The Local Payment is used for paying for local services such as hotels and transport, park entrances, etc. Can I pay the Local Payment before I leave? No, as the money is used to pay for local services these cannot be paid elsewhere.

“. In the past, my travel groups have asked the local GAP tour guide to keep a running total of what he spends this money on, just like any other itemized list of expenses. In all cases, there was a small amount left over, which we spent on a nice dinner or split amongst ourselves. No GAP tour guide I’ve ever travelled with has turned down such a request. It’s good business and gives the travellers peace of mind.
