We operate the Platform as a curated marketplace through which licensed boat operators ("Cruise Operators") offer Bosphorus cruises and boat tours (collectively, "Cruises") for purchase. We facilitate the Bookings, but the actual Cruises are provided and operated by the Cruise Operators themselves, not by Authentic Day Tour.

Cruise Operators are independent contractors and not agents or employees of Authentic Day Tour. Authentic Day Tour is not responsible or liable for any actions, errors, omissions, representations, warranties, breaches, negligence, or misconduct of Cruise Operators, nor for any damages, personal injury, death, or other loss or expense arising from Bookings or Cruises, except as expressly stated in these Terms.

If you are a consumer residing in the European Economic Area (EEA), you may have the right to withdraw from a contract within 14 days without giving any reason, in accordance with EU Directive 2011/83/EU on consumer rights.

However, in accordance with Article 16(l) of Directive 2011/83/EU, the right of withdrawal does not apply to contracts for the provision of leisure activities if the contract provides for a specific date or period of performance.

The ODR platform allows EU consumers to resolve disputes related to online purchases without going to court. When submitting a complaint, you may use our email address: [email protected].

Please note that the availability of the ODR platform does not oblige Authentic Day Tour to participate in alternative dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board, unless required by applicable law.
