We highly recommend travel insurance for many reasons, one of them being that packages and payments are non-refundable. This is because as soon as you book, we need to confirm your permits on Kilimanjaro, on the Serengeti and in the Ngorongoro Crater.
However, if you need to cancel and if you purchased cancellation insurance, you may place a claim for the entire amount of your deposit(s) and/or payment(s) assuming that you are cancelling for insurable reasons. Those that have Cancel For Any Reason coverage do not need to have an insurable reason to cancel, but may not be entitled to receive a 100% refund.
As we have to order park and hike permits and more as soon as you book with us to secure your space, the following non-refundable cancellation fees will apply:
- $250 for cancellations after placing your deposit
- 50% of your package amount for cancellations 120 days or more prior to departure
- 100% of package amount for cancellations 119 days or less, prior to departure
We highly recommend purchasing travel insurance! With paid insurance you will be able to cancel for insurable reasons as well as running injuries (doctor's letter required) while training! Note that your credit card most-likely does not have nearly enough coverage! OR get CFAR (Cancel For Any Reason) coverage with certain policies from us when you purchase your coverage within 72 hours of placing your initial deposit!
