Important information

Booking & Cancellation Policy

Please read our booking policy carefully — it explains payments, cancellations, changes and important pre-departure requirements for all Stokman Safaris bookings.

How to book

  • Request a quote or select a package via our website, email, or phone.
  • We will send a written itinerary and invoice confirming inclusions and exclusions.
  • To secure a reservation, a deposit is required (details below).

Payments & deposits

Standard deposit is 25% of the total package price unless otherwise stated. Final payment is required 45 days before departure for standard packages. For tailor-made or peak-season bookings different terms may apply — these will be shown on your invoice.

We accept bank transfers and major credit cards. All bank charges are the responsibility of the guest unless otherwise arranged.

Cancellation & refund policy

Cancellations must be made in writing (email is acceptable). Refunds are issued according to the schedule below and are calculated from the date we receive your written cancellation.

When you cancel Amount retained
More than 45 days before departure Deposit retained (25%)
45–21 days before departure 50% of total price
20–8 days before departure 75% of total price
7 days or less / no-show 100% (no refund)

Changes & transfers

Changes to confirmed bookings are possible and subject to availability. Where changes incur costs (supplier fees, additional transport, or rate differences), these will be billed to the client. For date changes made within 21 days of departure, a change fee may apply.

No-show policy

Failure to show up at the scheduled time without prior notice will be treated as a cancellation and charged according to the cancellation policy above.

Special requests & extras

Dietary needs, room preferences, or other special requests should be submitted in writing. We will make reasonable efforts to accommodate requests but cannot guarantee them. Any confirmed pay-on-request extras will be billed separately.

Notes: Stokman Safaris acts as an agent for suppliers (lodges, airlines, transport operators) and is not liable for supplier insolvency or supplier-level failures. Special event bookings (festivals, peak migration dates) may attract stricter payment and cancellation terms that will be shown on your invoice.
