For all tours, it's 500 euros to reserve and another payment by bank transfer or PayPal of 1500 euros
six months before your start date. The balance will be due at our meetup. After we receive your Inscription Form, we will invoice you via PayPal for
the deposit. Your Inscription is not complete until we receive your
deposit.
Includes all
equipment, meals, and B&B or hotel accommodations. (see FAQ What is
included)
Twelve
guests plus three guides. This assures a compact group with close attention to
individual needs.
If you are traveling alone, you may not be required to pay a surcharge. If you wish, we will place you in a room with another paddler of the same sex. (not sharing a bed, only a room with two beds) If we do not have another paddler to share or you choose not to share, we will arrange, when possible, a single room for an extra fee. In 2025, the single charge is €520 for a 10-day tour and €380 for a 6-day tour. In 2026, the single extra is €600 for the 10-day tour and €440 for the 6-day tour.
After
receiving your enrollment forms, we will email you a PayPal invoice for your
deposit payment. As our margin is minimal, we would like to ask you to pay for
all the costs of sending the payments to us. We must receive 500€ per person.
The second payment of 1500 euros paid by bank transfer or PayPal will be due
six months before your tour start date; the final invoice, including any bank
charges, will be due in cash at the meetup. You will receive your Final Invoice
two months before your start date.
The deposit
and the second payment are non-refundable if Douro Kayak does not cancel the
trip. We recommend you purchase travel insurance that includes cancellation
coverage.
Douro Kayak
reserves the right to cancel any trip up to 60 days before the Start Date due
to minimal numbers. The minimum number is 6 for the 9-night tour and 4 for the
6-night tour. We will keep you updated at all times.
