7. RELATIONSHIP WITH OTHER CONTRACTS.

7.1. The relationship between the person making a booking and FOODLOVER is governed by these General Terms and Conditions.

7.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any other General Terms and Conditions specific to the service contracted at the time the tour is performed may be attached or submitted for the User’s approval.

Further, and irrespective of any notification provided to us or to any other party involved in the provision of services of any food allergies or intolerances, it remains your decision as to whether or not to consume any particular food items and you consume all food at your own risk.

In any case, FOODLOVER’s liability in any cases of breach of contract attributable thereto shall be limited to the price paid for the services the claim concerns.
