Orientation
At the start of your tour you will have an arrival orientation, which will provide you with further information about what to expect for the duration of your programme. This is also a great opportunity for you to raise any questions that you may have and find out more about the tour and the volunteer projects that you will be taking part in.
Accommodation and Meals
While in Kruger National Park you will be camping in dome safari tents (camping equipment will be provided). Accommodation while in Ezulwini, Swaziland will be in a backpacker lodge in a dorm room. While in Tofo, Mozambique, you will stay in beach style reeded dorms. With each type of accommodation, a mattress, sheet, pillow and pillowcase will be provided but you will need to bring your own sleeping bag.
All meals will be provided throughout the tour and participants will share the cooking duties on a relaxed rotational basis. Cooking facilities will be communal and quite basic and food will be purchased during a weekly food shop. Generally breakfast will consist of cereals and toast, for lunch you will have sandwiches and salad and for dinner you will have a cooked meal.
Please let us know if you have any special dietary requirements and your tour guide will cater for you as best as possible.
