The following cancellation terms apply:

• 90 days or more before departure:
  The deposit is converted into travel credit valid for 12 months from the original departure date.

  50% of the total trip price will be charged as a cancellation fee.

• Less than 60 days before departure:
  100% of the total trip price will be charged.

4. Minimum Group Size

Trips are based on a minimum number of participants (typically 4).

If the minimum number is not reached, Off The Path reserves the right to:

• Cancel the trip and issue a full refund of payments made; or

• Offer the trip at a revised price reflecting the smaller group size; or

• Offer transfer of funds to another departure.

Participants will be informed in reasonable time prior to departure.

​

5. Changes to Itinerary

Due to the nature of remote and adventure travel, itineraries may be adjusted for operational, safety, weather, political, or logistical reasons.

Off The Path reserves the right to substitute accommodations, transport, or activities of comparable standard if necessary.

Such changes do not entitle participants to a refund.

 

6. Pricing & Domestic Flights

Trip prices are based on supplier rates, currency exchange, fuel costs, and government taxes at the time of publication.

Where domestic flights or internal transport are included, these are subject to local airline policies and availability.

If cost increases occur prior to final payment due to currency fluctuations, fuel surcharges, government taxes, or airline adjustments, Off The Path reserves the right to adjust pricing accordingly.

Once issued, domestic flight tickets may be non-refundable and subject to airline rules.

 

7. Cancellation by Off The Path

Off The Path reserves the right to cancel a trip due to:

• Insufficient participants

• Safety concerns

• Political instability

• Operational constraints

• Force majeure
   

In such cases, participants may choose between:

• A full refund of payments made to Off The Path; or

• Transfer of funds to another trip.

Off The Path is not responsible for international flight costs, visa fees, insurance, or other personal expenses.

 

8. Force Majeure

Off The Path is not liable for failure to perform obligations where such failure results from events beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to:

• Natural disasters

• Government actions

• War or civil unrest

• Pandemics

• Airline cancellations

In such cases, refunds will depend on recoverable funds from suppliers.
