Health & Vaccination
Medical Conditions
If you suffer from any form of medical condition, be sure to have an adequate supply of relevant medications prior to departing on your trip and advise us of any important medical conditions you may have at time of booking.
What to Pack for my Trip
It’s super important to be prepared when it comes to your health, and this includes any medication you may need on the road, such as: antihistamines, antibiotics, or any additional precautionary tablets, creams, first aid kits, mosquito sprays, sun-creams etc. Just make sure you pack all the important stuff in an easily accessible safe place, ideally in your hand luggage.
What if I get sick while traveling?
Sickness is never ideal, but sometimes the inevitable happens when you’re on the road experiencing new foods and ways of life. Depending on the severity of your sickness, your Trip Manager will help you find any medicine or health requirements you may need. Taking out comprehensive insurance before travelling with Tembea Kenya Pollmans is a highly recommended and will ensure you are covered for any personal injury, medical expenses etc. that you may incur.
How can I keep healthy on the road?
To stay healthy when you’re constantly out and about it is the key to ensure you get the most from your travelling experience. Keeping an eye on what you’re eating and drinking, how much movement you’re doing, getting a decent amount of sleep and just knowing when enough is enough will do wonders for both your physical and mental health.

What is your cancellation Policy?
Payment for the tour is a fundamental part of the tour’s income and contributes to the overall cost of equipment, running costs, staffing, administration, etc. As the Company will have incurred the majority of its costs before the tour starts, we need to impose cancellation charges to cover these costs. For Tembea Kenya you pay up front in full but cancellation policy applies.
