Karuna Project may remove or evacuate a guest from the trip at any time, in its sole and absolute discretion, for any behavior that may endanger Karuna Project’s personnel, guests, contractors, and vendors, or Karuna Projects’s reputation with personnel, guests, contractors, and vendors.

Karuna Project may remove a guest from the trip at any time, in its sole and absolute discretion, if the guest’s health or physical condition is such that it may endanger the guest or others.

If Guest is removed from the Trip for reasons related to health or physical condition, Karuna Project may, but is not obligated to, work with Guest to secure alternative travel arrangements.

Guest may leave the trip at any time. However, Guest acknowledges that there will be times when it will be extremely dangerous to leave the trip.
