Cancellation policy
In 2021 or until the Covid-19 situation has passed, we will have a flexible cancellation policy. It is our way of empowering you to look ahead to your trip safe in the knowledge that if things change, you won’t lose out.
How does it work?
You make just a 20% deposit to secure your trip
You only have to make the final payment 60 days before your travel date
If you cancel, for whatever reason, we’ll return your deposit, providing you cancel at least 60 days prior to your departure.
Or you can move your dates without incurring additional fees
For those booking very last-minute travel or within 60 days, or who want to cancel or rebook under 30 days, we will still do everything we can to accommodate and support you.
This flexible cancellation policy does not apply to the photography trips for 2021. The standard cancellation applies. We recommend participants purchase cancellation insurance.
