7 Day Land Tour

Price

$1600 per person based on double occupancy

Tips

Several of you have asked about the tipping for the bus driver and guide. This is done at the end of the tour (anytime during the last day). A standard guideline is $2 – $3 per day, per person for the Bus Driver and $4 – $5 per day, per person for the guide. If you feel they did a good job and would like to thank them, this is the perfect way to do so. As with any service, tipping is at your discretion.

Final Payment: Final payment is due three months before the tour departure date.
