A formal contract should specify:

Clause 2:Force majeure handling principles
The contract must state:
Itinerary changes due to weather, traffic controls, or other reasons not attributable to either party:
The travel agency is obligated to provide alternative plans
Increased costs are borne by the tourist
Reduced costs are refunded to the tourist
Case Example:When the Duku Highway was temporarily closed due to snowfall, the tour leader changed the itinerary per contract terms, taking the group to the Tangbula Hundred-Mile Gallery instead, and refunded the original Duku shuttle bus fee.
Clause 3:Accommodation and vehicle standardization
The contract must specify:
Accommodation:Specific hotel names or equivalent standards (including elevator, heating, bathroom facilities)

Case Example:A contract stated “15-seat Ford Transit throughout, 3 seats per row with center aisle, equipped with USB charging ports,” allowing the tourist to verify services accordingly.
Clause 4:Written commitment of a shopping-free itinerary
The contract must include clauses stating:
No shopping store arrangements throughout the trip
No recommended self-paid activities
No hidden consumption
Itemized fee disclosure (including transportation, accommodation, tickets, etc.)
Case Example:A tourist found a clause about “possible recommendation of evening performances” in the contract, requested its removal before re-signing, and strived for a completely shopping-free experience throughout.
