Payment and Cancellation Policy for Montana Fly Fishing Trips
Payment is required to secure a reservation at the time of booking. We require a 50% deposit if the trip is booked 30 or more days prior to the trip. If the trip is booked within 30 days, the payment is due in full.
Cancellation fees will be applied as follows: Cancellations over 90 days prior will be refunded minus the 3% credit card fee and a $100 booking fee. Less than 90 days before arrival there are no refunds or credits. Due to the advanced nature of our bookings we do not make exceptions to our cancellation policy. Montana weather and river conditions are often variable, trips are not cancelled due to unusual weather or river conditions. We fish rain or shine! Cancellations on our end would be due to unsafe conditions. In this unlikely situation, we offer a full refund.
We strongly recommend you to purchase trip insurance. We partner with Global Rescue to offer this. Global Rescue’s Signature Travel and Signature Plus (Cancel for any Reason) Insurance allows you insure all of your expenses and covers all activities. While a Signature Travel Insurance policy can be purchased at any time, purchasing a policy within 20 days of making your initial trips deposit gives you the widest range of policy options specifically to cancel for any reason.

Blackfoot River Outfitters is solely a booking agent for destination trips and does not operate the lodging or guide services. Requests to move a scheduled trip date are the same as cancelling and re-booking. Blackfoot River Outfitters is not responsible for any loss, damage or injury arising while traveling, fishing or practicing any other activity. Because of our reliance on advanced bookings, we must make no exceptions to our cancellation policy. Adverse weather conditions are possible on any trip and in some situations can negatively affect fishing conditions or loss of fishing days. Refunds are not made if fishing days are lost due to adverse weather-related conditions. If unexpected events such as global pandemics, wars, travel restrictions, etc. prevent the trip from occurring, Blackfoot River Outfitters will work directly with our destination partner to assist in exploring any deviation from the standard policy, but guests should understand that trip funds are forwarded to the lodge in advance of travel and any deviation from the standard policy is at the sole discretion of the destination partner. If you are at all concerned with a cancellation possibility, we strongly encourage you to purchase trip insurance.
