This route is a joint group tour for travel agencies, not an independent group tour for KKDAY members.

Please be careful if you mind.
During a group trip, you are not allowed to leave the group early or midway. If you choose to leave the group midway, the unfinished part will be deemed to be abandoned by you and no fees will be refunded. Tourists are responsible for any accidents that may occur after leaving the group. Please understand.
During the trip, if force majeure causes the scenic spot/venue to be unable to be played/visited normally, the service staff can cancel or replace the scenic spot/venue according to the actual situation after reaching an agreement with you, or the service staff can refund the fee on site according to the ticket price in the travel product (the refund is not based on the listed price of the scenic spot/venue). Please understand.
During the peak tourist season or other special circumstances, the departure time of the trip may be advanced or slightly delayed (the specific departure time is subject to the notification of the service staff). Please be prepared in advance. Thank you for your understanding.
During the actual trip of this product, without reducing the number of attractions/venues and with your consent, the service staff may make appropriate adjustments to your itinerary based on weather, traffic and other conditions (such as adjusting the order of touring/visiting attractions/venues, changing the meeting time, etc.) to ensure a smooth trip.
In case of bad weather or other force majeure factors, the park may delay or change the operation time of the amusement facilities or the performance time without prior notice, or even cancel some projects and performances. Due to bad weather affecting equipment failure, downtime, performance cancellation, the travel agency will do its best to assist you in handling the change. If there is a price difference, the excess will be refunded and the shortfall will be supplemented.
