How confirmation works.
Three steps. Zero risk until the tour is guaranteed to run.

Find your tour
Browse tours by region, species, or date. See quorum progress at a glance.

Commit conditionally
Pay a small deposit to signal commitment. Fully refunded if quorum isn't reached.

Tour confirms
Once quorum is reached, the tour is guaranteed. Pay the balance and you're set.
If quorum is not reached? The tour does not run. Your deposit is fully refunded. You are never charged for a tour that doesn't happen.
Why this is different.
Traditional booking platforms transfer uncertainty to you. Quorum resolves it first.
You book a tour hoping others will too. If turnout is low, the experience suffers or cancels last-minute.
Tours only run when enough participants have committed. Confirmation is guaranteed before you travel.
Operators guess at demand and schedule speculatively. Underbooked tours lose money; overbooked tours decline quality.
Operators see real demand before committing resources. Tours run at optimal group sizes.
Refund policies vary. Cancellation fees apply. You bear the risk of uncertainty.
Conditional commitment means no charge until confirmation. The risk is on the system, not you.
What Quorum does not do: We do not guarantee sightings, weather, or personal compatibility. We guarantee that if you commit, you will know whether the tour runs before you are charged.
