Most of these changes will be minor, and, in all cases, you will be advised at the earliest opportunity. If a significant change occurs, you will have the choice of either accepting the change, purchasing another trip from River Valley (if this involves a difference in price, you are responsible to pay any increase and River Valley will refund any decrease), or canceling your trip and receiving a full refund. If a minor change occurs within 60-days of the departure date and results in additional expenses to you, River Valley will compensate you for any such reasonable expenses up to $80NZ per person. To claim such compensation, you must submit to River Valley receipts for such expenses within 14-days of the conclusion of your trip. No refunds or compensation will be payable for minor changes, and no claim for compensation or expenses will be accepted. 7.

In such situations, there can unfortunately be no refunds or compensation of any amount. 9. The prices of trips are subject to change.
