what if the tour is cancelled due to high water levels?
If the tour has to be cancelled for safety concerns, we will message you the day prior. The reason why we cannot message people earlier is because conditions change very fast. Sometimes, the levels are too high for packrafting but perfect for rafting. If that is the case, we will give you the option to change your tour for a rafting tour. The rafting tour is only available when such conditions happen.
