Our Trip Assurance

Active Adventures Assurance

Exceeding Expectations

For well over 25 years we’ve set out to exceed expectations on our adventure tours both here in New Zealand and around the globe. The reality is that it’s not always smooth sailing – there’s sometimes unforeseen challenges – and the difference between a good operator and a world class operator (with unparalleled satisfaction & safety ratings!) is an unwavering attention to detail and personalised care.

We understand that you’re making a commitment to us

This is your trip of a lifetime and you want it to be perfect! Our Trip Assurance to you is a sign of our confidence in what we do and our ability to deliver exceptional adventure tours - rain, hail or shine! So here's what you can expect from us.

24 Month Deposit

If for any reason you can’t travel on the trip you’ve booked, just let us know no later than 90 days before your departure and we’ll hold on to your deposit as a credit for you to use towards the balance of your next trip for up to 24 months.

Change your trip

We understand plans change. So to transfer your deposit to another trip, just let us know no later than 90 days before your trip and we'll take care of the rest.

Refund for cancelled trips

Already paid off your trip and can’t travel? No worries! Just let us know no later than 90 days before your trip you'd like to cancel and we’ll provide a refund less your transferrable deposit, which can be used towards the balance of your next trip.
