Before You go
Transportation to the Starting Point
Most DeLuxe Hiking trips are designed as “land only” packages with the planned starting point at a convenient place such as a hotel near a major airport. In some cases, the starting point may be within driving range, and a flight will not be necessary. DeLuxe Hiking has agreements with partner hotels, but parking may be subject to availability and there may be an additional charge.
For guests who would like assistance with their travel arrangements for before and after the trip, our
Connections Program is one of our
Optional Add-On
services.
Flight Information
For tours that are land only, and thus do not have flights included in the package, transfers to the first hotel from the airport, and from the last hotel to the airport may have additional charges depending on the arrival and departure times. Flights can be arranged by guests independently or they can be arranged by our reservations staff. See also our
Optional Add-On Services.
Luggage Information
Baggage and personal effects are the sole responsibility of the owner at all times. Although DeLuxe Hiking staff is careful while handling luggage, guests should ensure that their luggage is in a condition sufficient to withstand the normal loading, unloading and delivery process. DeLuxe Hiking does not accept liability for damage to luggage such as broken wheels or feet, lost pull straps, damage to retractable luggage handles, or damage resulting from over-packing.
Insurance
Like all insurance arrangements, travel insurance is characterized by very specific and precise wording which deals with benefits, covered reasons, and conditions under which coverage will be excluded. DeLuxe Hiking recommends reading insurance documents carefully, and we invite guests to call with any questions.
