The role of Africa Bed of Roses Safaris Ltd, is to tailor-make tours and itineraries to fit the requirements of our customers. In doing so, we may use independent suppliers for the provision of selected services. Whatever the case, we accept responsibility for the proper
performance of your contract with us subject to the following booking conditions.

Published prices are based on costs at the time of publication. We reserve the right to change published prices at any time before your booking is made.

A deposit of 40% of the total invoice must be paid on receiving our invoice and the remainder 60% days before commencement of our services. If payment is not made by the due date, we reserve the right to treat the booking as having
been cancelled by you, and apply cancellation charges as set out in paragraph 4(a) below.

If this should happen (other than due to your default in paying) we will offer the choice of an alternative arrangement (paying or receiving a refund in respect of any price difference) or receiving a full refund of all monies paid. If an arrangement is cancelled because an insufficient number of people have booked a scheduled tour, notification will be given no less than 14 days before commencement of our services. If we are forced to curtail a tour after departure due to circumstances amounting to “force majeure”, we regret we cannot make any refunds or pay any compensation or be responsible for any costs or expenses incurred by you as a result.

We reserve the right to make changes to holiday arrangements both before and after your booking is made. Most changes will be minor. If we have to make significant changes to an arrangement you will be notified at the earliest possible opportunity. In such cases you will have the choice of either accepting the change or booking alternative arrangements (paying or receiving a refund in respect of any price difference) or cancelling your holiday and receiving an immediate full refund of all monies paid.

• Risks, insurance and liability Travelling in undeveloped areas may inevitably give rise to risks and dangers including, inter alia, those inherent in travel by boat, train, road, vehicles, aircraft or other means, forces of nature, political unrest and accident or illness in remote regions without means of rapid evacuation or medical facilities. We do not undertake to provide medical care and our standard terms and conditions exclude liability for the adequacy of any care that may be provided.
