Travel and Cancelation Insurance:

Travel Insurance coverage is strongly encouraged to attend a What If Retreat. With most agencies, insurance must be purchased within 7 days of making your reservation. Please be sure that your insurance policy covers you for all relevant SPORT ACTIVITIES that you will be engaging in on your What If Retreat package & TRIP CANCELATION. Depending on the policy and conditions, travel cancelation insurance will pay for some, or all cancelation fees. You are welcome to choose any international travel insurance provider. We can recommend World's Nomad Travel Insurance as it provides affordable and adequate coverage options. 

Special Covid Cancelation Policy:

We understand covid has made it complicated to travel, so we've made it even easier to relax when booking your retreat package with us. Below are some commonly asked questions about our updated booking policies:

What if something 'covidy' happens and I am prevented from traveling?

The good news is that you are no longer required a PCR test to enter Mexico (our only international destination at this time)

We highly recommend World Nomad Insurance as it provides the coverage you need. 

What happens if US or Mexico borders close on the date I've booked to come?

Let's face it, these days we need to be prepared for anything when planning a trip. If traveling to our retreat destination is to suddenly close and this prevents you from joining the retreat you've booked, your payment amount will be held in credit for you to apply in full to any future retreat date and your travel insurance should cover any travel or flight interruption costs.
