Custom Tours - the not-so-fine print
• Multiple day arrangements are custom-designed, and therefore custom-priced.
• Upon request and with enough advance notice, we can provide quotes for all-inclusive private tours (i.e. we plan your lodging, meals, vehicle rental, etc). A small planning fee may apply.
• Published rates cover guiding fees only. All other expenses remain your responsibility, including your meals, lodging, etc. (Obviously this does not apply to the all-inclusive tours!)
• Our guides typically bring their own food for the day, but do not tend to refuse the generosity of our clients when offered!
• A 25% deposit is required for each trip. This deposit becomes non-refundable two weeks from your scheduled tour date. If you need to reschedule, the deposit will be applied to the new date.
• Mileage surcharge for using our vehicles: $0.35/mi (SUV) or $0.25/mi (sedan), starting from our residence. Please note we can only offer these vehicles when they are available, so it may be wise to rent your own and list your guide as an additional driver.
• The above mileage surcharge also applies to any distance (round trip) should we need to drive to a certain location to meet you. We hate to do it, but rising fuel and maintenance costs are making this necessary...
• Our SUV is primarily reserved for travel to California Gulch and similar 4WD roads, and may not be available at all times. Please inquire with us first.
• We do offer ethically guided searches for owls and nightjars ("nocturnal birding"). For those already on a full day tour, this is covered by the hourly rate beyond 10 hours.
• We are only able to offer guided nocturnal birding independently of a full day if we are not already scheduled for a full day on the same date, and charge a base fee of $25/person, plus $10/hour per group (1-4 people) beyond the first hour.
• Please contact us for any additional details.
