This page provides you details of the costs of your challenge.
The costs below are per person.
This challenge is ground only. This means you will need to organise travel to arrive at the starting point of the itinerary in the host country and to return home at the end of the challenge. You will be provided with details of where and when to arrive and depart but please do budget for the appropriate travel arrangements.
You will need to send your sponsorship money to the charity as you raise it. At least 80% of the minimum sponsorship required must be sent to the charity 12 weeks before departure (by 25/12/2023), and the remaining 20% within 4 weeks of completing the challenge (by 22/04/2024). If you have raised the necessary funds, the charity will then pay the balance of your challenge costs. The charity benefits by keeping the remaining sponsorship money and every pound over and above that you raise.
The typical group size is 20 - 30 participants
The costs and sponsorship levels on our website are based on a minimum of 20 participants. We can run this trip with 15-19 people, but there will be a small group supplement of C$125.00. This is payable by your charity if you book under the Minimum Sponsorship or Flexi options, and by yourself if you choose the Self Funder option. We will notify you 12 weeks before departure if this is necessary.
(*subject to availability)
You will need to take out a comprehensive travel insurance policy which covers among other things, medical (emergency, evacuation and repatriation) arrangements, cancellation and curtailment of the challenge, and more specifically for the adventurous activities undertaken on this challenge. For more general travel insurance questions, please refer to our main FAQs page.
We are aware that a number of our participants from outside of Europe have used a company called World Nomads for their insurance cover and have spoken highly of them. We do not specifically endorse the company as we have not vetted them, so please do your own due diligence on the cover provided and policy exclusions.
Please read the points below carefully and complete all the fields on the Travel Insurance Disclaimer.
