All our tours and suppliers undergo a comprehensive risk assessment and audit after completing COVID-19 health and safety training.


If you contract COVID-19 before you leave, or if government-imposed travel restrictions related to COVID-19 mess up your plans, you can cancel your trip right up until the departure day.*
