German term

der Tourenbeginn bestimmt den Preis

German to English Bus/Financial Tourism & Travel
der Tourenbeginn bestimmt den Preis. Änderung des Reiseverlaufs und der Hotels vorbehalten.

Subject: A package tour in Europe.
The above section is mentioned as a special note to the tour participants.

Does the writer mean that
'the tour organisers reserve the right to adjust prices before the tour''?

or just simply a warning that

'prices are subject to change before the tour begins' (due to various reasons)?

Thanks!

Ja und der Client meint auch, dass das Datum den Preis bestimmt.
Bernhard Sulzer Feb 13, 2008:
Hier gibt's verschiedene Preise für die gleiche Tour (Sizilien) zu unterschiedlichen Jahreszeiten; "der Tourenbeginn bestimmt den Preis":

Several German tourism sites have used this sentence, but I have not found any corresponding english equivalent.
I guess checking up with the client is a good idea.
Claire Cox Feb 13, 2008:
Or could it also be that where the tour starts i.e. Paris or Berlin or London, affects the price? I find it quite ambiguous - can you check with the client?
Maureen Millington-Brodie Feb 13, 2008:
Holiday prices will vary according to whether it is low or high season eg. holidays starting in August (high season) will be that much more expensive. There's usually a table showing price of each calendar week.

this is how I understnad this: the date determines the length of the tour and the price varies accordingly
Peer comment(s):
agree Bernhard Sulzer : yes, the start date determines the price; and the organisers reserve their right to change the itinerary of the tour (the destinations, stops) :-)
