Accommodation
Enjoy comfortable lodge accommodation.
On this tour, you will sleep at comfortable 2-3 star lodges. In some areas we use permanent safari tents which are equipped with beds. Rooms usually offer en-suite bathrooms and are twin share. If you are a solo traveler (or odd number traveller) then you will need to book a single room as sharing with other guests is not an option.
Remember to bring your own towel, as it may not always be provided.
If your trip visits East Africa, be prepared for more rustic accommodations compared to Southern Africa. You might find yourself going without hot showers, sharing bathrooms, spending long hours on the road, and needing to buy your own drinking water. Despite these challenges, the charm of the local people and the stunning natural beauty, make it all worthwhile.
This tour offers both accommodation and camping options. If you prefer to sleep in a tent, we recommend choosing the camping option. To view details on the camping option please click the link below. (Both campers and lodgers will travel together in the same overland vehicle.)
