Is this tour only in German and not English?
Tour Details
- Sunway SafarisOperator•Written January 2026
  Yes, this would be operated in English.
- Sunway SafarisOperator•Written January 2026
  You are quite correct the BTa14 departing on 17th May is a German language departure and as such only suitable for fluent German speakers. All other departures are conducted in English, let me know which departure might interest you most and I will check availability for you.
- Sunway SafarisOperator•Written January 2026
  Small groups (max. 12 international travellers). Two professional Sunway tour leaders (registered field guides). Guaranteed departures. Solo Travelers welcome. Comfortable, well-maintained vehicles. Over 31 years' experience in African travel. Commitment to responsible tourism.

  It says that it is in German- why is that then?
- Sunway SafarisOperator•Written January 2026
  On a Sunway safari you will travel with 2 qualified field guides (Field Guides Association of SA). Two guides as crew, not a guide and a driver, means interesting trips with maximum knowledge and information. On German departures one of the tour leaders may be one German-speaking translator alongside one qualified guide, so you still benefit from expert guidance while enjoying the tour in your preferred language. Our guides have a passion for Africa, her people and wildlife, and they love nothing more than sharing their knowledge with you.
- Sunway SafarisOperator•Written January 2026
  BTa14 tour: AU$ 6,095 per person. Local Payment: US$300 per person, paid directly to the guide on arrival. Single supplement (optional): AU$ 1,485. Excludes: Flights, visas, insurance, drinks, optional activities, some meals (as noted), and tips for guides.
- Sunway SafarisOperator•Written January 2026
  If you'll be 65 years or older at the time of travel, we require a declaration by you confirming your fitness for the tour.
