Accommodation
A comprehensive travel insurance policy for each traveler in your group is highly recommended. We recommend 100% cancellation coverage and a minimum $25,000 benefit per person for medical insurance. Medical evacuation insurance is required in most destinations. Once your trip is confirmed, we will send you a travel insurance quote. Please note that we need your Registration Confirmation form(s), signed Terms and Conditions, and deposit to generate your travel insurance quote. Travelers with a pre-existing condition must obtain coverage within 15 days of paying a trip deposit in order to secure coverage for their condition. The provider we work with is Travel Guard. Rothschild Safaris strongly suggests a comprehensive travel protection plan prior to traveling. At minimum, Rothschild Safaris requires each traveler to purchase an Emergency Medical Evacuation plan.
