General advisements
Names on all reservations must match your government‑issued ID to avoid name change fees, airline penalties, or delays.
Review your dated itinerary, flights, and vacation details to ensure everything is correct.
Bedding Requests: Globus will attempt to accommodate, but this is not guaranteed and is subject to hotel availability at check‑in.
Confirmation of hotels will be available approximately 30 days prior to departure; substitutions of similar standard may occur.
Guests will be required to sign a liability waiver before travel to acknowledge the risks of game viewing.
Vacation ends at O.R. Tambo International Airport (JNB); guests on brochure dates do not require a departure transfer.
Due to airline restrictions, suitcases cannot exceed 44 lbs.
TSA & airport timing (for U.S. departures)
Long delays at TSA security can occur at major U.S. airports. It is recommended that passengers arrive 2–3 hours prior to departure to ensure enough time to clear security.
Luggage on tour
Porterage at hotels is included for one piece of luggage per person (when available). As a general guide, your one piece of luggage should not exceed 30x21x11 in (76x53x28 cm) or 50 lbs (22 kg). A second piece of luggage or any luggage exceeding these limits cannot be accepted on tour.
Passports, visas & health
Passports should be valid for at least six (6) months beyond the conclusion of your trip, with a minimum of three (3) blank pages.
Some countries require visas. Check current requirements and consider using the iVisa service via the Globus link or consult your travel advisor.
For South Africa and Zimbabwe, guests should consult their physician regarding current health requirements. Evidence of yellow fever immunization and other inoculations and/or anti‑malaria medication may be required.
South Africa has specific regulations for children entering or departing the country. Check the South Africa Department of Home Affairs and your nearest consulate or embassy.
