PITCHING AND PACKING UP TENTS

GROUP PARTICIPATION

Although our tour is fully-catered and our cook will arrange the meals, we do encourage a level of participation from our tour members. Past experience with group tours indicates that a minimal level of participation or assistance with the preparation and clean-up of meals, the set-up and pack-up of daily camps, not only expedites our departure and maximises our time at the destination, however also proves to be a successful bonding experience for the group.
