      Joel

      TravelerWritten February 2024

      What are the luggage restrictions per person on the overland tour bus? What are the suitcase sizes, types, and weights allowed? We have CPAPS in their own cases which are medical needs. Is there extra storage space available for medical equipment?

    • Acacia Adventure HolidaysOperatorWritten February 2024

      Vehicle lockers measure: Height 280mm; Width 550mm; Depth 700mm. If the tour is not full, there might be spare space. Regarding CPAPs, ensure they are battery operated as some properties cannot guarantee overnight power due to lack of infrastructure or generator limitations.

    Asked on December 27th, 2023

    May you please provide what the sleeping arrangements will be? May you please provide more information in regards to accommodation stayed.

    Accommodation
    • Acacia Adventure HolidaysOperatorWritten December 2023

      The Cape Town to Kenya 41 days tour used simple independently managed properties, mostly twin share. There are 4 places where you will be camping, two are in Namibia where no practical alternative exists, one is in Botswana where we stay in a pre-erected camp in the Okavango, and finally in Tanzania at the Serengeti and Ngorongoro Crater where again no practical alternative exists. We provide all the camping equipment except a pillow.

    Asked on November 20th, 2017

    What is the Adventure Pass?

    Other
    • Acacia Adventure HolidaysOperatorWritten November 2017

      Every Acacia Overland tour has an Adventure Pass which is paid to your tour leader in Africa at the beginning of the tour (or pre-paid by arrangement prior to your tour). This is separate and in addition to the Tour Price, and covers selected park entries, activities and excursions along the way where payment goes directly to the supplier to ensure local suppliers benefit directly from the income.
