How does planning work?
Build a trip in our online Trip Builder for Kenya, or tell us what you have in mind. A safari consultant checks availability with each property, then confirms the final price. Nothing is booked or charged online.
What is the estimate, and what is it not?
The estimate is a price range based on the comfort level, dates, and party you choose. It is not a fixed quote or a booking confirmation, and nothing is held or charged. Your consultant confirms the real price once availability is checked.
How do I pay?
Bank transfer, cash, or M-Pesa are recorded today. Online card payments are coming. Your consultant will confirm the exact method for your invoice.
How much deposit do I need to pay?
A 40 percent deposit confirms your booking, with the balance due before travel. Your consultant will give you the exact dates and amounts on your invoice.
What does residency change about my price?
Kenyan citizens, Kenyan residents, and East African citizens or residents pay different park fees and, for some parks, a different currency than non-residents. You choose your residency in the Trip Builder, and it never affects anything except park fees and currency.
Which currency will I see?
Non-residents see prices in US dollars. Kenyan citizens and residents see prices in Kenyan shillings. This follows directly from the residency you choose.
What is your cancellation policy?
Your trip is confirmed at quotation. A formal cancellation policy page is coming soon. Ask your consultant for the current terms before you pay a deposit.
