future trip (within an 18-month period) under the following conditions:
• A written request to transfer must be received at least 90 days prior
to your locked-in trip date.
• OR if we can successfully sell the same date(s) to other angler(s),
the deposit may be refunded, less any transaction/administration fees.
If no replacement booking can be found, and/or you have not requested a
transfer, the deposit will be forfeited.

• 50% deposit is required for multiple-day bookings, with the remaining

Cancellations Within 90 Days of Your Trip Date:
If you cancel within 90 days of your trip and we are unable to find a
replacement booking, your deposit and payment will be forfeited.
If we do find a replacement booking, any refunds will be issued
promptly, minus transaction/administration fees.
Weather-Related Cancellations by the Guide:
In the rare event that the guide must cancel due to weather or safety
concerns, every effort will be made to reschedule your trip. If
rescheduling is not possible, 50% of the booking fee will be refunded,
minus any transaction/administration fees or license fees.
We will also assist with your insurance claim by providing all necessary
documentation and evidence.
Insurance:
Late cancellations are challenging for both clients and the business. We
highly recommend that you purchase travel insurance that covers
cancellation fees at the time of booking to avoid financial loss due to
unforeseen circumstances.
We are not liable for any unforeseen events such as sickness, injury,
damage, loss, delay, bad weather, or other circumstances beyond our
control.
For New Zealand clients, domestic travel insurance is highly
recommended, as it can cover events not covered by ACC.
Guide Assignments:
Due to operational needs, we may need to reassign your guide. Please
rest assured that all our guides are highly skilled professionals
committed to providing an exceptional experience. If a change in guide
is necessary, we will inform you promptly.
