Trip Insurance
Trip insurance is a good choice. It pays to be prepared for the unexpected. If we cancel a trip, you receive a full refund. Low-cost travel insurance is highly recommended and provides emergency evacuation, essential coverage including sportsman's equipment, trip cancellation & interruption, medical expenses, baggage damage, and much more.

Guide Gratuities
When you are budgeting for gratuities (tips), figure in 15 percent for an average level of service from a guide, but not less than 10 percent. Guides get a large percentage of their income from tips. Of course if a guide makes an exceptional effort - fishing an extra hour or goes beyond the norm or working especially hard to put you on fish - Tipping more than 15 percent makes good sense. Tips are greatly appreciated for a job well done.
