Comprehensive Travel Insurance with African Safaris Ltd

Comprehensive travel insurance is mandatory for all guests booking safaris through African Safaris Ltd. Prior to your trip, you’ll need to provide your travel insurance details, including the company name, contact information, and policy number.

Coverage Includes:

  • Trip cancellation and interruption
  • Travel delays
  • Loss, theft, or damage to baggage
  • Baggage delays
  • Medical expenses
  • Emergency medical transportation

Most comprehensive policies vary in price based on the total cost of your trip and your age.

When to Get Travel Insurance

We strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance at the same time as booking your safari. This ensures maximum coverage, including protection for cancellations starting from the moment you book your trip, including your deposit.
