BOOKING
PROCEDURES
Bookings for groups (20+) will be accepted by letter or fax
and via telephone for individuals, commencing October 1st.
We encourage you to submit your requests well in advance of
your travel date.
Upon acceptance of your booking, a letter of confirmation
will be forwarded to you. The Railway reserves the right to
accept, reject or cancel any booking. Please check your confirmation
carefully to ensure that the date of your tour and the number
of persons corresponds with your original request. Any errors

by phone, fax or letter.

We have the capacity to accommodate up to 48 snowmobilers
per trip.
EXCESS BAGGAGE AND EXPRESS
Passengers are allowed 100 lbs. of personal baggage free of

commodities, such as gas. We encourage you to contact the
Railway well in advance of your travel date, should you require
clarification.
PAYMENT
We accept Cash, Travellers Cheques, Certified Cheques, Bank Money Orders, Visa, Mastercard and Interac Direct Payment.
U.S. Funds are currently at a premium in Canada. In order
to receive the best exchange rate, we strongly recommend that
our U.S. customers use Visa or Mastercard or purchase Canadian
dollars or Travellers Cheques at U.S. financial institutions
prior to departure. We do accept U.S. funds, however, we encourage
you to take advantage of this savings opportunity. Visa and
Mastercard purchases are processed in Canadian funds and will
be converted to U.S. funds by your bank and/or financial institution.

Algoma Central Railway requires a deposit of $50 per sled
and GROUPS of 20 or MORE are required to pay a $500

circumstances, the Railway reserves the right to increase
the amount of deposit required. Failure to meet the
deposit requirements will unfortunately result in cancellation
of your booking.
CANCELLATIONS
Cancellations 30 DAYS OR MORE prior to travel date will receive
a full refund of the original tour deposit. When cancellations
are received LESS THAN 30 DAYS from travel date, any refund
will be forfeited unless cancellation is the result of poor
snow conditions.

Any additions to the number of persons booked will be accepted
up to SEVEN (7) DAYS prior to travel date BASED ON AVAILABILITY.
A reduction in number of people booked will be accepted without
penalty, when notice is received by the Railway at least SEVEN
