GUIDED TOURS AND EXCURSIONS Notes and Information 1. Intermediate Role

7. Liability

The Tourismus-Zweckverband Schweinfurt 360° (TZS - Tourist Administration Unit) finds tour guides for interested groups, with the diligence of a proper business person. The contracting parties of a guided tour are the ordering party on the one hand and the tour guide on the other hand. All contractual relations are between these two contractual parties.

According to legal provisions, the tour guide is only liable against possible recourse claims of the ordering party in case of wilful intent and gross negligence. Liability of the City or the District of Schweinfurt (represented by TZS) is generally excluded.

2. Booking Written booking must be made as early in advance as possible. The order will be confirmed in writing 3. Fees Since 01.01.2014, the gross fees for guided city tours and tour guides are as follows: City Tour: German:

per hour

€40

each additional ½ hour

€20

Guided Tour in a Foreign Language: One-time surcharge

English, French, Italian, Hungarian, Russian, Polish

Costumed Tour:

One-time surcharge

€10

€10

Half-day Rate - Excursions of up to 5 hours: German

€200

Foreign Language

€210

Day Rate - Excursions of up to 8 hours: German

€300

Foreign Language

€310

4. Terms of Payment Payment has to be made in cash at the end of the tour to the tour guide. A receipt can be issued upon request.

5. Waiting Times The tour guide is obligated to arrive at least 5 minutes prior to the start of the tour at the agreed meeting point. This does, however, not affect the actual duration of the tour. Should the group arrive late, the tour guide is obligated to wait for 45 minutes after the agreed starting time of the tour.

If the group arrives within the 45-minute waiting time, they and the tour guide have to make a joint decision on whether the tour will be shortened accordingly or - in case the tour guide has no other commitments - if the tour will still last as long as originally planned. If the latter is the case, the fee will be charged based on the waiting time plus the actual duration of the tour.

If the group does not arrive after the 45-minute waiting time, the tour guide may keep waiting or regard the group as a no-show. In the latter case, the tour is considered cancelled and the tour guide is entitled to a cancellation fee based on the agreed duration of the tour.

6. Cancellation Deadlines Towards the Tour Guide

8. Recommended Group Sizes It is not recommended that more than 25 persons join a group. For groups of more than 25 persons, proper understandability of the tour guide and visibility of the objects presented, cannot be guaranteed. In some cases (for example bus tours or tours on special topics), tours with more than 25 persons are possible, the maximum number of participants per tour guide is, however, 30. No additional fees will be charged.

9. Recognition of These Conditions by the Ordering Party The ordering party of a tour accepts these conditions at the time the order is placed.

In case the ordering party only learns about these conditions after placing the order, they accept these conditions unless they object to them immediately after becoming aware of them.
