Guests traveling with a T.C. green passport must renew their passports if the issue date is older than 10 years; otherwise, they may not be accepted into the destination country and/or airlines may not operate their flights from Turkey. In such a case, the responsibility falls on the traveler, and BTB TOURS cannot bear any liability.
To avoid problems with customs police at the border of the visited country, worn, torn, or damaged passports need to be renewed, and if travelers are Turkish citizens needing a visa, their corresponding visas must be in the new passport. In such cases, responsibility lies with the traveler.
Guest passports must be valid for at least 6 months from the return flight date. Otherwise, any matters that might prevent travel falls under the guest's liability.
BTB TOURS acts as an intermediary between the traveler and the consulate. The consulate reserves the right to deny a visa if deemed necessary. BTB TOURS is not liable for any visa denial. BTB TOURS only undertakes the role of an intermediary. BTB TOURS has no sanctions or liabilities in personal visa applications. Consumers have registered for the tour by accepting these conditions.

The duration to obtain the necessary documents for travelers applying for their own visas (hotel confirmation, flight ticket, etc.) typically takes one working day. Guests need to schedule their appointment dates and times considering this timeframe. Otherwise, BTB TOURS cannot be held responsible for potential inconveniences.
If a guest cancels their reservation and/or does not participate in the relevant tour, the visa fee and service charge are non-refundable. If the guest obtained their visa and visa services via BTB TOUR's visa department, and if this visa service was listed in the travel agreement as an additional service, if BTB TOURS cancels the tour due to insufficient participation or for another reason, the guest can receive a refund of the remaining amount, after presenting their unused visa within one week of its expiration, excluding consulate fees and similar charges. If the guest obtained their visa independently and/or with the assistance of a different visa agency, they are not entitled to any refund from BTB TOURS in case of cancellation of the tour.
Depending on the city the flight will land in, there may be changes in the routes. Changes to the aircraft type and time are possible, and due to high occupancy or special periods, hotels may have availability changes; therefore, another similar hotel may be provided.

Furthermore, they may miss a portion or all of the first day's program due to missing the group's departure; in this case, the responsibility lies with the passenger. Additionally, if traveling to the city/country with a different flight from the group, the transfer from the airport to the city or from the airport to the hotel will be the passenger's responsibility.
Guests wishing to upgrade their airline tickets using miles can only do so if there is availability on the relevant flight of the airline after the ticket is issued. Since flight seats in our programs are from the group class, to upgrade the desired ticket to a regular economy class (if available), the guest may need to pay a fee specified by the airline. The price difference that may arise in this case is the guest's responsibility. Group tickets in our programs are usually issued a few days before the departure of the tour.
