  • S

    Sandy

    Asked on August 13th, 2023

    Please describe the camping set up. Are these permanent tented camps that have an attached bathroom? Or is it a tent that is set up when we arrive with a common toilet facility some distance from the tent?

    Accommodation
    • S

      Sandy

      TravelerWritten August 2023

      In case you have to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, are you going to be wandering around the campsite alone, looking for a toilet? that wouldn't seem very safe.

    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten August 2023

      For the camping sections of this trip, there are options to upgrade which have private bathrooms inside. This will apply to all campsites apart from the Serengeti where no upgrades will be available but is flagged as a safe spot by the rangers. The shared washrooms are modern eco-friendly sanitary washrooms, and the camping grounds are well-lit.

    Does that mean that their is a chance that some people will not be able to see them?

    Tour Details
    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten February 2023

      It means that eight people per day can only see each gorilla family. No one will miss visiting the gorillas because there are so many families.

    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten September 2022

      What is the difference between that tour and this one? Are both tours offered in September 2023?

    • K

      Kate

      TravelerWritten September 2022

      Is there any hidden additional costs to this trip such as Canadian Mandatory supplements of Mandatory Adventure Pass? Finally, does this overland trip offer an adventure accommodated tour or is it only possible in a camping tour?

    • Intrepid TravelOperatorWritten October 2022

      The costs you see outlined on the site are inclusive of all necessary passes, transport and included activities. The only things you would have to consider beyond the shown price would be visa costs, and travel to and from the start and end of the trip. This trip is only available as a basix camping trip. As such, the accommodations are the campsites noted on the itinerary pages.
