Book and Travel with Confidence

As well as carefully crafting amazing and meaningful adventures across the planet, we’ve made booking them as flexible, safe and as simple as possible. With the ongoing impact of COVID-19, we’ve made a number of updates to our safety guidelines, flexible booking conditions and trip departures.

So, whether you’re planning a last-minute escape or planning further ahead, whenever you’re ready to book your next trip, we’re with you every step of the way. Ensuring not only your safety and well-being but that of our leaders, crew and the communities we visit, always. Plus giving you peace of mind with your booking.

Here’s the top 6 reasons why booking with us will give you peace of mind:

1. Total flexibility

As we’ve seen, things can chop and change quickly, so we’re here to reassure you. As long as you notify us about changes to your travel plans at least 30 days before your scheduled departure you’ll be able to select one of the following options:

Free date changes
You can change your departure to a later date. We’ve added extra 2021 and 2022 dates to choose from, or you can request a new date that works for you or organise your own private bubble trip.

Flexible deposit
You can transfer your deposit to another available trip or hold your deposit on file indefinitely.

Convert it to credit
Save it for later. This, along with all payments, is 100% financially protected.

Get a refund
Being a small family business, we pride ourselves on personalised customer service and offer full and prompt refunds.

2. You can trust Adventurous Ewe

This year we’ve had to unfortunately postpone all our overseas adventures, and from a personal perspective, we’ve done what we can to help support some of our local crew financially. We’re proud to say that all our overseas travellers have either transferred their booking to a 2021 departure at no extra cost or received a full and prompt refund.

We’ve got you covered – financial protection 
If your adventure needs to be cancelled for any reason, like say a global pandemic, you won’t be left stuck and you’ll be offered plenty of alternative options thanks to our financial protection arranged by Towergate Travel through Zurich Insurance PLC.

Plus, if you opt to book your flights through our Flight Agent, you’re covered as our agent is ABTA and ATOL.

Secure online payments
All bookings can be made online with Mastercard, Visa and debit card or via BACS. You can also opt to pay via monthly instalments. We use WorldPay to handle all our online payments as it is a payment platform which is a global leader in payment processing offering superior security for both you and us as a company. 

Pay in instalments, interest free
We’re well aware that adventures can be a significant investment so we’ve set out to make it easy to afford. Once you’ve put down your deposit, you can pay the remaining balance off in monthly instalments with no extra charges so you can get out there and live your dream.

3. Trip cancellations

Due to the ongoing global impact of COVID-19 and with many international borders remaining closed for an unforeseen period, Adventurous Ewe has cancelled all our overseas trips until at least 1 August 2021. We will be in direct contact with anyone who has booked on an overseas trip with regular updates as overseas travel restrictions and changes.

This global health crisis has impacted everyone enormously, so we want to ensure your future travel plans are safe whilst also reassuring you that we are committed to supporting you, our valued flock, in the best possible way that we can.

Cancelled trips
If you book on a trip that we are forced to cancel due to the pandemic, you will have the option to join another trip at a later departure with no admin costs or receive a full refund or credit note (excluding flights or insurance payments as these have their own booking conditions directly with the supplier).

UK trips due to depart in 2021
At present all our UK trips post 17 May 2021, are still scheduled to depart as planned. We are monitoring the situation closely and will notify you at least one month prior to your scheduled departure date if your trips is cancelled or changed in any way. Rest assured, Adventurous Ewe carefully follows government travel advisories from our key traveller markets when making decisions about operating trips.

You choose to cancel your trip within 30 days of departure despite no official advice against travel
We respect your decision if you no longer wish to travel regardless of the destination or official advice. If you choose to cancel your trip, we will happily make those arrangements for you though please note, if there is no F&CO advice against travel, our standard cancellation terms will apply.

4. Travel insurance with COVID-19 cover

Travel Insurance is an important part of any booking. It is compulsory that everyone who travels with us has taken out adequate travel insurance which includes, among other things, cover for the full value of your trip, medical (emergency, evacuation and repatriation) arrangements, activities undertaken, personal liability, cancellation, curtailment and loss of luggage and personal effects and COVID-19 travel cover.
