Cancellation & Refund Policy

Last updated: March 2025

1. Cancellation by the Traveler

We understand that plans can change. Our cancellation policy is designed to be fair while covering operational costs already incurred with our supplier partners. All cancellations must be made in writing via email to [email protected].

2. Refund Schedule

Cancellation PeriodRefund Amount

30–59 days before departure50% refund of total cost
15–29 days before departure25% refund of total cost
Less than 15 days before departureNo refund
No-show on departure dayNo refund

3. Force Majeure

In the event of force majeure — including but not limited to natural disasters, pandemics, government travel bans, war, or civil unrest — cancellation terms will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. We will make every effort to reschedule your trip or provide the maximum possible refund, taking into account irrecoverable costs already paid to suppliers.

4. Cancellation by the Company

In rare cases, we may need to cancel a tour due to safety concerns, insufficient minimum group size, or force majeure events. In such cases, you will receive a full refund of all payments made, or the option to transfer to an alternative departure date or tour at no additional cost.

5. Refund Process

Approved refunds will be processed within 14 business days of cancellation confirmation, using the same payment method as the original transaction. Bank transfer refunds may take an additional 5–7 business days to appear in your account depending on your bank.

6. Travel Insurance

We strongly recommend purchasing comprehensive travel insurance that includes trip cancellation coverage. This can protect your investment in cases where our cancellation policy does not provide a full refund. Insurance is mandatory for adventure and trekking tours.

To cancel a booking, email us at [email protected] with your booking reference number. Our team will confirm the cancellation and applicable refund within 2 business days.
