Yes, extra nights can be arranged based on availability at the chosen accommodation.

What is the accommodation type during the trip?

Is there an option for solo travelers?

Yes, solo travelers can book a single supplement for private accommodation.

Is he able to qualify for this tour? What time of year if best for game?

We do not have an upper age limit, but I have highlighted below some things to consider: We drive in safari trucks which are open sided when the canvas sides are rolled up. There are long drives of 5hrs+ up to 9 hrs on Days 2, 3, 5, 9, 10 & 12. Houseboat will have ladder steps so need to be aware and able to manoeuvre. Will need to be able to get in and out of small boats for any of the boat trips on days 2-4. Day 3 includes a 2 hr walk. Rest of the trip will be mostly game drives so as long as you are able to get in and out of these vehicles which have high steps that will be fine. Passengers should also advise the tour leader on arrival of any walking restrictions or need to be near to the toilet block when camping.

Our tour guide Bibi was fabulous - incredibly well organised, super knowledgeable, an incredible tracker of wildlife with bionic eyesight, and a fantastic storyteller. I feel we completely hit the jackpot having him as a tour leader! We saw incredible wildlife and part thanks to his tracking skills including a leopard and her two cubs. He also kept his entertained every evening with incredible tales around the campfire. So much fun.Show more
