01Acceptance of Terms

By accessing this website, requesting a quote, submitting an inquiry, or booking any safari or travel-related service through Ripple Safaris, you agree to be bound by these Terms & Conditions. If you do not agree, you should discontinue use of the website and related services.

02Services and Website Use

This website is provided for general information, safari planning, and travel inquiry purposes. We aim to keep all website content accurate and current, but itineraries, rates, inclusions, travel conditions, and destination details may change without notice.

You agree to use the website only for lawful purposes and not to interfere with its normal operation, security, or content integrity.

03Quotes, Bookings, and Payments

Quotes provided through the website, email, or direct communication are subject to availability and are not guaranteed until confirmed in writing. A booking is not considered final until required deposits or payments have been received and confirmed.

Payment schedules, deposit requirements, and final balances may vary depending on the type of safari, accommodation, permits, transport arrangements, supplier deadlines, and seasonal demand.

04Pricing and Availability

All pricing is subject to change before final booking confirmation. Changes may result from permit adjustments, fuel costs, taxes, exchange rates, accommodation updates, park fee revisions, or supplier pricing changes beyond our control.

Safari spaces, lodges, transport options, and permits remain subject to availability at the time of confirmation.

05Cancellations and Changes

If you need to cancel or change a booking, you must notify us in writing as soon as possible. Cancellation fees or amendment charges may apply based on supplier terms, permit conditions, accommodation rules, transport arrangements, and the timing of your request.

Some travel components, especially gorilla permits and certain third-party reservations, may be non-refundable once secured.

06Travel Documents and Requirements

You are responsible for ensuring that all travelers hold valid passports, visas, vaccination records, insurance documents, and any other entry or travel documents required for your itinerary. You are also responsible for checking health, safety, and entry regulations before travel.

We are not liable for losses arising from incomplete or invalid travel documentation provided by a traveler.

07Liability and Responsibility

We act with reasonable care in organizing safaris and related arrangements. However, we are not liable for delays, losses, injuries, service interruptions, or changes caused by events outside our reasonable control, including weather, road conditions, government actions, airline disruptions, park authority decisions, civil unrest, natural events, or supplier failures.

Travel in safari destinations involves inherent risks, including wildlife exposure, remote environments, and changing local conditions. Travelers accept these risks as part of participation in such activities.

08Intellectual Property

All website content, including text, branding, logos, layouts, photographs, and design elements, is owned by or licensed to Ripple Safaris unless otherwise stated. You may not reproduce, republish, distribute, or commercially exploit site materials without prior written permission.

09Third-Party Providers

Safari services may involve third-party accommodation providers, transport operators, guides, permit authorities, or payment processors. While we work with trusted partners, their services remain subject to their own terms, conditions, and operational constraints.

10Privacy and Data Use

Your use of the website and any information you submit through forms or email is also governed by our Privacy Policy. By using our services, you acknowledge that personal information may be used for communication, booking administration, and customer support in accordance with that policy.

11Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms & Conditions from time to time to reflect legal, operational, or service-related changes. The latest version will be posted on this page and will apply from the updated effective date.
