Trip Cancellation Insurance
As there are many unforeseen circumstances that may occur during or leading up to the trip, we highly recommend trip cancellation insurance.
In many situations, this may be the only way to receive a refund for unused services.
In brief, trip cancellation insurance may allow you to get reimbursement if you need to cancel your expedition when you are not entitled to a refund from Alpine Ascents.
Alpine Ascents International offers a plan in conjunction with our travel insurance partner.
Yes. Top notch all the way. Both Victor and Nick are experienced and knowledgeable guides. Their decision making and leadership skills are of the highest order. Lots of teaching opportunities along the way; both Victor and Nick were very open and willing to share their knowledge
