Any chance June will open up again? Looking to travel then for my birthday.

It's always possible that space will open up, but not particularly likely in this case. However, we do have a June 12, 2026 departure that is showing availability if you wish to look at options for next year!

what are the "additional front costs" mean?

The additional charges would include the intra-vacation flights and taxes.

what are upfront addisional cost mean

The additional upfront costing is for the internal airfare that is included in the trip so you will have two flights. One from Kruger to Victoria Falls and another from Victoria Falls in Johannesburg.

Is there a single room supplement and if so how much is it?

The solo supplement does vary depending on the month. It varies between £662 and £762 total extra.

The trip was excellent overall. Our tour director Margaret George was brilliant, knowledgeable and exceptional director in total control. The drivers were Maxwell and Joe. Their demeanor skills and friendliness was beyond reproach. Accommodation was very good. 1 or 2 of the hotels are in need of updating. Meals provided were good. The tours achieved their aims. Big 5 were seen. Would recommend it. One note of caution on home bound flights please arrange to be in Johannesburg early. You may be pushed to get through to your flight in 3 hoursShow more
