If Cat Ba Kayak Adventures Cancels a Trip:
Cat Ba Kayak Adventures has never canceled a trip except due to unsafe weather conditions. If we do cancel for weather, no refunds will be issued, but a trip of a similar standard will be offered. In the past, we have only ever had to delay a trip by one day due to tropical storms.
If you book a trip during the monsoon season, please be prepared to get wet! Rain is not a valid reason for canceling a trip.
If we cancel due to a lack of bookings, we will refund the full booking cost. However, all other related expenses are your responsibility.
Medical Considerations:
You must advise us well before departure if you have any medical problems. ‘Tropical Tummies’ are quite common when traveling in South East Asia. Dehydration and sunstroke are also commonplace. We ask all our guests to pay attention to their lead guide who will advise guests on how to keep in good health. Please discuss with your doctor well in advance about coverage for malaria and other tropical diseases. Cat Ba Kayak Adventures cannot advise on these matters. For the most part, nasty tropical diseases are very rare nowadays, but it is wise to take precautions.
