Protecting Your Investment

Comprehensive Coverage is Mandatory

An African safari is a significant financial investment and a complex logistical undertaking. To protect yourself against unforeseen circumstances that could disrupt your travel plans, Filao Adventures enforces a strict policy: comprehensive travel insurance is mandatory for all guests.

Before you depart for Africa, you must provide proof of a robust travel insurance policy. We strongly advise purchasing your policy within 14 days of paying your initial deposit to ensure maximum coverage.

What Your Policy Must Cover

• Trip Cancellation and Interruption: Coverage to recover your non-refundable payments if you must cancel due to illness, family emergencies, or other covered reasons before or during your trip.
• Major Medical Expenses: Substantial coverage for medical treatment while abroad. African healthcare systems vary, and premium private care is expensive.
• Emergency Medical Evacuation: While we provide AMREF Flying Doctors cover for evacuation to Nairobi, your global policy must cover the potentially massive costs of medical repatriation back to your home country.
• Baggage Delay and Loss: Compensation for lost luggage or funds to purchase essentials if your bags are delayed by airlines.

If you require assistance selecting a reputable insurance provider, our Safari Specialists can recommend trusted global firms that specialize in high-end adventure travel coverage.
