Breakfast might cost USD 5 to 10, lunch USD 5 to 15, and dinner USD 12 to 25. For additional activities, we suggest having access to an extra US$500 for emergencies or unexpected expenses.

    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten August 2016

      Unfortunately we are unable to give visa advice due to the vast number of nationalities which our customers represent. Some nationalities can travel freely over borders, where others require advance permission to enter. There are also changes in requirements from time to time. We recommend checking your local embassy or consulate's website for the latest up to date information.
