Our Terms & Conditions philosophy explained:


Embarking on a journey with Right Path Adventures means diving into a world curated by Gary P. Scott, a seasoned explorer with over 40 years of global guiding experience. With a pristine safety record spanning countless expeditions, including two triumphant team ascents of Mount Everest, Gary has crafted over 50 Himalayan expeditions and over 300 European tours, ensuring unforgettable experiences for every adventurer who joins our ranks.

Our treks aren’t just about ticking destinations off a list; they’re about forging lasting connections with fellow travelers amid breathtaking landscapes. We pride ourselves on delivering top-tier accommodations, delectable cuisine, and off-the-grid excursions that redefine adventure.

As a boutique operation, we meticulously plan each journey. We host intimate groups of 6 to 12 guests, totaling around 200 adventurers annually. Our commitment to quality ensures that every tour is a standout experience, with a significant portion of our guests returning year after year.

While we strive to keep costs competitive, unforeseen cancellations can pose challenges. When guests book with us, they secure a spot held exclusively for them, making it difficult to resell in case of a cancellation. Moreover, our partnerships with small, family-run hotels necessitate upfront payments, adding to our financial responsibilities.

We’ve implemented a cancellation policy to mitigate these risks that balances flexibility and practicality. While cancellations incur administrative fees and sometimes hotel booking fees, clients have ten days to cancel once a deposit has been made. We offer a ten-day cancellation option after booking a tour and the option to transfer deposits (minus some fees) to future tours within 24 months, easing the process for our guests.

Additionally, our commitment to transparency extends to our terms and conditions, ensuring that every traveler knows what to expect. From age restrictions to safety protocols, we prioritize the well-being and enjoyment of everyone on our tours.
