Insurance
Red Ivory Safaris strongly recommends personal trip cancellation insurance, as well as travel accident and baggage insurance. If the Client desires insurance which provides protection against financial loss, it must be taken independently. Red Ivory Safaris does not provide trip cancellation or any other type of insurance whatsoever on behalf of the Client. However we do recommend SCI’s travel insurance at www.huntandtravel.com  You must be a member of SCI to partake of this insurance package. Once Red Ivory Safaris has delivered the Client’s trophies to the appropriate third party, taxidermist or shipping agent, it no longer assumes any responsibility whatsoever for its damage or loss.
