We apologize for any mistakes made when entering web data and we are not responsible for them.
1. Subject of the contract
The subject of this contract is the arrangement of mutual relations between travel organizers – tourist agencies Travel point j.d.o.o. (hereinafter TRAVEL POINT) and the PASSENGER or the Travel Contractor in the event that the Contracting Authority concludes this Agreement in the interest of the Third Person as a Passenger (hereinafter referred to as PASSENGER). This Travel Contract also contains the General Conditions and Instructions for Tourist Arrangements, ie it is called on a travel program that contains all the necessary information. The contract is considered binding after it has been signed by an employee of the agency (TRAVEL POINT agency agent or any other authorized to sell the TRAVEL POINT arrangement) and the PASSENGER and after the PASSENGER fully pays the price of the touristic arrangement or part of the price and undoubtedly ensures the payment of the remaining amount to the agreed date. If a passenger is not able to sign a contract personally, the contract produces legal effects only when the TRAVEL POINT receives the entire contract price of the arrangement price or, if explicitly contracted, a portion of the agreed price and documentation which indisputably ensures the payment of the remaining part of the price by the agreed date. The traveler can travel to the TRAVEL POINT and other authorized agencies by personal, telephone, internet or other means of distance communication. When entering into a contract, the passenger is required to provide personal information and timely provide all the documentation necessary for the organization of the trip. PASSENGER warrants that TRAVEL POINT has provided the correct and valid information necessary for the unobstructed travel realization and accepts all legal obligations arising out of this contract and positive legal regulations.
2. Reservations and payments
When signing up for a booking confirmation, the traveler pays 30% of the price of the package (unless otherwise specified in the program). The remaining amount up to the total price of the package is payable not later than 21 days before the start of the journey or the documentation for the undue payment of the total price of the package is provided. If a passenger does not fulfill his / her obligation at least 21 days before departure, he / she will be deemed to have canceled the booking without the possibility of refunding the advance payment.
To confirm reservations by “Fortuna System” or by “Last Minute” offers, the PASSENGER is obliged to pay the entire amount of the package in full or to make sure that the entire amount of the arrangement is not paid.
3. Prices
The travel prices are published in the travel program and are valid from the date of publication of the program. The prices quoted in TRAVEL POINT programs are based on contracts with our partners and do not have to match the prices posted on the spot in the destination where the traveler is staying and any price difference may not be the subject of the complaint.
The travel organizer can provide that a traveler of certain services to be used abroad is paid on the spot in the currency of the country in which he is located. For services paid on-site, a traveler may submit a complaint directly to the service provider.
TRAVEL POINT may, at least 21 days before the start of the journey, require an increase in the contract price if, after the conclusion of the contract, a change in the exchange rate has been made or the price of the services constituting the package arrangement increases, in particular the increase in transport costs, including fuel costs or air and other ports, etc.), increase in accommodation prices, which affect the cost of travel. In this case the price of the arrangement will increase the reciprocal increase in the price of the calculation elements on the basis of which the price is formed. The traveler agrees to accept the agreed price increase by up to 10%. If the contract price increases by more than 10%, the passenger has the right to waive the arrangement, and must notify TRAVEL POINT in writing within 2 working days of receipt of the notification. In case of cancellation from the arrangement, the passenger is not entitled to compensation for damages. If the Traveler does not deliver the cancellation to TRAVEL POINT in writing and within the specified time period, it is considered that he or she agrees to change the price.
4. Categorization and description of services
Offered hotels, apartments or other facilities in TRAVEL POINT programs are described according to the official category of the country concerned at the time of issuance of the program. We point out that local categorization in different countries differs significantly. Accommodation, nutrition, comfort and other services under the supervision of local and state tourist authorities, and standards of accommodation and services are different and not comparable. TRAVEL POINT accepts no liability for any verbal or written information that is inconsistent with the description of the services and facilities in the TRAVEL POINT program valid for the specified trip, provided by TRAVEL POINT or any other third party.
The arrangement of accommodation in rooms or apartments is determined by the reception in the residence. If a traveler does not explicitly contract a room / apartment with special features, he / she will accept any officially registered room / apartment for issuance in a particular facility or destination described in the travel program. Accommodation is not possible before 16:00 on the day of commencement of use of the service, and must be vacated by 10 am on the day of completion of the service, unless otherwise stated in the travel program. For later individual arrivals to accommodation facilities (after 20 hours), it is necessary, at least one day before departure, to notify TRAVEL POINT if such a late arrival is not provided for a travel program.
5. Travel documents, compliance with regulations
A traveler applying for a trip abroad must have valid travel documents. At the time of application or at the expiration of the deadline stated in the program, the Traveler shall provide all necessary data and documents for obtaining a visa to TRAVEL POINT for the country to which it is traveling. TRAVEL POINT does not guarantee a visa. If a traveler fails to comply with the stated obligations or if his visa application is denied, the passenger will be deemed to have withdrawn from the journey.
The traveler is obliged to respect customs, foreign currency and other regulations. If a traveler can not continue the journey due to non-compliance, he / she will bear all the costs and consequences that arise. If a traveler loses travel documents or is stolen during the journey, they are obliged to provide new ones at their own expense. The traveler is obliged to make sure that he personally, his documents and luggage meets the conditions foreseen by the visa, border, customs, health and other regulations, both the Republic of Croatia and the country to which he travels, to comply with the rules of house in catering and hotel facilities and cooperate with the representative of travel organizers and service providers in good faith. In the event of non-compliance with these obligations, the Traveler shall be liable for any damages, and TRAVEL POINT shall not be liable for any such damages. In this case, the amount of damage the traveler pays to the owner of the facility (hotels, apartments, etc.) at the reception.
When signing the contract, the TRAVEL POINT employee will familiarize the traveler with sources of information on the country to which the traveler is traveling, including the opinion of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Croatia. We recommend every traveler to be personally informed on the website www.mvep.hr and look at the list of high or moderate risk countries in the opinion of the MVEP RH.
All travelers who are not Croatian nationals and do not have Croatian travel documents are advised to inform themselves personally of the country they are traveling and the conditions to be fulfilled for travel to that country prior to the payment of the arrangement, having in mind the diversity of regulations applicable to nationals of certain countries. TRAVEL POINT may refer the passenger to the source of information but in no way assumes responsibility for the consequences of non-compliance with these regulations for the passenger himself.
Invalid travel documents, ie disapproval of visas resulting in the cancellation of travel, do not in any way oblige the TRAVEL POINT and the travel cancellation conditions apply. TRAVEL POINT removes any liability for any damage that would result from disregarding the regulations of certain countries or which would cause invalid travel documents.
6. Travel insurance
In accordance with the Tourism Services Act, the employees of the Agency are obliged to offer a “travel insurance package” consisting of: voluntary health insurance during their stay abroad, accident insurance, luggage insurance and travel cancellation insurance. By signing the contract, the passenger confirms that he has been offered a travel insurance package. In the case of a passenger requesting the above mentioned insurance, they can be arranged directly at one of the insurers or at TRAVEL POINT, where TRAVEL POINT participates only as an intermediary.
By signing this contract it is considered that the travelers are offered and recommended the insurance mentioned in the previous paragraph.
7. Insurance against travel cancellation risk
If a traveler is planning to cancel a trip for travel, we recommend paying a cancellation insurance policy. Cancellation insurance can not be paid later than at the travel application.
Cancellation insurance is valid only in the following cases, with the required written confirmation: military call, illness, death in the immediate family. If a passenger does not have a cancellation insurance contract and must cancel the trip and have a certificate of military call, illness or death, TRAVEL POINT reserves the right to pay according to the rules set out in Article 8 of this Agreement. In case of cancellation of the arrangement, the cost of obtaining a visa is not paid and in case the traveler has paid the cancellation insurance. With the payment of the cancellation insurance policy, the passenger transfers all his claims to an insurance company whose insurance policy has been canceled and TRAVEL POINT commits the passenger to provide all the documentation necessary for the claimant’s claim to the insurance company relating to the arrangement. All cancellation conditions are listed in the insurance policy and are recommended to each passenger to read them personally.

9. Canceling a Trip by Compass or changing a Travel Program
If the TRAVEL POINT before the beginning of the journey significantly changes the program, accommodation or price, it is obliged without delay to notify the passenger in writing. Within 2 business days of receipt of the TRAVEL POINT notice, the Traveler may accept the modified program or reject it. In the event of a waiver or denial of the offer, TRAVEL POINT undertakes to return the paid part of the price within 7 working days. In the case of acceptance, the replacement arrangement offered by TRAVEL POINT is considered a new travel contract, with the traveler giving up all the receivables according to TRAVEL POINT on any legal basis arising from the original contract.
If TRAVEL POINT has not provided the majority of the contracted services after the start of the journey or if it considers that it will not be able to satisfy the fulfillment of the majority of the contracted services, TRAVEL POINT may, on its own accord, with the consent of the passenger, make changes to the travel program and, if necessary, the difference in price between contracted and actually provided services. In addition to the written consent of a passenger, TRAVEL POINT may replace an unpaid part of the service with another service, whereby the passenger waives the right to claim TRAVEL POINT for such mutually agreed and modified part of the journey in respect of the travel contract concluded.
If TRAVEL POINT could not adequately modify the travel program or if the passenger does not accept the changes for justified reasons, TRAVEL POINT will allow him / her to return to the place of departure or another place at his own expense if the traveler agrees to it and compensate for any damage which he suffered in the meantime. Damage is paid in the amount of part of the price of the unused part of the contracted program based on the objections of the passenger. TRAVEL POINT will handle the complaint in the manner specified in point 11 of this contract. The highest amount of damage can be the amount of the contracted arrangement price.
TRAVEL POINT is authorized by a unilateral declaration to terminate the contract in whole or in part without any compensation for the damage to the passenger, if there are exceptional and unforeseeable circumstances that could not be prevented, avoided or eliminated, which would have been justified at the time of the conclusion of the travel arrangements reason for TRAVEL POINT not to sign a contract. In this case, the passenger is entitled to a refund of the amount paid in full or the difference in price between the contracted and the provided services.
TRAVEL POINT reserves the right to cancel the trip no later than 5 days before the start of the trip, if the trip has been canceled by the travel organizer for whom TRAVEL POINT was an intermediary in the sale of the aforementioned arrangement or if the minimum number of passengers needed for the travel arrangements specified on each individual a travel program or for any other valid reason.
