Cancellation and Refunds

If cancellation occurs 120 or more days (November 23, 2022) before departure there will be no loss of deposit. Any cancellation made between 90-119 days will result in a total loss of your $500 USD deposit. Any cancellation received in writing from 51-89 days will result in in a loss of 50% of the trip price. Any cancellation between 50 days and the trip departure will result in a total loss of funds. We reserve the right to cancel the trip if it is not meeting the trip minimum (if we do so your deposit is refunded). Trip cancellation insurance is strongly recommended if there is a possibility that you might have to cancel your trip. All cancellations must be made to Traci Hill at Conscious Evolution in writing and any refund requests must be made in writing to Traci Hill at Conscious Evolution within 30 days of the return date. Please send written requests to: 7730 W Rascher Ave Chicago IL 60656.

Conscious Evolution reserves the right to cancel any trip prior to departure for any reason whatsoever, including an insufficient number of participants or logistical problems (e.g. acts of God, war, strikes, etc.), which may impede trip operations. The refund of all payments as described in the paragraph below shall release Conscious Evolution from any further liability. A trip cancellation due to insufficient numbers would normally occur at least a month prior to departure, unless acts of God, war, strikes or other events impede our departure causing large numbers of participants opt to cancel participation on the journey in the last days before departure.

Conscious Evolution must make substantial payments to suppliers (including providers of land travel) far in advance of the scheduled date on which we embark. If a trip is cancelled due to forces beyond our control (acts of God, war, labor strikes, earthquake, flooding, etc.), Conscious Evolution will promptly refund the portion of the trip cost not advanced to suppliers. Conscious Evolution will use its best efforts to recover advance payments as promptly as possible, and will refund to you the amount recovered, if any. However, Conscious Evolution does not guarantee recovery of any or all of the advance payments made, and our use of best efforts to recover these payments will not include the institution of any legal proceeding in foreign lands. This policy applies to a trip cancellation by client choice following any necessary increase in trip costs.

Thank you for joining us on this journey and for your cooperation & understanding!
