    Tony

    Asked on October 29th, 2024

    My husband and I are interested in booking this tour but I can not find details of the accomodation that is available. He is a fit 72 year old and I'm 68 and so do not want basic accomodation - ensuite always required in hotels. We fly home from Johannesburg on the 28th March at 19.45, so need to know that we would be dropped off at the airport in the afternoon.
