We attempt to cancel at least one day in advance of the trip. If we cancel due to the weather you will receive a full refund (day trips). If we operate the trip and you choose to cancel or not to show up due to the weather you are not guaranteed a refund. We reserve the right to cancel any trip due to lack of interest (normally 20 minimum passengers), weather, or whatever reason beyond our control. SPECIAL DIETS: Most of our tours include meals.
