Do you have 2 private rooms for the Sept 26 departure? What is the extra cost?

At the moment, we don't have a departure on September 26, but we do have a very close option on September 27, 2026. And great news as well—private rooms are currently available for this departure, with a single supplement of +$1,075.00 per person. Please keep in mind that pricing and availability can change, so we recommend securing your spot online when you're ready. The price shared is in USD as a general guide, but if you're booking from another country, the final amount will automatically display in your local currency during checkout.

Could you please provide more information on the itinerary, the inclusions, and the type of accommodation used on this tour?

Accommodation is in comfortable 3 and 4 star hotels and safari lodges, twin share with the same gender or with the option to choose a private room upgrade at an additional cost, subject to availability. Meals, which include 16 breakfasts, 3 lunches, and 9 dinners, are provided throughout the tour.

What is the max number of participants for this tour?

For all main Expat Explore tours, the maximum number of participants is 48 travellers. This ensures a comfortable group size, providing a more personalised experience with the tour leader and allowing smooth coordination during visits to attractions.

What is the single supplement? Do you offer triple share?

The single supplement is the additional fee applied if a traveller requests a private room instead of sharing with another traveller. Our tours are primarily based on twin share accommodation, meaning two travellers of the same gender share a room with separate beds. If you are travelling solo and do not wish to pay the single supplement, you will be paired with another traveller of the same gender. For groups of three or an odd number of travellers, one traveller may be paired with someone of the same gender to complete the twin share arrangement. Please note that we do not offer triple share rooms.

  Does that mean that 41 people are already signed up?
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written November 2025
  Our group tours usually have a maximum of around 48–50 travellers, including the driver and tour leader. This particular trip forms part of a larger main itinerary, so you'll be joining travellers who are continuing on another leg of the journey where most of the itinerary overlaps. If the website shows 7 spots left, this means the allocated capacity for this specific departure is nearly full.
