Guarantees
GGTO
The Guarantee Fund GGTO guarantees travelers who have booked through one of the affiliated tour operators that they will be reimbursed the prepaid part of the travel cost if the tour operator suffers financial insolvency as a result of which the trip cannot take place. This is valid before departure as well as during the trip.
The acronym GGTO stands for Garantiefonds voor Gespecialiseerde Touroperators (Guarantee Fund for Specialist Tour Operators). The affiliated tour operators work independently and are specialist direct sellers. They sell their trips directly to their clients without intermediaries. Furthermore, they are officially registered in the Netherlands. The Guarantee Fund GGTO was established in January 2012 and now offers guarantees to the customers of 347 specialist tour operators. Before booking your trip check whether the tour operator is affiliated to the Guarantee Fund GGTO. All participating tour operators are listed on the page Affiliated Tour Operators.
The tour operator charges each traveler a client contribution of €9,00 per person travelling for this guarantee scheme. These contributions are paid to the GGTO enabling the guarantee fund to be built up and maintained.
