Cancellation and Refunds
- If You cancel your trip:
Cancellations by serving, at least, 35 days prior written notice by the person whose name and signature appears on the booking form shall be accepted.
As we may incur considerable costs if You cancel, 25% of the price of the package You booked shall be retained upon cancellation.

If we are forced to cancel your trip for reasons beyond our reasonable control (force majeure) we will offer You the choice of a full refund of any monies paid or an alternative trip. The NGO will accept no liability for any costs incurred by You for anything other than the monies paid to us for the trip.
Accomodations
The best available accommodation is chosen at the time of booking that suits the purpose of the itinerary.
In the event of a particular accommodation being unavailable upon booking, accommodation of a similar or higher standard will be substituted.
Late Sign Up
In the event that You make a booking with Progress after arriving in Tanzania, we will endeavour to carry out your requests but You should understand the difficulties of late bookings in regards to obtaining accommodation, transport and without reasonable notice.
INSURANCE
Travel and Medical Insurance is compulsory for all participants. Your policy must include coverage for medical expenses arising from illness or accident before or during the trip, evacuation and repatriation in case of emergency, death, any loss or theft of baggage, money or personal effects. You should ensure that there are no exclusion clauses limiting protection for activities You undertake including, amongst others, altitude trekking (for Kilimanjaro and Mount Meru) and mountaineering activities.
You are responsible for their own insurance and the Company is not legally liable or responsible in the event a guest fails to take out adequate insurance coverage. All sporting activities undertaken by You are of their own choice and at their own risk. We advise You to review their insurance policies carefully as many policies will not cover injuries sustained in a high-risk activity. Travel insurance is also one of the most important aspect of protecting your trip in case of failure or cancellation, so please make sure that You have it in place from the moment that You first make your booking and covering the whole period before, during and after travel.
