    Asked on May 2nd, 2022

    Is this correct that it seems impossible to book this for one person alone?

    • Adventure JourneysOperator•Written May 2022

      We require a minimum of 2 travelers to operate. We can operate that tour (as a private tour only for you) applying a supplement of USD 340.00 for June 13th, 2022. We can search for another group tours running at that time so you can have the opportunity of joining them without covering the supplement.
