Trip Cancellation Insurance is STRONGLY recommended and participants are solely responsible for obtaining insurance. We recommend a highly rated company like Travel Guard or Allianz.

If you buy CFAR—typically as an upgrade when you purchase travel insurance—it allows you to cancel your trip for reasons not listed in the standard policy. CFAR gives you flexibility: you can cancel because you changed your mind, have a fear of travel, financial reasons, or other personal situations.
All cancellations must be made in writing to Tabi Journeys (Terravive LLC) as soon as possible and before the trip begins. Our email address is: info@tabijourneys.com.
Keep in mind that once your trip payments become non-refundable as delineated in our cancellation policy above, there will be NO refunds, and you will need to report your cancellation to your trip cancellation insurance provider for reimbursement.
