Cancellation policy

The percentages in the table above are of the full trip price, not of what you’ve paid at the time of booking.

Cancellations made within 48 hours of booking receive a full refund on all plans, including booking fees and insurance. After the 48-hour window, your refund depends on your selected protection plan and when you cancel. Core and Premium plans extend your cancellation rights beyond the Standard policy:

  • With Core, a covered reason gets you 75% of your trip cost back — even the day before you go.
  • With Premium, a covered reason gets you 100% of your trip cost back — and any other reason gets you 75%, right up to the day you leave.
What counts as a covered reason
  • Sudden illness or injury — yours, a travel companion’s, or an immediate family member’s, confirmed by a doctor
  • Death of a traveler or an immediate family member
  • A natural disaster affecting your destination or your departure point
  • A government travel advisory against travel to your destination

Changing your mind isn’t a covered reason. Premium is the only plan that covers that. Documentation is required for all insurance claims.

Everything the travel insurance covers

Both plans include travel insurance through Redpoint Travel Protection. Core insures 75% of your trip cost; Premium insures 100%.

Maximum per person:

  • Trip cancellation — up to 100% of your trip cost
  • Cancel for any reason — up to 75% of your trip cost (Premium only)
  • Trip interruption — 150% of the trip cost limit
  • Trip delay — $200 a day, $1,000 max
  • Itinerary change — $250
  • Single occupancy supplement — up to 100% of trip cost
  • Missed connection — $1,000
  • Travel inconvenience — $250 each, $750 max
  • Pet return — $1,000 per pet
  • Baggage and personal effects — $2,500, max $300 an item
  • Baggage delay — $600, after 12 hours
  • Baggage delivery — $100 per trip
  • Emergency medical expenses — $100,000
  • Medical evacuation and repatriation — up to $1,000,000

These are maximums. What a claim actually pays depends on what you can document and on the policy’s exclusions — pre-existing conditions and undeclared activities among them. We’ll send the full policy wording with your confirmation.

  • This seven-day, women-only trip is built for hikers who want to experience the Grand Canyon without carrying a backpack or camping below the rim. It takes in three very different landscapes: the ponderosa pine forests of Flagstaff, the Grand Canyon's South Rim, and the red rock country around Sedona and Oak Creek Canyon. We spend two nights at a lodge within walking distance of the rim, with day hikes down the historic Grandview and Hermit Trails, then three nights in Sedona hiking Brins Mesa and Airport Mesa. Six nights in hotels and a national park lodge are included, along with all meals from the first dinner through the final breakfast, except one lunch. The daily plan may shift with weather and group interests.

    • Arrive at Flagstaff Pulliam Airport, where the group meets up by 4 pm. From there it’s a short hop to our lodging, tucked among tall ponderosa pines at around 7,000 ft (2,134 m), which gives everyone a head start on acclimatizing. We’ll sit down together for our first dinner, swap introductions, and talk through the week ahead. Then comes the part people tend to remember: a guided visit to Lowell Observatory under Flagstaff’s famously dark skies. You’ll look at stars and planets through powerful telescopes and hear how this place earned its spot in astronomy history, Pluto’s discovery included.

      Meals: Dinner
      Accommodation: Little America Flagstaff (or similar)

      Flagstaff Arizona route 66
    • We get an early start and drive about 1 hour and 40 minutes north to the Grand Canyon. First stop is Mary Colter’s Desert View Watchtower, a pretty great spot for your first look into the canyon. Then we dig into mining history on the Grandview Trail, built by prospector Pete Berry, who struck a copper vein out on Horseshoe Mesa and founded the Last Chance Mine. Pete and his wife Martha later opened the trail to early tourists, which paid better than copper. Hiking out to Coconino Saddle, it’s only 3.5 km (2.2 mi) round trip, but it’s steep, rocky, exposed in places, and all switchbacks. Tonight we check into Maswik Lodge.

      Meals: Breakfast, lunch, dinner
      Distance: 3.5 km (2.2 mi)
      Elevation: +366 m (+1,200 ft) / -366 m (-1,200 ft)
      Accommodation: Maswik Lodge (or similar)

    • Another early start, which becomes the pattern here as we chase the cooler morning hours. Today we head to the far end of the South Rim and drop in from Hermits Trailhead down to Santa Maria Spring, where a small hut gives us shade and a seat before the climb back out. Like Grandview, this is one of the quieter trails on the rim, though crowds weren’t the point: it was built to haul people, pork chops, and bottles of Porto to Hermit Camp, a luxury tourist camp that predated Phantom Ranch by a decade and closed in 1930. We’ll also fit in another Mary Colter building, before or after the hike. Prefer an easier day? There’s a rim walk to Yavapai Point instead, 6.4 km (4 mi) round trip.

      Meals: Breakfast, lunch, dinner
      Distance: 8 km (5 mi)
      Elevation: +536 m (+1,760 ft) / -536 m (-1,760 ft)
      Accommodation: Maswik Lodge (or similar)

      Hermit Trail to Santa Maria Spring — Hiking in Grand Canyon | Arizona
    • After three days on the trails, a slower morning feels good. Spend it however you like: walk a stretch of the rim, sit in on one of the daily ranger programs, drop by the Visitor Center or the Yavapai Geology Museum, or just find a quiet spot and stare at the canyon for a while. Once we regroup, we load up the vans and drive about two hours south to Sedona, trading pine forest for red rock. There’s time to settle into our rooms at the Sky Rock Inn before we head out for dinner and our first evening in town.

      Meals: Breakfast, dinner
      Driving: About 2 hours
      Accommodation: Sky Rock Inn (or similar)

      sedona downtown
    • Sedona sits ringed by red rock buttes, steep canyon walls, and pine forest, and today we get right into it. The Brins Mesa Trail starts at the edge of town, so there’s barely any driving before boots hit dirt. The path opens up quickly and gives us wide, unobstructed views of the formations that made Sedona and Oak Creek Canyon famous. Our route takes in Soldier’s Pass and covers about 8 km (5 mi) with 183 m (600 ft) of elevation change, including a few stretches of slickrock underfoot. We’re back in town with plenty of time to clean up before dinner.

      Meals: Breakfast, lunch, dinner
      Distance: 8 km (5 mi)
      Elevation: 183 m (600 ft)
      Accommodation: Sky Rock Inn (or similar)

    • Today is yours to shape. Anyone who wants to keep moving starts at the Airport Mesa Vortex, one of Sedona’s famous energy spots, then carries on around the Airport Mesa Loop, a 5.6 km (3.5 mi) circuit with an optional 1.6 km (1 mi) out-and-back spur and yet more red rock views. If you’d rather give your legs a break, Sedona makes it easy: spa treatments, art galleries, and shopping are all close at hand, and plenty of people swap boots for a massage after a week of trails. Hike first and browse later, or skip the trail entirely. Either way, we come back together in the evening for a final dinner as a group.

      Meals: Breakfast, lunch, dinner
      Distance: Optional 5.6 km (3.5 mi) loop, with an optional 1.6 km (1 mi) spur
      Accommodation: Sky Rock Inn (or similar)

    • We share one last breakfast together before saying goodbye to canyon country. The drive from Sedona back to Flagstaff takes about 45 minutes, and we’ll have you at the airport by 10:30 am, so book flights out any time after 12 pm.

      Meals: Breakfast

      Hiking in Grand Canyon | Arizona
    • Included:

        • 1 to 2 experienced, local hiking guides depending on group size, with extensive knowledge of the area
        • 7-day guided women’s hiking tour of the Grand Canyon and Sedona, with day hikes only and hotel stays every night
        • Accommodation for 6 nights in hotels and a national park lodge (based on double occupancy, with en suite bathrooms and with your own bed guaranteed)
        • All meals from dinner on day 1 through breakfast on day 7, except one lunch (lodge breakfasts, packed lunches, and restaurant or picnic dinners)
        • All ground transportation during the trip, including pickup and drop-off at Flagstaff Pulliam Airport
        • All park entry fees and permits
        • Guided tour of Lowell Observatory, including admission

      Add-ons (pricing shown at checkout)

        • Single occupancy room

      Not included:

        • Transportation to Flagstaff, Arizona
        • One lunch
        • Alcoholic beverages
        • Optional spa treatments and activities during free time
        • Anything not mentioned in the ‘Included’ section above
        • Insurance — recommended, available at checkout
        • Guide gratuities — optional
    • In order to join this Grand Canyon hotel hiking tour, good fitness is required, and you should be comfortable hiking on steep, rocky terrain. The most you’ll hike within a day is up to 8 km (5 mi), with up to 536 m (1,760 ft) of elevation gain.

      While the overall mileage isn’t high, don’t underestimate the heat, the elevation changes, and the challenge of back-to-back hikes into the Grand Canyon. Canyon trails have significant elevation gain and loss, with rocky, partly unmaintained sections and steep drop-offs. Sedona’s trails are well maintained but include lots of stair-stepping. Flagstaff and the South Rim sit at around 2,134 m (7,000 ft), so the start of the trip helps with acclimatization. In the weeks before the trip, aim for 30 to 45 minutes of aerobic exercise like hill walking, jogging, or stair climbing, three to four times a week. Trekking poles are required for this trip.

    • Most Grand Canyon hiking trips mean carrying a heavy pack and camping below the rim. This one is built around day hikes, so you get to hike down into the canyon on historic trails like the Grandview and Hermit Trails, then head back up to a hot shower and a real bed every night. Two of those nights are at a lodge on the South Rim, within walking distance of the canyon’s edge. The trip also goes beyond the canyon itself, pairing it with Sedona’s red rock trails, an evening at Lowell Observatory, and the Desert View Watchtower. With a small, women-only group of up to nine and free time built in, it’s a more relaxed and personal way to experience the Grand Canyon.

    • Gear:

        • Day pack (25-40L)
        • Water bottles or hydration bladder, with capacity for at least 3L (desert heat and dry air mean you’ll drink more than you expect)
        • Hiking poles (optional, but helpful on the steep, rocky descents into the canyon)
        • Headlamp with fresh batteries for the early starts and the observatory evening

      Clothing & footwear:

        • Sturdy hiking boots or trail shoes with good grip for rocky trails and slickrock
        • Moisture-wicking hiking layers, plus a warm mid-layer for cool mornings at 7,000 ft (2,135 m)
        • Waterproof rain jacket
        • Sunhat with a brim and sunglasses
        • Comfortable clothes for dinners and town time in Sedona
        • Swimsuit for the pool and Jacuzzi in Sedona

      Other:

        • Toiletries, including sunscreen, lip balm, and hand sanitizer
        • Electrolyte mix or salty snacks to keep up with the heat
        • Any personal medications and a small personal first-aid kit
        • Camera (optional, but recommended)

      Dress comfortably and for the weather in clothes you can move in. We suggest bringing clothing appropriate for the season. Layers are best and don’t wear jeans.
