Child Policy

Traveling with Children:

• Day Tours: Children 11 and under receive a 50% discount on the tour price, as long as they are accompanied by an adult.
• Escorted Overland Tours: Children 12 and under also receive a 50% discount, but only if they share a room with two full-paying adults (restrictions apply to certain tours, so be sure to ask).

Child Seats:

• We may be able to provide child seats for your convenience on day tours. However, it’s recommended that you bring your own child safety seat to ensure it meets your specific needs. Real Africa Travel Tours cannot be held responsible if our provided seats aren’t suitable.

Health & Visas

Before You Go:

Real Africa Travel Tours cannot be held responsible for any issues arising from missing documentation or medication.

Right to subcontract

Real Africa Travel Tours strives to use our own vehicles for your tour. However, we reserve the right to subcontract a vehicle in case of emergencies or other unforeseen circumstances.

If we subcontract a vehicle:

• We will do our best to find a replacement vehicle that is as comfortable and reliable as our own.
• If a suitable replacement cannot be found, you have the right to find your own vehicle at your own expense. In this case, we will refund you for the portion of the trip covered by the subcontracted vehicle.
• The owner and driver of the substitute vehicle will be considered an independent contractor, not employed by Real Africa Travel Tours.

Important to understand:

• You will be entering a separate contract with the owner of the subcontracted vehicle for the duration of their service.
• Real Africa Travel Tours is not responsible for any claims arising from the use of the subcontracted vehicle, including damage or accidents caused by reckless or negligent driving.
