NOTES
GENERAL NOTES RELATED TO ALL RATES IN THIS MANUAL
• All city services and ground transfers, conservation/park fees, levies, and air transfers are excluded unless otherwise noted.
• Standard Terms and Conditions apply - a copy of which is available on request.
• Rates are subject to change due to unforeseen circumstances such as, but not limited to, currency fluctuations, fuel levies, surcharges, government decree,
or items of this nature.
• Comprehensive medical and travel insurance (including temporary Flying Doctor Membership where relevant in Kenya) is required for all guests travelling to
the properties and is a condition of travel and stay.
Great Plains Conservation Child Policy
These general guidelines apply to all of the Great Plains Conservation properties:
• In all camps (except Mara Toto and Selinda Explorers camp) private vehicles must be booked for families with children 15 and younger unless:
• the family is 6 travellers or more.
• the camp has been booked on an exclusive use basis.
• Families at Mara Toto and Selinda Explorers Camp will be on shared activities with other guests.
• The minimum age requirement for walking and canoeing is 12 years in all camps except Selinda Explorers Camp where activities will be adjusted for
children 10 years and older.
• Children 15 and younger must share a room with at leats one adult.
• On the Selinda Canoe Trail, children 10 to 15 years (inclusive) are welcome on departures that have been booked on a private basis. This allows the guide
and crew to adjust the daily canoeing to suit the family’s needs.
• The child rate is based on a child sharing with two adults (except ol Donyo Lodge, Mara Plains and Selinda Camp family rooms where is is up to two
children sharing with two adults). If this configuration is not possible, then it may be that the child will be charged the applicable adult rate.
• We evaluate each booking to ensure we deliver the best possible safari experience to all our guests in camp. In some cases, we may need to turn away a
family booking in order to do so; we will do everything possible to try and avoid that outcome.
• Our camps are located in wildlife zones that are not fenced in and there are no child care facilities in our camps. Parents/guardians must be watchful of
and responsible for their children at all times.
• Each of our camps has a unique child policy based on the size, location and structure of the camp. Please consult each camp’s rate page for specifics.
