ACTIVITIES

GAME VIEWING

Pre-booked game viewing activities will be organised through Go Wild Safaris and InTo Africa Safaris depending on the lodges in which delegates are staying. The Parks authorities in Botswana are currently reviewing Park Entrance Fees and prices for 2001 are yet to be confirmed. There is a differential pricing structure for drives and cruises offered by operators at the different lodges. Park entry is by four wheel drive and boat only.

NOTE: Pre-booking is strongly advised for at least one cruise and one drive since the number of places on any day will be limited. Booking forms will be available soon.

AFTERNOON GAME DRIVES & CRUISES
Game drives and cruises with qualified guides will depart the lodges prior to 3 pm each afternoon and return before 6 pm. A packed lunch and drink will be included. Cost is based on 2000 prices and projected Park Entry fee. Note that this includes guide, food, vehicle, and park entry. In the event that the Parks authorities increase the Park Entry fee you will elect between an appropriate surcharge or refund.
