You might also have a change of vehicle and adventure crew (Tour Leader and Driver.) Although it might sound a bit daunting, please be assured that your vehicle will be the same standard and your adventure crew are very experienced in dealing with these changes to make it as smooth as possible. All adventure crew is committed to giving the best possible service but because all have their own style, own special recipes, and own passion with regards to culture, fauna and flora, geology etc. having a change of crew will broaden your experience on the trip immensely.

• We all have different spending habits, please take that into consideration when planning and budgeting your trip.
• There are many opportunities on all the tours to buy souvenirs – you might want to spoil yourself with some unique memorabilia.
• Drinking water is not included in the tour so you will need to budget for water. Water is drinkable from taps in South Africa and Namibia but for other countries, it is recommended to buy bottled water. A litre of water costs about 1 USD in most countries.
• You might become peckish on the long driving days and there will be plenty opportunity to
  stock up on local snacks.
• On our accommodated tours you will be responsible for your own lunches (budget US$10 to US$15 depending on whether you buy a take-away or opt for a sit-down lunch. When visiting Zimbabwe, budget US$15 to US$20 per lunch).

• In restaurants, the recommended percentage to tip is 10% of your meal price.

For most nationalities, the fees are US$50 for Zimbabwe varies from US$30 to US$80. These visas can ONLY be paid in USD. No local or any other currency will be accepted.
• It is best to stock up on cash on arrival at the airport. ATM’s are mostly accessible for easy cash withdrawals, but there might be times when we enter rural areas with no facilities or there might be incredibly long queues on pay days. Your adventure crew will advise accordingly.
• Consider taking more money rather than less, as you do not want to spoil your trip by constantly feeling short of funds. Emergencies are rare, but it is still a good idea is to have an emergency fund available, kept separate from the rest of your funds. We suggest a minimum of $150 USD.
• Have an extra bank card available and keep it separate from your other cards for emergencies.

• On our Premium Accommodated Adventure Tours, you have access to a personal safe on the vehicle whilst on tour.

• Please do not bring Traveller cheques to Africa, as they are not readily accepted.
• Visa/Plus/Maestro/chip debit cards are accepted by most places, while MasterCard/Cirrus cards might not work everywhere.
• We highly recommend that if you hold a MasterCard, you obtain a prepaid Visa Travel Card prior to departure and travel with both. This could also be useful should something unforeseen happen to one of your cards during your travels. Your adventure crew will advise you on payment options.

• All countries have their own currency that can be obtained locally by foreign exchange or ATM withdrawals if available, except for Zimbabwe which trade only in USD.
• Your adventure crew will inform you where you can exchange money throughout the tour. Occasional power outages are common all over Africa, so you might not be able to withdraw cash at ATM’s along the way and it is best to withdraw money at the main centres or airports.
• The easiest foreign currency to exchange for any of the local currencies is the US Dollar, British Pound and Euro. Please note that US notes should not be older than the year 2009 and should not have any markings on it. A mix of big and small notes will work well. To exchange money, you get a better rate for bigger notes but if you want to buy something small and pay in a foreign currency then smaller notes will work best as change might not be always available. Currency exchange rates fluctuate daily so it is best to follow websites, such as www.oanda.com for current exchange rates.
• Please note that only local currency is accepted in local super markets and restaurants etc.
• Foreign currencies can be used to pay for most activities and can be used at local street markets.

• Tipping is an expected and common practice all over Africa, but it remains a personal choice to tip or not.
• Tipping remains a way of expressing your appreciation to the people who assisted you on tour, including your adventure crew.
• When tipping, we suggest that the whole group plan together on how and when tips will be handed over. To ensure anonymity all tips can be placed in an envelope and handed to the specific person as a gift. This method allows for a friendly and appreciative interaction between the group and adventure crew or local guides. We suggest tipping US$3-5 per person per crew member or local guide per day.
• The accepted guideline for tipping waiters is 10 % of the total value of your meal.

• All countries have their own travel advisories and provide regular and updated information on foreign destinations.
• Check your government’s advisories for their latest travel information before departure.
• Sometimes unforeseen situations develop which might compromise the safety of the group. If deemed necessary, routes will be altered to ensure your safety. Your adventure crew has the authority to amend or cancel any part of the tour itinerary if deemed necessary, for your personal safety.
• Most cities visited are safe during the day, but we do not recommend wandering alone at night. When going out, make sure that you are in small groups and take taxis to and from restaurants at night.

• Your safety is our priority. Our itineraries are designed with your safety and well-being in
  mind.
• Your tour leader and driver know the countries visited and will advise on potential dangers and the safety precautions to be taken.
• From experience, the safest possible way to travel Africa is together in a group, under the responsible leadership of your adventure crew. This also applies to national parks and other areas where wildlife roam. However, it is your responsibility to exercise common sense and caution at all time.
• For your own safety, keep your money and valuable documents in a money belt around your waist or around your neck, underneath your clothing. Leave your valuable jewellery at home. On the Premium Overland Safari Vehicle, a small personal safe is fitted to each personal storage box next to your seat to store your valuables. Keep the code private! Most hotels, lodges and guest houses will have safety deposit boxes available.

• Insect:
  • Africa has its share of insects. Mosquitos are more commonly found in areas with a high rainfall.
  • Some precautions to take against insect bites:
    • Wear protective clothing, long sleeve shirts and trousers at night.
    • Wear natural colours, khaki or olive. Bright colours tend to attract insects.
    • Use insect repellents.
    • Your adventure crew will advise about any other precautions that you need to take.
• Sun:
  • Africa is the continent of the sun. Throughout the year, it is advisable to use sunscreen and a hat when outdoors.
• Hydration:
  • Drink water! It is important to stay hydrated, especially in extreme heat. You will be advised if water quality is not for human consumption. If it comes out of a tap, it is not necessarily safe.
  • Bottled water is readily available.
• Diarrhoea:
  • It is normal for people travelling overseas to get an upset stomach due to a change of climate and food. This usually pass after a few days after you have acclimatized.

• Your feedback is extremely important to us! We work hard to ensure that your experience in Africa is enjoyable, safe, and hassle-free so please let us know if there is anything we can or could do to make the experience even better.
