Short on Time? Reduce the safari component

All our sample tours on this website are merely suggestions as we specialise in tailor-making itineraries. So feel free to ask for different accommodation or to adapt the tour as you wish.

This is a relatively expensive self drive tour, both because of its length and also its safari component with two contrasting game reserves. So you can reduce both the cost and the number of nights by taking out one of these safaris, if you wish.

On the other hand, we can also easily upgrade the accommodation if you prefer. (Or we can make some downward adjustments if you need to trim the budget.)
