Reservation & Cancellation Policies

Before booking a trip with Alaska Kosher Expeditions, please carefully review the policies outlined below.

We strive to keep our policies fair to both our guests and our small business. We operate in some of the world’s most remote and demanding environments. Our trips are intentionally small, our operating season is short, and each guest space represents a rare opportunity.

The closer a cancellation occurs to the trip start date, the more difficult it becomes to fill that spot. This is why we strongly recommend purchasing Trip Cancellation & Interruption Insurance.

We suggest:

• Travel Guard

  
  

• Ripcord

  
  

We’re excited to share Alaska with you in the most authentic way possible. Thank you for choosing Alaska Kosher Expeditions — we look forward to welcoming you to Alaska.

Reservation Policy

• All prices listed are per person, based on double occupancy (see Roommate Policy below).

  
  

• A 25% non-refundable deposit per person is required to reserve your spot.

  
  

• The remaining balance is due 60 days prior to the trip start date.

  
  

• Reservations made within 60 days of departure require full payment at time of booking.

  
  

• We strongly recommend Trip Cancellation & Interruption insurance through Ripcord or Travel Guard.

Itinerary Adjustments

The sample itineraries displayed on our website and trip pages are intended to represent the style, flow, and level of adventure of each trip. Due to the remote nature of Alaska, limited availability of partner service providers, weather conditions, and logistics, the exact sequence of activities or specific service providers may change.

If adjustments are required:

• Guests will be notified as early as possible

  
  

• We will maintain the same overall experience level

  
  

• We will ensure the trip remains of equal or greater value to what was originally advertised

  
  

Changes are made only when necessary to ensure safety, operational success, and the best possible guest experience.

Roommate Policy

• Trip pricing is based on double occupancy lodging.

  
  

• We will attempt to match solo travelers with a roommate where possible.

  
  

• Guests requesting a private room will be charged a single supplement fee before their final balance is due.

  
  

• Due to limited availability, private rooms cannot always be guaranteed.

  
  

If you book within 60 days of departure, the single supplement must be paid at the time of booking unless a roommate is available.

If a roommate is later found, the supplement will be refunded.
