The terms behind every booking
The practical and legal terms that apply once a reservation is made. Ask us anything here before you book. We would rather explain it than have it be a surprise.
What each journey includes
Accommodation, meals, transport and any fees are specific to each journey. For KCT Editions, they are set out on the Edition’s own pages and in your personal quotation. For KCT Private Journeys, they are confirmed in your written proposal before you book.
A rental car, a villa arrangement, a planning fee or a room supplement applies only when your written proposal or quotation includes it.
Payment
Prices are quoted in euros. Payment is by bank transfer only. If you choose to pay in US dollars, the amount is converted at the nominal Google exchange rate plus 2%, fixed as of the invoice date. Bank details are never shown online; they are sent to you by email after booking. For KCT Editions, the payment schedule and cancellation terms are published on the Edition's prices page, see the Das Balance booking terms. For other journeys, they are confirmed in writing before booking.
Cancellations & refunds
Kosher Culinary Travel reserves the right to cancel any program for any reason; if a program is canceled, all monies are refunded, and such a refund releases Kosher Culinary Travel from any further liability. For KCT Editions, the Edition's own published booking terms set the payment schedule, cancellation charges and refunds, and they apply instead of this section (see the Das Balance booking terms). For other journeys, to cancel a reservation, you must send email notification. Monies paid are refunded less a cancellation fee determined as of the date we receive that notice: 50% of the total fee ninety days or more before the program start date, and 100% of the cost of the trip within eighty-nine days of the start date. Kosher Culinary Travel reserves the right to hold these charges as credit toward a future trip instead, less a handling fee per person.
Travel insurance
We recommend the purchase of comprehensive travel insurance to cover the cancellation fees outlined above, which apply regardless of the reason for cancellation. Kosher Culinary Travel carries no insurance for medical expenses, lost luggage, or any other damage or loss that may occur to a participant, however caused.
Responsibility
Reservation indicates agreement with all terms and conditions stated on this page. Kosher Culinary Travel reserves the right to make itinerary changes whenever, in its sole judgment, conditions warrant, and shall not be liable, directly or indirectly, for any injury, death or damage for any reason whatsoever, including but not limited to war, acts of God, weather, strike, detention, delay, or airline or other travel-related circumstances. Kosher Culinary Travel also reserves the right to accept or refuse any person as a guest; no refund is applicable if a guest is asked to leave. Kosher Culinary Travel is not responsible for belongings damaged, lost or left behind by a guest.
