form, which the client must confirm in written form as well.
The contractor expressly reserves the right to declare a change of the agreements if unavoidable reasons make it necessary. The client will be informed of this in writing without delay. The amount of the agreed fee is not affected by this.
The indication of the duration of the tour is an approximate value based on the knowledge of the contractor. Depending on the size of the group or other circumstances, deviations from this time specification are possible. The client agrees to take this into account when planning subsequent appointments, etc.

4. Specifics for bus tours

In the case of sightseeing tours where the group travels by bus, the client must ensure that a seat with a seat belt and a functioning microphone system are available for the contractor. If there is no possibility to fasten the seatbelt, the contractor is entitled to refuse to carry out the sightseeing tour. If the microphone system is missing or damaged, no or only limited explanations can be given during the tour. Regardless of this, the agreed fee claim remains.
Munich has been an environmental zone since 01.10.2008 in the area within the Mittlerer Ring. You need an environmental badge to enter the zone. Information is available at the registration offices, at the TÜV, or at www.umweltplakette.de.

5. Specifics when entering third-party properties

In the case of events in properties to be visited, it may not be possible to visit these at short notice despite confirmation to the contrary. This does not change the agreed tour fee. We ask for your understanding if a guided tour is not or only partially possible due to special use of a property to be visited by the owner or by a third party, which was not known at the time the contract was concluded.

6. Group size

The maximum number of participants can be found in the respective tour description.
If the respective stated maximum number of participants is exceeded, the commissioning of an additional tour guide is necessary. This applies in particular to tours inside closed buildings.

If the client is late, there is no right to an extension of the tour or reduction of the price. The elapsed waiting time shall be charged to the agreed tour time. If the Client and the Contractor nevertheless agree on an extension of the guided tour on site, the additional costs shall be borne by the Client. The hourly rates listed under point 7 shall apply.
In the event of a delay of 60 minutes or more, the Contractor may withdraw from the order, as a guided tour is no longer possible in the remaining time. In this case, the fee claim of the contractor continues undiminished.

In case of withdrawal by the client, the following costs will be charged:

  • Up to 14 days before the start of the service: free of charge (any down payments will be refunded)

  • 13 to 4 days before the start of the service: 50% of the agreed fee (or offsetting with any down payment made)

  • 3 days (72 hours) or less before the start of the service: 100% of the agreed fee (or settlement with any down payment made).

The contractor reserves the right to charge the client for the agreed services already rendered (e.g., tickets purchased in advance, etc.).
If the client does not attend the booked service on the day of the service or does not attend the service for reasons for which the contractor is not responsible, the price agreed in the contract will be charged in full. This does not entitle the client to make up the tour later.

14. Cooperation obligations of the client

The client is obligated to cooperate in the fulfillment of the agreed contract and to avoid possible damages or disturbances.
In particular, the Client undertakes to inform the Contractor in good time before the start of the guided tour of any special features of the group profile (e.g., obstacles to walking or standing or similar). If such information is not provided or is provided only at the beginning of the guided tour, the Contractor shall not be liable for any necessary service restrictions.
Any possible complaints must be reported to the contractor without delay. Claims for non-performance or non-conforming performance must be asserted in writing to the Contractor within one month after the contractually agreed completion of the performance. Claims of the client become time-barred after 6 months, beginning with the end of the agreed service.

15. Liability

The liability of the contractor is limited to the fulfillment of the agreed scope of services and is financially limited to the amount of the agreed management fee. This limitation of liability in terms of amount does not apply to damages resulting from injury to life, body or health, which are based on an intentional or grossly negligent breach of duty by the contractor or his representative or his vicarious agent.
Through membership in the BVGD, there is professional liability insurance as well as financial loss insurance through the Bundesverband der Gästeführer in Deutschland e.V. (Federal Association of Tour Guides in Germany). Detailed information can be found at www.bvgd.org.
