Private Guided
A State with more mountains than buildings, more wildlife than people and more glaciers than stop signs, Alaska really is amazingly different, with the tallest mountains, the largest area of national parks and the longest stretch of coastline in the USA. Alaska is a place of sheer magnificence.

If you cancel your holiday

You, or any member of your party, may cancel your travel arrangements at any time. Written notification from the person who made the booking must be received at our offices. Since we incur costs, you will have to pay cancellation charges as follows:

Period before departure within which cancellation notice received

If More than 90 days then then Amount of cancellation fee is Deposit

If 89-50 days, then the Amount of cancellation fee is 50% of total holiday price

If 49-31 days, then the Amount of cancellation fee is 50% of total holiday price

No refunds for unused travel/services due to changes of inclination while on holiday, even if cancellation has been notified to the supplier.
