is this a self drive, or is this a guided tour? or is this partly self drive? meals included: should be mentioned with accomodation, but it doesn't mention anything? Do you have to speak german, or is understanding enough, but can you address guide (if any?) in English?

This is a self-drive rental car trip without a guide. You will be driving yourself from location to location. A guide is only included if you book optional activities such as a safari tour—those are guided and conducted in English. So, you don't need to speak German to enjoy the experience. Regarding meals, it depends on the hotel. At the moment, breakfast is included at every stop except for the last one. We will clearly list the meals included with each accommodation in your travel documents.
