Cancellation Policy

Emerald Triangle Revealed Tour cancellation policy.

Due to the very limited space available on this tour, and the large upfront costs we incur in arranging for your visit, we must adhere to our strict cancellation policy as follows:

CANCELLATION FEE SCHEDULE*

• Minimum deposit to hold your spot is $500 per person
• If you cancel more than 61 days before the tour begins, you will receive your deposit back minus $250 cancellation fee. (61 days before the tour is June 22nd, 2024)
• Remainder of Tour price is due 60 days prior to departure. (June 23rd, 2024)
• If you cancel 60 to 46 days before departure you will forfeit 50% of the tour price (June 9th, 2024)
• 45-0 days prior to departure is 100% of the tour price (June 10th, 2024)

In the rare event that Sol Spirit Retreats must cancel a tour, all trip members will be notified a minimum of 60 days before the trip departs and will receive a full refund of payments made to Sol Spirit Retreats. Sol Spirit Retreats reserves the right to cancel any tour for any reason, including insufficient tour enrollment. Sol Spirit Retreats is not responsible for expenses incurred by guests in preparing for a canceled tour, including, but not limited to, nonrefundable airline tickets, visa fees, inoculations, equipment, etc. We encourage you to contact our office prior to purchasing your airline tickets to check the status of your tour.

TRIP CANCELLATION INSURANCE

We strongly recommend purchasing Trip Cancellation and Interruption Insurance. Travel insurance information is enclosed with your trip planning materials, or a policy can be purchased through our office or your travel agent. This can help prevent needless loss in case of serious illness, accident, or death of the traveler, traveler’s immediate family, or traveling companion.

The land cost for a typical trip includes the following:

• Expert leadership
• Accommodations during your tour
• All or most meals
• All activities as noted in the itinerary and the necessary equipment for such activities

Each trip varies slightly, so speak with our travel experts or ask for a detailed itinerary that includes the specifics. Travel to and from tour meeting/departure points, pre- and post-tour accommodations and meals, optional activities, optional gratuities for your guide(s), and personal items are not included.
