African
Dreams Booking
Terms & Conditions
All
pricing and itineraries subject to final
confirmation.
- Deposit
In order to confirm a reservation African Dreams
requires a 40% non-refundable deposit immediately
and the balance of payment is required 56 days (8
weeks) prior to arrival.
- Cancellation
Cancellation
outside 30 days will result in a loss of deposit.
Cancellation at 14 days or less will incur a
cancellation fee of 100% of total cost. African
Dreams reserves the right to cancel all services
booked by African Dreams should full payment not
be received prior to arrival.
For short lead-time bookings, African Dreams would
allow for 5 days from time of confirmation until
payment reaches us before African Dreams would
cancel any services booked.
- Method
of Payment
Payments are processed with American Express,
Delta, Diners Club, Maestro, Visa and MasterCard.
Payments can also be paid directly into Africa
Dreams’ account.
However, all payment must be made in full and free
of any bank charges.
- Travel
Insurance
All clients must take out comprehensive travel
insurance covering them for personal effects,
personal accident, medical and emergency travel
expenses, cancellation and curtailment as the
booking will be subject to cancellation penalties
as detailed above.
- Visas
and Passports
It
is important that you thoroughly check your visa
requirements before your intended date of travel,
as African Dreams cannot be held responsible
should necessary visa requirements not be
fulfilled. All visitors to South Africa are
required by law to have a minimum of two blank
pages in their passport to enable the entry visa
to be issued. If there is insufficient space in
the passport, entry will be denied and the person
is likely to be detained pending return to their
country of origin.
- Air
tickets
In order to comply with international insurance
requirements all airline tickets must clearly show
the passenger’s title, name and surname (as
indicated in their passport). As this applies to
both scheduled and charter flights we would be
grateful if you could provide us with this
information at the time of your reservation.
The air fare and airport tax quoted are current
and are subject to change without prior warning
should the airline impose an increase in rates for
any reason. Should the fare quoted not be
available at the time of booking the next
applicable fare will be booked and amended costs
advised accordingly. Please note that fares may
increase between time of booking, time of payment
and the ticket being issued.
African Dreams cannot be held responsible should
airlines discontinue flights on certain routings
or change scheduled timetables resulting in missed
connections. Should an amendment in routing or
itinerary be necessary, any additional costs
incurred will not be borne by African Dreams.
- General
- Malaria
It
is important that you take precautions against
malaria prior to the commencement of your
holiday. We recommend that you contact your doctor, pharmacist
or travel advisory clinic for advice on the
Malaria areas and as to which prophylactic is
recommended.
- Yellow
fever
Yellow fever vaccinations are no longer a
legal requirement for entry into Tanzania or
Zanzibar. Please note however that your
country of origin, or other countries visited
on your tour may require this certificate upon
your re-entry. Please confirm with a travel
clinic prior to travel.
- Dietary
requirements
Any special dietary requirements must be
advised at time of booking or well in advance
of check-in. We will do our utmost to comply
with your requirements

/ shorts. The best colours are khaki, beige
and white. Light cotton, long sleeved clothing
is recommended for game drives. Evenings can
be cool/cold on game drives and some form of
jersey or windbreaker is recommended even
during the summer months
