Jungle Safari Bharat is a private travel agency acting solely as a facilitator for bookings. We are not a government website and are not affiliated with or operated by any Government Forest Department.
Safari permits, park entries, and zone allocations are issued, governed, and regulated by the respective state Government Forest Departments and are subject to their applicable rules, availability, and approval.
All cancellations, rescheduling requests, and refunds are subject to the applicable terms and conditions of the primary service providers, including Government Forest Departments, hotels, resorts, and transport operators, along with any applicable agency facilitation or processing charges.
This Cancellation & Refund Policy outlines the terms under which cancellations are processed and refunds, where applicable, are determined when you book wildlife safaris, accommodation, transportation, or complete tour packages through Jungle Safari Bharat.
By completing a booking on our website or through our offline reservation channels, you acknowledge and agree to the applicable cancellation and refund terms communicated at the time of booking.
Once a government safari permit is confirmed, cancellation, modification, transfer, or refund will be subject to the applicable rules and policies of the respective Government Forest Department.
Requests for changes to the safari date, safari slot (morning/evening), vehicle type, zone, or visitor details cannot be guaranteed by Jungle Safari Bharat and will depend entirely on the rules, availability, and approval of the respective Forest Department.
Where the applicable authority does not permit cancellation, modification, transfer, or refund, the corresponding safari permit amount will be non-refundable.
Cancellation policies for hotels and jungle resorts vary depending on the property, room type, booking conditions, and season of travel.
The cancellation policy mentioned on the applicable booking confirmation or voucher will prevail wherever it differs from the standard timelines mentioned below.
Unless specified otherwise on your booking voucher, the following standard accommodation cancellation timeline may apply:
During peak travel periods such as Diwali, Christmas, New Year, Holi, and national holidays, selected hotels and resorts may apply stricter or non-refundable cancellation conditions. The property-specific terms applicable to your booking will prevail.
Wildlife tour packages may consist of multiple individual components, including safari permits, accommodation, meals, transportation, and other travel services.
If you choose to cancel a package, the refund will be calculated separately for each component based on the applicable cancellation terms of the respective service provider.
If you book an independent cab or transportation service through Jungle Safari Bharat, cancellation requests should be submitted in writing through our official email.
Unless a different cancellation policy is specified on your booking confirmation, the following standard terms may apply:
The cancellation terms of the assigned transport provider will prevail where they differ from these standard terms.
National Parks and Tiger Reserves may be closed or safari operations may be suspended due to severe weather conditions, heavy rainfall, flooding, forest fires, administrative or government directives, VIP movements, strikes, public emergencies, epidemics, safety concerns, or other circumstances beyond our reasonable control.
In such circumstances, the decision of the respective Government Forest Department regarding safari cancellation, permit rescheduling, or refund will apply. Jungle Safari Bharat cannot guarantee compensation or refunds beyond the amount approved or released by the relevant authority or service provider.
Any non-refundable agency, transaction, processing, accommodation, or transportation charges will remain subject to the applicable terms of the respective service provider.
Refund eligibility depends on the applicable cancellation policy of the service or provider involved in your booking.
All cancellation and refund requests should be submitted formally through our official email address. Verbal or telephonic requests may not be treated as formal cancellation requests until confirmed in writing.
Once a refund is approved and received from the applicable service provider or authority, Jungle Safari Bharat will initiate the eligible refund to the original payment method used for the booking, wherever technically and operationally possible.
Please allow approximately 7 to 10 working days after refund initiation for the amount to reflect in your account. Actual credit time may vary depending on the bank, card issuer, payment gateway, or other financial institution involved.
To request a cancellation, please contact us through our official email address with the following information:
Cancellation requests will be reviewed according to the applicable terms and the request date and time may be considered when determining eligibility.
We may update this Cancellation & Refund Policy from time to time to reflect changes in government forest guidelines, service-provider policies, operational practices, or applicable legal requirements.
Any revised policy will be published on this page and will apply to bookings made after the updated policy becomes effective, unless otherwise required by applicable law.
