      The Group size for this tour is Max 22 and number of booked passengers can vary by departure. Transportation on this tour is Overland vehicle, and 4x4 safari vehicle at the parks. Accommodation on this trip is mainly in two-person canvas dome tents with camping mattresses supplied. Campsites do have facilities, but they usually aren't to the same standard you would find in Western countries. For example, the bathroom facilities can be very basic. Toilet paper is rarely provided, and shower facilities can be as simple as a hose pipe spurting out cold water. Wild camps have no facilities at all.
