| How to book your trip
Our groups are small, so space is limited. We recommend
that you call as early as possible to ensure space is available
on your desired departure date. Many guests book about a year
in advance.
Call us at 1-800-235-0289 to reserve your space.
A $500 non-refundable deposit will hold your place on most
of our safaris for up to 91 days prior to your trip departure.
Private and custom trips, the Serengeti & Selous Safari,
the Luxury Family Safari and the Luxury Tanzania Safari require
a $700 per person deposit. Any extensions require an additional
$200 minimum deposit.
For any of our December Holiday departures, an additional
$200 deposit is required.
Visa, MasterCard and American Express are accepted for
your trip deposit.
Single supplement
Each trip has a single supplement fee for those traveling
without a companion. However, if you are traveling alone and
would like to share a room, every effort will be made to match
you with a roommate. We will invoice you for the single supplement
initially, and delete the charge if you are matched with a
roommate.

your space. This deposit is non-refundable. Visa, MasterCard
