Searching Availability...
Packages:
We are not a registered BC travel agent. Lodging must be booked with the individual companies concerned. This ensures availability for you. We simply point you in the direction of the best accommodation in the area. We do not pay commissions so as to help keep the price down to individuals willing to make a few phone calls and arrange services themselves.
Cancellations & Refunds:
Due to the nature of operating in ocean wilderness areas, tours may be modified or cancelled. Tide Rip Tours reserves the right to cancel any expedition for adverse weather, mechanical or logistical problems, or unforeseen circumstances which may impede trip operations or safety. Should this occur, a full refund will apply if you cannot reschedule.
In the event that you should cancel with more than 30 days notice to us, a refund of payments made less a 3% processing fee will be given. With less than 30 days, full deposit is non-refundable. We recommend the purchase of third party trip cancellation insurance for your protection in the event of illness and such.
Assumption of Risk Agreement
For all tours, each client will be required to sign an Assumption of Risk Agreement before embarking on the tour. The day that you book may be a windy day, with a bumpy ride home and not recommended for people with neck or back problems, pregnant women, persons with osteoporosis, nor very young children. You can inspect a copy of this agreement or we can email or fax you a copy for your perusal .
