Warrior Trails Booking terms and conditions

Thank you for your interest in booking a safari with Warrior Trails. A deposit of 30% of the tour cost is required at the time of booking, with the balance due not later than 90 days before commencement of the safari tour. Payment in full is required where bookings are made less than 30 days before the tour begins.

Notwithstanding any prior confirmation of arrangements, the right is reserved not to execute tours if payment has not been received in accordance with the foregoing. A 50% deposit is required if booking 10 weeks before an intended departure, with the balance to be settled 30 days prior to commencement of the tour.

Upon receipt of the required deposit, and subject to availability, we will reserve your place on your selected safari. In the event that any accommodation is not available, we will substitute a comparable property or adjust the itinerary, if necessary, without compromising the integrity of the overall safari experience, as determined in our reasonable discretion.

Cancellations are only effective upon Warrior Trails’ receipt of written notification, signed by the guest. In the event of cancellations received by Warrior Trails 90 days or more prior to departure, the deposit will be refunded less the cost of expenses incurred. Cancellations received 89-61 days prior to departure are subject to a cancellation penalty of 50% of the total trip price.

Cancellations received 60 days or less prior to departure are subject to a cancellation penalty of 100% of the total trip price. No trip refund is available should you fail to arrive for your safari or join it after departure or leave it prior to its completion. There will be no refunds from Warrior Trails for any unused portions of your safari. IT IS THEREFORE STRONGLY RECOMMENDED THAT YOU SECURE TRIP AND CANCELLATION INSURANCE.

Although every effort is made to adhere to schedules, routes, lodges and camps occasionally may change while on safari as dictated by changing conditions. Such conditions may be caused by seasonal rainfall on bush tracks, airfields and in game areas, by game migrations from one region to another, lodge and camp overbookings, airline delays and schedule changes or other booking problems or the like.
