Terms & Policies

RESERVATION POLICIES:

To make a query with us - you can call us, mail us or use our social media handles to reach out to us. Please note Vana Safaris is a very small organisation & Avijit normally responds to your query. Since he travels too, so sometimes it takes a while before you hear back. However, we are trying constantly to be with you.

Once you hear back from us, please put in your ideas, a rough ball park budget & the kind of places that you like to stay in - we start working from that point and mail back a sketch itinerary to you.

After that we ask for a non refundable deposit that is adjusted towards the final booking amount - once we receive that, we proceed to the detailed program with a quote.

Once you give us a go ahead we ask for a second deposit (after adjusting the initial deposit into it) and start making reservations for you.

Once all accommodations are confirmed - we get back to you with a confirmation sheet and finalise the program with you.

Payments are required from120 days ahead of the tour and 30 days prior to the tour - full payment is a must.

CANCELLATION POLICY:

This depends on the services. In India - those doing a safari - depending on the park the safaris open 1 year to 120 days in advance. So safaris are booked normally 6 - 4 months ahead of the tour and refund on safari is complicated and slow.

However, we value your money and we ensure that your refunds are fair on you and us.
