Four things to confirm before reserving.
01 — Eligibility
Check the current age, weight, health, mobility, and experience requirements for the exact trip. A general activity guide cannot confirm individual eligibility.
02 — Equipment
Ask what is provided, how it is fitted, and what you must bring. Do not assume a packing list for one activity applies to another.
03 — Conditions
Check the operator’s weather and cancellation policy, departure decision, and any current closures.
04 — The full commitment
Confirm the check-in time, transport, duration, total cost, and cancellation terms before committing.
Start with the right guide.
