Cookie Policy

A cookie-by-cookie list showing what we use, how long each one is stored and how to change your preferences.

Last updated: Version: 1.0

What is a cookie and how do we use them?

A cookie is a small text file that a website you visit leaves in your browser. It is how a site remembers you — your session or your language, for example. Browser storage (localStorage), which does the same job, is included in this list.

Apart from essential cookies, nothing is written without your permission. Without statistics consent the measurement script is never downloaded to your browser — it is not merely "switched off".

Essential cookies

Needed for the site to run, for security and for functions you deliberately asked for. They do not require consent; the site cannot be used without them.

Preference and functional cookies

Records that make browsing easier and whose absence does not stop the site from working. Without your permission recently viewed tours and search history are never written, and the embedded map is not loaded.

Statistics cookies

We use Google Analytics 4 to see in aggregate which tours attract interest and where visitors struggle. Measurement is tied to your consent through Google Consent Mode v2: without permission every storage type is marked "denied" and the script is not loaded.

Marketing cookies

There is currently no advertising network on the site and no marketing cookie is written. We deliberately show the category in the preferences dialog: if an advertising partner is added later, this policy will be updated and your consent will be requested again.

No cookies are currently used in this category.

Third-party content

The map on the contact page is provided by Google. When that frame loads, Google may write its own cookies and can see your IP address. That is why the map is not loaded until you allow it; you see an explanation and a button in its place.

Some tours link to partner marketplaces. Once you follow such a link, that site’s cookie and privacy rules apply.

How to change your preferences

  1. Press the Cookie preferences button on this page or in the footer.
  2. Switch each category on or off.
  3. Confirm with Save my choices — your preference takes effect immediately.

When you switch a category off we delete the cookies and browser records belonging to it. For Google measurement we additionally send a "consent withdrawn" signal through Consent Mode.

You can also delete or block all cookies in your browser settings. Blocking essential cookies makes signing in and sending booking requests impossible.
