Reservation and Cancellation Policy
Deposit and Reservation Confirmation
A non-refundable deposit of 50% of the total booking cost is required at the time of booking to confirm your reservation. Without this deposit, your reservation will not be valid or held. If you anticipate any delays in making the payment, please contact us in advance. We may be able to offer a short extension, at our discretion, to avoid cancellation of your reservation.
Final Payment and Non-Refundability
The remaining balance must be paid no later than 90 days before your scheduled arrival date. This final payment, like the deposit, is non-refundable.
Date Changes
If you are unable to make the originally booked dates, you are allowed to change the dates of your trip within the same season, subject to availability. If you wish to transfer your trip to a different season, your deposit will be forfeited, and a new deposit will be required to secure the new booking. All changes must be coordinated with us in advance.
Travel Insurance
We strongly recommend that all guests purchase travel insurance to protect their trip investment. Travel insurance can provide coverage for unexpected events such as illness, weather disruptions, personal emergencies, or other unforeseen circumstances that may prevent you from traveling. As our deposit and final payments are non-refundable, having travel insurance can offer you peace of mind and financial protection in case of cancellations, delays, or other trip interruptions beyond your control. Please review your insurance options carefully to ensure you are fully covered
We strongly recommend that guests purchase Travel Insurance.
Travel Insurance will help protect you against last minute illness, changes and cancellations.

Getting To Rio Manso
Most travel to Rio Manso Lodge starts with an international flight to Buenos Aires. Many major airlines fly into Argentina’s capital city. From North America, Delta, United and American all offer regular flights.
Once you arrive at Ezeiza (EZE), the international airport, you will likely have to transfer to the domestic airport, Jorge Newbury (AEP), to continue your journey. Although there are some direct flights to Bariloche, they rarely coordinate with the international arrival times. Many guests take this opportunity to spend a day or two in Buenos Aires, a beautiful city known as the “Paris of the South”.
Should you decide to continue directly to the lodge, there are multiple flights daily from Buenos Aires to Bariloche (BRC), the airport closest to Rio Manso Lodge. Bariloche is perhaps the best served airport in Patagonia with a dozen or more flights each day from the capitol.
Be sure to allow at least 4 hours between arrival at EZE and departure from AEP to allow for clearing customs, transferring between airports, and checking in for your domestic flight. Aerolineas Argentinas and JETsmart both fly to Bariloche. A Rio Manso Lodge representative will meet you at the airport for the 1 ½ hour drive to the lodge.
