ITINERARIES:

Demand for Safaris is very high and can lead to a shortage of lodge/hotel accommodation at times during some seasons. All bookings will be confirmed by us in writing as we confirm beforehand from our suppliers. On occasion, changes may be necessary. Hotels/lodges/camps where specifically named are given as an indication of the category, and rooms may be reserved at similar hotels/lodges/camps. We undertake to advise you of any changes (Either on accommodations, tour routes etc.) known to us prior to departure, but the possibility of change without notice, must be accepted when booking. This rarely happens.

Single rooms are available at supplementary cost. Safari four wheel drive vehicles or coaches will be provided according to the route and number of participants and as confirmed to you in your booking confirmation. The right is reserved to employ the services of sub-contractors if necessary. English speaking chauffeur/guides are provided. Occasional mechanical problems, changes of lodge or adverse road conditions may in turn end to a changed routing or game viewing without prior notice being given. We reserve the right therefore to offer substitutes of equal value or to cancel the operation of any tour. In practice very few itineraries are affected but a little flexibility, on your part, will ensure that your tour is unique and rewarding.

LIABILITY:

a) The company is insured against legal liabilities arising from injuries, which might be received by passengers while in its vehicles. You are however strongly advised to take out your own insurance against the risks inherent in traveling in an undeveloped country especially as there may be times
when your tour visits remote regions without the means of rapid evacuation and medical facilities. Please remember that your Supplier does not undertake to provide such assistance at its expense, hence our strong recommendation that you arrange your own insurance to cover such eventualities.
b) The company and its agents act only as agents of the passenger in all matters relating to hotel accommodation, sightseeing, tour and transport, whether by aircraft, rail, motor coach, ship, boat, or any matter howsoever except when the passenger is being carried in transport owned by the company.

c) The company’s obligations apply to those services, which they agree to provide on your behalf. We cannot be held liable for any third party arrangements you arrange in conjunction on your own. For example we cannot be held liable if you miss your tour departure because you fail to arrive at the departure point at the agreed time.

d) The company’s liability to passengers carried in its own vehicle governed by the laws of the respective country and all claims are subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of the respective country and all claims are subject to jurisdiction of the courts of the respective country in which services are provided.

e) The company reserves the right to employ sub-contractors to carry out all or part of the services agreed to be supplied and in the event of the exercise of such right the terms relating to the Company’s liability shall apply.
