to receive real-time wildlife sightings from other local guides?
2. CERTIFICATION: What KPSGA certification level does our assigned wildlife guide hold?
3. TRIPLE ROOM GUARANTEE: Can all recommended lodges/camps guarantee 1 Twin Room + 1 Triple Room for our group throughout the safari?
4. ACCOMMODATION: Please list the EXACT lodge/camp names for each night. Generic wording like "similar standard" is not accepted without written agreement.
5. VEHICLE: Confirm 1 x 4x4 Land Cruiser with pop-up roof, suitable for 5 passengers plus luggage. Are USB charging ports available? Please share vehicle photos and manufacturing year.
6. SAFARI TIME GUARANTEE: Will the two full-day game drives in Masai Mara not be shortened for transit purposes? Will the guide actively adjust routes to maximize wildlife sightings?
7. CONTINGENCY PLAN: If vehicle breakdown happens, within how many hours can a replacement vehicle be arranged?
8. Please provide your full KATO registered legal name so we can verify your membership status on katokenya.org.
9.
CANCELLATION FOR TRANSIT DISRUPTION: Our international flight will transit via the Middle East. If unexpected geopolitical policy, airspace restriction or travel restriction prevents our group from departing and completing this safari, what will be your deposit refund policy?
