This information is provided only as a guideline and should be verified directly with other available sources. We reserve the right to make changes to these Terms and Conditions at any time, and any changes to these Terms and Conditions will be effective immediately after being posted on our website.
Prices quoted on this website are in Canadian Dollars and are based on fixed costs at the time of posting. Prices are based on a variety of factors including, but not limited to, fuel costs, rates of exchange and other factors. Should these costs increase, we reserve the right to increase the price of any of our vacation packages and products. In the event that any such increase is more than 7% (unless it’s the result of an increase in government tax), you will be entitled to cancel your travel arrangements and receive a full refund in the original form of payment.

For competitive reasons, we reserve the right to deny a price match guarantee. We set our prices based on our costs, as well as anticipated demand.
