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.
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 view a copy of this agreement or we can email or fax you a copy for your perusal.
Tide Rip Tours Ltd. cannot be held responsible or liable for any claims, losses, damages, costs or expenses arising out of injury, accident or death, damage, loss or delay of baggage or property, or delay, inconvenience, loss of employment, upset, disappointment, distress or frustration, whether physical or mental, caused by any act of omission or negligence of Tide Rip Tours Ltd., its employees, sub contractors, agents or participants. Tide Rip Tours Ltd. is not responsible for expenses incurred by trip members in preparing for the trip (i.e. travel costs, non-refundable air tickets etc.) Each tour itinerary is a general guideline of what can be expected on the adventure trip, but it is not a contract. Factors such as weather conditions, mechanical breakdown, flight cancellations, medical emergencies, natural disasters or other uncontrollable circumstances can alter your trip.
