How Payment Works
Every safari is custom-quoted, so payment begins only once you are happy with your itinerary. A deposit confirms your journey and the partner arrangements, and the balance is settled before you travel — comfortably, and on a schedule that works for you.
We accept most popular payment methods used across Europe and North America, and offer payment plans so the cost of a once-in-a-lifetime trip can be spread over time rather than paid all at once.
