CANCELLATION OF A TOUR BY ORIGIN TRAVELS INC.

 

Origin Travels reserves the right to cancel a departure for any reason, including if the minimum number of travellers is not met. The minimum number of travellers needed to run each trip is 4.

 

In the case of a cancellation, Origin Travels will give travellers notice of cancellation 45 days to departure date, and provide a 100% refund for all monies paid or provide an alternative option such as a spot on a different departure date of that tour. For this reason it is extremely important for our travellers to purchase trip cancellation insurance to recoup payment for unused services due to trip cancellation.​
