Ways to Book
Perhaps you’ve found the perfect holiday trip already, or maybe your imagination knows precisely how you want it to pan out, but you need a little help with the logistics. Either way, we’re here waiting for your call or your email, or why not come in and chat face-to-face?
Bookings Options
Not everybody enjoys chatting on the phone. In fact, some of us positively detest it – that awkward moment where you both speak at the same time—the lack of eye contact.
The inability to rely on your charismatic mannerisms and traffic-stopping good looks. Well, no more shall you be put through the agonizing punishment of having to speak to a real human being. No more leaving awkward voicemails, waiting for them to call back, wondering if you left a contact number, and finally calling back and leaving another voicemail with your details again.
Instead, you can utilize the effortless exchange of the online booking engine. That’s right: you can now travel to Africa with nothing more than the click of a mouse. So once you’ve decided where you want to be, hit the big ‘book now’ button and enjoy absolutely no awkward silences.
Travel Insurance
Travel Insurance is compulsory on all Sun Africa Expedition trips and is a condition of booking with Sun Africa Expeditions. When selecting a travel insurance policy we require that at a minimum you are covered for medical expenses including emergency repatriation. We strongly recommend that the policy also covers personal liability, cancellation, curtailment, loss of luggage, and personal effects.
This will not only guarantee you peace of mind while you travel with Sun Africa Expeditions but also covers you for many of the things that can go wrong while overseas.
Your insurance policy will need to be sighted by your leader on day one of your trips. Please ensure you have your policy number and emergency telephone number for your insurance company. If this is unavailable please ensure you have the necessary information required by your Insurance Company in case of an emergency.
We also recommend you take out cancellation insurance. This may cover cancellation penalties in certain circumstances if you have to cancel your trip unexpectedly due to illness, injury, or unforeseen circumstances. Unfortunately, cancellation insurance normally will not cover you if you change your mind.
Accommodation & Transfers
Sun Africa Expeditions wants to make sure your trip starts and ends, on the right foot. Whether you’re the type of person who loves to be early or the last person on the dance floor at a party – our accommodation services allow you to squeeze every last drop of excitement out of your adventure. When booking your trip, just let us know if you are planning on extending your trip, and Sun Africa Expeditions or our overseas agents can handle all your pre and post-trip accommodation requirements for you.
Once your accommodation is all sorted, it’s time to think about getting from A to B. As much as we love airports, arriving at a new one isn’t always the most pleasant way to start a holiday. Unless you love swarms of taxi drivers vying for your attention and confusing transport maps – there’s nothing better than spotting a friendly face in the crowd and being whisked away from the chaos. That’s why, in all our destinations, we offer arrival and departure transfers as an optional extra – so you can spend less time haggling for a cab fare and more time exploring.
Oh, and if you’re a single traveler – we’ve got you covered too. A single supplement is available on most trips for an extra charge. Just ask our reservation staff or travel agent at the time of booking.
Sightseeing
So you’ve touched down, made it to the hotel, and slipped on some comfy walking shoes. What next? Sure, you could hit the mini-bar, relax in the lobby or wander around aimlessly for a few hours. Or you could kick-start your adventure by joining a Sun Africa Expeditions excursion. From street art to street food, in just a few hours you’ll be well and truly under the skin of the city you’re visiting. Got a few days spare before or after your trip? No problems, most Sun Africa Expeditions excursions depart daily, and departures are guaranteed.
Or if you find yourself with some spare time during your trip, your leader can recommend and arrange a range of optional activities for you.
