- Rates for children and babies vary by tour and are listed in the FAQ on each tour page.

5. Changes or cancellation on our part
We may change the order of the itinerary or the departure time, or reschedule the tour, due to weather, closures or restrictions at the destination, traveler safety, not reaching the minimum group size, or force majeure.
