Additional Information
Reservations/Deposits:
Reservations are “confirmed” upon receipt of a deposit on a first come first serve basis. We cannot guarantee space on any trip without a deposit. Tentative reservations are not guaranteed. We accept deposits with VISA, Discover, and Mastercard by phone, or by check, money order, etc.
Final Payments:
The balance is due 60 days prior to the launch date of your trip. If final payment is not received when due, we reserve the right to regard the reservation cancelled. Please make Final Payments with Check or Money Order
Cancellations:
Should you have to cancel your trip plans, deposits and final payments are non-refundable, unless we can replace your reservations. If we replace your cancelled space(s) with other guests, a $200/person cancellation fee is charged. Alternate guests you provide are welcome with no cancellation fee.
Please understand that we cannot insure your investment in river trip reservations. We strongly recommend the purchase of trip cancellation and interruption insurance. Once you sign up, we lose the right to sell your reserved space to other individuals or groups. Our number of trips and spaces per trip are limited by river management plans. Therefore, we regret that we cannot make exceptions for personal emergencies.
Trip Insurance:
Cancellation and interruption insurance can include full refund should you cancel due to health, medical, and other reasons. If you cannot afford to forfeit your reservation dollars, you should purchase trip cancellation insurance.
