Hi, it is unclear to me as to whether a sleeping bag is required or recommended , given that this is an accomodated traveler trip.
Also the meet time at the hotel on the first morning is not stated. I am trying to determine whether to pay the premium to stay at meeting hotel or not.
can anyone help?
Thanks





Re: Road to Zanibar
Hi Helen,
Thanks for your questions.
You do not require a sleeping bag on this tour since all bedding is provided.
The tour begins early on day 1 so it is advisable to arrive the day before day 1 and either book into the departure hotel the following evening (recommended) or book independently into a nearby hotel before making your way to the departure hotel by taxi or shuttle bus early on day 1.
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Brendan

Thanks Brendon, any more clarity than "early" would be appreciated.
Re: Road to Zanibar
Hi Helen,
Sorry, that's not very clear is it!
8.30am is the meeting time on day 1 before the tour heads to lake Nakuru. If you catch the absolute earliest arriving flight into Nairobi on Day 1 then you can normally make the meeting; however we do not recommend this since any holdups might mean that you miss the start of the tour and unfortunately time waits for no man on a group tour when the show must go on...
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Brendan
Re: Road to Zanibar
this is certainly much more helpful, am arriving the day before so will not miss out, but staying at a different hotel than the starting point.
Thanks
Re: Road to Zanibar
Hi Helen, finally, did you do your trip (The Road to Zanzibar). I wanted to have a feed back about the tour. :-)
Thanks
