Yes, you can cancel a safari tour after booking, but the cancellation policy depends on the tour operator:

Africa Wild Safaris
If you cancel between 89 and 60 days before your tour, you’ll lose 75% of the tour fee. If you cancel 59 days or fewer before your tour, you’ll lose the entire tour fee.

Safari With Us
Cancellation policies vary by tour type and how many days before departure you cancel. For example, for day tours and short tours, you’ll lose 20% of the total booking if you cancel more than 35 days before departure, 50% if you cancel more than 21 days before departure, and 100% if you cancel 21 days or fewer before departure.

African Safari Experts
Cancellations must be done in writing, and the company must acknowledge receipt of the cancellation. If you don’t join the safari, join it after departure, or leave before it ends, you won’t receive a refund.

Some safari operators also have specific lodge cancellation policies.
