This tour runs in most weather conditions and is only affected if water levels become too high. If you don’t hear from us, your adventure is going ahead as planned.
Please make sure your contact details are up to date. If a cancellation becomes necessary, we will reach out and help you rebook, choose another activity, or receive a full refund.
