Traveler’s Insurance
It is a condition of booking any tour, itinerary, or package with the Company that the client is adequately insured for the full duration of the tour in respect to illness, injury, death, loss of baggage and personal items, cancellation, and/or all other matters of such kind.
Traveler’s insurance is a typical form of special insurance during international travel.
The choice of the insurer is the sole discretion of the client, however the Company may assist with recommendations.
Weather
Some tours may require modification due to weather in order to safeguard against hazardous conditions.
We recommend traveler’s insurance to help protect against any unforeseen circumstances.
Travelers Needing Special Assistance
You must report any disability requiring special attention to the company at the time the reservation is made. The Company will make reasonable efforts to accommodate the special needs of tour participants. Such participants, however, should be aware that the Tanzania with Disabilities Act is inapplicable outside of the United States and facilities outside the United States for disabled individuals are limited. It is strongly recommended that persons requiring assistance be accompanied by a companion who is capable of and totally responsible for providing the assistance. Neither the Company nor its personnel, nor its subcontractors, may physically lift or assist clients into transportation vehicles. If a traveler thinks he or she might need assistance during a trip, he or she should call the Company to determine what assistance might reasonably be given. The Company cannot provide special individual assistance to tour members with special needs for walking, dining, or other routine activities.
Young Travelers
Travelers who are under 18 years old on the departure date must be accompanied by an adult throughout the vacation, and are requested to share an adult’s accommodation.
The client will be responsible for contacting the airline for any special requirements regarding airline tickets for children.
Due to heightened security, many countries have adopted practices to prevent international abductions of children. If a child will be traveling with adults other than the parents or with only one parent, it is recommended that a notarized letter be written by the parents or non-traveling parent granting authorization to travel, including the dates of travel. We suggest that you also contact the appropriate consulate and airlines because they may have additional requirements or recommendations.
Flexibility
The client appreciates and acknowledges that the nature of this type of travel requires considerable flexibility and should allow for alternatives. The itinerary as given for each tour must therefore be taken as an indication of what each client may accomplish and not as a contractual obligation on the part of the Company.
It is understood that the route, itineraries, amenities, and mode of transport may be subject to alteration without prior notice due to circumstances or events which may include sickness, mechanical breakdown, flight strikes, cancellations, political disputes, religious disputes, entry or border difficulties, weather, and/or any other unpredictable circumstances.
