Travel Insurance

REQUIRED

Please read the following before paying your deposit:

Travel medical insurance is mandatory. Our minimum insurance policy coverage for medical emergency evacuation and repatriation is $200,000 USD.

We don’t accept Credit Card insurance as proof of travel insurance for our tours, therefore we recommend purchasing your travel insurance policy BEFORE making any payments.

Many of our guests opt for World Nomads Travel Insurance, however, we encourage you to shop around for a policy that is best suited for your needs. Other insurance providers include Allianz Travel Insurance, Nationwide Travel Insurance, John Hancock Travel, and many more.

Please note that all of our tour payments are non-refundable and non-transferable, and travel insurance will only cover cancellations for covered reasons such as the unexpected illness of you or a family member, severe weather, or job loss.

If you would like to purchase “cancel for any reason” coverage, it is more expensive but will usually cover you for up to 50-75% of the total cost of the trip. Some policies that offer “cancel for any reason” include John Hancock “Gold” Travel Insurance and Nationwide “Prime” Travel Insurance. These policies also need to be purchased before a deadline—typically within 14 days of making a trip deposit.

NOTE: When selecting the dates of your travel insurance policy, please keep your travel dates in mind should you choose to fly in a day early or stay an additional night per our recommendation. For example, if you need to fly out on January 8th to arrive in time for a tour starting on January 10th, you will want to enter your insurance coverage start date as of January 8th.

Travel Tip

If you have been looking to get a travel reward credit card, you can take advantage of earning a sign-up bonus by applying for one before a big trip or purchase (like your TBA Escapes Trip)! Most cards have a required minimum spend to earn the bonus miles offered (ex. spend $3,000 in 3 months to earn 50,000 bonus miles), so many of our previous guests opted to apply before making their payments for the tour.

If you’re interested, we’d suggest applying after you’ve paid your deposit. Once approved, you should receive your card within 1-2 weeks so you can use it to pay for your flight and tour payments. You can see some of our favorite cards here!

Some of the biggest benefits of a travel reward credit card are earning points to use for free flights and hotels. Plus, many cards offer additional points when making travel-related purchases. Some cards also offer additional travel protection when you pay for a trip with the card.

Right now, the Chase Sapphire Preferred has an incredible 80k bonus point offer! We’re more than happy to consult with you if you are unsure of the best card for you. Just let us know if you’d like some help!

Traveling Kenya

before or after the tour

After paying your deposit, you will be added to our tour Facebook group where you can connect with your fellow travelers!

If you are planning on traveling regionally before or after the tour, feel free to share your plans in the Facebook group. We’re also more than happy to help provide some suggestions. Just let us know what travel plans you have in mind.

** DISCLAIMER: This trip requires a minimum of 8 guests to operate.

We’re confident we’ll reach this number soon and will keep you updated once it’s confirmed! In the meantime, we recommend waiting to book non-refundable flights.

Testimonials

Alexandra L.

“The TBA Escapes Kenya trip exceeded all of my expectations, which is hard to believe. This was my second trip with TBA Escapes, so I expected a high level of service and incredible experiences but I was still blown away. Looking back on the trip, I feel like I dreamt it because it was of such an outstanding caliber. Everything from the accommodations, to the staff we encountered was exceptional. Friends keep asking me if my photos are real – the experiences on this itinerary are just that good! I never would have been able to stay at a place like Giraffe Manor on my own, and I am very thankful to have had the opportunity to go with TBA Escapes! I’m already hoping they add more destinations so I can travel with them again.”

Maggie B.

“I had the opportunity to go on my 2nd TBA Escapes tour to Kenya and it was incredible! The TBA Escapes team curated a thoughtful, exciting itinerary and didn’t miss a detail. From getting an exclusive experience at Giraffe Manor to a sunrise hot air balloon excursion to the daily safari game drives and staying at the 1920s Cottars Camp, I could not have imagined a more perfect trip. I cannot recommend booking a tour with TBA Escapes enough- they always create an unforgettable experience!”

Corie F.

“Kenya with TBA Escapes was hands down one of the most life-changing trips I’ve ever taken. From the moment I arrived to the final goodbyes, every detail was thoughtfully curated to ensure it was the ultimate bucket list experience. The bonds formed with the incredible women on this trip, the unforgettable memories, and the stunning photos are things I will cherish forever. The TBA Escapes team went above and beyond to make every single moment special – whether it was waking up to giraffes outside your window, witnessing cheetahs on the hunt, feeding and caring for baby elephants, or hearing stories from the Maasai warriors about their way of life. Every single day was packed with adventure, connection, and learning, making this so much more than just a trip – it was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. If Kenya is calling, trust me, TBA Escapes is the only way to answer!”

Jalayne L.

“This is the best trip I have ever taken. Personalized and exclusive in every detail. This group of women was inclusive, kind and so much fun. Planning on doing it again!”

Jenny L.

“My trip to Kenya with TBA Escapes was the highlight of my year! Every day had adventures that were more magical than the last. The Giraffe Manor was a bucket list item for sure, and it definitely exceeded my expectations. Every detail was considered and there was a great balance of exploration and adventure while having down time and really getting to know everyone in our group. Thank you TBA Escapes for a trip of a lifetime! After this trip, I would go anywhere with TBA Escapes!”

Abby R.

“TBA Escape’s tour of Kenya was packed to the brim with magical, once-in-a-lifetime experiences that made visiting this country incredibly memorable. From private time with baby elephants, to feeding giraffes, to experiencing the majesty of the Masai Mara on game drives, we had so many interactions with animals. The accommodations and food were nothing short of perfect. I can’t recommend seeing Kenya with TBA Escapes enough. Thank you!”

Dimpy M.

“I have been on 4 TBA Escapes tours (SA, Morocco, Jordan & Egypt) and they have all been amazing & exceptional experiences. I love how the tours are curated and offer a good mix of history and fun! Everything is so well planned from the accommodations, restaurants and tour activities. The tour host Caity and local guides have all been amazing and I’m grateful to have formed special bonds with each of them and to call them my friends. I have met some wonderful ladies on these tours who share my passion for travel and adventure. I look forward to seeing which tours will be offered in the future by TBA and can’t wait!”

Sam B.

“Wow! Can’t say that enough about TBA Escapes. What an experience to spend 10 days with 11 strangers and come home with a million different memories and 11 new friendships. What made the trip even more special was I got to do it with my mom and create such memorable moments with her on the trip. Definitely a tour group for all ages! TBA Escapes hit the nail on the head every time, no detail was overlooked. Can’t wait to book another trip in the future!”

Courtney S.

“TBA Escapes tours are dream vacations and I highly recommend these tours to everyone! Egypt was my second tour with TBA Escapes and I’m already booked for my third. The ancient Egyptian history and architecture had this destination on my bucket list, and TBA Escapes added luxury details, unique photo opportunities, enthusiastic guides and security escorts, seamless transportation, and well-rounded activities that made this itinerary a once-in-a-lifetime experience. And on top of all that, the opportunity to meet many remarkable women over our shared passion for travel offers you new lifelong friendships!!”

Amanda B.

“TBA Escapes makes your travel dreams become your reality! I have done two tours now, South Africa and Egypt, and I am still talking about them and both trips have forever changed me. I learn so much about the culture, I meet new people, and I feel cared for. I feel safe and excited! I love what is provided – the luxury accommodations and epic adventures. I’ve even gotten braver each time I join! Thank you to Caity, Nats, Sagy, and Kiki and all the rest of the team!”

Scotty W.

“Egypt was my second TBA Escapes tour and, like the previous one, exceeded my expectations! The itinerary was comprehensive, with every moment thoughtfully planned. Every outing, activity, and meal was perfectly curated. Not only did we get to see everything in Egypt, but did so in comfort and style! Our fantastic guide, amazing hostess, and wonderful fellow women elevated the tour above and beyond. I can’t wait for my next TBA Escapes tour!”

Rachael S.

“My first TBA trip is officially over and I’m ready for another one! TBA made everything so easy and had such great communication with our group the entire time, including the months leading up to it. Not only was the organization and detail amazing but once we arrived our host Caity was kind and warm-hearted and made you feel like you belonged instantly. The incredible group of women I traveled with made this trip even more interesting and fun. We had a lot of laughs along the way and made great memories. I felt safe and taken care of the entire time. Sagy, our Egyptian guide, was another ray of sunshine and made the massive history seem very understandable. We had a lot to see in a short time and these two women kept us energized and excited. The accommodations were beautiful and food was amazing. Who knew I’d have some of the best sushi in Egypt?! Highly recommend TBA!!!”

Abby R.

“Seeing Egypt with TBA Escapes was absolutely incredible. This is a country that seems impossible to visit without a tour and guide. TBA provided an itinerary that allowed us to see so much, VIP service, and a guide that expertly explained this vast period of history, which allowed us to appreciate the sites we saw so much more! All accommodations were incredible, as was the food. I can’t imagine a more perfect way to visit this incredible country!”

Lindy S.

“Just finished my first TBA trip and I’m already counting down to the next one! I couldn’t have asked for a better way to see Egypt. Everything from the sites, to the food, to the local guide were outstanding! If you’re considering signing up for a trip, you have to go!”

Candice H.

“My trip to Egypt with TBA Escapes far exceeded all expectations. It was truly the adventure of a lifetime and I’m beyond happy with the experience! Everything was perfectly planned and coordinated. I’m actually so spoiled now because of how well TBA managed all the logistics and activities. They took care of everything! I don’t know how I will ever do a trip without TBA. Our guide Caity was incredible too! She was so fun and managed the trip beautifully!

I had dreamed about going to Egypt for years but thought it may never be a possibility. When I saw that TBA was going, I jumped on the opportunity… a little unsure about what I had just signed up for (to be honest). But I’m so happy I did it! Not only did I get to go to a dream destination but I got to do it with a great group of women who are now friends for life! I can’t say enough good things about TBA. Do it! Take the trip!”

Elizabeth S.

“I don’t typically book tours, preferring to have more of a local, fly-by-the-seat-of-my-pants experience when I travel, but Egypt has always been on my bucket list and having never been to the Middle East, I wasn’t comfortable just winging it. Enter TBA Escapes. The Nefertiti to the Nile tour was the perfect way to experience Egypt. Between our host, Egyptologist, and ground team, everything was executed seamlessly and I didn’t need to worry at all about logistics–which is helpful when your Arabic is limited to “hello, please, & thank you.” The tour was the perfect blend of history, culture, adventure, and relaxation. Beyond the beautiful temples, luxury accommodations, and adventures, TBA also provided an amazing opportunity to connect with like-minded women and build lasting friendships. Trip of a lifetime–can’t recommend TBA Escapes enough!”

Julia L.

“This is the second trip I did with TBA and it did not disappoint. I loved the whole trip. The organization was flawless for this trip from the start with the pick up from the airport and drop off at the airport and everything in between. Thank you. Shaimaa was an exceptional guide. She is not only an amazing woman, but also has an immense knowledge of Egypt.”
