🌟 Trip Planning Fee: It's all about the adventure, but just a quick note that the Trip Planning Fee is non-refundable and can't be transferred to something else. We're all in this together, so no exceptions.
 
🔒 Travel Protection: We're here to keep your plans safe, but Trip Planning Fees aren't covered by travel protection. 
 
🌟 Curious about Costs? We've got answers! You asked, and yes, there's a Research Fee starting at $25 consultations for up to 4 guests and $50 for 4+ guests. Consultation fees do not get applied to your booking as a credit.
 
✈️ Ready, Set, Go: When you're ready to dive in, make sure to give us a heads-up within 7 days of requesting a quote for destinations within North America. Trips to other continents: Please allow 10-14 days for processing. Prices and availability like to keep us on our toes!
