CLJ Code of Conduct - Behavior Guidelines and Policies

The behavior and conduct of our CLJ travelers affects GROW's overall image and success of the Culinary Learning Journeys. To ensure that all CLJ travelers have the “best experience ever” on a learning journey, please be aware and abide by the following code of conduct.

All travelers shall:

• Be mindful of local laws and respect the customs and culture of the trip location

• Be aware that illegal activities will not be tolerated. The laws abroad may be different from the laws in the US and must be followed. You will be subject to any legal consequences and immediate dismissal from the tour. No refunds will be applicable.

• Not consume excessive alcohol resulting in public intoxication or lewd behavior.

• Respect your fellow travelers by behaving responsibly. Do not exhibit disruptive or offensive behaviors including: abusive or degrading language, physically threatening actions, hurtful criticism, inappropriate touching or using sexually explicit language.

• X marks the spot. Be where you need to be when you need to be there. Scheduled activities are not mandatory but if you deviate from the planned program, you are responsible for any additional costs. No refunds from any scheduled programing will be given.

• Be mindful of your safety and belongings at all times, so that you can avoid any mishaps while traveling.

Foreign Travel and Local Laws

Participants agree to abide by all local laws while on tour and abroad, including those concerning drugs, alcohol and tobacco. If participants abuse or disobey local law they may be sent home at their own expense and waive the right to a refund for any of their tour fee. Participants should also be advised that if local authorities become involved, they would be subject to the laws and consequences of the country in which they are traveling.

In addition to the points above, you will find your trip more enjoyable if you spend some pre-travel time to educate yourself about the culture you’re visiting. Before you jet off across the world, do a little research. How do they dress? What do they eat? How do they say “hello” and “please & thank you”? This will help you adjust to the new environment and keep you from looking like a tourist. 

Billing may take place at the time of approval as well as post-journey upon returning home.
