1. Acceptance of Terms

By requesting, booking, paying for, or joining a trip arranged by Njiro Legacy Safaris, you agree to these Terms and Conditions. These terms apply to safari packages, Kilimanjaro climbs, day trips, hotel arrangements, transfers, and related travel services.

If you are booking on behalf of other travelers, you are responsible for making sure each traveler understands and accepts these terms.

2. Bookings and Confirmation

A booking request is not confirmed until Njiro Legacy Safaris has accepted the booking in writing and any required deposit or payment has been received. Availability of accommodation, guides, vehicles, permits, and activities may change before confirmation.

You must provide accurate traveler names, contact details, travel dates, passport details when needed, dietary requirements, medical notes, and any other information required to arrange your trip safely and correctly.

3. Pricing and Payments

Quoted prices are based on the itinerary, travel dates, number of guests, accommodation level, park fees, permits, transport, and services included in the proposal. Prices may change if the itinerary, guest count, supplier rates, taxes, government fees, or exchange rates change before confirmation.

  • Payment instructions and deadlines will be shared before confirmation.
  • Bank charges, transfer fees, card fees, and currency conversion charges are the responsibility of the guest unless stated otherwise.
  • Failure to pay by the agreed deadline may result in cancellation or release of reserved services.

4. Cancellations and Refunds

Cancellation terms depend on the package, travel date, supplier rules, permits, park fees, accommodation policies, and any non-refundable services already arranged. Specific cancellation terms will be provided with your booking proposal or confirmation.

Some payments may be non-refundable, including but not limited to permits, park fees, accommodation deposits, bank charges, and supplier costs already paid on your behalf. Refunds, where applicable, may take time to process through suppliers and payment providers.

5. Changes to Your Trip

Requests to change travel dates, routes, accommodation, activities, or the number of travelers are subject to availability and may change the total cost. Njiro Legacy Safaris will do its best to assist with reasonable changes, but changes cannot always be guaranteed.

Itineraries may also be adjusted due to weather, road conditions, safety concerns, park regulations, flight delays, supplier changes, or circumstances beyond our control. Any changes will be handled with guest safety and trip quality in mind.

6. Travel Documents and Insurance

Guests are responsible for holding valid passports, visas, travel permits, vaccination documents where required, and any other entry or travel documents needed for Tanzania or onward destinations.

We strongly recommend comprehensive travel insurance covering medical care, emergency evacuation, trip cancellation, delays, lost baggage, personal belongings, safari activities, mountain trekking where applicable, and other planned activities.

7. Health, Safety and Personal Responsibility

Guests must advise Njiro Legacy Safaris of any medical conditions, allergies, mobility needs, dietary requirements, or other important information that may affect the trip. Guests joining Kilimanjaro climbs, hikes, safaris, or outdoor activities must be physically prepared for the activity level described.

Guests must follow reasonable safety instructions from guides, drivers, accommodation staff, park authorities, and activity providers. Njiro Legacy Safaris may refuse or stop participation if a guest creates risk for themselves, other guests, staff, wildlife, or property.

8. Accommodation, Transport and Third-Party Services

Njiro Legacy Safaris may arrange services provided by hotels, lodges, camps, airlines, park authorities, transfer companies, activity providers, and other suppliers. These suppliers may have their own terms, rules, and cancellation policies.

We aim to work with reliable partners, but service standards, schedules, facilities, and availability may vary due to local conditions, maintenance, weather, operational changes, or supplier decisions.

9. Liability and Force Majeure

Njiro Legacy Safaris will take reasonable care when arranging and operating travel services. However, travel includes risks, and we are not responsible for losses caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to severe weather, road conditions, flight disruptions, illness, government actions, park closures, strikes, supplier failures, natural events, or safety emergencies.

Guests are responsible for personal belongings, travel documents, valuables, and following safety advice. Any claim must be reported as soon as possible so the team has a fair opportunity to help resolve the matter.

10. Questions, Complaints and Contact

If you have a question before booking, please contact us so we can clarify the terms that apply to your specific trip. If an issue occurs during travel, please inform your guide, driver, or reservations team as soon as possible so we can assist while the trip is active.

Safari FAQ

Tanzania Safari Questions & Answers

Quick answers for travelers planning a private, group, family, luxury, midrange, or Zanzibar-connected safari with Njiro Legacy Safaris.

How much does a Tanzania safari cost?

The cost of a Tanzania safari depends on the number of days, parks visited, accommodation level, season, and whether the safari is private or group joining. Njiro Legacy Safaris can prepare budget, midrange, and luxury safari options based on your travel dates and group size.

Can I customize my safari?

Yes. All private safaris can be customized. You can choose the number of days, parks, accommodation style, airport transfers, Zanzibar extension, Kilimanjaro add-on, or special activities such as a balloon safari or cultural visit.

Is the safari private or shared?

We offer both private safaris and group joining safaris. Private safaris give you your own vehicle and driver-guide, while group joining safaris are shared with other travelers and can be more budget-friendly.

Can I start my safari from Zanzibar?

Yes. We can arrange safari packages starting from Zanzibar with domestic flights to Arusha, Kilimanjaro, or Serengeti, depending on the itinerary. We can also arrange a safari first and Zanzibar beach holiday afterward.

What is the best month for the Serengeti migration?

The Serengeti migration can be seen in different areas depending on the month. January to March is best for the Ndutu calving season. June to October is best for the dry season and river crossing areas, especially Northern Serengeti and Kogatende.

Do I need travel insurance?

Yes. We strongly recommend travel insurance for all travelers. It should cover medical emergencies, trip cancellation, baggage loss, flight delays, and safari-related travel interruptions.

What type of vehicle do you use?

We use 4x4 safari Land Cruisers with pop-up roofs for game viewing. The vehicles are designed for safari roads and provide good visibility for photography and wildlife viewing.

Are airport transfers included?

Airport transfers can be included depending on the safari package or quote. We can arrange pickup and drop-off from Kilimanjaro International Airport, Arusha Airport, or your hotel in Arusha.

Can children join the safari?

Yes. Children can join Tanzania safaris. We can prepare family-friendly itineraries with comfortable driving distances, suitable lodges, flexible timing, and activities that work well for families.

How much should I tip the safari guide?

Tipping is not compulsory but is appreciated. A common guideline is USD 10-20 per person per day for the safari guide, depending on group size and satisfaction with the service.
