Activ Retreats reserves the right to cancel any retreat for any reason, but will not cancel a retreat less than 30 days before the retreat start date except for unusual or unforeseen circumstances outside Activ Retreats control.

Where after departure a significant element of the trip contracted for cannot be provided, Activ Retreats will make suitable alternative arrangements for the continuation of the trip. If it is not possible to provide a suitable alternative or the Client reasonably rejects any suitable alternatives, Activ Retreats will provide the Client a refund of unused tour portions.
