"I'd have to say that the icing on the cake was Cape D'Or and the Lighthousekeeper's Cabin. It was just way cool!! I can't think of any way to truly describe it. It had started raining and so the lighthouse was lit and fog horn on. The wind was blowing and the surf was pounding on the rocks. Shortly after the rest of the group arrived, the rain stopped and we were treated to a sunset that lit the sky on fire. We sat on the chairs by the cliff, drinking wine and watched the sun go down like it was a movie being played specifically for us. If I hadn't known better, I would have thought that you guys had planned it. It was perfect."

- Katy Driscoll, Fundy Tidal Adventure, 2005.

Reserving your Adventure ~  Insurance ~ Single Occupancy
Our Changes ~ Your Changes ~ Tax ~ Discounts ~ Luggage Restrictions ~ Rental Equipment

Single Occupancy:

Solo Travellers: All adventure prices are per person, and based on double occupancy. Single occupancy charges reflect the cost of having a room by yourself. If you prefer to share or to avoid the extra cost, give us as much notice as you can, and we will do our best to match you with a roommate of the same gender. If you reserve at least 120 days in advance, and are willing to share a room, we will waive the charge even if we are unable to match you with a room-mate. From 120 to 60 days ahead, the charge will be reduced by 50%. Within 60 days, the single occupancy charge must apply until we are able to match you up. Any charge will be refunded if we are later able to match you up with a room-mate. Please note that where suitable shared occupancy is not available, a pro-rated single occupancy charge will apply.

Triple Occupancy:

If a third participant shares a room with two other full-paying guests, they will receive a 15% adventure discount, pro-rated to reflect availability of triple lodging. This will become 20% if they are 12 or under, or 50% if under four years old, and can accept a temporary bed.

Our Changes:

We reserve the right to change prices and itineraries without notice. If relevant currency exchange differs significantly between advertised print date and final balance due date, we reserve the right to apply fair adjustment to the final balance. We reserve the right to cancel trips when circumstances make it necessary, in which case a full refund will be made to any registrants. If there are fewer than four participants in your trip, three to four weeks prior to departure you may be given the choice of switching to self-guided, paying a premium to keep the trip guided, switching to another guided adventure, or postponing your trip. We reserve the right to deny participation to anyone endangering or disrupting the enjoyment of any other trip participants, in our estimation.

Your Changes:

If, after reserving your adventure, you want to switch to another adventure in the same calendar year, you must provide at least 60 days notice, and pay a change fee of $100 per person. All other changes will be treated as cancellations.

Tax:

Canadian adventures are subject to 5% sales tax (13% in NS and NF). 50% of the tax is refundable to non-residents on adventures that include inns. We will process the refund for you, and adjust your final balance.

Discounts for Referals:

If you have referred new customers to us since your last Freewheeling Adventure, you are entitled to a reduced cost. Each new guest who mentioned you as a referrer will allow you 7.5% off your next trip in the same season, in addition to the 5% discount you will receive as a returning guest. Qualifying referrals apply to new guests (who have never travelled with Freewheeling before) who identify you as “where they heard about Freewheeling Adventures”. They must have paid the deposit on a guided adventure of five days or more at the time that your final balance is due. We will be relying on you to tell us whom you have referred. It does not apply to family members under 21 years old or living at the same address. In these cases, you may be able to take advantage of our triple occupancy discount.

 

"Thank you for a fabulous experience!"

Luggage Restrictions:

Luggage is restricted to two soft-sided duffel style pieces per person. One may be large, and the other must conform to airline carry-on rules, usually used as a day bag. Hard sided suitcases and extra luggage, including bike boxes, must be declared at booking, and will incur extra fees to be determined based on circumstance.
