Cancellation and Modification Policies

  • Cancellations made less than 30 days prior to the start date are non-refundable. The visit may be rescheduled, depending on park availability, with an additional 10% fee of the total booking amount.
  • The Corcovado National Park Administration may cancel bookings without prior notice in circumstances beyond its control (natural disasters, unexpected closures, government regulations, etc.). In such cases, the visit will be rescheduled at no additional cost.

General Rules

  • If the client does not show up at the agreed meeting point, or arrives more than 15 minutes late —especially for tours to Corcovado— it will be considered a No-Show. In this case, no refund, rescheduling, or future credit applies.
  • Osa Outdoors Adventures does not guarantee ideal weather conditions nor the sighting of specific wildlife species. These depend on natural, uncontrollable factors and are not grounds for partial or full refunds.
  • The client must inform us in advance of any relevant medical condition. Failure to disclose this information exempts Osa Outdoors Adventures from responsibility for incidents, complications, limitations, or service interruptions and may result in denial of participation without refund.
  • Changes requested by the client to route, duration, transportation, or other services do not generate refunds.
  • Refunds will only be processed via PayPal or national bank transfer.
  • Osa Outdoors Adventures will not cover bank fees or costs arising from refunds.
  • All requests must be sent in writing to: info@osaoutdoorsadventures.com

Important Notes

  • Before making any payment, the client must receive a formal quote and confirmation of the total amount due.
  • It is the client’s responsibility to verify that all agreed dates and information are correct.
  • Once the service has been provided, no refunds will be issued.
  • It is recommended to confirm availability before making any transfer to guarantee space on the requested date.
  • International transfer fees must be covered by the client.
