QUARANTINE DURING A RETREAT
We will follow policies and advice of the local authorities and your retreat leader will assist you as much as possible.

Direct all coverage questions directly to your provider.
We recommend a contingency fund for unavoidable situations such as severe weather, natural disasters and civil unrest when you travel. With this in mind, we recommend you carry $500 for medical expenses in case it is needed. Please note that Her Infinite Worth is not responsible for additional costs due to quarantines and/or medical sickness.
TRAVEL RESTRICTIONS
If Her Infinite Worth is forced to cancel or postpone a retreat due to travel restrictions after the trip had been confirmed, you have the following options:
1) Transfer your retreat payment (less any non-refundable costs already paid to suppliers) to the same retreat in the future, or to a different retreat. Tell us which retreat you choose and we will apply all remaining funds to your new booking. The $100 book transfer fee does not apply.
2) Put your payment (less any non-refundable costs already paid to our suppliers) on file as credit with no expiration date.
3) Request a refund of your retreat payment less any non-refundable costs already paid to our suppliers. We work with our suppliers within each destination to minimize the amount of non-refundable costs and recover as much of your money as possible.
CANCELLATION OF A RETREAT BY Her Infinite Worth
Her Infinite Worth reserves the right to cancel any retreat for any reason, but will not cancel a retreat less than 30 days before the retreat start date except for unusual or unforeseen circumstances outside Her Infinite Worth’s control.

Her Infinite Worth is not responsible for any incidental expenses or consequential losses that the Client may have incurred as a result of the booking such as visas, vaccinations, non-refundable flights or rail, non-refundable car parking or other fees, loss of earnings, or loss of enjoyment, etc.
If the Client is offered a refund but requests an alternate retreat of a higher value than that originally booked, then the Client must pay the difference in price. Where after departure a significant element of the trip contracted for cannot be provided, Her Infinite Worth will make suitable alternative arrangements for the continuation of the trip. If it is not possible to provide a suitable alternative or the Client reasonably rejects any suitable alternatives, Her Infinite Worth will provide the Client a refund of unused tour portions. Where a significant alteration or cancellation occurs which is not due to Force Majeure or other circumstances beyond the Her Infinite Worth’s control, Her Infinite Worth will in some circumstances offer compensation. Significant alterations do not include the substitution of a transportation method, modification of itineraries, change in hotel accommodation or meal offering.
