opt-in = Along for the Ride Participants (choice of 3), Yoga Package Participants (choice of 3), and add-ons for any package
*For the safety of our clients, the Waterfall Tour is weather-dependent and will not run if we determine the water levels to be unsafe. If the tour is not available, a replacement activity will be offered as far ahead of time as possible to allow participants an alternate activity option.
Note: Activities are scheduled in a way that will allow any package participant to add-on activities that are not included in their original package. This is subject to availability at the time of add-on, so the sooner you let us know you'd like an add-on, the better your chances of being able to join that activity!
