The Booking Process
To confirm your arrangements, you need to do the following:
1. Pay a Deposit - a 30% non-refundable deposit is required to confirm all your arrangements. Your final payment will be due 60 days prior to your departure. Payment of a deposit indicates acceptance of our booking terms and conditions. Methods of payment are detailed below.
2. Complete, sign and return our Booking Form along with your deposit.
Completion and submission of this form is required before we can confirm your arrangements. It contains key information required by us to ensure you have a smooth journey from the time of booking to your safe return home. This information relates to passport names (often different from the name you normally use), passport #s for visa waivers, dietary requirements, emergency contact information, frequent flyer numbers and insurance details. It also serves as confirmation that you have accepted the terms and conditions of booking.

3. Advise what you wish to do regarding Travel Insurance.
Comprehensive travel insurance is strongly recommended by The Classic Safari Company. We offer QBE Insurance. It is advisable to take out travel insurance at the time of paying your deposit, so that you have cover from the commencement of confirming your travel arrangements.
If you have a pre-existing medical condition (see form for details) or are over the age of 70, you do need to fill out a 'pre-existing medical condition form.' This needs to be signed by your doctor and then returned to us, before we can issue the policy.
Non-residents and resident travellers who have already departed Australia, are ineligible to purchase our recommended insurance. Should you wish to make your own insurance arrangements please provide us with a copy of your current and valid policy and all emergency contact details for our file.
