    Neil

    Asked on June 25th, 2025

    can i just check if there is an additional charge for a solo traveller ? Can you book additional days staying at the same hotels before and after the tour ?

    Accommodation
    Single supplement
    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten June 2025

      Since you will be traveling alone, let us know if you/someone would be happy sharing with another solo traveller of the same gender on the tour free of charge. If you would prefer to add a single supplement, we can do so for an additional $1549.00 (USD). We are also able to assist with pre-nights should you require it with your booking at an additional cost (that will be based on a solo room).

    • N

      Neil

      TravelerWritten June 2025

      what happens if i wish to share a room to avoid the single room rate but if there isnt another single guest of the same sex on the tour, would i then be charged the higher rate? and could i specify that they must be a nonsmoker as i cant stand smoking especially if it was in the room ?

    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten June 2025

      If you opt for a twin room and then no other solo travellers of the same gender joined the tour, you would be allocated a private room by default. However this is not something to be relied on so if you prefer to guarantee a single supplement we recommend that you pay for it in advance to avoid disappointment.

      TravelerWritten June 2025

      will i need the e-visa for vietnam in advance or is this arranged at the boarder? i am on a new zealand passport so dont need visa for china part of the tour.

    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten June 2025

      Generally it's best to get an evisa in advance to avoid any delays.

    Age Range
    Tour Details
    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten April 2025

      The minimum age required is 12 years old, and the maximum exception we can do is if the child is 11 years and 9 months as of the first day of the tour. We are unable to make any further exceptions to our age requirements.
