For the few days we are staying in tents during the East Africa In-Depth tour, are there actual bed ensuite baths?

Tented accommodation will be in simple furnished tents on wooden platforms, with shared bathroom facilities. All tents are large, walk-in tents with mosquito-netting, two beds and provided linens.

Are the tents permanent?, mattresses?, cots?, facilities?

Camping in Kenya is truly an adventure. You will be able to get off the beaten track to get a first-hand experience of the beautiful wilderness and nature. While camping, we stay at designated campsites inside of and nearby the national reserves and parks. These campsites generally are very basic, and we carry tents to pitch at the public campsites. The campsite in Samburu are basic - being a public camp run by the local council. You will have no electricity, only gas lanterns in the evening, access to shared bathrooms with long drop toilets and cold showers. These first 4 nights camping will be in dome tents. At the Masai Mara, we will stay in a simple permanent tented camp. These are walk-in 'safari tents' with single beds & mattresses. There is no electricity for lights or charging batteries. The facilities here are basic, though there are flushing toilets and hot water (when the boiler is working). All tents are pitched for you, meals are prepared and served and the washing up is done by G Adventures staff. Tented accommodation will be in simple furnished tents on wooden platforms, with shared bathroom facilities. All tents are large, walk-in tents with mosquito-netting, two beds and provided linens.

When is the best time of year to do this.... My husband has Parkinsons but is reasonably fit aside this, is the gorilla trekking the only heavy walking as he could sit that out

The gorilla trekking is a large part of this tour, but if your husband is unable to attend we may be able to make an alternative for him. First and foremost, we would need to ensure that his condition does not affect his participation in the tour, so we may require further information about it if you do decide to proceed with this trip.

  The gorilla trekking is a large part of this tour, but if your husband is unable to attend we may be able to make an alternative for him. First and foremost, we would need to ensure that his condition does not affect his participation in the tour, so we may require further information about it if you do decide to proceed with this trip.

  he is fit enough for the tour (no tremors) just the gorrilla trek maybe to exhausting, also depends on the weather to walk in.... will speak with his consultant about this.... I am not ready to book just yet.... i would need to book international flights etc to coincide... is february a good time for weather?
- G AdventuresOperator•Written October 2024
  The best time to visit Uganda is between December to February and, June to August, which is during the Dry seasons. Wildlife viewing is at its peak. Primate walks in the forest are a big part of any safari in Uganda. The habitat of rainforests is, by default, very wet, and one can't avoid rain completely.
