Limited Participation vs No Participation – what does it mean?
Limited participation: Guides will shop and prepare meals and provide assistance but travellers will put up their tent (on camping safaris), help pack away in the morning, or do things such as chopping tomatoes for a salad or stirring a pot. The group does the dishes on a rotation basis. Sunway’s Camping, Expedition and Affordable Accommodated Safaris require limited participation.
Non Participation: Breakfasts and evening meals will generally be at your lodge accommodation with your guides shopping, preparing and serving lunches. No assistance is required from the group, but where portering is not available expect to take you bags to and from you room. Sunway’s Classic Journeys are non-participation safaris.
Private Safaris
Sunway can offer private safaris. Price wise it works out best with a minimum group size of 6, however we will quote based on smaller groups. There are no age limits. Please contact us if you are interested in a private safari.
Solo Travellers
No supplement applies if a single traveller is willing to share with a same-gender traveller on Camping & Accommodated safaris. A supplement is payable for those wanting their own tent/room or those booking on a “Classic Journey” safari.
