Lafab Tours and Travel Booking Terms and Conditions
Most of our safaris are private/tailor-made. Which means that anyone can book and craft a safari in their own personal style. That also means, you can change your pre-determined safari schedules at any time anytime if there is a genuine accepted challenge such as Natural Disaster or Insecurity in the area. In the event that your Africa safari trip gets interrupted by natural disasters, we will readjust your trip accordingly. We can reschedule your trip for up-to 24 months ahead to help you adjust to a calamity.
Please adhere to the COVID-19 guidelines of every place you stop during the entire Safari Trip.
