A deposit of 50% is required on confirmation of booking and the balance to be paid not later than 45 days prior to the commencement of services. For bookings made within 45 days of travel, the full cost of the services is required upon firm booking instructions in order for TANO Safaris to confirm the services. In the event that TANO Safaris has not received payment in full by the date of commencement of services then TANO Safaris reserves the right in its absolute discretion to withhold all or any of the services. TANO Safaris shall be entitled to collect the outstanding payment from the client direct and to recover all related cancellation fees as per the cancellation policy. TANO Safaris shall not be required to notify the Organiser, the Retailer or the Client prior to the date for commencement of services that all or part of the services will be withheld. Payments to TANO Safaris may be done via Bank Transfers only.
Cancellations
All bookings are subject to cancellation fees as assessed by the providers of the services and include but are not limited to accommodation, airlines and ground services. Reservations that are cancelled or reduced in length of stay, or numbers of passengers are subject to cancellation charges as set out hereunder. All cancellations must be received in writing. Cancellation received between:
– 90 days or more prior to the commencement of services will receive a full refund.
– 89 and 46 days prior to commencement of services shall be charged at 15% of the total cost of services.

The liability to reimburse TANO Safaris for the cancellation fees, non-refundable booking fee, no-show fees, administration fee and the like shall in no way limit or restrict the general rights of TANO Safaris to collect damages for breach of contract. We recommend that all travellers obtain their personal trip cancellation insurance, which is available for coverage of expenses in conjunction with cancellation due to illness or accident. Baggage insurance is recommended.

Refunds are not made for any missed services, except for verifiable extenuating circumstances. For verifiable claims to be considered, they must be received in writing within 30 days of the termination of the program and be accompanied by supporting documentation and/or a statement from the Operating Company verifying the claim. Any adjustment considered will be based on the actual price of the services involved and not on a per diem basis. Adjustments will not be made for unused sightseeing trips or meals. TANO Safaris will not accept any liability for any claims that are not received within 30 days of the termination of the travel program.

Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems and mobile applications include a Do-Not-Track (‘DNT’) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. At this stage, no uniform technology standard for recognising and implementing DNT signals has been finalised. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this Privacy Notice.
California law requires us to let you know how we respond to web browser DNT signals. Because there currently is not an industry or legal standard for recognising or honouring DNT signals, we do not respond to them at this time.

Request Verification
Upon receiving your request, we will need to verify your identity to determine you are the same person about whom we have the information in our system.

If you submit the request through an authorised agent, we may need to collect additional information to verify your identity before processing your request and the agent will need to provide a written and signed permission from you to submit such request on your behalf.
