1.- GENERAL CONDITIONS OF WEBSITE USE AND ACCESS

If you access, view, or use the materials, content, or services via the Website, this implies that the User understands and accepts these General Conditions of Use, which define the rights and obligations of CIVITATIS and the User, regards the contraction of touristic activities, guided tours and transfers.

These are the only General Conditions of Use applicable to the use of the Website (notwithstanding that some services may entail specific conditions) and to the contraction of services which supersede any other conditions, except in the case of a previous agreement in writing between CIVITATIS and the User.

To access the Website, User registration is not required. However, to be able to contract any of the services offered by CIVITATIS it is required that the User registers and accepts these conditions before making the corresponding payment.

2.- PURPOSE OF THE WEBSITE

CIVITATIS has developed this Website to offer the User a service for the reservation of activities, excursions, and guided tours in different countries throughout the world.

CIVITATIS also offers pick up and transfer services through the Website, which permits the User to contract a private vehicle, which will pick them up and transfer them from one point to another within the cities where CIVITATIS offers this service.

CIVITATIS informs you that the activities, excursions and guided tours, as well as the transfers, are services provided by third parties, who collaborate with CIVITATIS (hereafter the Provider/s). Therefore CIVITATIS IS LIMITED EXCLUSIVELY TO THE RESERVATION OF ACTIVITIES, EXCURSIONS, GUIDED TOURS AND TRANSFERS, THROUGHOUT THE WORLD, WHICH ARE THEMSELVES UNDERTAKEN DIRECTLY BY THE PROVIDERS.

In addition, via the Website, CIVITATIS offers its Users free travel guides to different destinations, which include photographs, information on transport, the most important tourist sites, an interactive map and different recommendations and advice related to the destination. The access and consultation of said travel guides can only be done online, and their commercialisation is prohibited, with the User accepting this use and being responsible for misuse and unauthorised use.

In general, the contraction of the services offered by CIVITATIS will take place between the User and CIVITATIS, although with certain providers CIVITATIS will be limited to offering its Website as an online platform through which providers offer their services to be contracted directly by Users. The form of agreement will be indicated in the voucher of the activity.

In this latter case, the User, when finalising the reservation, establishes a contractual relationship with the provider with whom they have reserved the activity or transfer. CIVITATIS will act as an intermediary between the User and provider, limited to transmit the relevant reservation details to the provider and sending the User an email confirmation of the reservation in place of the provider.

The information displayed by CIVITATIS through the Website is, in any case based on the information provided by the local providers.

3.- RESERVATION WITH CIVITATIS AND REGISTRATION ON THE WEBSITE

To be able to make reservations via the Website, the User will have to provide their personal details (name, surname, e-mail, telephone and mobile), or in their case the data of the person in whose name the activity or transfer is being reserved, with CIVITATIS being able to make the reservation solicited by the User.

Users can also create a User Account by filling out the registration form on the Website. Through this account, the User will create a profile which will provide access to a private area of the Website, through which they can manage all the reservations made through said Website.

By accepting these General Conditions of Use, Users state that they will provide correct, exact, current and complete data about their identity, or the person in whose name the activity or transfer is being reserved. In this way, the Users will be responsible for the accuracy of the data given to CIVITATIS and of any consequences which could arise from errors in this information.

Users will bear full responsibility for the use of their account. Therefore they will also be responsible for the care and confidentiality of their Username and/or passwords which permit access to their account, and state that they will not provide use to third parties, whether temporary or permanent, nor provide access to said third parties.

In accordance with the former, Users must immediately notify CIVITATIS by email to reservas@civitatis.com any unusual activity regarding their User name and/or password, arising from circumstances such as theft, loss, or unauthorised use, so CIVITATIS can proceed to cancel or block as soon as the undue use of your User Account is known. If you fail to communicate the above, CIVITATIS will be exempt from any responsibility for the consequences of undue use of the Username or password by unauthorised third parties.

4.- SPECIFIC CONDITIONS REGARDING THE RESERVATION OF ACTIVITIES, EXCURSIONS AND GUIDED TOURS

The reservations made by each User via the Website are subject to the specific conditions which apply to each activity, excursion or guided tour. The User can find these conditions in the description of the activity on the Website, and in the confirmation email sent by CIVITATIS after the reservation is made.

4.1- General Conditions Applicable to all Services.

In general, the reservation of activities, excursions and guided tours that CIVITATIS promotes through its Website are subject to the following conditions:

The dates and schedules of the activities, excursions and guided tours published on the Website have been pre-established by the providers and cannot be modified. The only way the date and time of an activity could be modified would be when the User has contracted a private service, in which case this modification would need to be transmitted via the contact form on the Website, available at www.civitatis.com/en/contact/ . In any case, the response of CIVITATIS will depend on the conditions of each provider.
Users can modify the details of their reservation if the conditions of the activity, excursion, and/or guided tour permit this. To be able to make this modification the User should log in using the link sent in the confirmation email, or directly from the pan available in the User Account under the section marked “Reservations”.
The minimum notice period to book an activity varies depending on the activity, excursion and/or guided tour that the User would like to reserve. This can be seen in the details of the activity on the Website. CIVITATIS informs you that it is impossible to reserve an activity with less notice than that which has been indicated in the corresponding activity.

To reserve and activity, excursion or guided tour privately, please contact CIVITATIS through the contact form available at www.civitatis.com/en/contact/.

4.2. – Specific conditions relating to the information of the activity, excursion and/or guided tour reserved.

The meeting point, date, time, duration and all necessary information for the activity, excursion and/or guided tour reserved can be found in the description of each service, both on the Website and in the confirmation email that CIVITATIS sends to the User once the reservation is made.

In the confirmation email as well as giving you all the information regarding the reserved service, CIVITATIS may provide the User with a reservation voucher for the activity, activity, excursion and/or guided tour or CIVITATIS will inform the User about the arrival of an email from the provider with the justification being that the User should present this to the provider before the activity begins, or once it’s finished, depending on the specific conditions established by the provider.

Users must be punctual and be at the meeting point at the time and on the day indicated on their voucher, as all activities, excursions and/or guided tours have a specific departure time, and it is impossible to modify the start time.

Duration of the activities, excursions and/or guided tours published on the Website are of a referential nature and could be subject to variations depending on the functioning of the service on the day or a factor external to the provider and/or CIVITATIS such as inclement weather, traffic, demonstrations etc.

If, once the User is in the destination and has questions relating to the service reserved, and in particular with the meet point of the activity, excursion or visit the Users can contact the provider on the telephone that appears in the voucher CIVITATIS sends when confirming the reservation.

CIVITATIS informs you that the provider may request that you show your voucher before the tour begins. CIVITATIS does not accept any responsibility should the User not do so.

5.- CONDITIONS SPECIFIC TO THE RESERVATON OF TRANSFERS

Notwithstanding, Users should take into account the following:

There are no supplements for luggage. The prices on the CIVITATIS Website are final and there is no additional cost (as long as the luggage fits in the reserved vehicle). The price indicated on the Website is per contracted vehicle and includes tolls and tips for the driver. Should luggage exceed the capacity of the reserved vehicle, the User bears responsibility for any extra charge.
Private service: The CIVITATIS transfer service is private, meaning that the vehicle can only be used by clients who have contracted the service. In some destinations you will be offered the option of a shared transfer, meaning that the transfer will be shared with other clients and with a cheaper tariff.
Vehicle seats: the number of seats indicated on the Website is the maximum number of passengers who can travel in the vehicle not including the driver. Take into account that a child occupies just as much space as an adult.
Pick up time: with transfers from the airport, the User should indicate the flight number and scheduled arrival time of their flight. With other transfers the User must only indicate the time they would like to be picked up.
Modification of the reserved transfer: The User can modify the transfer if the conditions of the service permit it. The User can modify the transfer using a link which CIVITATIS will include in the confirmation emails, or directly from their User account.
Contact with the driver: In the confirmation email, CIVITATIS will detail the name, email and emergency contact of the provider (or driver) in case the User can’t find the driver or encounters a problem.
Stops on the journey: If the User has to make a stop during the journey (for example if Users are staying at two different hotels), these stops will imply an additional cost, which varies by city.
Location of the destination: if the address of the destination is outside the centre of the city, this will imply an additional cost.
Modifications of the agreed route: If the User would like to modify the agreed route, this may imply additional costs which will be the responsibility of the User.

6.- RESERVATION FARES

The contracting conditions of CIVITATIS’ reserved services will be formalized once the Users have completed and accepted the activity or transfer reservation form and this has been confirmed, with the reservation and payment processes having been completed correctly.

In general, CIVITATIS takes payment via the web page of the activity, excursion, guided tour and/or transfer reserved by the User. However, there are some services whose providers permit that, when making the payment, the User pays a part of the total and when arriving to take part in the activity, excursion, guided tour and/or transfer the User will have to pay the remaining amount. In any case, this aspect of the conditions depends on each local supplier.

Having made the reservation, Users will receive an email which confirms receipt of payment for the contracted service and will provide a receipt for said services. The User should take into account that this receipt is not equivalent to the corresponding invoice for the contraction of these services. The User can solicit this invoice once the reservation has been formalised via the Website.

The User can download documentation regarding the contraction of services by CIVITATIS via the Website. In some cases the necessary documentation to take this service will be sent via email to the User by the provider. If the reservation is cancelled, the conditions in section 7 of these conditions apply, and CIVITATIS will send the relevant rectifying documents to the User.
