    Kim

    Asked on August 18th, 2024

    Would like to know about accommodations. Is there triple share?

    Accommodation
    • Hunza ExplorersOperatorWritten August 2024

      Some hotels do not offer triple beds in their rooms. They can accommodate an extra mattress. Would you prefer an extra mattress or three separate beds?

    • K

      Kim

      TravelerWritten August 2024

      Are accommodations all hotels? If it is an extra mattress it will still be on a bedframe?
