What counts as a group on a Europamundo tour

Twelve travellers do not always make a group. What Europamundo’s terms require, and the 35 day line for group discounts and free places.

Twelve travellers do not always make a group. Europamundo’s terms define it for a regular, non-privatized tour, and every part of the definition has to be true at the same time.

What the definition requires, in the terms’ words

  1. Enough peopleA minimum of 12 people.
  2. The same tourThey travel on the same tour.
  3. The same servicesThe services are the same for all of them.
  4. The same datesArrival and departure dates are identical, using a single included arrival and departure transfer, where applicable.

Twelve travellers who join different departures, choose different services or arrive on different dates do not meet the definition, however many they are.

The 35 day line

When the group is confirmed
  1. 35 days or more before departureThis rule does not remove them. The terms refer to Europamundo’s group policy for the rest.
  2. Fewer than 35 days before departureThe terms say discounts and free places will not apply.

So the date a group is confirmed matters more than the date it was first discussed. If a client is still deciding at five weeks out, tell them about the 35 day rule before they decide.

Groups of minors

The terms say that group discounts do not apply to groups of minors.

How we treat it

For us, twelve or more adults is a group, and the enquiry goes to our groups desk. Europamundo’s wording says people, not adults, so ask us how children count in your party before you tell a client what a group receives. Cancellation is different for a group, too, and the terms point to separate conditions for groups of 12 or more, so do not use the figures for individual travellers.

Our guide, What counts as a group, has the list of what to send us. Tell the groups desk.

Sources

Always read the tour’s own page for the season, and your quote, before you promise a client anything. Rules can change, so we say when we read each source.
