For MULTI DAY CUSTOM programs please start your planning 6-9 months in advance if not sooner so that we may secure the best river launch dates or motel reservations. Once you select your trip and dates, we require a reservation/planning fee of $250.00 to reserve the dates. We will allow time for you to "sell the trip to your group" and then request an additional deposit per person depending upon length and services, due 4-6 months prior to your trip with final payment due 30 days prior. We work with one individual as group coordinator who plans, recruits, handles registration and collects fees and forms from individuals in your group then makes single payments and relays forms to CFI. Once the group minimum is met, the group coordinator receives a discount (see each type of trip for details.) Final payment is due 30 days prior.
