The vehicle you travel in
Not “a 4×4”. These exact vehicles, with their year, their specification and their own price. Ask any other operator which car is coming and see what you get.
Upgrade
Fly instead of drive
The road transfer on day one can be replaced with a Airbus Helicopters H130 T2 charter, which turns a five-hour drive into roughly forty-five minutes — and gives you the reserve from the air on the way in.
Charter is quoted per trip on this route. Landing fees at the airstrip are extra and vary — we will tell you the figure for your specific date.
