HOW TO BOOK

We recommend booking well in advance by sending a non-refundable deposit of 25% of the tour price with a minimum deposit of $250 per person. Some of the tours and ground arrangements may require a higher deposit of up to 50% to meet local tour operator’s booking conditions. These details will be provided on confirmation.

Any verbal quote given is an estimate only of the price which will be subject to advice on confirmation of the reservation.


PRICE GUARANTEE
