Meals
We provides breakfasts and dinners on each trip. Each itinerary states what meals are included on that tour. If a meal is not included we will stop at suitable places where something can be purchased to eat at a reasonable cost. This means we have more time for our schedule, and you get another local African experience.

All meals included are generally supplied by the hotel or lodge where we stay or at selected local restaurants. Every effort is made to cater for special dietary requirements, however due to local supplies this is sometimes not possible for everyone. If you have a particular requirement please contact our office personally to ensure we can arrange suitable meals for you.

We design our tours to give you the opportunity to experience the diverse cultures of Africa. We ask that you are respectful of the places you visit and the people you meet. We support local communities by sharing the prosperity tourism is bringing to Africa. Our small groups also mean that you have more opportunity to experience local cultures.
