What Is Tour Fare and Local Fare?
The full tour price is made up of the tour fare, payable prior to departure in South African Rand, as well as a local payment, which is paid to the guides on departure of the tour. Most of the expeditions require that the local payment be paid in US$ cash. Please note that the local payment is not a food kitty. Contact our office or email us for more details. All camp meals are included in the cost. The local payment is collected to cover the park fees and excursions (normally charged in US$) that has been included into the tour cost. By keeping these charges in US$ any unnecessary surcharges can be avoided due to exchange rate fluctuations.
