    Rachael

    Asked on May 14th, 2025

    Does the tour ever get canceled because of heavy rain/flooding? I am traveling alone, is the price for sharing? Can I share? Or is there an additional single supplement fee?

    Accommodation
    Single supplement
    Tour Details
    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten May 2025

      While it's rare, there can be disruptions due to extreme weather like flooding. That said, our tours don't typically get cancelled — but if conditions are severe, our team on the ground will assess the situation and inform you well in advance if any changes or cancellations are necessary. The price displayed on our site is based on twin-share. As a solo traveller, you will be matched with a same-gender roommate. If you prefer your own room, you can opt for a single supplement at an additional cost.

    Greg

    Asked on April 15th, 2025

    is the advertised price for singles or twin share? i am a single

    Price / Availability
    Single supplement
    • G

      Greg

      TravelerWritten April 2025

      you haven't indicated if the fare is single, i don't have a partner to travel with

    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten April 2025

      The advertised price is based on twin-share accommodation, which means you would be paired with another solo traveler of the same gender. If you prefer to have your own room, a single supplement can be arranged at an additional cost.
