No. All activities run regardless of the weather conditions unless we deem conditions to be unsafe. River activities still go in case of thunderstorms as well. We monitor river conditions constantly.

We may also change the length of the trip, raft size or number of guests per raft. If we must cancel a trip due to conditions, a full refund will be given.

Please note that when you make a reservation, we forfeit the right to sell your spaces to others. Since we do not overbook our trips and trip size is limited we strictly enforce our cancellation policy.
You may receive a 90% refund if you cancel at least 15 days prior to trip. Refunds do not include the convenience fee amount for online booking as this is remitted to a Third Party processor. Reservations made less than 15 days prior to trip date are nonrefundable, once payment is received. We regret that we cannot make exceptions for personal emergencies, late arrivals, or inclement weather.
Please consider adding Trip Protection for greater flexibility in cancellations. See tab below.
