Pricing and Deposit

Your registration fee includes the trip races, activities, and double occupancy accommodations. It also includes transportation within the host country, most meals and drinks, and swag items. Itinerary details are subject to change, but we will always offer a comparable alternative.

The Deposit

A deposit of $500 is due at registration. Solo travelers who opt to have a single room (aka no roommate) during the trip will also need to pay an additional $800 at the time of registration to secure a single room.

Making Payments

After registration and the initial deposit, you will receive an invoice for the remaining balance. The remaining balance is due 5 months prior to the trip. You will receive monthly reminder emails to pay the remaining balance. Invoice payments can be made online at any time and at any amount.

Using Credits

If you have accrued race credits that you would like to use toward your Global Adventures payments, you may do so. Credits are earned by volunteering at our domestic events. You can also transfer credits from one of our domestic events to use toward your Global Adventures registration.

Room Occupancy

Trip pricing is based on double occupancy of all hotel rooms. If you register with a partner, you will be able to room with them. If you register as a solo adventurer, we will pair you with someone else of the same gender in a hotel room. We try to use factors like your age, location, and other information you provide to pair you with a compatible roommate.

Single Occupancy Upgrade: If you prefer to have your hotel room to yourself, the cost will be an additional $800 to cover the additional hotel expenses.

Refunds & Transfers

If you have registered for the Super Secret Global Adventures trip and are no longer able to travel, you have a few options. Your options change as we get closer to the trip, so please be mindful of this.

Option 1: Transfer your registration to another event

3+ month(s) before the trip, you can transfer your registration to another trip minus a $100 processing fee. This transfer must be made by the end of day on January 8, 2023. This transfer is good for any location and must be used by December 31st of the following year of the original trip.

This trip is scheduled for April 2023, which means you can transfer your registration to any event through December 31, 2024.

If the trip you transfer to has a higher value than the trip you transferred from, you are responsible for paying the difference. At times, it is necessary for us to amend our trip pricing due to changes in market costs. Latest trip pricing will always be listed on our website.

2-3 months before the trip, you can transfer your registration to another trip but the value of your original trip will be reduced by $1,500 to account for non-refundable booking + travel fees that we have paid to our in-country hosts and airlines. This means that you may owe additional payments on the new trip that you transfer to.

Transfers made between January 9, 2023 and February 8, 2023 are subject to this policy.

2 months or less before the trip, you may transfer your registration to another trip minus a $3,500 fee to account for non-refundable costs that we have paid to our in-country hosts and airlines.

Transfers made February 9, 2023 or later are subject to this policy.

Option 2: Transfer your registration to another participant

You can transfer your registration to another person for free until March 1, 2023.

You are responsible for finding the replacement. The replacement participant must have traveled with Global Adventures before.

The replacement participant must fit the same room configuration that you had booked for yourself. For example, if you had plans to travel with a friend and room together, the recipient will be placed with your original roommate. If you were traveling solo and requested to be paired with another traveler, we would pair the recipient with another guest of the same gender.

You and the recipient are responsible for squaring up financially.

If you are having significant trouble finding someone to receive your registration, please contact us and we may be able to help

Option 3: Cancel + Receive a Refund

Refunds are only available for trips that are happening in the future. You cannot receive a refund for an event that has passed. Further, you cannot receive a refund for a deferred registration. If your registration meets these two criteria, your refund options are as follows.
