You're not allowed to leave the group early during the tour. If you choose to leave the group during the tour, it will be deemed that you have forfeited any uncompleted itinerary and no refund will be provided. You shall be responsible for any accidents that may occur after you leave the group.
During your travels, if your visits to any attractions or venues are affected by uncontrollable factors, your tour guide may propose canceling the relevant visit, visiting an alternative attraction, or providing a refund for the cost of the ticket (refunds are not necessarily the same as those displayed at the attraction/venue). We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you.

For this activity, your service staff may need to adjust your itinerary depending on weather, traffic conditions, or other factors.

In case of bad weather and other force majeure, the park may change the operation times of its amusement rides or the performance times without prior notice, and may cancel certain amusement rides and performances. If bad weather results in any equipment failure, shutdown, or cancellation of performances, the travel agency will do its best to assist you in processing changes. Any price difference must be paid for. If the new price is lower than the original price, the excess will be refunded.
