  • H

    Heather

    Asked on February 3rd, 2026

    What kind of accommodations are possible for, and how much is the single supplement?

    Accommodation
    Single supplement
    • Acacia Adventure HolidaysOperatorWritten February 2026

      Accommodation on tour is simple tourist class properties - most of them independently owned and managed. If you are travelling alone on tour we would place you with another solo passenger of the same sex in a twin share room. I am afraid we do not offer a single room supplement.

  • K

    Kathleen

    Asked on January 31st, 2023

    could you please explain the visa requirement.

    Visa
    • Acacia Adventure HolidaysOperatorWritten March 2023

      We are not visa experts so it is best to check the information directly with the relevant embassies to get correct details. But it looks like you will need: Tanzania (and Zanzibar): eVisa, Malawi: eVisa, Zambia: eVisa, Zimbabwe: eVisa, South Africa: official Visa (not just an eVisa).

  • J

    Jessica

    Asked on November 20th, 2017

    What is the Adventure Pass?

    Tour Details
    • 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.
