Terms & Conditions

Last Updated: 27 August 2026

AfriXplora Terms & Conditions

These Terms & Conditions govern your use of the AfriXplora website and the purchase or use of travel services arranged through our platform.


1. About AfriXplora

AfriXplora is a travel platform operated under Applesauce.inc.

AfriXplora may act as a travel organiser, travel intermediary, booking facilitator or platform connecting travellers with third-party travel service providers, depending on the product or service concerned.


2. Acceptance of These Terms

By accessing our website, creating an account, submitting a trip request, requesting a quotation or making a booking, you agree to these Terms & Conditions.

If you do not agree with these Terms, you should not use the relevant service.


3. Website Use

You agree to use the website lawfully and responsibly.

You must not:

  • Use the website for fraudulent purposes.
  • Attempt to gain unauthorised access to our systems.
  • Submit false or misleading information.
  • Interfere with website security or functionality.
  • Copy or reproduce website content without permission.

4. User Accounts

Where account registration is available, you are responsible for providing accurate information and keeping your login credentials confidential.

You should notify us promptly if you believe your account has been compromised.


5. Travel Packages

Package descriptions, photographs, itineraries, accommodation, activities and other information are provided to help you understand the travel experience.

Actual arrangements may occasionally vary because of supplier availability, weather, operational requirements, safety considerations or circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

Where a material change is required, we will make reasonable efforts to communicate the change and provide an appropriate alternative where possible.


6. Prices and Quotations

Prices displayed on the website may be subject to availability, currency fluctuations, supplier pricing and applicable taxes or fees.

A quotation provided by AfriXplora will specify the applicable price, inclusions, exclusions, payment requirements and validity period where applicable.

A quotation does not automatically constitute a confirmed booking.


7. Booking Confirmation

A booking becomes confirmed only after:

  • The required booking information has been received.
  • The applicable supplier availability has been confirmed.
  • The required deposit or payment has been received.
  • AfriXplora or the relevant supplier has confirmed the booking.

Submitting a trip request or enquiry does not by itself guarantee availability or create a confirmed reservation.


8. Deposits and Payments

Some travel products may require a deposit at the time of booking, with the remaining balance payable according to the payment schedule provided to you.

Where an instalment or travel-wallet payment arrangement is offered, failure to meet required payment deadlines may affect the booking or result in cancellation subject to the applicable booking conditions.


9. Third-Party Suppliers

Travel services may be provided by independent third parties, including hotels, airlines, transport companies, tour operators, activity providers and other suppliers.

Those suppliers may have their own terms, conditions, safety requirements and cancellation policies. Where applicable, these conditions will form part of your booking arrangements.


10. Travel Documents and Requirements

Travellers are responsible for ensuring that they have the required:

  • Valid passports
  • Visas and permits
  • Vaccinations or health documentation where applicable
  • Travel insurance where required or recommended
  • Other documents required for their journey

Requirements can vary by nationality, destination and travel circumstances. Travellers should verify requirements with the appropriate authorities before departure.


11. Travel Insurance

Travel insurance is strongly recommended and may be mandatory for certain products or destinations.

Unless expressly stated otherwise in your booking, travel insurance is not included in the package price.


12. Changes to Bookings

Requests to change a booking are subject to availability and the conditions imposed by the relevant travel suppliers.

Changes may result in additional charges.


13. Cancellations

Cancellations are governed by the applicable cancellation policy for the booking or travel product.

Please review our Cancellation Policy before making a booking.


14. Force Majeure

We will not be responsible for delays, cancellations, losses or changes caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including natural disasters, severe weather, war, civil unrest, government restrictions, pandemics, strikes, transport disruptions, supplier failures or other extraordinary events.


15. Liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, AfriXplora will not be responsible for losses arising from the acts, omissions, negligence or failures of independent third-party suppliers.

Nothing in these Terms is intended to exclude or limit any consumer right or liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.


16. Complaints and Disputes

We encourage customers to contact us first so that we can attempt to resolve complaints fairly and efficiently.

Where applicable, consumer rights and dispute-resolution mechanisms available under South African law will continue to apply.


17. Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise stated, website content including text, graphics, logos, photographs, designs and software is owned by or licensed to AfriXplora or Applesauce.inc.

You may not reproduce, distribute or commercially exploit such content without appropriate permission.


18. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms & Conditions from time to time. Updated terms will be published on this page and will apply from the effective date stated in the updated version.


19. Governing Law

These Terms are intended to operate subject to the laws of the Republic of South Africa, to the extent applicable.

Nothing in these Terms limits rights that consumers may have under mandatory applicable law.
